Huge nerd. Sings and codes, not necessarily in that order. Not big on own pronouns, happy to respect yours. Leave my trans brothers and sisters alone.

Even the current supreme court wanted nothing to do with that.

It's an excellent book! Good luck with the airports!

Returned to the opera costume people this morning only to once again hear the words "...I don't think we have *anything* that size."

...you took my measurements last time? And you already had them from the last few seasons? You're not making me any less self-conscious here.

Seat 10 – Sam and I will spend the whole time talking about potatoes loudly enough to annoy both Saruman and Gandalf.

I don't want to discourage you from working on new features, (those sound useful for new people!) but I don't use the Discover feed or Explore - I mostly want a way to ensure I never end up on Discover.

This book was amazing when it came out, it's still amazing, and you should read it.

(I should reread it again.)

Anyway I keep forgetting to yell about this book when it is 🍂seasonal 🍂 but THE APPLE-TREE THRONE (a little vanity project I self-pubbed in 2018) is also available on Kobo and in audio!

A young soldier returned from war is haunted by the ghost of his commanding officer (a posh git)

(I had a production with 45 cast members a couple of years ago where we did this in every scene, every rehearsal right up to opening night.)

Oh, those are great comfort reads – I think I've reread them half a dozen times now when I desperately need something I know I love.

(Often followed by the rest of the Chalion books after being reminded of them.)

Seriously. I saw the original Tron when it came out and loved it, but I was in my teens at the time and loved anything to do with computers and anything ridiculous with special effects.

We don't need endless nostalgic revisitations of things I liked as a kid! Make some new stuff!

This is the most cursèd foodstuff I've seen on the internet in quite a while.

That sounds amazing – I'll have to try it!

This is the only part of my timeline that got a laugh today, you win the internet.
