January 2026 Writing Recap: Day 1: 18 words Day 2: 455 words Day 3: 435 words Day 4: 51 words I wrote 4/31 days. My writing days were not consecutive. It's been a tough winter. Rereading and reconnecting with my characters has been a very pleasant experience. #GFT2026

Gotta Finish This 2026 (that's what I'm calling this) Day 1: 18 words Better than zero ^_^ a good start! #GFT2026

After finishing NaNo 2025, I had made great progress in writing my novel but it is not finished. In fact, I believe it is only about 66% done. So, I am giving myself until the end of May 2026 to complete this project. Today is Day 1. Wish me luck ^_^

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Never forget this: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.

So ends my first NaNo experience! Thank you to all who have followed along with me this month & to the @nano2wordsprints.bsky.social team esp. Good luck to all in your projects! I was able to do this so I know that you all can too! #NaNo2.0 #NaNo2 #NaNoWriMo #NaNoNewComer #NovelNovember #NovNov

My final mad grab for NaNo2.0 badges before I wrap up. I have had many throughout the process, so I will take this moment to claim the #EurekaMoment badge. And finally, today makes day 30/30 for the #WriteDaily badge.

Nov 30: 2 words Although I am not there yet in my WIP, I added "The End" to my document. IDK how long it'll take to close the gap, but I am committed to completing this project. If this month taught me anything it's that I am capable. #NaNo2.0 #NaNo2 #NaNoWriMo #NaNoNewComer #NovelNovember #NovNov

Day 25 Reflections: - life happens & things slow down, but it feels important not to come to a full stop - after hitting 3x my original goal i am left satisfied with my progress, impressed by my ability, & a little unsure about how to keep the momentum - i am as grateful for 24 as i am for 1500

No crowns. No thrones. No kings. youtu.be/Vwhj7IIu-3k?...

Trump hates to be the object of humor. He understands that humor can be a more powerful antidote to tyranny than any other form of criticism. I'm sure he'd hate it if you shared this cartoon. [Cartoon by Jon Adams/The New Yorker]

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

More cute baby ducks. Less fascism.

If you’re looking for some sleepy time white noise tonight, I had an ~~idea~~ this week… It’s a white noise video that donates all revenue to Partners in Health and you can watch it here: youtu.be/dv2XyqC-EQ4

Lololol

“Saving democracy” is not the same thing as saving people.

We half joked that anti-vax folks would be the folks to hide a zombie bite... but let's be real. They would be the folks that, when we found the cure that would reverse the virus, would choose to become a zombie instead. Because "who can trust the cure! IDK what's in that?" 🙄

Remember who the real big bad is.

I keep seeing people be like “I’m useless. I have no skills. How can I help?” So I made a list of skills to learn so we can start pulling labor away from the capitalists and into our own communities. 🧵

Bridges are pretty cool
