"You just want to CRITIQUE POWER." No. I want to destroy it. There's a difference.

introducing the Libra belt 🖤✨ she’ll be up in my shop by tomorrow!!!

I think what has me so gloomy is my ideal life is juuust out of reach, and a mere steady income is all it would take to rid me of any obstacles out of my control. (As it likely would for us all.) (UBI now!!!!)

How many times will I have to say how badly my son needs to go to his therapies? That I can’t help my elderly dad that relies on me? HOW MUCH DO I HAVE TO DO FOR ANY HELP? Pease god help I don’t want life to be more hard I can’t mentally handle this

Juniper's trying to save up for a car not on the verge of breaking down with A/C in this godawful heat, all while needing regular help with groceries, water/electric, phone, car payments, AND rent (landlord allows a day's grace for *an extra $300*, so funding that on time is so important). Boost! 🖤✨

fucked up the worst people in the world get to be rich, while I just want to easily cover bills and groceries, save up for things I want and need, and donate to people who need it sometimes, but I can't even save enough for surgery. then again, how do you get to be rich? by being a piece of shit.

I don’t think this is going to get met which is scary because I truly don’t know what I’m going to do without a car. I’ve been crying all morning thinking of all the things that can happen without having a car and how much therapy my son will miss.My elderly dad will be without help. I feel defeated

READ THIS! A lot at stake if I do not have a working safe car! PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP! this isn’t something that can wait awhile.

Not all art has to be good. What matters is it's true. Or playful. Or energetic. Or striving. That's why sometimes we love things labeled bad. And maybe we encounter them at just the right intersection of time & growth where something ridiculous is made profound only in the privacy of our heart.

Getting ready for #NoirAlley tonight... #FilmNoir DARK PASSAGE (1947) #TCMParty *Humphrey Bogart reading Dark Passage by David Goodis

My new goal is to sell 7 copies this month. It's supposed to be disability pride month, so buy a copy if you're uhhhh proud of me for being disabled? Idk, the book is real good; you probably don't need another reason.

oh yeah, this is a great post to tag with #DisabilityPrideMonth

just finished this fuck FUCK!! What have you done, Aubrey Wood?!

They don't see trans people as people, period. So why stay up-to-date on the latest science for people you don't think exist. There is no payoff or benefit in their book in helping you be a better, happier, healthier person, because you're not a person. You're a problem to ignore until you go away

‼️URGENT NEED‼️ I know this is a big ask but my family relies on having a car. We live rural. My disabled child has 3 therapies a week and I help my elderly dad. ANY help is appreciated as this is important for my son. I also do not have a village besides his medical team. $92/$5700

Stop being afraid of your old corporate owned creative media dying.or at least stoo fucking propping up it's corpse with tickets and streaming service fees. Let them die. Let and support new stuff getting made.

also, I didn't remember I'd HAD that particular idea (or at least the implications for it in what happens) for the way vampires worked at that time. so it was brewing for years before I "came up with it" this year. okay buddy, thanks a lot.

just found a random cut scene from MINTY FRESH and I agree with past me that it didn't fit, but I like it. it shows a facet of vampire physiology and the mindset of one character in a way the final draft didn't allow for. it's fairly visceral and nasty, too. kind of impressed with myself.

oh yeah, this is a great post to tag with #DisabilityPrideMonth

Unfortunately feel like a hot femme could ruin me

Come on ya’ll. Juniper has been at this for days with barely any movement. As the parent of a special needs child whose family also is rural, IT IS IMPORTANT THAT WE HAVE RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION TO TAKE OUR CHILDREN TO ALL OF THEIR THERAPY AND SPECIALIST APPOINTMENTS! Help!

one of the fucked up things about physical disability is that if you adjust your life to be in pain less often then you start to think you must have just faked it and youre not actually chronically ill and you made it up for attention.

Coming soon: UNLUCKY SKIN. A werewolf wreaks havoc on a Black Forest village. A young man, marked from birth, has his curiosity awoken when a grievously wounded stranger appears in his cattle shed. As chaos in the village escalates, the two are drawn together. But which of them has more to hide?

Word-of-mouth is invaluable. If you like someone's work, give it in every way you can!

This is another favorite from my childhood. I grew up a little weird; not much, but a little.

bringing my butch brawler oc Banks back to your timeline 😌

Felt like I was going crazy, but I saw this coming years ago. (I do not like being vindicated.) Still remember holding my breath as a nine-year-old accompanying my six-year-old cousin to the restroom as I walked through the smoking section of the diner we went to every Saturday for a family lunch.

Anne Rice was a real one. the bats have left the belfry and i miss her

It isn't enough to hate the fascists, you know? You have to love and empathize with their victims beyond just yourself or those you can see within your borders You have to do more than just react

Hey, support a queer writer and enjoy some GREAT vampire, werewolf, and other spooky good shit: bio.site/vexcorvine

Happy World Snake Day! #WorldSnakeDay

so exhausted. summer weather. still paying off last year's taxes. struggling to pitch my book(s) regularly and well. feels like I'm walking on a treadmill going 20 mph.

idk what the fuck is wrong with me, except that I wanted to find it for SO LONG that at some point I FORGOT that I FINALLY found it years ago, and didn't put it where I put my other video game wallpapers. never believe what I say.

i like how all the nazis get stabbed in the throat ☺️

goth allies, buy my goth book for the goth(s) in your life 🦇

🌹 cis people don’t do gender affirming care it’s just healthcare neither do trans people, we have healthcare. it was a stupid psyop to ever call it gender affirming care in the first place

Right now I'm thinking of one of me at 2-3yo, glaring sullenly and defiantly at the camera while rolling up my sleeves (almost certainly to conduct to Vivaldi's The Four Seasons; I did this A Lot). My mother said this was in response to her telling me not to roll up my sleeves. Right on, kiddo. ✊

There are several childhood photos I will never see again that I desperately wish I had scans of.

thinking of that time an author needed to crowdfund dental work the same week they said they were a staunch capitalist, you just cannot write it any better than that, folks
