Hey Stardusts! While I'm known for space sci-comm, that is work I do because at its heart is a love for our planet and the life on it. In my other life I run a small non-profit called Esther's Echo that supports a school started by Sierra Leone local community leader Esther Kanu. 1/2

BLACK FRIDAY SALE
through Monday Dec 1, almost everything in my shop is 20% off (some a little less, some more! in-stock items only)
My merch is niche by design, so it makes for gifts that feel thoughtful and personal if anyone on your list is a lefty or queer Trekkie.

I'm an untrained artist designing merch that draws on niche pop culture mashups for queer pride, nerd humor, and agitprop for a better world being possible. This thread includes a sampling of my work, which you can find on stickers and shirts, pins, prints, and patches at willburrows.art/shop

The good news is that I eventually walked out on this job and started my own pet care business that’s been going strong over 18 years now. Little did I know I was creating the perfect job for my neurodivergent needs. Best decision ever!
Idk if my boss threw me under the bus or Cornell University is just really good at protecting unhinged, abusive professors who would scream, cry and slam desks in staff meetings, but HR felt it was somehow MY problem. (I just took minutes in staff meetings and reported her abuse).

FB memories reminding me of the end of two relationships during this time of year that would lead to the beginning of self-priority, discovery and unbelievable personal growth. Dark, depressing and frankly terrifying times in my life where community rallied behind me to keep me safe. Grateful 🖖🏼

Pay attention to how men speak about the women in their lives, especially women who are doing better than them. Notice how he adores the women who serve his needs but despises those who excel without giving him a second thought, or no longer abandon themselves to fulfill his needs.

IDIC means celebrating all facets of humanity and ensuring peace, safety and support so we can all manifest our greatest selves. Denying trans people this right is in direct violation of Star Trek’s ethics and core values. Violence against the trans community must end.

A reminder to survivors of SA to minimize exposure to the news right now. Last night I had vivid dreams of SA, as well as other abuses and stalking. I know it’s due to engaging with and amplifying victim’s stories, which I feel is essential right now, but it’s time for a break.
