You know the fact that my sister and I barely survived our birth, the fact we're still here 40 years after the fact, especially with all of our combined health issues, is pretty damn amazing.

After Carrie finally got her CP diagnosis they gave her to the age of six. She almost died in 2010 after a grand mal seizure and again in 2011 after getting H1N1 and having a trach put in.

And we're still here.

One more year and we'll have outlived our father.

So here's to my godmother who insisted my mother go back to the hospital, even after they sent my mother home telling her she couldn't possibly be in labor yet because it was 2 months early. Here's to the doctor who took over on that second visit and took control of the emergency C-section and remained our doctor until we moved out of state. Here's to everyone who made it so we got this far.

And to my mother who has fought with everything in her, sacrificing her own health and devoting her entire life to a child who will never be able to vocalize the word 'mom.' The reason we're still here, still together since conception, is because how hard she's fought and still fights for my sister

4 decades. Hell of an achievement.

i just realized that my shirt that had all of gus' nicknames from psych in the shape of a giant pineapple didn't survive the fire and nothing has upset me more. well no material possession has upset me more than the realization that shirt is now gone. it was perfect.

in case y'all didn't know psych is my favorite show. and i am drunkenly watching it right now because i love it so much

get back from a quick vacation and there's nothing like it to realize how dissatisfied you are with your day job

also found out that there's a pretty significant printing error in my book so that's fun. and gotta thank all the people that supported my stuff while i was gone and without internet

thanks to those that supported me, i'll be sending out personal thank yous soon as the caffeine hits

The best thing I ever did for myself was getting away from the mainstream superhero aspect of comics. it’s really, really exhausting to see the same discourse every day on my dash- like which batboy has it the worst!!! is Bruce Wayne a better dad than Oliver queen!!!! shut up. give me a break. I’m going to reread issue 63 of Hellblazer and watch johnstantine get stoned with Zatanna

vertigo is much tinier and yeah, that means a heck of a lot less content, but it’s altogether less circular arguing and more memes and reading lists. I DO have get unfollowed when I say Billy batson headcanons are stupid or Bruce x John is for ppl who don’t read comics but I’ll take that over fighting over which dick Grayson ship is superior

"if i was orpheus i would simply not turn around" yes you would. if you were orpheus and you loved eurydice, you would. to love someone is to turn around. to love someone is to look at them. whichever version of the myth — he hears her stumble, he can't hear her at all, he thinks he's been tricked — he turns around because he loves her. that's why it's a tragedy. because he loves her enough to save her. because he loves her so much he can't save her. because he will always, always turn around. "if i was orpheus i would simply —" you wouldn't be orpheus. you wouldn't be brave enough to walk into the underworld and save the person you love. be serious

Screw terfs n all but are you normal about transgirls who don't want to medically transition? Are you normal about transguys with boobs who don't wear binders? Are you normal about the trans people who only want to socially transition because that's what's right for them? Are you normal about the transgirls with beards? Are you normal about the transguys who love their curves? Screw terfs, but are you normal about trans people?

Important Edit!!!!!

first you have to remember that the first disco ball was painstakingly put together by hand from nothing but an idea and lots of intricately cut glass and bandaids and then you have to think about the experience of being under a disco ball for the very first time, bathed in reflections of an era that has not yet come to past, and finally you end up wondering what else there is around you that has yet to be unearthed by something with so much as a silly name
