every show should have one lady of light, one problematic bisexual prince, one fab high king who sings furiously, many wifeguys, a poet prince, an elf babysitter, a rock loving wifey, a faithful king & his queen, sapphic harfoots, a wizard, one missing silver clam and a Berek 😌

I’m on the market for new beta readers. I’m happy to trade work with other authors, including for proofreading, brainstorming, or whatever skills I might offer in return.

One of my favourite things about Tumblr is the fact that posts from 2009 are still doing the rounds on new blogs. In fact, there are blogs dedicated to Tumblr heritage posts. Some that find and reblog the originals of the posts that make it onto Facebook, Reddit, and Pinterest. It's the best.
Bluesky now has over 10 million users, and I was #2,506,869!

Trump abortion bans are not just a blatant restriction on the freedom of millions of Americans, but they are causing real harm to the health of far too many. Amelia Christnot digs into just how dangerous these GOP abortion restrictions are in The Big Picture.

I think I still have these signs in a drawer.
"Cubes" is the collective noun we ended up with for the whole group of toys.

Most of y’all probably already know this, but if you ever see a bio on here that includes “Feminist” and a dinosaur emoji, that person is a TERF.

As the lake retreated, she left our offerings to her in the mud, coins for wishes.

After which, she revealed older secrets. Knives, vowing rings, great keys to unknown locks, & those fearful weighted bundles.

Her cool touch, her light & song.Those she took with her.

You wish me
Out of the woods
I wish you in

Fling me about in circles
Asking to move on
Not to rest in one place

I wish you to
Stay with me here
You can learn

As I had to so many times
Tiptoe around glass
Lose touch in this silence

You wish me
Into your picture
I wish it out

If I could make a plea for BlueSky, it’s this: Please make a point of sharing links to articles, essays and more that you LOVE, that you enjoyed, that expanded you in some way.

I’m always surprised by the dominance of hate-shares, complaint shares on here. And I think it has a riptide effect.
