Sometimes I get annoyed and frustrated with my stupid job but then I remember, if it weren’t for it, I wouldn’t have been able to pay for the dental emergency. It’s not so bad after all, I’m just lazy and enjoy complaining a little too much.

#small wonders #thankful for the little things I guess #I need to be more appreciative #but let’s be real #I only took it because they paid for everything #kinda like a scholarship #if they didn’t pay #I’ll never take it up #lol

A wild flash reprint appears!

It's 'Modern Cassandra', originally published in F&SF a couple of years ago, now free to read in Small Wonders:

Modern Cassandra tries so hard to warn us, but all her visions go to Junk. I have an important revelation! she writes. I saw you in my dreams. This is urgent. Please reply, but even though she flags her emails as top priority we never do.

With thanks to Medium Amanda, who made a really dedicated effort to connect with me towards the end of 2019! And yet I never replied to her. What would have happened if I had?

My 80 year old Mamaw goes for daily nature walks and sends me pictures of interesting things she finds.

Here's the collection so far:

This curious snail

These yellow ground clouds

A pair of unusually clean and undamaged tortoise shells

She built a pine cone village bc she's adorable

Our favorite so far, polyphemus, a lunar silk moth

Just saw a squirrel run across the sidewalk and climb a tree. Had a little acorn in its mouth 🥺

My take on the whole 'the JL gets mad at Batman for having a child soldier when he gets robin' thing goes like this:

The League is having a fight with Batman saying it's wrong to bring a child, especially with no powers, into fights with supervillains and it's irresponsible to put children in danger

And Batman interrupts with "so you take him then"

And the League just kind pause, like "huh?"

"One of you can babysit Robin for a week and then we can revisit this discussion."

They're a little confused but eventually Wonder Woman agrees to take him in.

She returns with him a week later. "I apologize Batman, we have misjudged you. I adore him but please take him back now."

(she couldn't get him to stop sneaking out to fight crime without physically restraining him)

#batman is the only thing keeping robin on a leash #just imagining any of the jl trying to contain little 11 year old dick #who is a ball of energy and righteous fury contained in such a small smiley body #batman #robin #dick grayson #wonder woman #justice league #dc #dc comics #mine

Watching the slight bend of the tip of a paintbrush while painting and thinking,

'Yeah, this could be religious'

I love quiet mornings, parallel play, having a cup of coffee while reading, taking naps, open windows, cats, taking care of others emotionally, being dependable, being on my own, listening, walking with headphones on, buying second hand books and finding notes tucked between the pages from previous owners. I love love the little things in life the small wonders. I think they make up the big picture of life like a million puzzle pieces and if i have many many small really good moments every day for the rest of my life I think it will shape up to be something wonderful regardless of milestones or whatever success is.

Once you stop thinking about queer people's labels as strict indications of what's in their pants and who they do/don't bed and instead view queer people's labels as how they interact with the world, you'll find that you'll get along with queer people better and treat them better, I think.

#queer #lgbt #lgbtq #like of course some people use labels in the way i described first and i don't think that's inherently bad... #...but like. as a trans person i hate when people try to like... use my labels (or their labels they force on me) to say what's in my pants #i think there's a fone line between somebody using a label in the first way i described and somebody forcing their understanding of other... #...people onto them. like. #i think it can be a small shift in thought but it's helpful #it reminds me of the shirt that went around of the boston dyke march (<3) shirt design... #...which basically listed who was welcomed at the march and it was a super long list #if anybody is wondering what i'm talking about wrt the last two tags i have the image on hand
