I guess it was bound to happen sometime, but I'm still sad. They finally tore down the most picturesque derelict structure in Georgetown #DC
I am seldom overtly political here, but I want to say a thing out loud.
A right to bodily autonomy isn't conditioned on being a rape or incest survivor. We must not create special circumstances when we recognize a woman's right to avail herself of family planning services or medical care.
It's her body. The decisions are hers, in consultation she takes with her doctor, and influenced, to the extent she elects, by her partner.
That's it.
Identical philosophy applies to trans folks.
I've hit that point in my latest effort where the characters are refusing to cooperate. They won't do what I planned for them to do, they go off and do other things. That's when I know I've got a good feel for who they are, because when I let them do their own thing, it reads better. If I try to force it, it reads clunky.
I just finished writing a short story about the frustrated ghost who cannot get its way because of cats.
I decided to name it "Haunted by Hairballs"
I had so much fun writing that story that I'm now seriously considering to figure out how could I get a novel out of it.

I had a missed call from my doctor's office. Must be for my mother. Their automated system can't seem to wrap itself around the idea that she's no longer a patient.
But at first I thought was it for me? Do I have an appointment that I'm forgetting?
I logged into their patient portal and my next appt is not for months. I had to laugh though, for that next appt, it says the reason for my visit is:
F/U
....uhm... maybe not a great way to abbreviate Follow Up....
And yes, I am 12 years old.
Been experimenting with some new vertical canvas sizes and I just added this cutie to my collection called "Bambi", hope you enjoy:)

βThis would be far more reliable than Twitterβs current pay-for-a-checkmark system. Because the CBCβs Mastodon server would be connected to the larger fediverse, the CBC would both enjoy global reach and local autonomy. And no billionaire could ever take that away.β

Do they sit around and dream up ways to inflict their fascism on American lives?
As a limited-time bonus, the following romantic adventure films are now streaming on #AppleTVPlus in the US until May 31:
In case you were unaware, RT, aka Russia Today, is the propaganda arm of Putinβs authoritarian government. They appear to have an Instance on Mastodon. Iβve blocked them. You may want to share this information and block them too.

So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
