UPDATE. 4/27/2023:

Once long ago I was a proofreader/beta reader in fandom. I’m looking to get back to that, since it was fun and I like feeling helpful.

If anyone is looking for a beta reader, feel free to reach out!

Some FYIs

• If you think you know me from another blog that’s now gone: you might! (such as totalityofthegrump or dontroastmeitsonlymonday, or vaguelysaunteredd, or lucimoosey) (there are other, older, URLs too)
• I’m older than 25. I’m tired. I’m always tired
• i do not believe in “spamming” notifications. if you like something, like it. if you want to reblog something, reblog it.
• On that note: if it is rebloggable it is fair game. If I don’t want it reblogged I can just turn that off.
• I do Not Care about what pronouns you use for me. Not a whit.
• I go by Alex on here but answer to just about anything.
• side blog is Deus-angst-machina
• I’ve been here on one blog or another since at least 2010. I’ve seen all the bullshit. Nothing is new.
• I block often and filter tags frequently. Learned long ago it’s just happier this way.
• on that note: Blank Blogs. Y'all look like bots, you get blocked like bots. Them’s the breaks. Don’t Look Like A Bot.
• all other details are to be learned during my sporadic over sharing in the tags
• see me rambling about my OCs and have questions? go ahead and pester me in the ask box. I’m always up for rambling even more about my OCs
• edit: oh yeah and fuck terfs, etc etc etc

some navigation tags below the cut

Ramblings: just whatever is on my mind

tales from the office: excerpts from the exciting life of an auditor

oc rambles: general oc chatter

The name of this creature is YOTAcat or POTOOcat.

This creature is a combination of Yotaka (potoo) and cat.

His true identity is one of an alien reconnaissance unit that plans to invade the earth.

His body can change its shape at will by copying other creatures and objects.

When he came to Earth, he first tried to copy the appearance of the planet's main life form.

However, the first thing he saw there was a cat. He decided that the creature was the main life form and tried to copy the cat's form.

However, by some accident, he also copied the information of Potoo, and his body became a chimera of cat and Potoo.

What was even more unexpected for these aliens was that once they copied the earth creatures, the original spirit invaded their psyche.

His spirit was about to be taken over by cats and POTOO!

The human who found the strange creature brought it home out of curiosity. Not knowing it was a vicious alien.......

you ever accidentally create a recurring theme in your writing. you start putting together an outline for something you’ve never written before and get partway through planning, rearrange the pieces, and go “GODDAMMIT THIS IS ABOUT GRIEF AGAIN”? because let me tell you,
