So loud with all these fireworks, I might as well vacuum my apartment.

“We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others, that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.” —François de La Rochefoucauld

Can you believe I ran out of toner for my printer? Luckily this happened after I printed out a 146,000 word manuscript, and not before...

Shame on @springernature.com for union busting! We call on @sciam.bsky.social’s new owner @labx.org to recognize the @sciamunion.bsky.social and prepare to bargain a fair first contract. Thank you to everyone who joined yesterday’s Scientific American Union rally in solidarity ✊

It's like a huge self hating concession to homophobes. Like I'm not like those nasty queers, I'm just gay. Queer is a term that reclaims being transgressive. And that author wants to avoid that so she doesn't scare normies. She wants to fit in & assimilate. For context I identify as queer, I'm bi.

Thanks to William Cooper for this interview about TERRY DACTYL, which also includes questions about my writing life, history, process, methods, and inspirations🌺

Our language has and will always be malleable. Gayness itself has been and continues to be a malleable language and banner. (Mark D Jordan, Queer Callings p.37)

Yes, I can't wait for this “wide-ranging exploration of the way typos impact, imperil, and ultimately enrich our lives through the randomness, delight, humor, and danger they engender”💫⚡🌟

This is why queer makes sense to me as a guiding ethos; more than an identity, it can be a practice, pathway and guide.

Recalling artist-writer-activist Derek Jarman writing in 1991 about Ian McKellen & the gay & lesbian rights group Stonewall & their politics of respectability: “If this is what gay has to offer I’m glad I’m queer.” And later he asks, “Why should we leave this little cabal to control gay politics?”

Okay, so the author of some book called God and the Gay Christian: The Biblical Case in Support of Same-Sex Relationships wrote an op-ed in the tragic paper of record titled "I’m Gay, Not Queer" HONEY WE ARE SHOCKED JUST SHOCKED TO HEAR THIS👠🔥

Danger, danger, queers are dancing in the street... Are these the same cops that waved the rainbow flag in the pride parade the next day? All of them must go, abolition now💥

Frame made me think about mirrors though, and doors, and how those frames are the same and different in what they can offer and what they exclude. A door frame without a door, a threshold to cross; or a visual response, an affirmation or misrecognition…

Writing in order to survive, surviving in order to write.

In this haze I thought about writing, the emotion that overwhelms, the emotion that overrides, the motion of emotion or no, the notion of emotion? No, that’s ridiculous, let’s stay with emotion, not just a notion, more of a frame except for that shutting off, how can you frame when you’re off.

Yes to this world, always and forever🌷🌷🌷

Yes, please!!💥

A new bloom for a new day 🌼🌼🌼
