I am starting a publishing press! @riotreverence.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/theresaz...

I’m having a fucking *amazing* day

Guys, I’m launching my own indie emo press and I’ve almost got my first outside author

I have not eaten enough/any protein today oops

There was so much rum last night

I am both confident and awkward simultaneously

Might write about masturbation again. Just to shake things up

Ya girl has submitted a tv pilot to festivals and is now creating a really tight series bible for it. Thinking in entertainment domination terms now. Watch tf out

Finding new things to mix the rum with

Getting more and more and more and progressively more and more unhinged

Found a sparkly pink guitar with distortion amp for Penny (for free!). Now should I get myself a purple strat?

Penny (6) just asked for a mini electric guitar with amp and distortion pedal. I’m so fucked

APPEARANCES BY RUM

My socks match Sister Starlight Shimmer today. Totally coincidental!

I’ve been working all morning, so I’m taking a break to eat. I have a million things to do so I feel like I’m sloughing off. But this is responsible, right?

Trying to be a good business owner this morning but all I want to do is angrily/angstily strum my guitar

Staying up late. Making bad decisions (listening to Radiohead and Oasis and Bush)

Playlist of the day tidal.com/playlist/f23...

If I hear one more positive thing about the Hallow app, I’m gonna stat slapping people. It’s a cash grab, data-mining, wolf in sheep’s clothing

“Come sail away, come sail away, come sail away with me,” said Frog. “But not on the back of a scorpion,” said Toad.

Snowboarding Olympic events are my ice skating

Maybe I have more memories in me than I have living left. Isn’t that a thought

Nothing like emo holiday songs to get in the Christmas mood

I’m probably too much. Is that okay? I’ve been spiraling and writing and listening to music and writing and praying and spiraling etc etc

I don’t get a Spotify wrapped this year bc I dropped that crap bc of its problematic policies and endorsements (I use Tidal instead) but it’s fun seeing all of yours

The rich and powerful aren't pedophiles in the sense that they're cursed with a condition that causes them to be attracted to children. No, they're pedophiles in the sense that they get off on exercising their power over the vulnerable.

Officially writing another book 📕 👀

Just popping in to say, I think I’m gonna start my own emo Catholic indie press in 2026 👀

Hello. Is it more normal over here or just same shit different site?

Apparently, I am on mastodon now. Because I’m a glutton…for social media

I am a bisexual Catholic woman with a teeny bit of Jewish heritage (and a a lot of Italian/Irish heritage!). I thought you should know so that if you don’t like that, you can get out quickly. But I’m not going anywhere!

Really tired of randos and sickos on twitter. Considering permanently deleting that app bc El*n is a nazi. But the community I have made…maybe one type of resistance is outlasting the oppressors? Idk. Very conflicting feelings abound

This is the only place I don’t put forth my writing or try to sell you my services. Be happy

Gwen Stefani’s Christmas album is a banger

Lolz didn’t buy candy coins for St. Nick’s Day and then Penny this morning said, of course, “He brings us chocolate coins because we like money and chocolate.” So I had to place a bulk order of them on Amazon to get them by tonight so I can shove them in the stinky shoes. The things we do for kids

My kind of Christmas

I signed. Fellow cis women, please sign too. Everyone else, please share actionnetwork.org/petitions/no...

Of course I’m excited about Carlo and Pier Giorgio but what about my girl Chiara Luce

Me liking both punk bands with Roman Catholic backgrounds (FOB, MCR, Blink 182) and Hanson with Greek Orthodox background 🤝 Is this the Church breathing with both lungs?

Failing at being on here more

My former students are all like whole-ass adults now with marriages and babies and beards. The youngest also turned 30 this year which is definitely a whole-ass adult which means I’ve been a whole-ass adult for almost a decade and…oh shit

This feels kind of like the knitting club in the church basement— people past their prime in a place that was never up to par anyway

If you’ve followed me and think I should follow you back, let me know

No Kens showed up to Penny’s Barbie party and I’m a little upset

Maybe I will try being on here now instead of on the other place

The worst part about the obgyn is how they make you wait forever in a paper gown while they’re all fully clothed walking the halls

There is simply too much going on in my life and my dearest older daughter wants to add 2 more things to our plate. I just…can we not?
