Hi! I'm Angela, a 37-year-old #transgender #Canadian who's into endurance #running, #werewolves, and #writing spooky/funny fiction. I live near #Vancouver. I'm a #lesbian who married the perfect woman 13 years ago. By day I'm a #frontend dev & I love pivoting what I've learned there into weird programmatic art projects. I edit the collaborative WEREWOLVES VERSUS anthology and run werewolf-news.com. I love that good good #McElroy content and despise cilantro. This has been my #introduction!
Well, @SOLARDOG got the best posts online today โ the rest of us can take the day off

Better to be a helpful friendly invisible intangible presence, occupying no space, warranting no remark and no thought

I had plans to go to Sephora and use this gift card on some lip scrub, and talk to someone about booking my complementary makeover session, but right now the idea of being seen โ or interacting at all with anyone โ is too much

running, fitness, pain
C.S. Lewis, from The Problem of Pain: "I may trust my own feeling, a slight aching in the legs as we climb into bed after a good dayโs walking is, in fact, pleasurable."
running, fitness, pain
The pain doesn't feel like a warning, it feels like accumulated fatigue that each rest day doesn't quite resolve. Running through it feels both possible and, weirdly, exhilarating. Slowly the threshold for the effort that causes that pain is rising. Eventually it'll take increased pace over longer distance to get this sore.
Do By Friday
The conversation these two have in the after show is spectacular, though. Iโd love more like this, especially from Alex!
