Please tell all your peeps in the North Bay. I know there are a lot of awesome nerds on the other side of the Golden Gate Bridge who can't always make it into SF for book events, and I'd love to see y'all there <3

Hyper-mobile/EDS/Fibro folks: my daughter (23) has hypermobility and lots of pain, especially in her hips and back. She’s looking for recs for pillows to build her nightly fort. What do you recommend? She is on a budget but we understand it may be a special expenditure.

Izolde is an awesome part of our local trans community here in SF, and she regularly comes to Trans Nerd Meet Up. If you can spare any $$ to help her stay housed, please help! <3

1 day to go! THAT'S ONLY ONE DAY TO GO!!!!

Blessed Autumnal Equinox to you all. (I took this yesterday, which was a good move since it’s raining like a firehouse outside today.)

Good afternoon, Bluesky. Here is your weekly reminder to take your HRT, medications, and vitamins. Each week I'm able to share a new HRT still life is a small triumph. 🏳️‍⚧️

Happy birthday Billie Piper

A great video reminding us that the resistance is literally not being televised, and that there are lots of voices clamoring against this administration -- so get out there and clamor.

Hey! My #birthday is tomorrow $nailsthatglow I want to go get a spa treatment. Or Go to get more make-up Or If you send me enough, go to an all gender strip club. Or Just buy myself treats.

OK saw Pain Management today. Got shots to lower back and exercises to do. The doctor was shocked that the person at Jefferson didn't immediately recommend surgery for my neck. She's sending me to a better neurosurgeon. So waiting on that call. Keep a good thought.

Teslas are not built for humans.

How I feel about Kristie.

Just sayin'

Pro tips from a woman. If you are a man who says "actually," whenever a woman talks, stop doing that. No, really. STOP IT.

Why can’t all my doctors be Dr. Lipkin-Moore? He is the best doctor and the kindest, most wonderful human I’ve ever encountered in a medical setting. Love this man for real. #NEISvoid

If you're not eligible on the NHS (and most of us aren't 🙄), private autumn COVID vaccinations are now available in the UK, if you can find a pharmacy that stocks it, and can afford it 🙄 I was able to get the Comirnaty LP.8.1 (Pfizer/BioNTech) vaccine today. pharmadoctor.co.uk/patient/serv...

A cheerful sight. 💚🌱✌️Happy Friday.

I'm very proud that this month I've had two politically-inspired stories published. 'Been A While Since Bad Things Only Happened to Other People' @bulbculture.bsky.social www.bulbculturecollective.com/read/been-a-... and 'The Tenth Testicle' newflashfiction.com/the-tenth-te...

I've been forgetting to mention that two of my pictures are on display (and *cough* for sale) in the Windermere Room at the Ladyholme Centre in Windermere. There are also artworks by other members of my monthly pastels group and I'm genuinely blown away to have my art featured in such good company.

Pleased and happy to say that I got my covid (pfizer), flu, rsv, & pneumonia vaxes today. Very relieved. May everyone have as easy a time as I did.

Hot take: If you make a baby smile, you have had a more successful day than any billionaire who only made money.

I just did two hours of paperwork 😭 I think that's all I need to do today... and I think I can just focus on rest and self-care for the weekend. And deep breaths. Lots of deep breaths.

Includes 2 poems by me!

#FantasyIndiesSeptember #WritingCommunity Day 19 Mochi is the most adorable little writing assistant...when she's not standing in front of the laptop demanding attention, that is! 🤣

I used several references for this. Made my one composition. But it's still kinda study. Also there is a process video, but unfortunately Bluesky does not allow me to upload it. Sigh. Maybe later I'll upload it on youtube. #art #sunset #nature

Catch me and get books signed at The Spot in Seattle on September 28th. Thanks to Pandem and Cascade Writers for inviting me. I'll have copies of the four current books in the Amakai series, as well as something published under a pseudonym in 2016. 💚🧚🏼‍♀️

4 days to go! that’s only HALF of the number of arms and legs an octopus has. i looked this one up specifically just to make extra sure since i got the amount of michi's toes wrong yesterday. it turns out they have 6 arms and 2 legs. the more you know
