Laneia would rather be in the forest. She's been writing things on the internet since 2006. For a while she wrote for OurChart [RIP] which is, according to Riese, one of the only interesting decisions OurChart ever made. Laneia's more or less in charge of communicating effectively for Autostraddle.com and she succeeds in this endeavor ~73% of the time. She is the last sincere person on earth.
