When you order a burrito from Taco Bell that has never had lettuce in it & doesn't now, so you start munching away & something falls, & you look down to see a piece of lettuce that fell out of the wrapper 🫠 Let's hope Taco Bell stopped the problematic lettuce & I'm not about to get The Parasite(TM)

Thank you so, so much to the people who just helped me 😭 I've got enough money to eat now and won't go into the red in my bank. Truly, thank you. I don't have many in my life who can help me, so this community is my lifeline 💜 Next month I will be fine, I'm finally settled in a hotel where...

My uber driver this morning was a dick. I had no help moving all my stuff, and he ignored me when I said I was disabled and I needed a few extra minutes. He complained to someone on the phone and just watched me struggle. Told me he couldn't wait anymore. POTS was flaring badly, too...

I haven't talked about my poetry and art collection in a little while, but I really am proud of it. I hand-drew as much as I could of it, even the titles of each poem. Some drawings contain prose. This book has years of raw, honest work in it. It's my truth.

If the universe could fuckin chill for A FEW DAYS I'd appreciate it. I haven't slept in 2 weeks for more than 2-4 hours a night. I'm chronically ill. My cats are being repeatedly traumatized & uprooted and I have agoraphobia & ptsd related to homelessness and loss. I'm actively in a MH crisis.

Some semi-good news and some bad news. Bad: emotional support animals are no longer protected like service animals are, so places here can reject them. This means there will be a pet fee at the hotel, but the apartment insurance should cover it.

I finally opened up the manuscript for book 3, the last book, in The Requiem Series. The last time I'd opened it was October of last year, back when I nearly took my own life. It kind of faded into the background and I got caught up in healing work afterward. Seeing it tonight, though...

I'm exhausted from all the stress and my current displacement crisis, but I have been writing a lot of poetry. It seems to be the only way I can express my emotions that have otherwise numbed on the outside. Survival mode's a hell of a drug. My case manager disappeared too, so I'm just... 🫠

It's been a wild few months, but last weekend and yesterday has taken the cake. My life has been upended in the worst way and I need some help. I've lost a support option, and I am living in a hotel for possibly up to three months as my apartment was damaged by a severe plumbing disaster. 🧵 1/?

I'm working on something that has me so excited. I'm writing a goth theatrical musical about dissociating so hard a creature ends up in a strange blue void in his living room, and it has campy vibes that feel like RHPS. It's all written in verse, of course, so it'll take ages but! I'm excited! 🤩

Last night, the poem went through a major revision and I finished it. I'm so happy with it. I put a lot of effort into this one, I refused to let the brain fog stop me. I'll post the final version soon 💜 It's a lot spicier, but all in 'garden' metaphor.

Finally, after weeks of terrible brain fog and worsening chronic illness, I started to write a poem last night. It's not done yet, I think I want it to be longer, but it's something. I'm so glad my brain still works creatively, even when I'm struggling to focus 💜

I once dreamed of you
late in the night,
your hands on my skin
and our bodies close,
rocking to a beat
that matched our hearts

A secret held
as you held me;
a key to a blooming garden
I didn't know was mine

When you joined me
in the garden,
we both turned the key,
and the blooming swelled
as the air trembled

You mapped my skin
like tracing constellations,
your fingertips sparking
shimmering stars over the garden

So I remembered that Affirm exists and it has been the only thing that has enabled me to get nice things for years, so I bought Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream using Affirm, meaning $0 up front and cheap payments over 6 months. So I get to play 🥲

It's been a bit since I've shared my work, but money is going to be extremely tight this month, so I could use the extra income. All of my current work is up on Itch right now, which is one of the best ways to support me. I barely get enough to live on while disabled, so any sales help greatly 🙏🏻

From another WIP I haven't talked about in a minute, called Nightdreams 💜 #WIPSnips

Star’s eyes settled on mine, searching for something. I gave him a moment to process everything and held his gaze steady.
He cleared his throat and picked up one of the Polaroids again to look at it. The one with me and David. We’d thrown our arms around each other’s shoulders and smiled at the camera, which had been operated by the friendly crab. “So how long have you been doing this? Going there?”
“For a little bit now. But there’s this whole thing I have to adhere to, a deal I made with Nightmare.”
“Nightmare?” Star glanced up at me. “A figure named Nightmare, and not the dream-type?”
I nodded. “Right. Nightmare introduced itself to me when I’d drawn my first card from the deck. It explained to me what was happening, and it made a deal with me since I’d interfered.”
“That sounds dangerous,” Star said as he relaxed a little. “What was the deal?”

