woe, birds be upon ye

ABOUT ME! i'm sasha yadriel, or valentina/xochitl (among other monikers), real life bird typing on the computer.

i'm also a part-time student and amateur wildlife photographer. i'm mixed native (ojibwe and tsalagi) and white; chicana; muslim; and a disabled butch trans asegi/2spirit lesbian (she/it/bug)

i enjoy audio dramas, sports (real and fake), diving into media analysis, poetry, horror lit, and wildlife, among other things. i photograph with a canon EOS 2000D.

ask me about birds! i've also been very into one piece as of late.
