I'm a survivor. I want to feel safe and no longer silenced. This feels like that. I hope this will be a place where I can talk openly & safely, to advocate for & engage with the communities I'm part of. I'm proud of my identity & my progress, and I look forward to more growth.

I guess I took that one and ran with it. Too late by the time I realized.

It’s been four years to the month that I had my ACL surgery. Suddenly, my knee is swollen, and I can’t bend it to its normal range of motion or walk on it, and it hurts. Ouch.

Halloween is my favorite holiday. My partner and I spent it moving in together. She came home from work & gave me a Halloween card telling me how much she loves me & surprising me with box tickets to the @TeamStarKid Jangle Ball Tour. I cried. I am so thrilled and in love.

If you need something to lift your spirits a little, you should know that my partner and I sometimes sleep like otters, holding hands. 🥺

@MisWiredKE In my experience, I hypothesize that it’s because I haven’t fully recovered from burnout in the first place. 🥴🫠

@tylerdaguerre Substitute “day” with “month” or “year,” and you got it, pal!

@NeuroRebel Like when you need to cry but you’re holding it in.

Rewatching all of Stranger Things again and Ted Wheeler just said, “They’re our government; they’re on our side.”

When I say I laughed out loud… and then cried a little.

I hope everyone enjoyed NMT2. I’d love to do NMT3, if 2 performs well enough. In the meantime, here’s an announcement… https://t.co/4n45zCUT90
