Vibing with everyone’s legacy hopes—representation, joyful experiences, and causing good trouble ✨ I also hope, above all, I help young readers temper their compassion with evidence. #PretendPanel #WritingCommunity #Writers #Authors #Writesky

What’s weird about all the >1000 word pieces on “Whither Bluesky?” is that the state of the world is actually what’s problematic right now. If we fixed that, Bluesky would be better. Foreground the foreground. Also who are you really mad at exactly?

With my wife being ace and my oldest and me demi, we often lament the obligatory partner as the prize (usually girl). Might be wrong, but seems like mainstream storytelling makes rewards of romance and sex into expectations 🤷‍♀️ #LGBTQWriteAThon #QueerWriters #pride #writesky #writingcommunity

I want marginalized kids to fall in love with science, see themselves as scientists, and visualize a better future for themselves and others. 💖✨Also, to normalize love across the spectrum, make it accessible and attainable. #LGBTQWriteAThon #QueerWriters #pride #writesky #writingcommunity
