Happy belated ten year anniversary, Biff and Rogan!
(And today, I learned that the Japanese term for that up-against-the-wall pose is apparently kabedon. I didn't include it in the alt-text because I have no idea how well-known that term is.)

Apocalyptic Mini-Story One: the Heralds of the End
Jan. 22nd, 2026 07:09 pmlb_leeIt was a tight race, but this was one of the two apocalyptic mini-stories that won the fan poll this month! (I planned to post the two together but... sick.) Rogan apparently originally wrote this story on 2020/4/14. This is probably the shortest story we will ever post on this blog.
the Heralds of the End
As the world crumbles, the heralds of the End ride up on their pale horses. They cross the empty streets, calling up to the shuttered windows, “As the End comes upon you, consider: have you conducted yourself well? Have you devoted yourself to what truly matters?”
I open my window and hold out my beefcake.
“Very good,” they say. “Carry on.”

ÂNGELA: "In Spiritualism There’s Real Equality"
Jan. 21st, 2026 05:25 pmlb_leeThis is a very brief selection from a much larger 1988 book I found in a free box, Brazilian Women Speak: Contemporary Life Stories. It is a life story from a woman involved with Brazilian spiritualism (more specifically, umbanda). The book is still miraculously in print, and there is a screen-readable version for the print-disabled on archive.org.
Citation: Patai, Daphne. “ÂNGELA: ‘In Spiritualism There’s Real Equality.’” In Brazilian Women Speak: Contemporary Life Stories, 109-110, 120-125, 364-365. New Brunswick: Rutgers,1988.

BONE BROTTTTHHHH!!!
Jan. 19th, 2026 05:56 pmlb_leeMori: since I wasn’t going to be much good for anything else today, I decided to make bone broth, since it takes a gazillion hours and requires nothing but you sitting to make sure it don’t catch fire. You just take your bones and various veggie odds’n’ends (I had about a chicken and a half worth of bones, plus carrot stubs, a onion, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns), pour water over ‘em, and simmer for a million years. I been simmering that shit for going on seven hours now; the recipe I got said up to twelve but no way can I stay up to 2AM for that.
It’s still pretty weak, but it’s all my body wants and I swear this is the most delicious shit I done ever put in my mouth. My body is ENTHUSIASTIC about it, and it been enthusiastic about jack fucking shit today.
I AM NEVER NOT MAKING BONE BROTH EVER AGAIN.

Missing Monday Arisia
Jan. 19th, 2026 05:44 amlb_leeWoke up with a sore throat. So mad. Trying to figure out how to get my wares without exposing other people to my germs, which the snow outside is not simplifying.
UGH.
EDIT: logistics sorted! Thank you, Arisia friends! T_T you are the best!

New Email
Jan. 13th, 2026 12:32 pmlb_lee(EDIT: Sneak: I have updated healthymultiplicity.com with our new email address and also fixed the homepage redirect error. Tomorrow, I will focus on cross-posting all our public DW posts to make them publicly accessible again, and maybe update hm.com with back-up links.)
Rogan: Okay, thank fuck, there were a few snowballing complications, but I finally have a working public-facing email again.
I am using the Dreamwidth forwarding address feature, so in case my new public email gets killed, I can just keep the same address and avoid this kinda chaos again. (I should've done this earlier, but this is one of the many features of Dreamwidth that I never paid attention to, because up until this moment, I never needed or wanted such a thing.)
If you need to get ahold of us, you can now drop us a line at lb_lee at dreamwidth.org. For as long as this site or us are still around, and as long as this feature is part of a Paid account, it should hold.
Working on updating healthymultiplicity.com to update our new address, and then finally getting around the Mississippi blog ban that I've needed to take care of for months. Stay tuned!
