Since I came out of the age closet on Christmas Day 2015, here is some more info.
I was born in 1975 on 12th Feb. I share this birthday with Abraham Lincoln. He looks better in a top hat tho.
I am very much an a Aquarius (barring the vanilla milkshake star sign post - seriously who in their right mind puts Aquarius as a vanilla milkshake. We are flying saucer or popping candy flavour!)
Pluto is a planet and frack everyone who disagrees.
Battlestar Galactica made every single bit of news coverage about 'fracking' hilarious to me.
Flurble is my favourite word. 2nd favourite is Porcupine. 3rd is Wibble as spoken by Blackadder.
Postordiea is a take on my usual Internet handle - Lieva Ordiea.
I have a long standing grudge against Apples (yes the fruit) They are too healthy and good for you and they taste nice. Irritatingly perfect little things.
I am only 30% joking about most things...
Just FYI I know it's snowing in my header. When it stops being an awesome piece of fan art I won't use it. Don't hold your breath tho waiting.

The date for the Science March on Washington (and like a billion other places) has finally been announced and everything about it looks lit
On Wednesday, the March for Science Twitter account posted an announcement stating that the march would take place on April 22 — which also happens to be Earth Day. Here’s everything you need to know to make sue you show up in force no matter what.
Signal Boost! March for Planet Earth!
Do you know what this is? This is The Heart from Auschwitz.
An act of defiance.
A statement of hope.
A crime punishable by death.On December 12, 1944, locked inside Auschwitz, Polish teenager Fania turned twenty. After spending a year in a concentration camp, Fania didn’t expect her birthday to even be remembered - but her best friend, Zlatka, risked everything to make her a birthday present, a paper heart.
Simply making the heart - or carrying it - could get either of them killed.
The heart was signed by many of their friends, bearing notes in Polish, German, French, and Hebrew that announced "When you get old, put your glasses on your nose, take this album in your hand and read my signature again,“ and “Freedom! Freedom! Freedom!” It was an act of great sacrifice and love for a friend.
Less than 40 days later, they began the Death March from Auschwitz to Ravensbruck, and from Ravensbruck to freedom. Fania carried the heart under her arm the whole time. And survived.
Fania donated the heart to the Montreal Holocaust Memorial Center in 1988, where it is a featured piece of their exhibit. You can read more about the story of Fania and Zlatka Meg Wiviott’s Paper Hearts, coming September 2015.
it’s that time of year
Oh thank goodness there’s still time for this.
Oh who am I kidding it’s always time for this.
