Good morning all! I’ve been up since 6:15am, and I’ve got a thing I’ve been meaning to share since National Coming Out Day, so I’m gonna do it now while I’m not awake enough to care about this being “perfect.” So we all know I’m bisexual, right, and how I thought I was straight until I was 21 doing a production of Three Musketeers? Well, over the past year, I’ve come to realize that I’m also not as cis as I thought I was all my life! I’m genderfae! And my pronouns are fae/faer! What does that mean for me? It means that I fluctuate between many genders, but all of those genders are at least vaguely feminine. (Fun fact: woman is one of them! But it’s not the only one, it’s very tied to my race, and I feel so much more myself when I call myself genderfae) It also means that I do not want to be referred to as a girl or a lady, though other gendered terms such as daughter, sister, aunt are fine. Woman is sometimes ok, but I really only like it when my Blackness is also being talked about, and when other Black femmes are doing the talking. I’ve attached a picture of the genderfae flag and a pronoun worksheet for anyone that wants to practice, because I know I had to practice my own dang pronouns, so I want to help other people do the same thing! To recap! Gender identity: genderfae Pronouns: fae/faer Good descriptors: person, daughter, sister, aunt, niece, girlfriend, fae Personally painful descriptors: girl, woman, lady Love you all 💚💛🤍💕💜 #genderfae #nationalcomingoutday #latepost #rightontimepost https://www.instagram.com/p/CVqNTFyFoPx/?utm_medium=tumblr

My dear Neil Gaiman, now that the writers' strike has finally come to an end, do we have any confirmation on the third season of Good Omens? Please, Neil... even if there is no continuation of the series, we need the end of the story. We count on you! And FOR GOD'S SAKE, I need a happy ending for Aziraphale and Crowley! Preferably, with Azi doing the "I'm sorry dance" for Crowley and finally returning that kiss from the second season :) <3
When Season 3 is officially commissioned everyone will know.
It hasn't been yet.
Currently the sets are still standing in Bathgate, and I'm beginning to write more episodes.
A relaxing last Sunday before I head out of this lovely state #backroadvines #postgishwes #doihavetogobacktoschool (at BackRoad Vines)
Happy Halloween from Cassiopeia! Getting to spend the night with some of my greatest friends was such a delight, and I’m going hone with a happy happy heart 🥰🥰🥰 Photo credit for the full body shots of me goes to @johnosbornmusic, who, along with being an EXCELLENT musician, is really fricken good at photography, hire him for all the good things (at 230 Fifth: Best Heated Rooftop Bar/Club/Restaurant In NYC) https://www.instagram.com/p/CVuZjF6rEzy/?utm_medium=tumblr
WHO THEY ARE:
“Rainbow Railroad receives hundreds of requests for help every year from countries where LGBT individuals are open targets of violence. Because the volume of requests is so high, we focus our efforts on assisting LGBT people who have faced physical violence or face an imminent threat of violence, imprisonment, or death. We have been successful in helping individuals from the Caribbean, Africa and Middle East where we have local networks to support and validate cases.”
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO HELP?
“The costs range as every case is unique. Sometimes the individual has the resources to help themselves and they just need information and support from us to make a move. In these cases, the cost to Rainbow Railroad is staff and volunteer time to research and provide information. In cases where they need financial support to get to safety, it costs about $5000 to cover flights and other related costs.”

To my tiny beanie baby self, who smiles at cats and loses a tooth by biting cotton candy. You don’t understand why things have happened the way they do, and neither do I, but maybe the words of this trusted adult will help ❣️
Mr. Gaiman, I know you mostly get asks about Good Omens these days, but I am a long-time fan. Of your work Coraline. I am a survivor of severe parental neglect and abuse, and I must have read the book hundreds of times in my childhood and I found great comfort in the movie, despite my now complicated feelings about Time Burton as a person. I guess I just wanted to thank you for creating a piece of art that made me feel less alone in my very isolated adolescence.
Do you have any advice for healing after such a traumatic start to life?
I'm glad Coraline has helped. (Tim Burton didn't have anything at all to do with the Coraline movie though.)
When I was young I believed that the way you healed was just to move on. Now I'm 63 and you realize that stuff never heals on its own. It's still there, waiting to jump out at you. But there are things that help: other people help, especially other people it's safe to talk to. Building a life can help. And making art out of trauma. That's good too.
I wished Coraline had been around when I was a child, and that was why I wrote it as an adult.
Silly birds
This song never made any sense to me.
Me all last weekend (and anytime I remember the ending)
...and with them, your ineffably beautiful fanart of Aziraphale and Crowley. It's also worth pointing out that most of this art was posted in the last day or so. The show has been out for a mere weekend. Please never change, Tumblr <3
(This post goes out to everyone who has seen the second season. SPOILERS AHEAD. MILD BUT STILL SPOILERY. PLEASE BE WARNED.)

Couldn’t resist a morning stroll in the first snow of the season ❄️ I may have a new tradition! #soloadventure #ileftmyapartment #robinlearnsaboutwinter (at George Washington Bridge)
It’s been quite literally a decade since I’ve had this simple Brazilian treat, and I have changed a LOT since I was that awkward, definitely-had-anxiety-and-other-fun-mental-things-that-were-untreated 18 year old that couldn’t stop stealing spoonfuls from the pot. My trip to Brazil had things happen that I’m still healing from, things that have made it too hard to go back to a place I adored. But I made beigadeiro last night, and it made me happy, and that’s a step in the right direction #brigadeiro #mentalhealth #healingjourney #metoo #songbirdbakingadventures https://www.instagram.com/p/CHIozHlDXsX/?igshid=d59imcrpmvjk
