Andi 🐭 the Advocate 💌

I'm a survivor. I want to feel safe and no longer silenced. This feels like that. I hope this will be a place where I can talk openly & safely, to advocate for & engage with the communities I'm part of. I'm proud of my identity & my progress, and I look forward to more growth.

Rewatching all of Stranger Things again and Ted Wheeler just said, “They’re our government; they’re on our side.” When I say I laughed out loud… and then cried a little.

Always, bestie. Today we have a fruity black tea named after Thor. 😤 More to come later.

@tylerdaguerre What’s one more thing in a laundry list of terribleness? 🥴

Is it true that Elon Musk spent $44B on Twitter? Yes. Could that money have gone to more noble causes like eradicating homelessness or food insecurity? Yes. But does that make him a bad person? Yes.
