The House will vote TODAY on whether to advance devastating cuts to Medicaid that would destroy lifesaving programs for people with disabilities, children, seniors, and more. Call your representative now and tell them to save Medicaid at (202) 224-3121.

all these interviews with remorseful trump voters are exhausting “we had no idea” we’ve been screaming at you for almost ten years. you knew, and you only care now that it effects you. glad you’re awake, but to me you are and will always remain unforgiven.

"support iowa authors fighting book bans" i whisper to my publisher, sliding my gothic fantasy horror book about bodily autonomy full of moths in places they should not be, phantom bells only the fmc can hear, and castles entombed in thorns across the table

I have read over 2 books

The extreme loop between "I am a monster for talking about my art right now" and "People need art to get through these times."

“The call came from the hollows of his mind. Like a thread tugged loose from a tapestry it pulled [redacted] across the Reverie, leading him back to the place he prayed he would never return.” — VEILWEAVER (Book 2), Oct ‘25 from @orbitbooks.bsky.social
