why are you microwaving carbonated drinks that feels wrong.

IDK, most people hate it, but I'm also the person that purposely lets coke go flat because I like it better flat so me and carbonated drinks have a weird relationship.

Do you like queer political fantasy?

Enemies to lovers lesbians? A weaving plot? Dramatic gays?

Allow me to introduce THE LOVER WITH FIVE NAMES, my second published novel! It will be released early 2024.

The blurb:

For centuries, the Ancients have had the sacred duty of choosing an emperor to rule the lands. After her family was massacred, the last remaining Ancient Herra employs someone to help her choose: the Nameless Lover, a man who can effortlessly slip into the hearts and beds of anyone he desires. For years, he has seduced the sovereigns of the lands to find the best fit for emperor. One candidate remains, a handsome young king who the Lover soon finds himself truly falling for. Herra’s plans go awry when another man seeks to become emperor by force, a charge headed by an unwilling general and his loyal captain Arthur. While the Lover wrestles with duty versus truth, Herra finds an unlikely ally in the woman who massacred her family, and Arthur discovers his destiny. The truth of the late emperor’s murder begins to unravel, exposing a web of treachery across the lands. A tale emerges of estranged family, unlikely romance, and a lost ring lying in wait that will change the course of the continent forever.

I'm excited to announce more information as the time approaches. For now, I just want to drum up excitement about this book!

One of the weirdest things about being in America is how high schools have military recruiters visit them and try and convince the teenagers within to sell their bodies to their country. It's so weird to me to see these military guys convince teenagers to join the military industrial complex.

I actually really like the thing when you're starting to get the hang of a new language, enough to understand and say simple sentences but you gotta get creative to get more complex thoughts across, like a puzzle. I remember a time in the restortation school when a classmate who wasn't natively finnish and did her best anyway dropped something and sighed, telling me "every day is monday this week. I have had four mondays this week." And I understood.

I don't think I speak much of spanish anymore, but in the nursing school training period I did there, I did manage to get by with making weird Tarzan sentences. I got a nosebleed at some point and startled another nurse. Not knowing the words "humidity" or "stress", I managed to string together: "This is ok. It is hot, it is cold, I have a bad day, I am sad, I have blood. This is normal for me." And she understood.

And sometimes you just say things weird, but it's better than not saying it. One time, I was stuck in a narrow hallway behind someone walking really slowly with a walker, and he apologised for being in the way. I was not in any hurry, but didn't know the spanish word for "hurry", but I did know enough words to try to circumvent it by borrowing the english "I have all the time in the world."

The man burst into one of those cackling old man laughters that they do when something in this world still manages to surprise them. He had to be somewhere between 70 and a 100 years old, and I guess if there was one thing he wasn't expecting to hear today, it would be a random blond vaguely baltic-looking fuck casually announce that he is the sole owner and keeper of the very concept of time.

Firstly, angels don't dance. It's one of the distinguishing characteristics that marks an angel. So, none. At least, nearly none […] So providing the dance was a gavotte, the answer is a straightforward "one". Then again, you might just as well ask how many demons can dance on the head of a pin. They're of the same original stock, after all. And at least demons dance. Not what you'd call good dancing, though.
