Fireflies , smores, and that time I might have accidentally kinda started a faerie war by Alex Nonymoous

It takes a special kind of evil to be a mean girl at an autistic summer camp, but Faith Harris has been excelling at that ever since she first arrived.

Whenever that was. Despite her obsession with Faith, Lots and the rest of her cabinmates can never seem to pinpoint exactly how long they’ve known her.

Still, Lots is going to enjoy this summer. She only has a couple of years left until she’ll have to leave camp and the friendships she’s made there behind, so she’s determined to make the most of it.

Even with camp attendance dwindling. And her best friend signing up to spend a lot more time away from Lots than they’d previous discussed. And the entirety of Faerie declaring war against her cabin after Lots accidentally annoys Faith into revealing her true nature.

Yup, this summer is going to be perfect.

My Thoughts

my son bought me this for my birthday. he was super excited about it. the author is pansexual and autistic. and they write characters that show queer and autistic traits. I honestly felt seen . the story was so much fun and it was something that was truly rich characters.

my response is ( though late still )

according to the constitution
the definition of citizenship 
is either one born on this soil
or one that follows the rules 
and takes the tests to gain
the green card to become one.

if you stop them from getting the tests 
you stop the legal process for citizenship ...
this country was founded on immigrants 
the idea of immigration. the only non-immigrants were born here.

and even those were often 
children of immigrants.

Saturday Thoughts

This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.

I feel like the week flies by. I swear I just posted my count yesterday.

I have a couple of new medications.

my response is :

a house with no foundation
falls in so quickly...
so too does the soul 
without ego fail.

We need to build 
a foundation,
stable and true...
so that with time
we know the ability 
to face the truth.

Serena’s response:

in the twilight 
of the cemetery
bleeding blooms 
give relief to the chaos 
of the grieving souls.

Though the bleeding
is but illusionary,
it adds to the feeling 
of the graveyard at night.

my response is:

our forefathers set up hope 
in a nation so young...
it was supposed to be freedom 
for all and welcoming arms 
for those who need sanctuary.

the new government are pirates 
stealing the dream.
piracy of hope seems to be 
unbelievable and profane...
for the reality of this country 
is nowhere near what everyone 
believed it would be.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 14

my response is :

you were always there
when I awoke after 
dreaming violence.

A soft safe space 
to wrap around me
when I shake from 
remembered violence.

I wrap myself in your love 
knowing that I am done 
with violence and am safe.

Lyrics –

We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teacher, leave them kids alone
Hey, teacher, leave them kids alone
All in all, it’s just another brick in the wall
All in all, you’re just another brick in the wall
We don’t need no education
We don’t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers, leave them kids alone
Hey, teacher, leave us kids alone
All in all, you’re just another brick in the wall
All in all, you’re just another brick in the wall
If you don’t eat yer meat, you can’t have any pudding
How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat yer meat?
You! (if you don’t eat yer meat)
Yes, you behind the bike stands (you can’t have any pudding)
(How can you have any pudding if you don’t eat yer meat?) Stand still, laddy!
You! Yes, you behind the bike stands…

My 2 cents –

okay this song has a story. I started 9th grade 6 weeks late due to childbirth. my best friend at the time (who was dating ny step brother) decided that my first day of school hadd to be special. She brought a big boombox to school and as I got off the bus blasted this song so loud the cafeteria windows shook. it was incredible and memorable.
