This is the only year I care about the Oscars. So much vindication for the weirdos, the closeted queer folks, the multi-generational families with language barriers. #EverythingEverywhereAllAtOnce

Short version of #Crowdfunding post. Please #boost!

I need #help escaping an #abusive environment. Government services aren’t sufficient and neither is my meagre income. I‘m #Disabled by #ChronicIllness which makes it even harder. I can’t do it alone.
Any help appreciated.

In addition to the insanity of sitting in pain for hours getting a #tattoo, I forgot about the annoying several days afterward spent with itchy, flaking skin that constantly needs special care. It seems like I really hate tattoos, but I don't... I think?
Anyway, here she is:
I acknowledge that I do have some privilege as a cis, femme woman - there might not really be a reason for folks to assume I am queer. However, I am also Asian and there's no way to hide that. I was also conscious of the fact that the head of the FBI recently confirmed that COVID might have come from a lab in China and just worried about how much that would become "big" news. Maybe I am just a very paranoid person in general.
In the back of my mind though, I was almost always thinking about how I would be perceived and treated when I was outside of the convention as a queer WoC traveling alone. I know not all folks in The South are the same but I was conscious of the fact that the state had JUST banned #dragshows and is aiming to restrict support for #trans youth.
I spent the weekend at #LiteraryInk (my first #tattoo convention!) in Chattanooga, TN. Overall, it was great - the convention was created by a queer woman and filled with queer nerds who are into many fandoms and tattoos.

#NonBinary trans persons deserve to be acknowledged and recognised. The UK government's refusal to do this is incredibly transphobic. What non-binary people are asking for isn't really asking for much. It doesn't infringe on the rights of others at all.
So to the #Trans and non-binary community in the UK, keep fighting for your rights everyone; because you deserve them.

Mention of arachnids
Currently doing research on getting a #JumpingSpider as a pet. They seem really cute and apparently are pretty easy to care for. I really mostly want to play with one.
I used to have a couple of death feigning beetles, those were pretty cute too.
I dunno why I love bugs as pets but apparently it’s my thing.
