Caitie. 30s. She/her/hers. Interests include classics, socialist theory, queer characters and a variety of fandoms (wot, merlin, tlt, danmei, yoi, one piece, dunmeshi, etc.), witchcraft, horror, science, cults, animanga, social dancing, figure skating, and niche fandom drama.
My politcal opinions range from: decentralization of power in social structures should be an essential human ethic and direct action agains't property to protect humans and ecosystems is always justified to yes it is praxis to vote strategically in US elections and it's cool when DSA endorsed candidates win.
Juggling hyperfixations. Prone to rants and rambles. If I follow you it’s probably because I thought your url was funny. Queue is untagged and only occasionally empty. Obies, irl friends, and mutuals encouraged to say hey. PSA: —idol inspo— is a tag for a dystopian novel concept I’m working on. Which is why there’s weird and horrible stuff with that tag on it. PSA PART 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i spam wheel of time stuff every wednesday if you don't want to see it blacklist the tags 'wot' and 'wot show'
I love listening to the sounds of summer: several tiny hummingbirds battling it out over the nectar feeder that they could all use simultaneously with no problem
You know what I know I'm usually pretty silent but I need you all to understand the horrible impact SpaceX and Starship has had on South Texas.
Yes, fuck those ugly ass cyber trucks but FUCK that Space Center.
Starship genuine danger to the people who live here. It's to the point many of the people here when they heard the explosion joked that it was probably another one of Elon's rockets.
This is a horrifying pattern we are becoming numb to, we hear about a planned test launch and brace ourselves for more debris.
Several of Musk's attempts at rockets, especially after the deregulation, have resulted in catastrophic explosions. Want the list? Here are a few!!
December 9th, 2020- Starship serial No. 8, or SN8. Exploded upon landing.
February 2, 2021- Starship SN9. Exploded upon landing.
March 3rd. 2021- Starship SN10. Landed in one piece. Fire at the skirt caused an explosion.
April 20, 2023- Starship. Exploded once more. Debris scattered in Port Isabell.
March 6, 2025- Flight 8. Spun out of control and exploded in a mass of fireballs. Planes had to be grounded due to the mass explosion and the debris are stills scattered in the ocean.
And now we have the most recent and the worse one yet.
June 18-19, 2025- Starship 36 during a GROUND test caused a mass explosion, the looming mushroom cloud causing locals in Cameron to believed they had been bombed.
The loser describes this it as a "rapid unscheduled disassembly" instead of what they are: fiery failures locals have to deal with as a result.
Pretty much everyone locally knows Elon Musk and his negative impact on our home, people who have had the unfortunate curse to have worked with him and the center call it Cultish, 8 members of his staff who spoke out against his behavior and sexual harassment were all fired.
Its a well known fact he hates the people here, and he goes out of his way to find employees who are not from this area and move them down here.
Musk has tried to encourage even more white people to come down to South Texas and live in his "Starship City". An attempt to gentrify and push out local citizens.
Rebekah Hinojosa, a local Activist with Another Gulf Is Possible, even had her home unlawfully entered by police after an alleged graffiti on a mural he commisioned (which didn't even obscure the mural).
This article is a good read on everything Musk has done to South Texas
One day last month, Juan Mancias, the chief of the Carrizo Comecrudo tribe of Texas, and two companions headed to Boca Chica village, a bays
I am TIRED of this going unnoticed and unheard of the People of The Valley. I need you to stop laughing and start taking this seriously.

In the US there are some national historical sites going to be shrunk down and used for gas/oil production. Look on the site: https://www.blm.gov/programs/energy-and-minerals/oil-and-gas/leasing

I did it with the Chaco Canyon, telling them to not shrink a historical site for greed. Please help! We need to protect these lands for future generations and for indigenous people!
Chaco Canyon is a 1,000-year-old archaeological complex whose importance I don’t even know how to express with enough intensity to convey what it means to pre-colonial American history. It’s a region of palatial Great Houses that were occupied by elite ruling families a thousand years ago who brought huge swaths of the surrounding area into their religious-political sphere of influence. And then it may have been ultimately rejected in the 1100s by the people living in it who found the whole Chaco power system to be overstepping and coercive. There’s a lot we have to learn from Chaco and its outlying sites about power and political organization, and a lot we still don’t wholly understand. And Trump wants to strip protections from hundreds of thousands of acres of archaeological sites, Native American cultural landscapes, and wildlife habitats to open them to oil and gas drilling.

So, Wheel of Time show fans and #savewot allies (including our friends from the #savequeerstories, #savewarriornun, & #savedeadboydetecttives movements), it's May 1.
Time to begin the year's big campaign, fueled by hope.
Here's the plan -
We advocate to get as many of our people in the WSFS (or, the ability to vote on both the 2026 and 2027 Hugo Awards' final ballot) as possible, which costs $50 - so there's a cost prohibitive element for some to this - using this link: www.lacon.org/register/
And we also continue to encourage our coworkers/friends/family/strangers to watch The Wheel of Time and sign the petition (we need 223 signatures until the petition hits 238k total signatures right now):
Join fans from around the world working to find a new home for The Wheel of Time. Help us show Sony and streamers the story deserves to cont
And we're still advocating for WoT show fans to register for the WSFS for $50 USD, so they can vote for the WoT show and others in the 2026 Hugos, which has historically been a show saver (looking at you, Babylon 5). You've got until Aug. 8 to submit your ballots!
Also, we're looking for some help to meet and exceed our goals. So today, I'm reaching out to the fans/cast/crew of Wynonna Earp, whose show was cancelled after Season 4 in 2021, but after a fan campaign, the fan-advocated Season 5 was replaced with a 90-minute film that premiered on Tubi in 2024 that tied loose plotlines and reunited beloved cast and crew sufficiently for fans to be satisfied, to see if they can help us with our petition. So, please watch the show on Prime or buy each season on YouTube or AppleTV (I really think you'll like it!) and come to your own conclusions about whether or not it deserved to be cancelled by the end of season 3, as well as signing the petition.
