Loki (he / him / y'all) wants to write for you!

Greetings new folks! Whether you found me through #TTRPGs #NOLASky or #Cincy (or some other mysterious way), welcome! I tend to post in bursts, side effect of adult ADHD. I also block easily for racism, misogyny, TERFs and generally anyone expressing hate and division. You have been warned!

If you’re MAGA, do your best to enjoy the next two years. Because you will spend the remainder of your life looking back and realizing how you crushed your own reputation, and how you will never have power again. Two years seems like a long time, it isn’t when you look in the rear view mirror.
