The Wicker Amber
@elementalamber
I am standing in an open field west of a white house. Horror gal, gamer, leftist, cis+bi/pan, she/her, disabled, forever dealing with brain injury fallout. I love cooking. Protect trans kids+trans adults. Protect trans care.
This site has eaten my lovely posts twice so here it is condensed: Waiting for 🌱 to kick in, dry shampoo'd and groomed Beskar (even brushed his teeth) and used eyeliner for mood-boosting lipstick. Purple and mauve.
I'm home, my face is washed and I have pasta ready to devour. Kittenbinder is asleep between my legs and I'm going to watch some Smosh while I eat. I took this pic of my IV because anytime I get one right next to my tattoo for MamaNeeda/Demeta I think she'd laugh.
Filter didn't charge for the first time ever. woof. I knew the morning was going too well. Anyway, waiting room selfie.
Kittenbinder has this wheezy, purr-adjacent sound he makes me he's happy but doesn't want me to KNOW. For instance, it's naptime so I moved him from my lap to my side for spooning. He wheezed and wheezed to show his displeasure but
What's the most joyous celebration in film? This is in Lovecraft Country which wasn't a film but I believe it counts. I couldn't find a gif but when Montrose visits the gay bar in ep 5. Absolute joy, both Black and queer.
Cutting alllll my fucking hair off today! And feeling fuck it about my bruises: match em to the makeup.
I'm not emotionally up for social media so I'm not here. I can't do the news. I'm really struggling to be even a little mentally healthy. But I just started Palia on the xbox. This is Tarragon.
My little sister @onesingleheck.bsky.social made me a bday cake that says "SLUT." Such an aspirational concept for me. But I want to be.
This is the only pic I have of my bday twin, MamaNeeda/Demeta. She was a huge horror nerd - I loved talking with her about movies, disability, health, divorces and games and her kids. She was remarkable and she'd still be here but medical racism killed her. I wish you got to know her.
Our best buddy Alex HastedAction has been here since Thursday (a whole day longer than usual ☺️) and they leave today. It's been great and we showed them our lake and our favorite donut place today. And we saw this heron today, about 10 feet away. I threw a filter on these to make le bird stand out.
CW: Snake Went to scope out the area where we're camping for my birthday and found a guy.
Pre-dentist selfie and a shot of me walking my fantastic dog.
Share a horror movie that isn't talked about enough (a personal fave)
The face of a gal who cleaned the whole kitchen, washed the produce and who delivered (with @onesingleheck.bsky.social) birthday flowers and a card to her neighbor… a month before his birthday. Ope.
Went to a rummage sale yesterday and found a lot of awesome stuff but I’m really pleased with this! Only a quarter!
There is an incredible choker in the latest episode of Margo’s Got Money Troubles that is huge silver stars. It is gorgeous and loud and I desperately want something similar. I love it so so much! It’s by Collina Strada.
I’m feeling quite a mess but Beskar has settled in between my cris-cross applesauce legs and he is so cute I could cry. My legs are about to snap off Barbie-style though.
Managed to vacuum my bedroom (long overdue) and also found a Fallout 3 lunchbox I‘d forgotten about. B pointed out I was taking these pictures while wearing an og Dragon Age: Origins t-shirt and look: there’s a reason young gamers can’t tell me NOTHING. I’ve been here awhile.
#hospitalglam Beyond tired but I am here to be infused and ablated.
