sometimes i wonder how many versions of myself i’ve outgrown without even noticing. i look back at old photos and remember the thoughts i used to carry, the dreams i thought would save me. it’s strange how you can live inside yourself every day and still not realize you’re evolving. it’s only when you look back that you realize how far you’ve come, how many lives you’ve already lived in the same skin.

I announced this morning I’m leaving Webtoons. This is something I’ve been thinking about for months now and today is the day. You can read a bit about my journey and my decision why in this post (In true Webtoons style with all the art and vertical-scroll glory.)

I’m happy that I’ve found a place to park my stuff for a while. Maybe Subs…

My gosh…we passed 2,000 subscribers overnight. Either you’re all extremely loyal, or you’ve fully lost it. Either way—I’m honored.

Thank you for showing up. Thank you for following me here. Thank you for reminding The Woman that a formerly stray cancer-killing machine with strong opinions and questionable table manners still has pull.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I have to get spiffed up for my checkup with Dr. Kenny—the only human I willingly allow to poke, prod, and praise me.

I’ll report back later…

When You're Bored, You're Being Shaped.

Boredom isn’t the absence of stimulation. It’s a test. Of what you reach for. Of what you default to.

Do you grab your phone? Or a pen? Do you scroll? Or sit with your thoughts? Do you numb? Or build?

Because what you do when you're bored becomes who you are when you're not.

Boredom is a doorway. To creativity. To clarity. To the things you keep avoiding.

Stop escaping it.

We live in a time that people are more inclined to obey an unlawful executive order than they are to follow a court order 🤦🏾‍♀️.

Dictators are created due to cruelty, cowardice, & compliance! IF THEIR ASSES will ignore the Supreme Court, we can definitely IGNORE HIM!

I miss our sweet little calico bundle of fur, she just showed up at our back door many years ago all hurt and looking for a new home. ❤️ it’s almost been 1 yr since she left us. 🐱🥺😢😢

We miss Lucy every day. ❤️❤️💔. Out of all the other houses on our street she picked our house. I turned the deck light on one night to check the raccoons weren’t trashing the bird feeders and there she was, all 7lbs of skinny cat with a bloody chin.

Turns out her jaw was broken and she had not eaten in weeks. 😓. Vet checked her out and cleaned her up but the high fat kitten food we gave her made her develop pancreatitis (probably cuz she had been starving for 3weeks?). Back to the vet. S…

Your Lucy had eleven years she would never have had without your loving kindness and skill at tending a lost and hurt kitten. Bless you for that and for providing your dear fur friend with a loving home. May you remember the good times and may Lucy live on in your heart. From one cat adoptee to another.
