I made this blog over a month ago and fittingly haven’t had the spoons to make an introduction post until now. I want it to be perfect, but I’m going to settle for done because that’s life.

This blog is a place for me to document all the beautiful, complicated, and interconnected ways that crip love, trans love, neurodivergent love and queer love show up in my life. It’s intended to be a monument to those I love and a celebration of all the incredible ways I’m lucky enough to be loved by them in return.

It’s mostly for my own edification, but if you have any stories of love you would like to share, I would be delighted to hear them

Everytime I come across this it is a reblog, share, and to disseminate as much as possible. You are worthy. You are loved.
