One thing that makes me feel old is when I try to get the kids to use my computer and they look at the mouse like it’s an ancient relic and try touching the monitor.

Specifically remember several times when I did marital counseling where the problem of money always landed at my feet. If we didn’t have cough I had to get a second job, or figure out a career path and stay on it. Always my fault. No room to ask if i wasnt made to be a breadwinner

The doctor asked how I got so much grey hair at my age. I told them how old my kids are.

I got two job rejections today to start my week off, unfortunately. I appreciate all of your support. If you'd like to help, the best way is to buy my books and spread the word to other folks. If you love magical girls, trans women, and lesbians, you'll probably love them too. magicariot.com/buy

Artwork of the book covers of "Magica Riot" and "Magica Riot: Full Bloom," set against a background of purple crystal. Artwork of several main characters - Bloom, Claire, Nova, Hikari, Sara, Iris, Cass, and Hana - surround the book art. Text reads:

Lesbians! Trans girls! Musical magic! Gross monsters! Evil corpos! Cool band van! Portland weird! Agender hacker! Leftist cuties! Drum swears! They're adults! Hope & optimism! Sincerity!

You voted for Trump twice, you kicked out your queer kids, you made your church MAGA friendly and, instead of owning your shit decisions, you want to name estrangement as a epidemic just like the “male loneliness epidemic,” and expect us to take it seriously? Fuck. Off.

When I was a girl, I ate one dozen eggs Ev'ry morning to help me get large

"Chun-Li is all kicks. So we did a bunch of Taekwondo training, Muay Thai, and Wushu (Kung Fu). I did two hours of that a day and strengthened my legs a lot and changed my diet drastically. When I was bulking, I ate 12 eggs a day. Every two hours I had to have a meal, and I was on the verge of throwing up. But it worked. By the end of the shoot, my thighs had grown six-and-a-half centimeters each,” she said in an August interview with Empire Magazine.

I am happy to announce that "Magica Riot" is this year's Indie Ink Award winner for "Best Light Read." When I started this series I had no idea of all the places it'd take me and the amazing works by my peers it would stand alongside. So many thanks to the judges & my readers! 💜 magicariot.com

I’m 31 now, so I was six when it happened, and my memories are vague but I remember even at that young an age, homeschooled and completely cut off from the entire outside world, my mom bought insanely hard into the fear more than anything

For younger people who were not there... Know that this country did not come together after 9/11. They went after every brown skinned person they could. Americans didn't know the difference between a Arab and a Sikh. We perpetrated and tolerated violence and misinformation on these people.

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

Wade still thinks she's cute. #PetraParker

Petra Parker has a hand up to her face while Deadpool holds out Jeff the landshark to her. Deadpool says "Congrats on the lady-hood! This one isn't Swedish but he still loves you. Welcome to a whole new world of misogyny and public ridicule." and Petra responds with "Thanks..." Deadpool is also wearing a pin on his chest that says "Proud mom" in rainbow colors.
