Hi, I’m Allison!

Here’s the things I usually post or talk about:
- Memes and jokes 🤣
- My nerdy interests 🎮
- Painting Warhammer minis 🖌️
- My writing journey 📖
- Astronomy 🔭
- My cat, Elsie 🐈

On top of that, I always strive to be positive and uplifting. But be warned, there’s occasional chaos too!
So…does anyone else’s cats synchronise going to pee when you do?

Or is it just mine?

I’ve never actually played proper D&D.

I’ve played Baldur’s Gate 3, I’ve watched Critical Role, and for a short time at university I was even part of a Dark Heresy group (though I had no idea what I was doing). But not D&D itself.

I do have an idea for a character. And I’d like to play it someday.

Blunt the knives, bend the forks,
Smash the bottles and burn the corks,
Chip the glasses and crack the plates,
That’s what Bilbo Baggins hates!

Heard a series of strange crashes just now in my house, kinda like metal and plastic clanking. I was really worried that it was something serious…

I go to look, and what was it? The cat knocking a load of stuff off a desk! 😹

There we go, that’s all the chores done!

Aaaand relax!
Right, things I need to do in the next hour:
- put on the washing.
- clean the bathroom.
- change the cat’s litter tray.
- take out the bins.
- hang up the washing to dry once it’s finished.

Let’s see if my ADHD ass can do this.

Okay, go!

From what I gather, people are arguing over ‘the right way to transition’.

Well imma say this.

Transition how YOU want. There’s no right or wrong way. You don’t need to do what anyone else says. Forever full femme or always dressed down, doesn’t matter. You yourself being happy is most important.

Ah, I see there is a discourse happening. How silly.

✅ What autism is:

- a processing difference
- a unique way of experiencing and interacting with the world
- a disability (for many, but not all)

❌ What autism is not:

- a mental illness
- a disease
- an excuse

Understanding autism means recognizing neurodiversity - not pathologising it ❤️

Gonna have to get another Tau battlesuit at some point to paint in Samus’ new suit colours…
Very fitting for the week a new Metroid game was released, I got a Tau commander in Samus’ power suit colours—including orange!

Dragon “kidnaps” a pretty girl, and a bunch of men in suits wanna know what I saw?

Nothin’

I was minding my own business.

Question:

Who else, when you see a squirrel running around somewhere outside, loudly shouts, “SQUIRREL!”

…or is it just me?

Today marks 6 years of HRT for me! 🎉

Honestly, it’s been the best 6 years of my life. There’s definitely been ups and downs along the way, but I haven’t regretted transitioning for a single second.

If I had a nickel for every book I’ve read this year that has exactly this, I’d have 3 nickels.

Yep, 3.

And finished!

That. Was. Fantastic!

Honestly, this book was an absolute joy. Brought me smiles, tugged my heartstrings, even made me laugh out loud a few times!

And if there’s one thing that really stands out…it’s Bloom herself, the star of the show. What an incredible, fascinating character! 💖💖💖
Hey, check out what got delivered this morning!

It’s my next read! Gonna start tonight!
