Ever since I deleted the Facebook app off my phone I’ve used it less and less. Haven’t missed it at all!
Reclaiming my sanity in this f**ked up crazy world.
Reclaiming my sexual desire (sadly gone now for far too long) probably went out with my sanity.
I am going to reclaim a decent amount of fitness. At least so I’m not too fatigued for sex because it sucks trying to have sex when one is too tired to care abut having sex.
count yr blessings as a private person, with a full and free life ahead of you, who doesn’t have to deal with deeply violent misogyny and white supremacy every single second of the day. and don’t take their repulsive language as yr own in order to abuse an actually queer, gender non-conforming person of color that you don’t even know. good luck “reclaiming identity” with that happening.
happy new year’s, autostraddle. hope you’re not still taking money from nazis who hate queers and women.
Reclaiming my optimism, go lightly on the political news. This more than most.
Reclaiming my joy in decorating and design. New house coming up.
Reclaiming my happiness in gardening. New garden too.

Def reclaiming my Frida hairdo scarves
Reclaiming neckwear because it’s been 12 years since he tried to strangle me to death and I won’t let him take any more of my life from me
Already on the path of dressing proudly like myself and not to be as invisible or aggro as possible so I’m going to just keep doing that.
