I love punk music (and ska, so much ska) and maintain a strong affinity for DC punk, to the point where I have a genuine desire to play in a Nation of Ulysses-style cacophonous super-weird emo-hardcore band and feel frustratingly stunted by my inability to play an instrument. I am snappy and fiery about certain aspects of activism, mostly centered on supporting survivors of sexual assault and abuse, promoting positive animal care and health, crisis intervention, empowering medicine, food justice, and permaculture. Sobriety is an important part of my life as it is now, for personal reasons; taking a cue from some other folks, I've labeled myself a Teetotal Babe, but there's always such complexity with this issue that I don't write about it much. I love Bull Terriers, crepes, cuddling with animals and people, science, decorating, and learning.
