Thanks for this context, I didn't know this detail.

Their faces are so great!!!! 💜💜💜

What an awesome feeling. I get that even if I don't have that exact ability.

I was actually stung by a jellyfish badly (it wrapped around my leg) as a kid and it was really awful—however, that was the first and only time they have every bothered me! (Fingers crossed) I suppose it will happen at some point since I swim so much....just part of the deal.

That's a AWESOME compliment. My fave compliment is that I'm "creatively exuberant" :)

I'm not rich but I still never cooked for Thanksgiving...cause I don't really cook! So this is more a "do you like cooking" thing more than a wealthy ppl thing. I've known wealthy ppl who love to cook!

Oh god this exact thing happened to me with a rando in Goodreads. He saw every damn thing my brain was bad at in my book! It freaked me out, the accuracy.

Oh wow!!! Yes, brain injuries take time and are no joke!!! Please rest up—we need your brain (and the rest of you too....) in the world!

Like seriously what is wrong with people with too much money

"Im going to the bottom of the ocean" "im going in a volcano" "im going into space" "im climbing a dangerous mountain"

Raise the taxes for their own safety my god

Oh hahahaha! I'm actually not very practiced at essay writing so this is a way for me to do that kinda writing more (which I LOVE to read). But my hope is that it should be a kinda fun/accessible read, these essays. No philosophy/theory references THIS time. Would love to hear your feedback!

Hey @katelynburns.com - would be honored for you to check it out (and happy for any feedback.....)

I don't celebrate christmas anymore as I'm not christian (I celebrate Solstice because it's a real phenomenon based in reality and b/c that is the holiday that was stolen by the patriarchal religion). But I get SO much pushback from other secular folk abt it. Frustrating.

I have to say I'm just thoroughly enjoying this all because they all suck and so I can just giggle with schadenfreude because I'm not on anyone's side (except the Story).
