I didn't write a list about my favorite moments from a Watcher ep in a while so I decided to do it for the new GFAT one. I enjoyed the episode quite a bit, it was exquisite. :) Truly something special, one might say. @ryanbergara.bsky.social @shanemadej.bsky.social www.tumblr.com/noa-nighting...

Ryan talks about what to do when the ghosts aren’t knockin’, acknowledges the maglite haters and chooses a scariest haunted doll in this week’s episode of GHOST FILES DEBRIEF! youtu.be/mROFfssKFEU

Started writing the new short story yesterday and it is already over 2000 words long. :3

It’s October 7 again. 2 years. 24 months. 732 days. 17,568 hours. 48 hostages haven’t seen the sun in 2 years. They haven’t been fed properly in 24 months. They haven’t been hugged by their families in 732 days. They haven’t felt safe in 17,568 hours. BRING THEM HOME🎗️

In the planning phase for my next short story. There were supposed to be 3 named characters. There was not supposed to be a wizard. And yet, a wizard has made his way into the story once again. Once again! Why is it that every time I am trying to write a story, a damn wizard shows up! 📚 #writing

Over the Garden Wall season is almost upon us! 🍂🍁 Tomorrow starts my annual re-watch. :D

YES, I AM THE WORLDS GREATEST AUTHOR. YES, YOU ARE TOO

Happy Bisexual Pride Day, Watcher fandom! 💖💜💙 #bisexualprideday #watcherentertainment @wearewatcher.bsky.social

The Moby Dick audiobook is over 24 hours long and the only reason I am mentioning it is because I finished listening today and would like to brag about it. :3 It was my second time reading it; it's still one of my favorite classics. 🐳📘 #reading #classics #mobydick

The plan: A short story that is a little bit smutty and very gay. The reality: A longer story that got out of hand and now includes themes of communication issues in relationships, xenophobia & facing mortality. Still really gay though. #writing #writerlife #writer

On 27th August 2015, The Shepherd's Crown, the last book Sir Terry Pratchett completed before he died, was published. To mark the ten year anniversary, we have a message from Rob Wilkins:

I swear to God, naming characters for a short story is the greatest inconvenience EVER. Can't even give them placeholder names because the bastards would probably get stuck with them anyways. There are only 2 characters in this story and I have half a name lol. #writing #writerlife

I am trying to learn how to crochet for the fifth time or so. How do y'all do it. What are your secrets. This is so un-intuitive to me. Learning how to knit was much easier tbh. So much respect to people who are able to crochet because what even is this. #crochet #knitting #fiberarts 🧶

I am currently knitting a wizard cape for myself and I think I just have to accept the fact that I am a really slow knitter. I am using two stitches I have not used before (Stamen stitch & Andalusian stitch) which are both really easy. This will take a while but I can't be mad at it. :3 #knitting

Wrote 1470+ words today without planning to; I had the idea for a few scenes (without a story around them) and just... wrote them. There's also a wizard because let's face it, there is always a wizard. Like, I am not doing it on purpose. The bastards just keep showing up. #writing #writerlife

It's July 12th, the day Tyler's Pretty Terrible Generally No Good But Also Kind of Rad Adventure starts in my queer horror comedy, The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle. It's also Pride in my home province, Newfoundland! Read along (links below): #transhorror #indiehorror #indiebooks #queerhorror #transauthor

Finished revisions for my wizard story! It's now 10700 words long (deleted a few 100 words) & I had to chuckle about my own writing a few times. Next point on the agenda: revisions for book 3 of my trilogy. It has been slumbering for long enough; it's time to work on it again #writing #writerlife

Only 2 books left on my physical TBR! (Plus one on my secondary TBR, the audiobook of Moby Dick that I am listening to on-off, and the complete works of William Shakespeare lol.) There are still a ton of books on my wishlist and also bookmarked in my online library. 😊 #reading #readerlife #books

Two things that are true: a) It is very fucking difficult to be transgender. b) I love being transgender, I wouldn't change it for the world. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍⚧️

I finished the first draft of my story! I've been working on it for far longer than I meant to but now it's done. Over 11 000 words, & I am quite proud of it. It has a (female) wizard & an adventurer or two & it is gayyyy. Now, I'm letting it rest & ripen, & then it's revision time, baby! #writing

Happy Autistic Pride Day, Watcher fam! 💜 @wearewatcher.bsky.social @ryanbergara.bsky.social @shanemadej.bsky.social

If I can't visit a museum - any museum - anytime soon, I am going to explode. I want to look at EXHIBITS, goddamnit! I need to get my hands on INFO MATERIAL! Maybe even a BROCHURE! Argh!

