I’ve been awol for a while because of current events but also because I’ve lost all motivation to write and finish my current project. I have like 10-15k left but I just gave up because it’s all garbage. Writing is hard, and I’m exhausted. Whatever, nobody cares. I’ll let y’all know when it changes

My Astro hot take: the little green Martian men are really hiding underground on mars. I.e. there might be unicellular life still alive underground on mars or on certain moons.

It would make me so happy to see little Martian microbes dancing around.

I think we need to bring back something like the ice bucket challenge. Something to give us some hope, and remind us to do good in the rough times.

Idk just a thought.

First hummer of the day. The colors of my bougainvillea and this male Anna’s hummingbird look so pretty in the muted 5:30 AM light.

It is better to write a shitty book every month, then to spend years not writing one at all. That’s my greatest writing advice at this point.

Here’s the first 5 chapters of my #highfantasy book A Sea of Light.
I’m looking for #betareaders and #editors as well.
It’s got drakins, drugs, and lgbtq+ themes.

Can you imagine the nightmare… that even drakins fear?

Me: I have an entire week to finish writing the end of this book. I have like 10k left.

Me on Friday: welp, I did almost everything else but write. Maybe I should just give up and actually relax.

Go ahead and yell at me now, my bad.

Thank god for #jetlagthegame airing today. I’m having a hell of a vacation and I want a fucking refund. Excuse me while I make vegan nachos and cry while watching @tomscott.com and da boys.

@algreen.house.gov As a Trans American, thank you for standing up for us, for all Americans, against tyranny and oppression tonight.

Remember these names.

These are the ones who stood with us.
Democrats who walked out during Trump's speech following Rep Al Green (Per X), include, Congresswomen Maxine Dexter, Nikema Williams, Jasmine Crockett, Yassamin Ansari. Per The Hill, other Democrats included Maxwell Frost, Melanie Stansbury, LaMonica McIver, Lateefah Simon, and Bernie Sanders.

Maybe #Americans really do hate trans people. #sotu2025 I’m so cooked.

This is fucking terrifying. I’ve never been scared to be an American watching the #sotu #usa

Your monthly reminder:

Keep writing. When no one cares, persist. When things appear to be crumbling, keep at it. When it's difficult, push through. When you feel alone, listen to the stories in your blood. Just write. The world needs your stories.

I’m writing about all the things I ought to do before I die. It’s called an oughtobiography.

I really want to try to write a fantasy book in 48 hours on livestream. I think it could be a really cool challenge, and I have some ideas to make it more doable.

I’m sure that it’s better suited to someone who has a better track record of writing novels, but that doesn’t mean I can’t try. Lmao

I will never forget the photo of Zelenskyy’s face after he saw Russia’s war crimes in Bucha in 2022. He seemed to age years in an afternoon. Watching him constantly cross the world asking for aid that should have been thrown at him is one of the deepest shames of our age.

Watching Putin’s little stooges try to bully Zelenskyy in our goddamned White House is pretty repulsive.

I hate this, and I don’t understand how any American could not.
Hearing from Community Partners International, which works from Myanmar to Bangladesh, that USAID cuts mean 14,000 people with HIV losing access to lifesaving meds and a total stop in all HIV and TB screening. So many people will die due to these chaotic, sudden, horrifically implemented cuts.

Gonna pick a stupid bone with this.
We do not have “Universal Right to Marriage.”

Polyamory is very much not recognized everywhere.

And don’t get me started on polygamy.

Just because they have issues doesn’t mean they don’t deserve the same rights as everyone else.
