#LGBTQWriteAThon June 3 #PoweredNovel started as a fanfic. I put out a call to my tumblr friends asking, "what kind of AU should I write?" My BFF suggested "...superheroes?" (this was in 2015, mind you). Next thing you know, I'm making a spreadsheet of who has what powers, and the rest is history.

#LGBTQWriteAThon June 2: Maybe not quite "play" the characters, but I've always pictured #PoweredNovel as animated. Studio Bones (Cowboy Bebop) or Madhouse (One Punch Man season 1) would be the dream studios....

I'll come back tomorrow for this. 1 like = a genuine compliment to a piece of media I dislike.

Nobody: My brain at 3 am:

#LGBTQWriteAThon June 1: Howdy! I'm S. J. aka Wrath, trans and agender and ace and a little bit gay I guess? Main goals are to finish revising Arc 2 of my superhero novel, "Powered," and to write ~310 words a day on its sequel!

Hey #bksky and #readersofqueerbooks I have special PRIDE bundles available! You can find them here: itch.io/s/186807/pri... itch.io/s/186808/que... itch.io/s/186809/pri...

HAPPY PRIDE! It’s Pride Bundles for charity time! We're selling bundles, and a % of the proceeds go to the Queer Liberation Library and the Transgender Law Center. You can learn more about the bundles here: duckprintspress.com/2026/06/01/b... or go straight to our shop: duckprintspress.com/shop/

Why did you transition? Right answers only. You know how sometimes, a male deer gets its antlers locked with another deer, and rips that deer's head off, then has to walk around carrying a dead deer head in front of its face? I wanted to get rid of the dead deer head attached to my head.

PSA: Bluesky's new auto-tagging moderation stuff is a disaster. Disable it. Go into Settings on the Bluesky site and enable adult content and set everything to Warn at most, which makes posts opt-in. Hide just vanishes posts. Then go into Advanced/Bluesky Mod Service and do the same on everything.

Hey, it would be really cool if this met its goal: www.kickstarter.com/projects/mxj...

bullshit that in order to promote my writing i have to be sociable and likeable. for you see, writing is what i do to make up for the fact that i am neither of those things.

Hey Cis folks that are into History. Here is some of ours! It's extremely cool. Also, if any Transes havent checked this channel out its so good and this video has TWO sculptures of Ancient Trans Girls! I cried a lil!

Or garages, attics, basements, pretty much anywhere rodents could get into. If you do see droppings, wear protective gear (KN95 mask & gloves at least!) to clean it up, shower & wash clothes after. You do NOT want this virus.

i can't explain it any other way except that houses *want* to be old

There's two ways you can get not-so-super Powers and one of them is in Evanston, IL #WIPSnips #PoweredNovel

shale, mudstone, siltstone, sandstone, conglomerate, breccia

A sapphic satirical superhero story? By moi? With Real Lesbians, plenty of camp, backed by a heartfelt love story and Fighting - dare I title drop? - THE POWERS THAT BE? Of course!

this is a state sponsored children's torture camp

Happy Friday, for some reason, I've grown self-conscious about putting my book out there, so I'm trying to be brave, here ya go, tricksters & time travel and I hope you give this non-binary Fox god and their potential new very-nice-but-kind-of-a-fuck-up acolyte a try <3 bookshop.org/p/books/audi...

At the beginning: yes, absolutely; Emma is a highly successful, respected roboticist with a promising career ahead of her. At the end: everything has gone completely to hell and she's much better off for it.

Without downloading anything new, where are you, mentally?

First one that comes to mind is from Ray Bradbury's short story "Banshee" "And my room was so high, so lost in the house and the sky, that no matter who or what tapped or knocked or banged at the door below, whispering and then begging and then screaming-- Who could possibly hear?"

companion piece to "when was the last time you jumped" when's the last time you ran *as fast as you could?*

I'm excited to get to know all the characters for this picaresque lost-in-space thing I just started

And evergreen advice for any kind of alarming email/phone call. Something I have struggled to remember when I've been phished, for real.

For the 152nd time in history, the Kentucky Derby has been won by a horse

You're telling me a vibe coded this website?

And in case you missed me raving about it the first time, I'm super-digging the gothic musical theatre vibe of this whole album, which is queer as fuck and utterly heartbreaking and beautiful and broken and... look, just go listen to it and you'll see what I mean.
