Life is so vulnerable. All of us go down to the dust, yet even at the grave we make our song: Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia. 000
Laura @laurakristen84.bsky.social · 24/09/2025I don’t know how visible I actually am on this platform, but today is #BiVisibilityDay so here I am, visible, I guess. Claiming a bisexual identity feels complicated to me, so I keep it pretty quiet.
