Today, I woke up HALFWAY TO 90! And somehow, that's still less traumatizing than when a friend announced at 15 we were all halfway to 30. What's really traumatizing is realizing that moment is now 30 years in the past. Ah well, happy birthday to me!

If you're out protesting today in my hometown of CHARLOTTE, or anywhere else in the country, know that although I cannot be with you physically, I am with you. Thank you for doing the hard work. Fuck 🧊. Fuck 🍊. #NoKings

We're pretty much all agreed that if you don't have to fly right now, DON'T FLY. However, if you don't have a choice, I have some wardrobe options for you if you want to send a message. Fuck 🧊. #FuckICE

Based on recent traffic, I'm not the only one who is stoked by the animated Firefly reboot announcement! I'm a dyed-in-the-wool Browncoat. I will take more Firefly any way I can get it, and an animated series is the perfect way to continue sharing stories of our favorite crew. #firefly

Mark your calendars for my next real-life appearances this spring! I'll be at the fourth annual @matthewscomiccon on March 7, 2026, and at the Nerd & Nom Market (Fantasy Edition) on April 19. I really value talking to customers face-to-face, so I hope to see you there!

Wherever you're celebrating, and however you're celebrating, I hope your day is full of joy and peace. To anyone who is hurting, I wish for brighter days ahead. Thank you to all of you for your ongoing support. Here's to a much-improved 2026!

It's time for the 2025 Art vs. Artist Roundup. I created a lot of designs I am proud of this year, so it was hard to choose which ones to highlight. There was definitely an overarching "Fuck Trump" theme, which I will be carrying into 2026. #artvartist

Friendly reminder that a LOT of the "reason for the season" folks would also report said reason to ICE. So maybe just celebrate in whatever way feels right to you.

I am something unusual: A native of Charlotte, North Carolina, still living in her hometown. Not only that, but I am also the daughter of a Charlotte native living in his hometown. When people learn I'm "from here," it's almost always met with a look of surprise. #charlottenc

A portion of the proceeds from every sale in the FairyNerdy Etsy stores is earmarked for donation to a blue cause. This round's donation is going to Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina as part of the Charlotte Geeks' team to benefit local families harmed by the shutdown and limited SNAP benefits.

Looking for something to do tomorrow? Come out and see me at the 2025 Geekery Market at the Cabarrus Arena & Events Center. This is my favorite event every year, and it's always a great time! Whatever your fandom, you're bound to find something you love. Saturday, Nov. 15, from 10am until 4pm.

Tomorrow I'll be at the Nerd & Nom Market in Sun Valley Commons in Indian Trail, NC, from noon until 5 pm. Be sure to drop by for all the magic!

At this point, why be subtle? The other side certainly isn't. Say what you feel and, since it's the holidays, say it with CHEER! A new holiday collection is now in the FairyNerdy Etsy store. This design is available on t-shirts, hoodies, and crewneck sweatshirts. Fa la la la la la la Fuck Trump!

I can't believe there is currently no Halloween candy in my house. Not for trick-or-treaters, FOR ME!!! I need some chocolate, stat. #halloween2025

Dad jokes for the win!

I have a t-shirt with a "The Reader" tarot card whose central figure is a skeleton. The last time I wore it, my dad asked, "Is that The Grim Reader? Har Har Har." And so, this design was born. Who knew Grim was into smut? #reader

Halloween has landed at FairyNerdy! And, specifically, Summerween! I just learned Summerween was even a thing. You guys have GOT to keep me informed on trends. That's your whole job! I also recently perfected making sticker sheets with my current setup so...voila! #summerween

What? Too dramatic? You think with a "president" who idolizes dictators, is aiming to eliminate elections, and is opening concentration camps on American soil, we'll still be "independent" this time next year?

Democracy is dying, but you enjoy your fireworks. #FourthOfJuly

Happy Gotcha Day, Murphy Doodle! Ten years have flown by so quickly, but you have always been the happiest, smiliest, funniest, goodest boi! #adoptdontshop

You may remember that I announced in January that I would be donating 15% of each sale in my Etsy store to a blue cause! I've just done the tally for March through May 2025, and was able to donate $70 to the National Immigrant Justice Center. 🧵

Happy Obama Appreciation Day to all who celebrate! If you're out on the front lines at the No Kings Day protests, I applaud you and I thank you from the bottom of my heart. Stay safe, protect your cohorts and yourselves! PEOPLE have the power.

I can't get away from AI, and I wish I could. From AI engines advertising on social media, and people asking, "Why aren't you using AI in your business?," it is EVERYWHERE. 1/4
