Making plans for moving is stressing all of us. It also displays how much progress I've made in healing, though. I'm not automatically panicking, and I can approach this with organized plans.

As I promised, here's the Litany Against Fear tarot reading done with the Dune cards. lknesse.blogspot.com/2026/07/lita...

It's not surprising to find out there are people who think Sword & Sorcery isn't for women and shouldn't be weird. Those people are very wrong. I'm just, unfortunately, not surprised. This article explains the wrongness. reactormag.com/the-rebirth-...

So they rejected voting on permanent standard time, and also said states that are already on permanent standard can opt out of permanent DST. This sounds like they want it to be a problem.

My cat seems to think I'm doing a good job. I dare not argue with her. She is a cat.

Happy International Non-Binary People's Day!

I wrote about what looks very much like a formal US plan to institutionalize a global network of concentration camps.

I promise not to spend the next couple of months posting nothing but "Please buy stuff! We have to move!", but a lot of time is going to be spent on packing boxes and throwing stuff out.

We have a couple of months to prepare for the move. Moving costs money, so if you've been wanting my stories, poems, art journal solo rpg, learning to do dice divination, or a divination reading for yourself...

The innocence in her eyes knows depths she never voices oceans upon oceans of lessons what becomes vulnerability started off as refusal to be numb I've let every damnation kill me the innocence in her eyes is reflection of acceptance hell has always been real #poetry

We found out we're going to be moving. So... Whew! Look at plans for this year burning in that dumpster fire! If you only get one chance to wish for my family to get something we want, please use that wish now! Plans are being made, but the only certain thing is we have to move.

My inspiration for the Forest is the woods I wandered around in while growing up. The Forest will always be home. 💜

Casual reminder that today is the LAST DAY to get any of my courses! These courses *will not* be coming back in a different format. #WitchSky #PaganSky Here is what one of my students has to say about my work:

This week's three card tarot reading is up on my blog, and yes, I used the Dune cards! lknesse.blogspot.com/2026/07/week...

300 pages at nine years old was normal when I was a kid 😭

Just got some news that I know is going to be good for us longterm, but the rest of this year is going to be wilder than I wanted. That 3 card reading I did for this week now applies in ways I hadn't expected.

Alfred Nobel established the Nobel Prize after wake up call: newspapers mistakenly published his obituary when his brother died & what he read as his legacy horrified him speaking ill (factually) of the dead is literally the most effective way to curb living racist & Nazi public figures/politicians

I see ppl discussing gender-critical "gamete trutherism" today, so I will re-up this essay thoroughly debunking it:

Do you want a grown-up fairytale about a trans woman going on a quest to save her sisters? Set in the future when humans are no longer top of the food chain? And Bad Luck is a lesbian? OF COURSE YOU DO! Behold: 🌺MISERY'S WIFE🌺 by Joan Tierney! Out in the US next week!!!

If you don't want people to call you an asshole when you're dead, don't be an asshole while you're alive.

Finished knitting the bag for my new cards!

Every time I open the app today, @cpsc.gov is reposting somebody's horse art and I am completely distracted.

While at the Fred Rogers Institute, was not prepared for the feelings of seeing the last cardigan the mom of Mister Fred Rogers ever knit for him 🥹🩶✨

not saying anything new, but if these folks actually believed in genAI writing, they'd disclose it, tout it, and build their own audiences elsewhere and leave others be. hiding and sneaking it to markets who want no part of it doesn't prove you're good at writing. just proves you're good at fraud.

Knitting a new bag for my new cards.

Excellent point about men who choose to force survivors of their abuse to go public because their ego won’t let them withdraw quietly.

I shove it all down in a bottle in the cellar, all the self hate & loathing, the failures & regrets buried deep, or so it seems, until one tiny thing happens & the seal breaks & all of it come spilling out all at once & suddenly I'm drowning in everything that's wrong with me. #mpprompt

This comic is a Rorshach test. In your head, when you read this... Was the speaker you? Or somebody else?

I am writing more Forest stories, but I don't currently have a set plan for when to release them. The Forest happens as it happens. My intention is that we'll revisit several times as I also write other things.

My tonsillectomy just got scheduled for the 24th and I need to stock up on things like non-dairy ice cream and that's not going to be cheap. If anyone wants to toss me a little to help with that I would appreciate that a ton! 🩷 ko-fi.com/creatrixarca...

Since I've had people express their concern about my prices being too cheap, I explain in this blog post why I price things as I do. lknesse.blogspot.com/2026/04/payh...

As promised to link to my first actual Hookland book. It is only small, but covers a lot of the ghost soil. If enough of you buy it and like it there will be a Volume Two. www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1068598123 It will also be available in an actual bookshop soon.

Oh no, Bonnie Tyler! I usually just accept that famous people die - because they're people - and I don't actually know them just because I know their work. This hits in a way I didn't expect. Her music kept me company a lot when I was a kid.

A comix anthology for all my neurofabulous friends. I backed it and think you should, too!

If you want some little escapes into a different world, I've got six short stories that will take you to the Forest.

I sit before my desktop, SHIFTlessly, regarding my keyboard, noTABly; some keys have pulled a switch on me. PAUSE is behaving hesitantly; ENTER seems depressed, apparently, acting mechanically, #defiantly. I can't unlock the HOME button; the TILDE has escaped, and I've lost all CTRLs. #vss365

I have my cards! I promise to show everyone my Litany Against Fear reading done with the Dune cards!

you've been seeing me talk about my novel, The Prince's Fighters, for at least a year as i've published it serially now you can buy a copy and read it offline!

Hey, could somebody getting these 20 min phone calls with Mitch McConnell ask him about the Islamic Republic of Japan?

Four drawings of four mythical beasts that i drew for a zine. It was called ovo and it was round. #sfedrawing

It's only been five months, and somehow this is relevant again.

If someone asks you to pay them in crypto, assume they are a crook.