“Praise be to the God King of blood and the God Queen of flesh,” Tom started, causing Amy to look up again.
Praise be to fucking who? She groaned internally as she watched how everyone at the table lifted their palms towards the ceiling. A single look from Lucius her way made her reluctantly join in. Guess we’re doing the cult thing…

The first positive poem I've written in several years 💜

You found me through the purple fog
reached in and held me tight
before you knew who you were holding
before you knew what we’d become

I was simply enduring and ready to die
but you held space for me and didn’t flinch
you didn’t run from my darkness
and now I’m living

You taught me how to love
how to feel and laugh and glow
and you banished the shadows
lurking in the bleakest corners of my soul

I forgot about the pain
all of the years of torment I’ve endured
I only saw you
and the life you breathed back into me

You are my always, my home
a warm blanket on a freezing winter night
a light in the stygian abyss of the mind
the shield that protects me when I’m exposed

You are the spring that comes after the snow
a soft piano playing on a rainy day
you are the warmth that thawed my heart
the air that flowed back into my lungs

How interesting we are together
the scholar and the playful menace
I wouldn’t be anywhere but here
and we will walk this road together

The opening of the first chapter of the new book I'm writing. It's the longest first chapter I've ever written 🙈 (5,600 words). I usually keep my chapters 3k or less, but this book has a lot to say.

Downtown was relatively quiet as I sat on a freezing cold bench. Snow fell softly to settle at my shoulders, and I shivered in the black hoodie that wasn’t nearly warm enough for the weather. It didn’t matter. I didn’t care if I froze to death.
My hand was partially numb as I pulled out my phone, and I opened the messages app. I stared blankly at my mom’s last text as guilt flooded into my chest, and I read it several times, warring with myself.
Are you still coming over today for Christmas? I hope you’re okay, haven’t heard from you all morning.
I turned the screen off again and took in a deep, frigid breath. My body was worn down by the chronic fatigue syndrome that made me feel like a dead weight even on the good days, and POTS was threatening as my heart rate began to increase. I shouldn’t have gone all the way out there. I shouldn’t have pushed it. I should have just stayed home and cried and stayed miserable by myself.
But I couldn’t cry. I could only feel the asphyxiating ache of it. I hadn’t been able to cry in years.
“Excuse me,” a deep, British voice with a London accent said.
I glanced up with tired eyes. A tall, fair-skinned elf with brown hair tied back in a high ponytail looked down at me. He wore gold-rimmed round glasses, a light gray turtleneck sweater with black slacks, and a tan wool coat.
I looked away awkwardly, not wanting him to see the raw pain in my eyes. I adjusted my large, black plastic-rimmed glasses to occupy my hand. “Yeah? Can I help you?”
“Are you alright? Do you need a lift home?”

Shane💀Blackheart (they/them) @shaneblackheart.com · 25/03/2026

I just started writing a new story today, and I knew this word was in there already 💜 #WIPSnips

I took a breath as my heart thudded. “I’ll be okay, truly. I don’t want to keep you from your plans.”
When the elf smiled, my mind stopped spinning. It was gentle and genuine, and when it reached his eyes, I noticed they were red.
A vampire. During the day, at that. He was very old, that was certain, as any vampire walking during the day would be, but his appearance wasn’t striking or aged. His face was soft and beautiful for a man, and being an elf, I could only imagine just how ancient he was. He looked no older than thirty.
“You’re not keeping me from any plans, I promise.” He held out a hand. “Here, let me help you up. And stand slowly so you don’t get dizzy or fall.”
He’d sensed my illnesses. Of course, a vampire would be able to hear a heart beating as fast as mine was. “I’m okay, really. I can head home, it isn’t far.”
The vampire elf maintained that kind smile as he wiggled his fingers. “At least let me help you warm up a little before you go. My office is just upstairs, right next to the coffee shop.”
