Hey everyone,

I’ve been pretty absent lately - so I wanted to explain myself. I’m sorry to all the people who have tagged me in stuff or sent me asks - I love you all, I’m just lost in the sauce at the moment.

A few weeks ago I decided it was time to start the huge task of typing up my writing journals/diaries (beginning with 2007). Doing it for many reasons, but not least of all, for the purposes of preservation. I’m so old, the paper is turning brown already lol gods help me!

Consequently, I’ve been absorbed in the past and all that entails - big emotions, big revelations, transformation. It’s all positive, just *a lot*.

I’m especially pleased it’s brought me back to writing poetry again, for the first time in a decade or so. I’m also going to pick up a guitar and resume tinkering; I quit in 2008; I’d say I’m going to be starting over, but I never got that far in the first place.

Speaking of music, I got my hands on the playlists I used to listen to at that time from my ancient old laptop (25 years old if it’s a day - and the CD/DVD drive still works perfectly - amazing) and I’ve been immersing myself in long forgotten favourites. Yesterday I had another Shit, I forgot this perfect (to me) song exists moment, and have been ‘poking the bruise’ with it since yesterday.

The Clocks by Urthboy feat Mark Pearl.

Anyway - All this to say - I’m fine. Emotional. Going through it. A bit withdrawn. But definitely changing for the better.

I hope you all are well and/or taking care of yourselves.

I’m still around so if you need me, just drop me a DM or add me on Discord - I use it more. The same handle as here 🤍

Happy pride month to my dad. When I came out as bi to him, this man googled what it ment, look at me and said "ohh. Yeah. You get that from me. You'd have far more siblings of I only shaged women." And went right back to his work emails.

Just saw a post asking how tall people are and now I want to make it a poll. Apologies to people in the fringe height categories, you do not get specifics.

I had to consult a chart for this

The other night husband and I were watching a documentary about the yeti where they were doing DNA analysis of samples of supposed yeti fur, and every one of them came back as bears.

Anyway, the next night we watched a thing about some pig man who is supposed to live in Vermont. People said it had claws and a pig nose but walked upright like a man. Now, I happen to know that sideshows used to shave bears and present them as pig men. So every piece of evidence they gave of this monster sounds to me like a bear with mange.

So now the running joke in our house is that everything is bears. Aliens? Bears. Loch Ness monster? Bear. Every cryptozoological mystery is just a very crafty bear.

Bears. They’re everywhere. Be wary. Anyone or anything could be a bear.

Disney suing Midjourney for copyright infringement is one of those things - which bastard do I hate more?

NGL I wish they’d both go up in flames, but I think it’s Midjourney.

Spin this wheel first and then this wheel second to generate the title of a YA fantasy novel!

(If the second wheel lands on an option ending with a plus sign, spin it again)

Share what you got!

Thanks for the warning.

I hate cultural pressure restricting clothing. Imagine living in a world where absolutely nobody can give you shit about what you do or don't feel like wearing today. Like you could just go out in nothing but flip-flops and a thong one day because you didn't feel like wearing clothes, and the next day you're going out in full niqab because you woke up this morning and thought "hmm. no thank you. nobody gets to see even a glimpse of me today."
