If you’re wondering where Santa’s reindeer are, they’re in our backyard
(Note: I know they’re not actual reindeer, just eastern whitetails…but still! Forest iggies!)

I feel like I've been struggling to articulate this for years, but I just figured it out: Musicians that can read music/are classically trained are wizards, and musicians that can't read music/learned by ear are sorcerers.

This was really, really good. Go read the essay.
In her new essay for Speculative Insight, Donna Glee Williams explores the ways Joseph Campbell's Hero's Journey really needs to be challenged. Listen to her explanation in this video, and then read the essay:

Joy’s full name is Joy-Noel, because she allegedly was rescued on Christmas Eve. She’s such a sweet girl. So glad my parents have her, and my kiddos get to spend time with her. Ayla even got her a little gift from her school’s holiday market 🥹

In other news, I’m gonna go to stick time tomorrow for the first time. I am equal parts excited and terrified! Best part? I’ll likely be the only woman. And I am on my period. So things should be extra interesting! 🏒

Re: the thread below - it’s why I got off of other platforms. It isn’t as bad on here, but it’s a thing. I just got tired of asking people to look at things with nuance and then being told that I was wrong for even daring to think that.
I don’t owe other people’s stupidity anything 🤷🏼♀️

This is something I and my fellow hyper literate types have a really hard time grasping. It’s frustrating to think you’re being really clear in writing, but still get wildly misunderstood because you’ve overestimated people’s literacy level.
This is…a real problem online.
This is…a real problem online.
People don't understand what is meant by "literacy" and the "literacy crisis".
Literacy isn't just not being able to physically read. Many people know how to see words and say words, which is basic reading. Literacy is being able to infer the correct information from what you read.

There's lots of good science and scholarship out there about trans people and gender,etc, but, ultimately, if you are TERFy or anti-trans...you are just a miserable, mean person.
Because trans people existing hurts literally no one except miserable, mean people with active miserable imaginations.
