Here to remind myself I'm more than a mom, I'm a bitch too.
Im absolutely sick of learned helplessness from men. So many mothers of autistic children are completely isolated and the ones that aren't built thier community brick by gd brick. Cry about it #autism #men

In a completely normal and not unhinged way. I've prepared a slide deck to get my kid into #startrek

Sometimes #autismmoms are so fuckin embarrassing my god. Not them using #ai to throw a full fledged tantrum over #autismbarbie.

And what kind of parent calls themselves a caretaker?

Damn imagine being me with this handle and just now discovering #tossatnight

Not a full win tho because ive quickly realized that for me in uk its like a 6am watch party so.....

When people ask me how I emmigrated from the US, I feel like my answer is always super disappointing and unexciting. Its never like OH IM A NUCLEAR ENGINEER. No, i got married. Thats literally it.

I make art btw. Black Forager is part of a larger antiarchive detailing the botanical legacies of enslaved Africans in Texas.

I remember when I weighed 130lbs and thought I was fat. ive hit the "there's a genocide and laundry, brenda" part of body neutrality. Id call it freeing if it weren't panic inducing to live in these gd unprecedented times.

People upset at the #autismbarbie. I humble urge you to touch grass. Its a toy for children not a beacon of disability rights. Sorry barbie didnt create a doll in active disregulation like???

Yeah there are #avatar s in my short story but not like that I promise...

The system ofc. But in the story i wrote just before this, the antagonist is the black hole of a desire. Ever experience desire so intense that bends time and space and threatens your entire self concept?
#horrorwriterschat
Horror is known for having both natural and supernatural antagonists, like the landscape or a ghostly presence.

Q4 #HorrorWritersChat

In your current WIP or latest published horror work, who or what antagonises your protagonist?

Well, lately ive been striving to focus on what the character feels vividly, explicitly, embarrassingly. Not what they think or what they do. Never had a panic attack so destabilizing that you throw up and forget where you are? Let me show you what its like on the inside. #horrorwriterschat
Q3 #HorrorWritersChat

How does your writing style seek to instill fear, disgust, or otherwise unsettle your readers?

[See an example from Cynthia Pelayo in the graphic]

My story violates the notion that your body is yours, that your perception and experiences are uniquely your own.

“Horror comes from a violation of what characters perceive to be reality.” - Writing in the Dark by Tim Waggoner

Example: a haunted house violates the assumption that we are alone in our homes.

Q2 #HorrorWritersChat
Which perceived realities do you utilise in your horror writing?
January 14, 2026 at 10:34 PM
Bro idk I think somewhere between body horror but make it existential.

My 3 influences are not horror based: black mirror, severence, avatar (but I actually hate that movie)
Welcome to #HorrorWritersChat

Q1
Introduce yourself and the horror subgenres you write.

Then, share three works of horror that influenced your latest work OR current WIP.

I'm ESPECIALLY tired of consumerism masquerading as self care, masquerading as healing, masquerading as rest. Drinking a latte in bed and getting pedicures can make you feel better but be so fucking forreal. It doesn't replace therapy or actual community care.

God I'm so excited for like, people speaking out about content fatigue because I'm literally tired of puddle deep sociopolitical analysis, hustle culture, and aspirational living. #intentionalscrolling

You hear that? While history repeats itself remember what black revolution also looks like.
February 27, 2025 at 6:42 PM
Yah also something about losing the ability to engage deeply with complex ideas and raw data.
Something something we look at art at such a small scale on our phone screens that we’re losing the ability to appreciate linework and detailing due to the “observe for a second, like, and scroll” method of art consumption facilitated by social media.

Hey you, yes you..black woman who said you're going to "sit it out, protecting your peace."

There's no peace to protect anymore. You are inside the burning house.
