  1. sententiola said: I don’t understand how that word can mean ‘dragonfly’ rather than ‘small pamphlet’. Something weird is going on with etymology.

My name is Jared, or you can just call me Tchy. I'm a queer kid just kickin' around on the internet. I like writing, fantasy, late nights, books, lions, punk, and queer politics. I sustain myself mainly on a diet of chocolate, salt and vinegar chips, and strong tea in a mug decorated with dirty Shakespeare quotations. Sometimes I like to draw inappropriate things.

This is who I am.
This is my face.
These are some tags.
These are my people.
These are my minions.
I curate this collection.
I live in the Queer Haus.
I have an Etsy shop.
Leave me a question.
Leave me something more.

If you need me, I will listen.
