Went to a nude beach and spent the whole time searching for colorful bits of sand 🖤🩶🤍💜 Most of it was glass but one piece was a pretty green mineral

Listening to Fugitive Telemetry and really missing our “lawyer version of a combat bot” Pin-Lee. I’m enjoying the show and I even like their Pin-Lee but I’m a little sad we’re not getting book Pin-Lee on screen in Murderbot

Got inspired and made my first cross stitch pattern yesterday. I’m going to need to make several of these and gift them around 🔇

Quote repost with your pride flags! I spent a lot of time figuring out my identity to ultimately just toss it all under “queer” but visibility matters so here at the communities I identify with most ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Girl, SAME. “I can’t tell you how heartbreaking and frustrating and exhausting it is to be a federal scientist,” one federal worker told Mother Jones recently. “I still love my job and the mission of my agency, and I truly and fervently hope I don’t lose it.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Top surgery is actually happening. I’m waiting for a call in a week or two to schedule surgery - it could be this summer! It’s been such a long time coming and I’m so relieved. Please send good vibes for the final stages in this process #queer #enby #topsurgery

Just your regular friendly reminder that Murderbot uses it/it's pronouns Murderbot is canonically asexual, agender, and not human and very much likes it that way I know it's hard (I'm still fucking it up regularly esp when looking at Skarsgard) but it is a central part of the character #murderbot

This week’s Murderbot episode is criminally short but I almost have a bingo! (Yes, I realize I could have gotten a bingo with “human’s shouldn’t do their own security” but I decided to be strict last week and wait for Murderbot to say it 😠) #Murderbot #MurderbotBingo @marthawells.com

Are any of my mending/cross-stitching folks doing debranding? I thrifted this cute hat and really hate the dark brand name on the light background Will it look bad if I rip out the embroidery? Is it better to cover it up? #debranding #mending #thrifting #thrifted #ClothingAlteration

Gentle reminder that Murderbot uses it/its pronouns in the book and show I know it’s hard not to use he/him looking at Skarsgård but Murderbot is canonically genderless and sexless and it likes it that way #Murderbot

Murderbot bingo update! Episode 3 in orange. So much “snark is off the charts” and “Ratthi being a gem” that we had to check them off again #Murderbot #MurderbotBingo #AppleTV @marthawells.com

I WANT TO HUG MURDERBOT BUT I WON’T

Murderbot absolutely should have been played by a genderqueer person but I begrudgingly admit that Alexander Skarsgård is doing great job. All the casting is great really. Akshay Khanna as Ratthi is truly a gem #Murderbot #AppleTV

No change in the bingo card after episode 2 but I’ve started a list of “not on my bingo card”. We absolutely could have predicted eye contact and alien remnants but diminutive nicknames for Gurathin? Never would have expected it but I love it
