kind of weird how parts of your soul are left in various locations without any warning… like yes i’m always at the top of that hill, sitting at the bus stop, in the cool light of the Japanese restaurant, standing at the pier etc etc

I'm a candle. The only other things like me in the house are the logs in the fireplace. They burn brighter than I do, but they never last as long. I tried talking to one of them once while it sat beside the hearth. It was a smaller piece of wood, more of a stick than a log. "You! Little one! Have you ever been on fire?" I called from my windowsill. "Never." The poor thing was clearly terrified. "It's warm. All your pain and sadness simply melt away." "Before they brought me here, I had a view through the window. Fire is gentle for you, but it will engulf me and reduce me to ash. It looks torturous." "But you burn so bright! What if instead of torture, you're headed for bliss?" "So it truly doesn't hurt you? You burn down, you're half the height you used to be, but there's no ash. You just disappear." "How could something so short-lived as you know anything of my past?" "Short-lived? I've been on the tree just outside the window for five years, and I've seen hundreds of candles sitting in your tray. Burning their lives away. Taking their time. I felt sorry for them." Rich of this stick to feel sorry for me, who would outlive it by days. Who had DAYS of happiness ahead of me. Who would be just fine for DAYS. I could only stare in disbelief. The paltry, deceitful stick spoke up again. "I'm relieved that burning is not agony for you. If we were the same in that, your life would be hell." The flame god entered the room and crouched down to the fireplace before I could reply. He snapped the stick in two, then into four. It screamed. He used its body to start the fire. It was gone in minutes.

So, it's Girl Scout Cookie Season! And Erin in the Morning has a list of trans scouts and links to their cookie sale sites:

If you don't want/can't eat the cookies, you can designate them for donation to "Operation Cookie Drop".

I was having a difficult time deciding which Scout to order from. I kept scrolling the list, and found one of the scouts is named Loki! So, that was an easy decision.

You can send the Scout a digital cheer message to encourage them after you place the order!

And yes, I'm sitting at my desk, crying.

It's just so wonderful to see a highly public organization supporting trans kids openly and joyfully.
