I don't like writing but the little man in my brain constructed a type writer out of scrap metal and garbage and now I must get his writing out of my head and onto the google doc.
I like etymology.
I like entomology.
However I am stupid, and I can never remember which one is which

I can't express enough just how important Kaz Brekker is for younger disabled people. I first read Six of Crows when I was sixteen years old and just starting to experience more severe symptoms of my chronic illness. I refused to get a mobility aid because I felt like it was admitting defeat, like it would make me weak. Then I read about Kaz Brekker- a boy my age going through similar pain and need for aid that I am, and he was Strong. He wasn't just strong in spite of his disability, he was stronger For it. Having such a strong, dangerous, and honestly just Really Cool character with a disability not entirely unlike my own completely shifted my view of my limitations. I got myself the cane I needed and I started to feel almost proud to walk with it. It turned from something that made me feel weak into something that felt powerful and defiant- like I was reminding a world that wasn't designed for people like me to live in that I will Not accept defeat and that I will continue to live my life using the tools at my disposal. Without that representation I might not have reached that place of acceptance, especially not so quickly..
We have disability representation in media, but often those characters are portrayed as softer, weaker, quieter characters. Those one-note portrayals made me feel like that's all I could ever be. Then Kaz Brekker came in and showed me that people like me can be strong too. That means the world to young disabled people. We need representation like this. We need to feel strong again.
that “canon vs fanon” meme is so accurate with Inej istg
I’m rereading Crooked Kingdom. Is this your soft, quiet, peaceful little girl??
“Before Van Eck could take another breath, she slammed her forehead upward, shattering his nose. He screamed and released her as blood gushed over his fine mercher suit.” “‘Go on, Van Eck, threaten me. Tell me all the little things I am. You lay a finger on me and Kaz Brekker will cut the baby from your pretty wife’s stomach and hang its body from a balcony at the Exchange.’”
saints, I love her so
