Fandoms (in no particular order)

DC Comics (More specifically the original Teen Titans cartoon and the Batfam)

Stardew Valley

Marvel Comics (Sorta, I still like the X-Men and some of the other characters but don’t really keep up with it anymore.)

Interests (in no particular order)

Cooking: I went to college at Johnson & Wales University to study Culinary Arts. I worked in the industry until an injury made working full-time in a kitchen impossible for me. It is still a passion, however, and sometimes I post about my meals.

Gardening: Semi-related to the interest above, I love to garden! At the moment I live in an apartment, so much of my gardening is house plants in containers. I do have some interesting plants out on my balcony, however!

Reading/Writing: I was diagnosed as dyslexic when I was very young and told I would never read at my grade level. They were right- I was reading well above my grade level once my mom and school adjusted for my disability and I continue to read to this day. My goal is to read 100 books every year. I also write, mostly fan-fiction work for the original animated Teen Titans.

#About Me

Saw The Odyssey today and uh- It was the concept of the Odyssey.

What to do if you find a baby bunny.

If you have baby bunnies in your yard where you let your dogs loose, you can put a laundry basket over the nest while your dogs are outside! Mama normally feeds her kids at dawn and dusk, so you won't be preventing her from accessing her babies. Don't move a nest!! mama is stupid!

There’s a liquor store near my house that seems to be run exclusively by frat boys. They lovingly curate these bags, which I browsed today while “Oops I Did It Again” played through the store speakers. This is art to me, there is beauty everywhere for those with eyes to see it

The update everyone has been waiting for….

THE ANOKA COUNTY FAIR: JULY 21st - 26th, 2026 The Fall Festival: Oct 2nd - 4th, 2026 Instagram: @AnokaCoFair 📍3200 St Francis Blvd. Anoka MN 55303

Saw this post on FB for the Anoka County Fair and I feel folks here could appreciate the ad. For... several reasons.

I'm not in Minnesota, but I kind of wish I was so I could go to this. If you're in the area, maybe go check it out!

There’s a dude at the bus stop who is having a fight with someone over the phone, and I wish so hard I could hear both sides of the fight, because he just yelled

YOU need to adjust your PUNK ASS chakra!

I don’t know what this means either objectively or in his personal lived experience but he has some strong feelings about some punk ass chakras.

Found this one in the archives, felt like it needed a renaissance. So many people need to adjust their punk ass chakras.

My favourite Adrian headcanon is that they're a biologist/zoologist who has seen so much shit, they're completely unphased by any and every alien habit of Grace's.

I mean full-on khaki-shorts-wearing, traversing-wilderness-with-nothin'-but-a-machete Adrian who yoinks snakes outta trees and pets swamp puppies and will unflinchingly dig around in elephant faeces for signs of a rare parasitic tapeworm if needed.

Oh, humans eat socially? No problem, Adrian has observed many many animals eat. Did you know that an obscure species of small underground dirt creature from the north side of Erid also eats socially? Adrian can give you a not-so-short presentation on them.

Oh, the human has no external carapace and so its internal sounds are absurdly loud, wet and off-putting? No problem, Adrian was just conducting an expedition last month researching the incredible eridian animal, the Wet Loud Worm from the south-east region of Wet Loud Wormland. They're desensitised, it's fine.

Oh, Grace leaks often from many orifices and it can be a bit of a learning curve to get used to? No problem for Adrian, see Wet Loud Worm paragraph again!

Meanwhile, Rocky is bewildered as to how he's managed to third-wheel both of his relationships, because both Adrian and Grace are nerds who nerd out about things, and Adrian is shaking in their carapace with enthusiasm to learn more about human culture and biology, not to mention everything about earth animals. And yeah, sure, Grace might be a molecular biologist, but he'll be damned if he'll pass up an opportunity to learn about alien fauna from a fellow scientist, and yes, Adrian, he'd love to hear about the small underground dirt creature from the north side of Erid, and he's so excited to learn more about the Wet Loud Worm, do go on.

i like "social ergonomics" bc like yeah. furniture is usually made in a way that's like "we think this is probably what is needed for a human to immediately perform any given task" and often we are wrong about what types of furniture or spaces will have a detrimental long term impact on our bodies. ergonomics ideally looks at the evidence of the impact on bodies and then works backwards from there to come up with design.

social ergonomics should mean looking at social structures and analyzing the outcomes they have re: human welfare, and then taking that information back to the design board and redesigning things to hurt people less.

this should also be a zine. someday. but that would require me being able to sit upright

witnotwitchcraft

this ^ is the field of social work

creekfiend

well. yes and no

witnotwitchcraft

the field of economics initially involved talking about how good an idea slavery was. the good news is that we as a civilization are by and large working towards out improvement and humanization.

