LionessElise sends you Wednesday gardening greetings.

Still got some interesting things in Round 1 of the perfumes sale, especially if you like Black Phoenix Alchemy Lab, Nocturne Alchemy, Cobalt Blends, Haus of Gloi, and so forth. Round 2 will start within the week, and the minimum will drop some. elisem.dreamwidth.org/1999140.html

Surely someone needs this perfectly ridiculous thing: www.ebay.com/itm/18652941...

There is a very, very simple and easy way to show up for your community and do good works that benefit everyone. Put your mask back on.

i want to add: if you’ve stopped masking for whatever reason, you can start again. it makes spaces more accessible, it helps preserve your health and the health of the people around you. it’s a tiny action you can take to make the world safer.

All the perfumes are up in the sale, from BPAL to NA to Haus of Gloi to the last of the CB:IHP. Check it out here: elisem.dreamwidth.org/1999140.html

The world sucks and things are bad but hey, you know what you can do right now to make things easier on yourself and others? Wear a face mask. We have to be alive to fight back.

Solidarity is the only way forward. Start by putting on a fucking mask. Prove the community can trust you. You want to strike & protest? Start giving/asking for mutual aid. Get in community. Get in the rescue boat or drive. All we have All we have EVER had is each other.

Mask bans are eugenics and ableism coded in law and I would have loved to see people who think they will be able bodied forever (spoiler, you most likely won’t) care about this too.

WHEW. OK, I finally got all the perfumes listed. It's a lot. Also, I added one ridiculously big-purchase freebie for someone who's been trying to track down Bandit by Robert Piguet. Sealed, new in box. It's a quest object for some. Maybe for you? Go see: elisem.dreamwidth.org/1999140.html

LionessElise sends you Thursday greetings.

Got inspired tonight and made a mocktail, which someone should figure out the right liquor for and turn into a cocktail. Some orange juice, a bit of prickly pear syrup, some cherry cacao bitters, some fizzy water. If there's a booze that's like sun-warmed weathered wood, nicely dry, might that work?

why is “independence” the goal for disabled people instead of community?

The Annoying AF Scents Sale has progressed into Round 1, Phases 1 & 2, which means I have added altogether too many Nocturne Alchemy treasures. Progress, yay. elisem.dreamwidth.org/1999140.html

LionessElise sends Sunday greetings.

Since I haven't gone to bed yet it is still Saturday to me, so LionessElise sends you late night Saturday greetings.

Just added a Sephiroth set to my BPAL sale post, all ten original Lab imps. Also a couple of bottles of Miskatonic-related goodness. And I have a gazillion other things to add, too. LionessElise's Annoying AF Sale here: elisem.dreamwidth.org/1999140.html

That's one way to disarm the police

The Supreme Court upholds a federal ban on gun possession for anyone subject to a domestic violence restraining order.

You know what? It is okay to not understand someone else’s gender or sexuality! Sometimes it is hard to understand But that doesn’t mean you dismiss it. I highly recommend telling yourself “i don’t get it, so I’m not gonna talk about it” or only asking questions of trusted friends.

I have sorted through the part of the BPAL stash that is in the box labeled "these want new homes" and have therefore posted the first phase of Round 1 of Elise's Annoying AF Perfume Sale. Come and participate if that's what floats your boat. elisem.dreamwidth.org/1999140.html

LionessElise (who just woke up because apparently All the Sleep was needed) sends you Friday greetings.

My novel is not part of an "asexual trend." If asexuality appears more frequently in recent books, it's a market correction as forces of erasure lose a little of their hegemony, and people who needed these stories finally get them. Our existence isn't a trend.

Fun Fact: Today is the Strawberry Moon, the name for June’s full moon because it’s when strawberries are the ripest. In fact, the name for this month in Anishinaabemowin is Ode’iminigiizis, or Strawberry Moon. Bonus fun fact: Ode’ means heart, so we call these heart berries.

Stormé got lost in the discourse at some point, possibly due to being a drag king, possibly because she was butch, but deserves to be remembered as a Stonewall icon, too. 🌈
