I have no upper body strength , and no desire to be a rancher, but I have the idea in my head I’m going to become a farrier in the next 10 years and make horse shoes.
Hard truth: I wrote about gay desire 20 years ago. Since then, I have written about war, friendship, talking animals, art, death, and disability. If you want me to write about desire again, someone is going to have to step up, take the hit for the team, and fall in love with me.
Walked in today to grab my pull list, and he came RUNNING to give me the edition of a comic that got damaged in transport a week ago and like?? He remembered?? He didn’t have to? But he always ALWAYS does?
I am not of the generation that waits for the paper, but I do wait for my weekly Wednesday morning email from the elderly comic book shop owner like it’s gospel.
Someone asked me if I would live in a tiny home. That feels like a threat. Why would I place myself into solitary confinement with <400 sq ft, and 28 years worth of mental illness.
I DO NOT WANT AI TO HELP ME FINISH MY TEXTS OR THOUGHTS. I AM A DESIGNER OF LEXICON. AN ENGINEER OF VERNACULAR. I SAY NEW SENTENCES EVERY SINGLE DAY THAT CANNOT BE PREDICTED BY YOUR MACHINE. DO NOT GUIDE MY HAND, FOR I AM LIGHT YOU BITCH.

Local witch shop used AI, got lambasted by the artists who frequent, doubled down, got snarky, dirty deleted and is now begging people to come talk over tea. All outside of business hours!!!
@GovernorAnne Meeting all 5 of my adult siblings had me doing the same thing with my felonious older brother. When he asked if he was sure I “didn’t need any protection” as if he was going to do anything, and when I said no just looked at me and said “Yeah- your parents have lawyers, huh?”

Good news! Didn’t have any issues at my dental follow up!
Bad news! I had sinus pressure so bad I had to go to my dentist to make sure my teeth were actually fully intact! (They are!)
