Dolly Parton helped millions of children learn how to read and saved millions of lives by funding COVID vaccine research. She improved more people’s lives than almost any political leader in office. Her impact will be felt by generations.

if anyone is looking to fill out a pax panel, let it be known that i’m interested! particular areas of passion are disability / accessibility, religion, and identity exploration in ttrpgs.

text exchanges that occur when your pax unplugged group is full of chronically ill people (context: we can help each other administer subcutaneous medications)

A text exchange between Stevie and their friend Lilyth that reads as follows:

Lilyth: group stabbing at the table top convention
Stevie: my friend stabbed me at the pennsylvania convention center and all i got was this stupid t-shirt
Lilyth: last day of pax matching tshirts for the gang lmao

my forever partner in doomed siblings and i finally had a chance to play a truly devastating game of the time we have by @moreblueberries.bsky.social, though it periodically interrupted by *someone* who was mad she wasn’t being paid enough attention.

A small tortoise shell cat sits on top of various piles of cards from The Time We Have. The cards are from the survivor deck, laid out in such a way that it’s clear the game has been underway for some time. The cat has her back to the camera and tail outstretched, but she looks back behind her as if entirely innocent of all crimes.

The final card for The Time We Have, reading “Do you open the door?” in a stylized font, held up in front of a closed wooden door.

once you look at the statistics for the percentage and distribution of blonde adults you start caring a lot fucking less about whether there were like, brown and trans people in ancient greece. never mind all that, why the fuck is matt damon there.

the beautiful thing about injuring yourself while already disabled is that it’s like y’know what, you’re right. i actually didn’t feel like walking today anyways.

just realized my wheelchair is literally @pwhl--detroit.bsky.social colors. it’s black as a primary color, silver as a secondary color, and red as an accent color. that’s so beautiful.

we're simplyyy not doing everything we possibly can to knowledge-share among indie TTRPGs. why is it so hard to just find... lists of cons? distributors? other stuff??? the board game people are doing it!! i extrapolate 80% of what i need to know by lurking board game creator forum discussions!!!

happy belated tdov, my darlings. keep shining. keep creating. keep existing. i love you so much.

A much younger Stevie, approximately four years old, stares down the camera. They’re wearing Dora the Explorer pajamas and applying lipstick with one hand while holding back her hair with the other. There is lipstick across her eyes, eyebrows, and temples, almost resembling a goth or drag-esque makeup look.

A far more recent photo of Stevie, approximately a year ago, looking in a mirror while applying eyeshadow. They’re partway through a trad goth look, having a pale base, stark black contouring, and purple eyeshadow that spreads up to their brow and down their nose.

a really cathartic essay to write. there’s a lot of disabled grief and anger in this one. really proud of the final product so i hope you’ll give it a read. 🫶

The cover image of a Substack article. Large text at the top reads “the myth of a post-covid world” and slightly smaller text below reads “if you don’t wear a mask, you’re not as ‘woke’ as you think you are.” The background image is a collage of many photos. There’s a graph with colored lines rising and falling, Stevie playing down in a hospital gown while wearing a KF-94 mask, COVID viruses, and more. Small text at the bottom of the image reads “disabledgothic.substack.com.”

on my train today, the person in front of me was wearing a kf-94 mask. it was the first time in weeks i’d seen someone else masking and i nearly burst into tears. we really don’t talk enough about how isolating it is to be able to see visually just how little of the world cares about your life.

i was approached by a very old, very british woman who was absolutely fascinated by my outfit. i replied vaguely about how i simply enjoy dressing this way, which then prompted her to say “i think there’s a word for people who dress in all black— goth! are you goth?” …yes.

I'm saying amazing things about you in conversations you don't even know, in rooms you aren't aware exist. It's true. I wish I could engrave this upon your heart so that you know that people care about you even when you feel like no one does. Especially with you feel like no one does.

this is just like there it goes by maisie peters

A busy street full of people walking around, many of them holding shopping bags or bouquets of flowers. Each side of the road is lined with brick buildings, and there are smaller white tents in front of some of them with more vendors.

Flowers displayed in a vendor’s tent. There are colorful bunches of baby’s-breath and small sunflowers wrapped in brown paper.

A bird’s-eye view of a wooden table at a coffee shop. There is a mocha with simple latte art sitting on a large patterned coaster, a brownie with a small fork on a blue plate, and a Kindle displaying the cover of Carmilla.

being a chronically ill and disabled college student is all fun and games (actually it’s really not) until you have 24 hours left to finish your finals but you’ve been bedbound and sleeping all day since getting home
