Oh you are in for a ride when you get to the rest of the series!
Grateful to have friends who feel like sisters ๐โจ
Haha itโs a long story
So uhโฆ I got sent something really *interesting* this week.
I donโt terribly want to get involved - and I recognize that even vagueposting about it is some level of involvement - but hooboy all I will say is that jealousy is an ugly look no matter who you think you are.
Right?! I terrify myself when I do it

Today's deep thought: do they call it "falling asleep" because of the hypnic jerk?
The event poster for "The Queer Monsters and Fabulous Frights of LGBTQ+ Horror" with a background of red blood dripping behind black text. Below are headshots of three individuals (Emily Schooley, Christian Baines, J.P. Jackson) and details of the event: Friday, April 24, 2026, at 3:30 PM, Room 211, Stage 4. Part of Calgary FanExpo 2026.
I'm excited to share that I will be a fan panel guest for this year's Calgary Expo!!
On Friday April 24th, I'll be talking all things LGBTQ+ horror with fabulous genre authors Christian Baines and J.P. Jackson, and moderator Krista Hansen.
Stay tuned for updates! Come say hi if you're attending!!
A CBC investigation has found big grocers are overcharging for meat - AGAIN. Sign the petition now to call on the CFIA to crack down on these scammy pricing practices: leadnow.ca/campaigns/cf...
I think one of the reasons that the Artemis II mission is such a collective joy is that it is a singular experience in the name of knowledge and science, with friendship, happening in real time and accessible near-globally.
How many other experiences have we had like this?
ARTEMIS II: SPLASHDOWN! Welcome home, astronauts!

She's hot!
Some Friday food for thought:
Violence is not just physical harm - like assaulting someone or burning down a warehouse.
Violence is also psychological harm - like when predators intentionally smear the reputation of survivors, or when wealthy CEOs refuse to pay living wages to employees.
The key change is what keeps it spunky!
Todayโs earworm is Jellicle Songs For Jellicle Cats.
This has been on a loop in my brain for *hours*
Dunno who needs to hear this right now, but it's never too late to start saying "no" to grossly insane, entitled narcissists.
The more pressure we put on them and the more we stand up to them the more their world will implode and crumble - as it's meant to.
A photo of two plushies - Artemis and Luna - from the live action Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon. Artemis is a white cat with green eyes, still in his original toy packaging. Luna is a purple cat with blue eyes. This photo exists mostly for meme reasons, because of NASAโs current Artemis II mission.
My entire nerd life has been building up to this moment: 1000% accurate historical re-enactment of the Artemis II mission, using Sailor Moon plushies.
Canโt wait to find out whether or not the moonโs haunted
NASA just dropped this image of Artemis II astronaut Christina Koch looking back at us. The first woman to ever see our planet in its entirety. Iโm not crying youโre crying ๐ฅน๐ญ๐งช ๐ธ: NASA
โWhy didnโt she go to the police?โ
Because they donโt believe her.
โWhy doesnโt she name names?โ
Because no one believes her.
โWhy didnโt she try harder to get away?โ
Because sheโs most likely to be killed while trying to escape.
Believe women.
Thatโs how you enact change
Oh I love both of those ๐๐
Best CGI Iโve seen in ages ๐น
Go Artemis II go!
Iโve said it before and Iโll say it again - Carney is the Monorail Guy (to PeePeeโs Millhouse)
I am really hoping that their flight is completely safe and uneventful
NASA choosing today to launch is peak comedic timing.
Apr 1 AND a full moon? Oi.