social workers are the reason homeless shelters stay open. the reason needle exchanges happen. the reason harm reduction is even a field. macro social work quite literally involves studying human behavior, seeing where harm is being caused, testing what improvements can be made, and then lobbying to get those improvements made.

if you, personally, see harm being caused by the system, do what thousands of other social workers have done. and try to change it.

creekfiend

omg should I change the system from inside? no one has ever told me that before you're so smart

love that when I say "yes and no" and also indicate that social work NOW, as we speak, is often used as a tool of coercive institutional control, not as an argument that it should not exist but merely to say "well, sorta, but not really" you just assume I want to (checks notes) "burn it all down"

have you tried assuming that other people are capable of having nuanced understandings of things even when they do not agree with you? i recommend it!

screambirdscreaming

"if you, personally, see harm being caused by the system, do what thousands of other social workers have done. and try to change it." The really interesting thing about this sentence is that is assumes the person you're speaking to is seeing harm caused by social work from the perspective of a fellow social worker

In what other contexts do you think someone might encounter harm perpetuated by social workers?

What immediate forms of protest or change do you think are or aren't available to a person in that position?

Also, REAL fucking bold of you to claim that social work is responsible for the invention of harm reduction and needle exchanges. Harm reduction, a philosophy which EXPLICITLY was developed by people doing peer-to-peer support to provide care for people who were barred from accessing mainstream support because of their drug use!

Yeah, a lot of people in harm reduction NOW are there through social work, including a lot of people whose social work training leads them to a condescending and paternalistic perspective that alienates people doing peer-to-peer work inside these same organizations. Because social work has realized that harm reduction WORKS, but that doesn't mean they're actually ready to stop being fucking weird about drug users!

There's plenty of potential in social work as a field and it COULD be more engaged with stuff like "making society less experientially hostile." But in practice, at the actual point of service where a social worker is working with a specific human person, the pressures around that interaction FREQUENTLY mean that the person "receiving services" is actually the one being maneuvered into compliance with social systems, not the reverse. If you want social work to have the potential to do anything better than that, you NEED to acknowledge that that is happening - frequently, systemically, due to deep flaws and ongoing systemic pressures - in a way that doesn't brush it off as something you can just aspirationalize your way out of.

i really did love the "we invented harm reduction" because it is so fucking classic academia: 1. have non-academic advocates from a marginalized group invent a model of approaching a social issue that goes against what is considered ""best practices"" by institutions, 2. these advocates work tirelessly with NO institutional support and NO resources other than what they can scrape up with outreach and mutual aid, and their efforts are largely ridiculed or ignored by the institutions in question 3. at some point, the evidence of the efficacy of the advocates' method seeps through the thick fucking ivory walls and then IMMEDIATELY academics are like "! we invented this :) you're welcome :) I am going to use the fact that this is now something broadly accepted in this field as a way to deny the very process by which it came to exist (because acknowledging that would be admitting the failures of our system)"

I think its very VERY telling that the tags said "#if we just refuse to engage in systems with any racist roots #we will be sitting in a mud pit with the ashes of civilization around us" because oh, yeah? You think that without everything built by white supremacist institutions, there would be no civilization? and nothing of value? just "a mud pit"?

yeah. you would say that, wouldn't you. because it's fucking racist! and your field! is ! racist !

There are so many things echolocation would see that can't be seen with eyes, and also so many things eyes would see that can't be seen with echolocation. How often do Rocky and Grace each find the other apparently staring at nothing like a cat seeing ghosts???

Ok like. Imagine life without ads. You wake up, check your messages across a variety of apps, no ads. You get up and put on the tv while you prep your breakfast, no ads. Maybe you drive somewhere and switch on the radio, no ads. Maybe you drive a long distance, yet somehow, not a single billboard on your path. You pick up a newspaper or magazine to pass the time, no advertisements only articles. You turn on your game console, the home screen is just about your games, no ads to buy more. You open a streaming app, you don't pay extra for no ads, there's just no ads ever.

Think about how much of your time is spent looking at ads. "Download ublock" yeah I know, I have. But that doesn't change that the world is covered with endless advertising. Imagine never seeing that again. How much better our lives would be.

sorry to everyone out there who thinks they have the funniest tshirt but i think i can confidently say i just saw the actual funniest tshirt just now. i passed by a beautiful black woman with long multicolor braids blowing majestically in the beach breeze & she was wearing an oversized tshirt that said in gigantic letters "WHITE BOY OF THE YEAR"
