Having been there, it’s so strange to see her in that space and to recognize it even though it has changed so much. When she says “this must be an early version of the Smithsonian” I almost felt like I was time traveling back there with her.
Look, the price of tuition today is a crushing burden that shocks the conscience. Amid this backdrop, there's no way for families not to look at college — or choice of degree — in terms of return on investment. 🧵 1/9
I am D. Castleberry, I am a queer writer who is making queer fiction, some of which will be steamy and some of which will be wholesome. I am just getting started but I suspect that the world is my oyster.
With a lot of other social media sites in constant flux, I've decided to grow my audience here on Mastodon! I'll be posting about writing, my writing, and books in general. I will typically always follow back, so drop me a hey!

People with a Nintendo Switch, what's your preference for docked vs handheld? Do you almost always do one or the other, does it depend on the game, does it depend on what you're doing while gaming? And if you also have a PS5 or Xbox X|S, what's your preference for games that are available on both that and the Switch?

Thanks for reading and being your most precious and sensual self ❤️.

@jofagobe@bookstodon The Kitty storyline ended very unsatisfyingly for me; it seemed built for contrast to Anna’s, but didn’t really deliver on that, at least for me.
@MoiraEve and if I could piggyback, another great book of like intention is The Demon-Haunted World: Science as a Candle in the Dark, by Carl Sagan and co-authored by Ann Druyan
