Hey, I still write a little bit sometimes. Just some thoughts on the recent SCOTUS ruling (and its timing this 4th of July).

I swear if they try to give us any lore or explain who he is or why he's in Middle Earth I will riot. We don't need to know. He's a merry fellow, bright blue his jacket is and his boots are yellow, nothing else is any of our goddamn business

So Amazon confirmed Tom Bombadil will be in Rings of Power s2, and I sincerely hope he does not do a single plot-relevant thing the whole time he is on screen. I want him to pop in for half an episode, do something weird, sing a lil song, brag about his wife, and fuck off for the rest of the season.

a thing to remember, in all of this horror, is that these are not the actions of a political party that is confident it represents the will of the people, and who is currently out of power and enslaved to a deeply flawed avatar. the struggle is not over and they have not won

maybe seizing and arresting the Supreme Court majority for aiding and abetting an attempt to overthrow the U.S. government can be a "core constitutional duty" and an "official act," why not

"Biden has the opportunity to do the funniest thing right now" He won't. He actually has the opportunity to use malicious compliance in a way that would be not just funny but morally right, but won't, and will stand behind his cowardice calling it the "moral high ground" and watch things fall apart.

With today's USSC ruling, I suspect we are nearing the end of the "Events Leading Up To" chapter of future history books.

"With fear for our democracy, I dissent," is about as bedrock and terrifying and vital a statement as you're going to get. That's a line you spraypaint on walls, that you ink into your skin. And it's chilling that it is necessary to say at all.

Y’all, we have GOT to get the Queer Liberation Library funded for another year. I can’t say enough about how much they mean to me and the queer kids I know living in the rural American South. Please boost, and donate if you can. πŸŒˆπŸ“š

Sometimes parenting is lying down for your first few precious minutes of down time in eleven hours only to get up after reading half a page to keep your young child company while they cry on the toilet for twenty minutes because they are suddenly and inexplicably terrified of pooping.

I want whatever will give me the most complete collection so if one has, I don't know, more bonus content or something. I've never read the series but I really want to and I have serious FOMO if I don't get EVERY part of the story.

Long shot but this is for @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com: A while ago on tumblr someone asked what version of Sandman you'd recommend for someone who wants the complete series (absolute editions, omnibus, annotated, etc) and I can't find it now. If you don't mind answering again, which do you suggest?

I am 34 and only just saw my first star war a couple years ago. There are so many "everyone has seen this" movies and TV shows I'm still out of the loop entirely on. (I'm pretty sure I've never seen a whole episode of The Office tbh.)

Lesson of the day: Just because they don't value what you have to offer, does not mean that what you have to offer isn't valuable.

My favorite was "Oh, NOW you're mad at Donald Trump for being a creep? What about Bill Clinton huh? What about when it's YOUR GUY?" Like first of all Billiam isn't a current presidential candidate, you're right tho I totally should've been more enraged and outspoken when I was SEVEN YEARS OLD

After Quiet On Set, genuinely can't believe the number of people making comments about how so-and-so better speak up, why isn't so-and-so saying anything, so-and-so needs to tell their story, oh I bet they took the hush money. THEY DON'T OWE US SHIT. Especially their fucking trauma. STOP.

You know what sucks about people in general? I put so much effort into scripting my interactions with people to make sure I don't fuck it up, and then they don't even follow the script they didn't know about. Rude.

At the end of this year for Spotify Wrapped they're going to see I listened to Loser, Baby from Hazbin Hotel 159,834 times and instead of an annual summary they'll just send me an email saying "Bitch are you okay?!"

SAME. I already don't thrive in warm weather. I'm stressed about the temperatures, severe weather, whether bugs are going to be 1000x worse and make Being Outside unenjoyable. Part of why I live in Minnesota is because I LIKE the winters here. I hate this so much.

It's the simplicity of "and be proud" at the end I think. God I love this kid.

Normally I look to @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com for writing inspiration but I think he's been outdone by a kindergartener here and honestly that seems fair, kindergarteners are very wise

Writing advice from a my six year old (ignore the stains, I didn't notice this note until after splattering pizza sauce on it): "think about what I'm goona [sic] write write it write more of it write more of it and be proud" (Can anyone tell me why this almost made me cry)
