I already limit my Tylenol intake to a pre-calculated micro-gram per kilogram ratio, allotted per year, cause I love my liver. Definitely still autistic idk

despite all my sage I am still just a witch not a mage

I do have a Venmo, and I don’t do, like, black magic or most hexes (aka any magic likely to backfire against my already-hobbled ass) but HEY, send me tips and wishes, I might light a candle just saying lol

Watching this Mariska Hargitay documentary and 😭😭😭😭

And let us thank whatever it is we can thank these days for that.

I AM A WITCH IT IS TRUE

we are playing “yes and” in my creative writing class & they’re in the process of composing a suburban horror where Jerry—a blue haired man w/Dahmer glasses—is about to learn a tragic lesson through fear in the form of Britney: a soccer mom with a taste for human blood and spit more potent than Oxy

The balance of the world tips on an unseen axis. Now is the hour to tip it in your favour.

The equinox is in two hours and two minutes Happy Mabon, witches

I live in fear someone in my family will propose we do a “handmade Christmas” because on the one hand, I’m poor, we should definitely do that, and on the other, I’m exhausted. You want me to make you a present? I can’t even make myself a baked potato

We talk about what gets funding and what doesn’t as a form of bias that contributes to systemic racism in my SciComm class

Today’s flower photos are mostly from a few weeks ago but I forgot to post them earlier. A variety of hibiscus (or rose of Sharon) in different shades of pink and purple.

What movie do you consider perfect?

Thinking about these archetypes Is it the world that breaks the mother into the crone? Or simply time? Who carries us all? At the end of the world?

Got it! Partial solar eclipse in Ōtautahi, New Zealand

Dr. Frizzle rocks.

Doing equinox magic, under the gloaming of an eclipse that won’t touch me, but is real, is real, is real

Too tired to post tonight, but here’s a preview! 😍

In the hospital, my wife slept and fought off her headaches and I spent the time trying to find better chairs and thinking about King Arthur and the goddess Sovereignty.

Might need to take a picture on the way home, but just passed a bunch of skeletons worshipping an American flag like a weird cult

Apparently there is a solar eclipse starting soon? Live coverage starts on this webcam at 2pm ET www.space.com/stargazing/s...

Bad news Bluesky. An hour ago my wife ordered chocolate. But she never actually pushed “order” and now it won’t accept our order. So we will have to leave our house if we wish to obtain chocolate today. Please give us space as we process this grave situation.

Shoutout to my neighbor who raised a flag across from our neighbor’s “don’t tread on me” one

My wife & I are currently having an EXISTENTIAL conversation, like, how WOULD we know if reality was real? And she [redacted] and said, I CAN FEEL THESE, THAT’S HOW I KNOW and I said, OK, but WHAT IF virtual reality really is only 100 years from being indistinguishable from reality?? THEN DARKNESS

Just passed a Model T Ford on the road and the people in it were dressed like flappers, so RIP, I guess I’ve entered a time loop We all knew it would end this way probably

I only ever put the name and date because KNOW THYSELF DOCTOR

my wife knows me too well, it’s rude

this year has been really hard because OUT OF NOWHERE I need reading glasses and sometimes I sit down to write and they are UPSTAIRS

In high school I drove my friends to early morning seminary in a brown Volkswagen Vanagon that had been totaled twice 😍

people will tell you they don't understand gender fluidity then look right at a ship called the Edmund Fitzgerald and call it "her" without missing a beat

The primary diff between writing fiction and nonfiction is when you write nonfic, you research a topic for 2 weeks and then write 1000 words on it and when you write fiction you research a topic for 2 weeks and get one sentence out of it.

Timely and evergreen both at once

what if, now hear me out here, we all got offline and went and ate cheese. Like, RIGHT NOW

I was about to fall asleep when I noticed my wife wasn’t in bed, so I psychically willed her to return with a Roast Beef Au Jus sandwich—lightly toasted, sauce salty, with a tang of pepper She came back with fruity pebbles, which is basically the same thing that’s how I know psychic love is real
