Bird-watching! That's so cool! There's an island off the coast of my town that's a popular bird-watching area and it always seems like a really fun thing to do.
Fandom, fandom, fandom... you know, I've been involved in fandom for a long time and I don't think I'll ever leave, but I struggle so much with finding spaces that fit me. Social media in general is so toxic. And I'm interested queer women but I find the way fandom does femslash often is so unpalatable to me. I'd never want to ruin someone else's joy, but I like the way you phrased it, about finding canon and fandom spaces/fic that nourish you. It can be hard!
I am officially giving myself permission to be weird and experimental! Here's to writing the weird kinks and hyperspecific fetishes! Here's to writing second person POV! Here's to forced metaphors and alien analogies and leaning into my weird synesthesia tendencies!
