Walked to Indigo Bridge today and bought a whole pile of queer books.
Love Lives Here by Amanda Jette Knox has been on my list for a while; it's a memoir of a person (now using they/them pronouns but not at time of writing) whose kid came out as nonbinary and spouse came out as trans within a couple years of each other.
Hijab Butch Blues by Lamya H was recommended in a slack I'm in; it's a coming of age memoir by a queer hijabi Muslim that looks at Islam through a queer lens.
Forced to end my semi-annual deep dive on my city's subreddit (which I don't subscribe to on my main account for anonymity) when the infinite scroll stopped scrolling. I was about 5 months back.
The thrill when I found a post 5 months ago titled "Looking for Prairie/Overgrown Properties in Lincoln" to find out if one of my neighbors had called out my place? Can't be beat. (They did not) #LNK
First message in a new group chat I'm in:
"We're all gathered here today prepare for death* as the primary managers of our respective families finances!"
Let's go, nerds!!
(*Who are not actively dying, just getting more prepared for situations that may arise)
Published a list of my book recommendations on pregnancy/birth/parenting (so far). It is here: https://www.cassey.dev/posts/2023-01-26-pregnancy-parenting-books/ #books #parenting #pregnancy
