Being AuDHD is weird for many reasons but I think my favorite is just how odd & specific the special interests get Sometimes it's regional license plate lore, sometimes Portuguese reality TV—right now I'm getting an insane amount of dopamine from New Zealand newspapers 👀🤣💀 we love to see it lmao ✨

I started up a Tumblr for all of my pieces that don't and probably won't ever fit any submission calls. Also just a place where I'm generally free to write as wacky as I want ✨ Tonight's post: Subject: RE: U Comin' Down For Spring Break?

What was the first album you bought with your own money? Mine was Hard Candy by Counting Crows — from the KMart down the street that was liquidating 😶‍🌫️ 💕

Thinking about the time my 5th grade Spanish teacher randomly asked if anyone knew the opening line of Moby Dick & I ended up being the only one who knew the answer. Señor was impressed, classmates thought I was well-read, no one knew that I had actually picked it up from Dave Barry in Cyberspace 😇✨

It's come to my attention that most folks know very little about psychosis & what it does to your perception of reality. So, I want to share my story. I can't speak for anyone else who has grappled with this, nor can I diagnose. It's just a recounting of what happened to me /thread (TW, of course)

Breaks my heart how modern hyper-vigilance has led to a cultural shift towards casual cruelty as a means of self-protection. Trying to talk about it leads to commentary about how no one owes each other anything. Although this also means that Basic Kindness is Punk✨ Happy to be Punk AF these days💗

3rd in my group for NYC Midnight's Rhyming Story challenge! I had a few clunky rhymes in there that I was worried about, very relieved that the piece was strong enough for the judges to overlook those parts. Onward to Round 2! #NYCM #NYCMidnight #RhymingStory #writing

First time ever posting this! I won a small indie writing contest on reddit back in '19 - prompt was to create a Hero/Villain duo and have them duke it out ✨ It's a bit silly and niche, but it's often the W that keeps me going 😅❤️ hope y'all enjoy! tinyurl.com/hv3b5tre

The guy in charge of my favorite Zine announced that he was moving onto his next big thing - now he's just posting hours long streams of himself eating boiled hotdogs and stacking dice while logging data from retro video game runs under halogen lighting. So uh - any other zines y'all can recommend?

1 thing I love about writers is that they get how dumb it is IRL when complicated problems need complicated solutions. Writers just let a genius character look at the math and say something stupid like "WE HAVE TO ROTATE IT" - rotate what?? No one knows! But everyone gasps so you know it's serious.
