All That I'm Feeling

My partners and therapists have been asking how I am feeling, post-election results. That's the easy part: Disgust. Frustration. Rage. Determination and Resolve. Exhaustion. But out of all the emotions I can list, I can't say I was surprised. A large part of me suspected the

I LOVE THIS SHIT: Customizing Your Gender (or not)

So for funsies, I'm making a pronouns.page account and when I'm not looking up the unfamiliar terms, I'm wrapped up in the nuances of * agender * neutrois * nonbinary * gendervoid * genderqueer And. So. On. I love noodling over stuff like this. This is why I

GOD save us from YOUR FOLLOWERS

That was the very first bumper sticker I ever put on my car... let's say, almost two decades ago. Out of all the packers, rainbows, wigs, and glitter in that little LGBTQ shop, that was the item I ultimately came away with. It said everything I needed to

Throwback Something

Things I Used to Hate

Do you ever just, hate stuff? You hate it. And then you grew up. probably FFX-2 (but most definitely Unlimited SaGa) Because it didn't need all the hate I gave it. I will still argue that playing X-2 right after X can give you mood whiplash, but that

Disney Films My Dad Pirated in the 80s-90s, because Fuck Disney Actually

A ramble from my previous post about movies, exactly what it says on the tin! We were poor and didn't have cable. And don't fucking act like you wouldn't pirate Disney movies nowadays. Jokes aside, my dad was a huge fan of animation, and

Some Movies from my Formative Years

Or, "What Do You Mean, It's Not Spelled 'Formulative'?!" (But seriously, thanks for over-the-shoulder proofreading, Nesting Partner! Maybe I should have an editor on retainer...) Or, movies I played repeatedly to the point where the VHS tape player started making funny noises. These are
