33 year old millennial still trying to figure life out. Still trying to find a remotely flattering photo of myself here. Will get on that soon! I have a keen interest in science, public health, nature, film/media analysis and cats! Cancer survivor.

Never in my 33 years of life did I imagine I'd bear witness to reckless, sociopathic oligarchs vying to dismantle federal government. I tried warning folks the first time he ran for office. If you can't see the threat he poses to average, everyday Americans, nothing will convince you at this point.

I worry constantly about access to my life-saving type 1 diabetes medications. Meanwhile, conservatives still laud themselves as the "pro-life" party, while protecting the interests of corporate insurance entities denying coverage to people in desperate need to survive. Absolutely baffling.

Not sure how common an occurrence this may be, but I've noticed a difference in the color of my beard and eyebrow hair growth since finishing chemotherapy... lighter brown and almost blonde hairs in many spots. I'm not sure why I felt compelled to share this but here we are...

Whatever narrative those with enormous wealth and power deem fitting, it will never change with reality of systemic injustices in our society: massive class disparities, corporate corruption, a costly and often inaccessible medical system, racism, homelessness and an ever growing housing crisis.

After two major surgeries to remove malignant masses and five months of intensive chemotherapy, I am officially cancer free. Sadly, my mother is terminally ill. While hopelessness clouds my mind often, I refuse to accept bigotry, intolerance and blind fanaticism. Never lose sight of your principles.

Loving bsky.app. Lovely community of interesting and supportive folks. A refreshing change to the toxic environment of X.
