i’d make an analogy about novel writing being like flying a plane but considering i’ve never done either (the former, not until now) that probably wouldn’t have landed well

It physically hurts my heart when someone misgenders me but I am patient when it comes to people who knew me pre-transition. But pls know what I am not a woman by any means, even though I know for the majority of our life, that's how you knew me

the new Olivia Rodrigo album proves that the girlies no longer want to yearn, but need to perhaps get on some SSRIs and process their feelings in therapy (in a good way, I love that LOVE MAKES US UNHINGED but also realizing romance is not central to our being)

What I have learned from AWP so far: We all have the resilience and resourcefulness of undergrads, as all of us love free swag and when orgs feed us.

Shout out to the Saturn in Aries babies and clients who came to me four years ago in a daze, attempting to brute force their way into prepping for this transit. It’s your time now 🥹

I only say that because I went out on my first dates in a year or so, and realized that I could no longer give pieces of myself up like I did with my most recent exes. But also, this new person I'm seeing is cute even though we watched Hamnet, which is not a date movie but oh well lol

christa @christalei.me · 02/03/2026

One of the reasons I knew my ex and I were going to break up besides the obvious and complete lack of respect for me, was that they did not understand or watch "Everything Everywhere All At Once" to completion. Once. It was "too busy" for them and they didn't get it. If there was any one film (1/2)

Are some of these exhibition gala programs racist? Yeah, pretty much.

There was a website that used to post a series about people’s little black books (aka the hit list/people you screwed) and it was usually anonymous. That was my first piece of published writing at ~21? And it was anonymous. Miss u, magazine

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

I resent the romanticism of writing in isolation. I blame Thoreau for it (thoroughly, pun intended) but even so, I'm never writing alone. Even if I'm by myself. Even if I'm in nature. I'm in good company, and my writing infuses every bit of inspiration and the love of others in its DNA.

christa @christalei.me · 09/01/2026

writing about exes that you're still friends with is challenging, but you can warn them ahead of time AND change their names lol

i think adding a lot of mozart's life (tho obvs with the source material, still liberties taken) added a lot of flavour that deepens it. but god i wanted this to be gayer

christa @christalei.me · 06/01/2026

obviously i still prefer milos forman's adapation of AMADEUS but something about the new will sharpe & paul bettany one adds some flavor. and some gay. and a lot of diversity.

It really cannot be emphasized enough that the Holocaust was modeled after the American campaign to displace and exterminate Indigenous people. This country drew up that blueprint.

The New School owns about a billion dollars worth of art, most of which is not on display. They could sell the two Warhols they own and raise $100 million tomorrow. But they’d rather close academic departments.