I normally on other platforms, but since many have moved to BlueSky, it's time to start posting here as well, as I continue my journey in restarting my life since my return to Canada last year and focusing on my love for Texas Instruments TI99 Home Computers. Thanks. www.gofundme.com/f/garyopa-re...

Remaking my pinned to include my Itchio! If you're looking for a #queerbook by a #transauthor, I have two published novels. Itchio: steve-westenra.itch.io The Erstwhile Tyler Kyle (wide + paperback): books2read.com/u/boB9YL The Wings of Ashtaroth (eBook): books2read.com/u/49dn8Y #pridereads 🌈📚

Damn son, look at them arms! #watcherentertainment #ryanbergara #ghostfiles #ghostfilesdebrief

Currently reading: Africa Is Not a Country by Dipo Faloyin I am only 2 chapters in but already ✨invested✨(also, reading about Lagos gives me anxiety - I grew up in a small village; the thought of big cities scares me, & Lagos is a HUGE city) #booksky #books #reading #bookrecommendation #readerlife

Jonathan Joss--voice actor of John Redcorn from King of the Hill, and Ken Hotate from Parks and Rec--was killed in a homophobic hate crime today. I'm so angry.

Happy Pride, Watcher fam! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️ @wearewatcher.bsky.social @shanemadej.bsky.social @ryanbergara.bsky.social

I'll always lament the fact that @dominicnoble.bsky.social will prob never make the Lost in Adaptation I want to see the most cause a) I am not on his patreon & can't make requests & b) cause it's Crash (1996) based on the book by J.G.Ballard & yt probably won't like that level of ~spice~ very much.

Shabbat Shalom, everyone. May this be the last Shabbat we spend without the hostages coming home. 🎗

Well. Apart from some yarn scraps, my yarn stash is completely depleted. Time to pick the next project and get some more yarn. 🧶🥰 #knitting #fiberarts

Happy Glorious 25th of May! GNU Sir Terry Pratchett. How do they rise up? #Glorious25th #Discworld #TruthJusticeFreedomReasonablyPricedLove #Speakhisname

Truth! Justice! Freedom! Reasonably Priced Love! And a Hard-Boiled Egg! #TheGlorious25thOfMay #GNUTerryPratchett

Some older fan art since Pride Month is coming up (and I am posting it now because I am impatient lol). Thanks for making me feel comfortable as part of your fandom @wearewatcher.bsky.social 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️❤️ @ryanbergara.bsky.social @shanemadej.bsky.social (also for Steven but I don't think he is on bluesky?)

Btw my mother wrote her first fan fiction when she was in her 50s. It is never too late. #fanfiction

Petrichor!!!

The bee. <3 (Went on a walk. Saw bee. Took pictures of bee. Appreciated bee. The bee.) #bee

Happy birthday, Dad. Time to come back now, it’s all gone a bit rubbish without you. ❤️❤️❤️

I love the library! 💜💜💜

I finished reading The Death of Ivan Ilyich by Leo Tolstoy (German translation by Julie Goldbaum) today and now I don't know what to do with myself. #reading #tolstoy #literature

My two gay oars bracelet tattoos. :3 The one on the left wrist is from 2022, the one on the right wrist from earlier this year. I am very happy with them. I don't know if I will get more tattoos in the future but I love my gay oars tattoos! :D 🏳️‍🌈💕 @shanemadej.bsky.social @wearewatcher.bsky.social

Made progress with my short story today! I love writing these characters, and there is a wizard because let's face it, there is always a wizard. She's trans. :3 #writing #writerlife #writingcommunity

“Ariel will not be with us on the Seder night, but in this way, he will be present with us in so many homes.” Toam, Ariel and Kfir Bibas’s cousin, asked her kindergarten class to draw the orange butterfly recently named after Ariel and take it home to their families.

Bought 15mm knitting needles today. Don't have a project I want to use them for but they were too cool and I had to have them. (The biggest needles I had before that were 10mm which is also cool but these are 5mm cooler, y'know?) #knitting

Making progress with my Potato Chip scarf. 💖 #knitting

buckaroos know trans wizard harriet porber, but for trans day of visibility here are some less mentioned trans tingleverse characters. LOVE IS REAL FOR TRANS BUCKAROOS

Sock 2. It has a different color than the first one because I used yarn I already had instead of buying new yarn. Very happy with this. #knitting

Sock. <3 Knitted on straight needles, no heel, cotton, super simple. I am quite happy with it. #knitting

Apologies for the horrible quality but I've been rewatching Survival Mode (the Demonologist ep) and Ryan said he wanted to wear the dress. So here you go. Sorry @ryanbergara.bsky.social lol
