Any disruption in an established pattern, for me, triggers danger. Normally, it only becomes personalized if I peep that you are active on social media but not with me. If you’re not a person that wants to talk every day then don’t talk every day ‘cause once you stop, imma think something is up.

Just finished writing my grandmother's obituary and I feel like I just ran up and down a mountain. How does one faithfully record 101 years of one woman's walk in this world? There are truly not enough words to hold the beautiful waters of her life.

Le Guin on the idea that there is a secret to getting good at writing.

I will dispose of the first myth as quickly as possible. The “secret” is skill. If you haven’t learned how to do something, the people who have may seem to be magicians, possessors of mysterious secrets. In a fairly simple art, such as making pie crust, there are certain teachable “secrets” of method that lead almost infallibly to good results; but in any complex art, such as housekeeping, piano-playing, clothes-making, or story-writing, there are so many techniques, skills, choices of method, so many variables, so many “secrets,” some teachable and some not, that you can learn them only by methodical, repeated, long-continued practice — in other words, by work.

Older lady peeped the rainbow flag on my bike, asked in a thick Russian accent “It’s your Pride?” She told me her youngest grandchild is “not she berry or he berry but no berry.” I said “Nonbinary?” She got so excited. Yes! Yes! And “Is a secret, but they are my“ *looks around, whispers* “favorite.”

My coworker was shocked that I don't have a love life and it's like...are folks paying attention to the social order? I am a Black, plus-sized nonbinary fem in a community/world that doesn't see it for me unless I'm entertaining them. I hate to stack and rank 'identities', but let's be realistic!

I need someone to explain to me why the concept of a she/her gay is so unfathomable and why fem identity amongst those assigned male at birth is so wholly and violently objected to. Explain it to me like I'm five. NO WAIT. No explanation needed. I already know why. :-) I hate it here.
