Survival doesn’t always look dramatic.
Sometimes it looks like a dog who won’t leave your side, books you haven’t read yet, and the quiet choice to stay.

The little things that keep me here ⤵️

Little Things That Keep Us Going

Survival doesn’t always look dramatic. Sometimes it looks like a service dog curled around your legs, unread books waiting patiently, sour candy that burns just enough, and the quiet decision to st…

The Crippled Cryptid.

Winter changes everything. Bodies hurt differently. Routines soften.

This is what life with chronic illness + a medical alert service dog looks like when safety comes before performance. 🐾🖤

No inspiration porn. Just care.

Winter Routine, No Performance Required

Winter changes everything. Bodies hurt differently. Energy disappears faster. The rules shift. This is what survival, care, and a service dog’s routine look like when the world outside is hostile a…

The Crippled Cryptid.

There are doors you don’t open.
But that doesn’t mean you don’t see them.

On disability, medical aid in dying, Me Before You, and the thresholds we don’t talk about.

Some weeks don’t teach lessons.
They just test your ability to stay.

Paint fumes, seizures, side effects, Bed Jail™, thrift-store wins, and the quiet kind of survival.
This week’s health update is live.

The Crippled Cryptid.

Some weeks don’t listen when you tell them to stop.
This one gets told by my medical alert service dog. 🐾

Seizures, cold toebeans, medical gatekeeping, and leftover pork chops.

T.S. Eliot's Prufrock isn't just about modernist angst.

For many of us, it's a devastatingly accurate portrait of neurodivergent paralysis and the exhaustion of masking.

At least, since my late diagnosis and revisiting this poem, it is now my revised view.

In my new article for Sonnet Sleuths, I explore the poem through my own lens as a queer, disabled, and AuDHD educator.
