I'm in two vastly different starter packs, so Intro post time!
Hi, I'm Cat. The cat in my icon is named Dreadful. He's an adolescent in that picture, but he's now 18.
I'm a queer, polyam American immigrant to Canada.
I'm currently surviving on a diet of fanvids, figure skating and bibimbap.

Alas, she had calmed down by the time I got to the park.
Kīlauea is doing her thing again! I'm meeting my sister out there as soon as I get out of this endless drive-thru line.

I graduated high school in a conservative semi-rural area in 1998.
Gay was a normal slur used by my classmates.
A kid in one of my classes was outed and kicked out of his house. His father was the choir teacher.

pre-writing a devastating obituary for your enemy is god-tier hating of a kind you don’t often see anymore. renaissance haterism. beautiful stuff.
A Sharon Begley byline, almost 5 years after her death.
Upon hearing the news James Watson had died, a STAT reporter said in our Slack, "I wish I could read what Sharon would have written."
Incredible news: Sharon in fact did pre-write a Watson obit. And it is masterful and excoriating.

I'm half-watching the #NHKTrophy FD, but not trying to form opinions, because that's definitely more than my poor brain can handle right now, but I have to say, I really appreciate Mark's eye for detail, and ability to point out errors that I might not catch even if my brain weren't currently jelly.

Stuck in my little dark room with a migraine today, I'm listening to old eps of Maintenance Phase which are really comforting after dealing with my mother's fucked up relationship with food and weight for the last month.
