What to say, what to say. I'm an introvert. This means I like being invited to go out but will find any reason to stay in so I can binge True Crime, read, listen to my audiobooks or podcasts, knit, write, or continue with whatever I'm learning (at the time). I'm a curator of all things online learning. If there is a class for it online, and I have an interest in it, I likely have it on my virtual to-take pile, akin to my to-read pile.

I'm a feminist, which means I am someone who believes in equity and equality, not a man-hater. Instead, I would like to see some antiquated notions about gender roles, housework, wages, invisible labor, and body autonomy evolve. I'm done with being made to feel like I'm not tall enough, short enough, thin enough, smart enough, or young enough. Expected to look effortless as I do it all while encumbered with all of the unrealistic bullshit double-edged expectations heaped on women in hopes of keeping us frazzled and exhausted.

I grew up in poverty and abuse. Some may think it odd to mention it here, but abusers rely on silence and I'm done with being quiet about it. We are not all raised the same. Some of us are born into baggage, chaos, and neglect. We didn't ask for it or deserve it.
