I have a few editing slots open!

If you’d like to work with me please contact via email or Twitter (same username) DMs! And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to send an ask! 

It’s probably also worth noting I won’t judge you for what you’ve written, or blast you all over the internet for writing [insert thing that’s bad irl here]. Fiction is not reality and I believe that strongly, including in original works. That said, I am not a sensitivity reader so cannot help if you want sensitivity reading. 

If you see this on your feed, please give me a reblog for extra visibility! Thanks!

How deep does the hole go?

Stop vilifying adults that live with their parents.

We’re still deep in one of the worst economic recessions of modern times. For many of us its not a choice but a requirement in order to survive. For many of us we have disabilities that make finding accommodation that suit our needs a lot harder and a lot more expensive.

Many of us pay into the household. Many of us are trapped in abusive households because we don’t have the means to leave. We aren’t moochers or afraid to leave the nest. The world simply isn’t built to support us anymore.

How Do Court Reporters Keep Straight Faces? These are from a book called Disorder in the Courts and are things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and published by court reporters that had the torment of staying calm while the exchanges were taking place. ATTORNEY: What was the first thing your husband said to you that morning? WITNESS: He said, ‘Where am I, Cathy?’ ATTORNEY: And why did that upset you? WITNESS: My name is Susan! _______________________________ ATTORNEY: What gear were you in at the moment of the impact? WITNESS: Gucci sweats and Reeboks. ____________________________________________ ATTORNEY: Are you sexually active?

WITNESS: Every year. _____________________________________ ATTORNEY: How old is your son, the one living with you? WITNESS: Thirty-eight or thirty-five, I can’t remember which. ATTORNEY: How long has he lived with you? WITNESS: Forty-five years. _________________________________ ATTORNEY: This myasthenia gravis, does it affect your memory at all? WITNESS: Yes. ATTORNEY: And in what ways does it affect your memory? WITNESS: I forget.. ATTORNEY: You forget? Can you give us an example of something you forgot? ___________________________________________ ATTORNEY: Now doctor, isn’t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, he doesn’t know about it until the next morning? WITNESS: Did you actually pass the bar exam? ____________________________________ ATTORNEY: The youngest son, the 20-year-old, how old is he? WITNESS: He’s 20, much like your IQ. ___________________________________________ ATTORNEY: Were you present when your picture was taken? WITNESS: Are you shitting me? _________________________________________ ATTORNEY: So the date of conception (of the baby) was August 8th? WITNESS: Yes. ATTORNEY: And what were you doing at that time? WITNESS: Getting laid ____________________________________________ ATTORNEY: She had three children , right? WITNESS: Yes. ATTORNEY: How many were boys? WITNESS: None. ATTORNEY: Were there any girls? WITNESS: Your Honor, I think I need a different attorney. Can I get a new attorney? ____________________________________________ ATTORNEY: How was your first marriage terminated? WITNESS: By death.. ATTORNEY: And by whose death was it terminated? WITNESS: Take a guess. ___________________________________________ ATTORNEY: Can you describe the individual? WITNESS: He was about medium height and had a beard ATTORNEY: Was this a male or a female? WITNESS: Unless the Circus was in town I’m going with male. _____________________________________ ATTORNEY: Is your appearance here this morning pursuant to a deposition notice which I sent to your attorney? WITNESS: No, this is how I dress when I go to work. ______________________________________ ATTORNEY: Doctor , how many of your autopsies have you performed on dead people? WITNESS: All of them. The live ones put up too much of a fight. _________________________________________ ATTORNEY: ALL your responses MUST be oral, OK? What school did you go to?

WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: Did you check for blood pressure? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: Did you check for breathing? WITNESS: No.. ATTORNEY: So, then it is possible that the patient was alive when you began the autopsy? WITNESS: No. ATTORNEY: How can you be so sure, Doctor? WITNESS: Because his brain was sitting on my desk in a jar. ATTORNEY: I see, but could the patient have still been alive, nevertheless? WITNESS: Yes, it is possible that he could have been alive and practicing law.

Sound up! 🔈 I positioned my phone underneath my chin to take this video lol but I wanted to show you guys all this cool stuff my new watch does!

(My friend Natalie is a frickin genius and helped jailbreak it all the way from 2020 so I’m not Brayleigh anymore 🙌)

Here’s my little avatar (used for WatchTalk - the FaceTime of the future), a list of hazards that change daily (mad creepy), you can watch TV (there’s 3000 channels but most of them are bullshit), interactive text messages, FUTURE TETRIS (!!!), daily meditation… the list goes on. Super cool! I wonder what else I can do with it now that it’s jailbroken 🤔

Well…I completely trashed the kitchen 😅

But! The empanadas turned out pretty good I think! After Alix was done grumbling about the mess I forced him to try one. We talked for a little. I told him about my friends and family back home…how my mom would make these for me all the time. He didn’t talk much but I think he liked listening. When I asked about HIS family though…I guess that was the wrong thing to say. He went really quiet and made some excuse about being tired and started heading to his room. But before he left the kitchen he turned to me and said “thanks for these.”⁣ ⁣ Mission…accomplished…? 🤷‍♀️
