I spend my time reading, writing, and learning about the human experience. Always interested in how others think.

Currently Reading 📚:
• Chomsky - On Anarchism
• Ninth House
• They Can't Kill Us All
I keep seeing MAGAts post about how "America is so back" after the change of Gulf of Mexico to Gulf of America. They have the idea that the rest of the world will see our greatness because a body of water shares our name (I'm guessing, I don't pretend to understand their logic). continued👇🏼

I've been dealing with a loss in the family, so I haven't been on here much. Thought I'd share a cool photo of one of my #cats I just took.

Writing for work, writing for politics, writing my book, writing for fun. #writersky #booksky #writer
why do you write like you 're running out of time?

This is why I have almost zero faith in my fellow American. They aren't "panic buying" they are taking advantage of their community by hoarding a product then selling it back at an inflated price. These people search for the quick buck they will make off of a crisis.
🚨BREAKING: Frantic customers are now panic buying massive amounts of eggs at Costco, just like they did with toilet paper during Trump's last term. This is only the beginning of the chaos.

Make sure everyone sees this.

Outsourcing my political rant today - I introduce an average text from my mother. This is in regard to a discussion we were having over the three branches of government. 👇 #gotitfrommymama #politics #political #rant

Late night thought. If Trump is cutting basically everything our tax dollars help cover in an effort to save money, then what exactly will our tax money go to, and why should I even pay it?

Do you think historians many years from now will dig up our social media posts and wonder why so many were concerned with egg prices as the world burned around them?

I've become addicted to #audiobooks now. I used to have difficulty focusing on them, but nice headphones and mundane tasks have helped with that and now 3/4 of my read list is audiobooks. #booksky

I hate when someone hires me to add one paragraph in an already written article. They always want it to "match the vibe" of what was already written. Which is like asking one artist to finish the painting of another. It's incredibly hard to match a style that isn't yours. #copywriting #writersky

Democrats virtue signaling about how great of rule followers they are isn't really helping solve the fact that some of our most powerful people are most definitely NOT rule followers and fighting them actually requires you to break some things. But then again. I was never a rule following Democrat.

There is no reason alligators have to look that stupid under the water when they float. These are some of the most powerful and dangerous animals and they just gremlin pose to float. #animals #rantoftheday

Just finished first February read. I have never read a book like this before, and the #poetry and storytelling legit made me cry. I'm horrible at poetry, but this inspired me to try to write some. #writersky #booksky #fiction

Does anyone get their book ideas from dreams? I dream pretty vividly every night and a good chunk of my ideas come from dreams. #writer #fiction #writersky #booksky

The average American having a 24-hour attention span to major events is going to piss me off these next 4 years, I can already tell.

Alright. Just finished my audiobook with 3 hours to spare. Here is my January reading list!

Idk if this is a popular or unpopular opinion. I keep seeing people say that their book "isn't meant to give a message" and that they are just "writing for fun", and I'm a firm believer that all books have a message whether it's intentional or not. #booksky #writersky #fictionbook

Went into a store just called BOOKS. And yeah. Lots of books.

You know what, I found out the problem with why I can't finish #writing my book. I'm a DEI hire.🤦🏻‍♀️

I'm honestly grateful that my mother is just as (if not more) leftist than I am. I feel for the people trying to fight this government while their family cheers for facists. #resist

Only 20 pages in and already obsessed. Second book I'm reading as a comp title to the one I'm #writing. #fiction #scifi #fantasy #mystery #booksky

Are you really a #writer if you don't cringe after writing a sentence and promising yourself that you will make it less bad later? #writersky #booksky #fictionwriter #shortstory
