Still job-hunting, which means jerseys are really not in the budget currently. So I was extra-excited that Sadie & crew dropped these last night! Repping the ever-awesome Ceej!

Still alive, even if not posting much. Managed a bit of a walk today before knees did Bad Things, in a bit of sun; thought I'd share the dramatic clouds

Posting this again because I've been getting questions: at this moment there is no licensed merch for Murderbot or Sanctuary Moon except what is on Worldbuilders Market worldbuildersmarket.com/collections/... where it's sold for charity fundraising. And they are getting a new t-shirt design soon.

Charities that help folks who've recently given birth also often need incontinence pads and other pregnancy related supplies that are FSA approved.
This is your annual reminder that if you are in the US and have FSA funds that you won't use, Menstrual products are covered by FSA funds and can be donated to food pantries and shelters.

Anyone want to commission 8 lines of doggerel on a subject of your choice, for £25?

Some I'm still connected with here/elsenet/elselife. Some I remember. Some I don't miss, many I do.

Life ebbs and flows.....I think LJ will always be a Remembered point in that (for me at least)

Was just thinking it'd been too long so I needed to find this today.... and there's the fantabulous @infamousfiddler.bsky.social taking care again 💙💙💙
Wow okay y'all.

I take a deep breath, release it and as much tension I can expel, and cast....

Happy November 23 - birth day of Harpo Marx, Doctor Who, and Wolfenoot! As well as National Polyamory Day (at least in Canada). Very much a time to celebrate love and happiness and kindness and dreams and your pack (however you define that!) 💙💙💙

It's Trans Day of Remembrance. Today we remember those who were taken from us far too soon because of transphobia in the world.

For many of us, we are misgendered even in death, and disallowed from being who we actually are even when we are no longer here. This is why we remember our dead.

Today is the Transgender Day of Remembrance. Trans people have literally always been here; every time I see someone sneering "oh but there were no trans people when I was in high school," well. I dated a trans girl in high school, and was close friends with a trans guy.
