This is a body positive blog!

All the things I like or find interesting. I believe that every person deserves to be treated with respect regardless or their size, sex, gender, race or ability.

I also enjoy novels, graphic novels/comics, movies, throwbacks from the 80's and (1980 and 1880) fabulousness and many things nerdy.

I’m sitting in my car

Outside a gaming shop, practicing Hedwigs Theme, on my ocarina.

New levels of geek I never knew I has in me.
