I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about all the Wicked tie-in marketing and no matter how annoying you find it, spare a thought for me who worked front of house at Wicked for two years and thought I had long since escaped it…

HELLO W̶O̶R̶L̶D̶ YOU Siobhan Dunlop @fiendfull.bsky.social 31 of wim's favourite poems from kith books #SealeyChallenge 4/31

One must imagine Mario happy

"home me into the frame I dream of" - finally, a use for gender, Siobhan Dunlop engenderedlitmag.com/summer2025

I was recording a video featuring my actual face today so of course I managed to wear a t shirt with a stain on it. And then a ghost (movement of the door) caused a dead plant to fall off the windowsill in the recording room. Hopefully by now there’s a ‘remove chaos’ button in most video editors.

"I tell people: you've got to be very clear because computers don't understand anything except on/off ones and zeros binary;" - Siobhan Dunlop, Syntax Error Print: kithbooks.com/shop/p/dunlop eBook: kithbooks.com/digital/p/dunlop

Of big tech and binaries, Siobhan Dunlop's Syntax Error is one step in the history of how we've been failed. @fiendfull.bsky.social

404 Ink have been amazing - I’ve read so many of their books and their lit mag was one of the first places to publish my poems.

www.sevenstories.com/books/4753-f... it is my birthday today, and one awesome gift you can give me is preordering my gay trans vampire novel about a teen runaway trying to save Seattle’s vampires and a slayer-turned-vampire struggling with whether she is evil

it's end of quarter over here so if you want to help pride month go out on a high note for a queer or trans author, pick up a book kithbooks.com/shop

So excited to have a new poem on Anthropocene today! Back to some tech-related poetry for me

"I know some cis people who are good at building furniture and I don’t know about the prowess of trans people, as good as we are at buying blåhaj in ikea," - Siobhan Dunlop, Queering the Furniture Building Experience @fiendfull.bsky.social engenderedlitmag.com/summer2025

deceptively painful, @fiendfull.bsky.social's Queering the Furniture Building Experience speaks to the lost so many trans people are feeling. we're building futures, they're changing the rules.

en*gendered - summer 2025 is coming June 3rd engenderedlitmag.com

Just finished reading A/S/L by Jeanne Thornton, to which my review is 'wow, what an awesome book about not completing making a video game'. Also there's a few things I now cannot do in the project I'm working on because she's done them better (including the title concept). I like that in a book.

i wrote for @tribunemagazine.bsky.social about the supreme court judgment, and how the idea that it ‘clarifies’ gender is actually a violent project to reify right-wing ideas of ‘nature’ and produce a two-tier gendered system

"I would recommend this book, not only for its cunning and captivating way with words, but to all future history students, as a record of our digital lives in late stage capitalism, just before our Cloud masters press Ctrl Alt Delete." -JP Seabright (@jpseabright.bsky.social) @fiendfull.bsky.social

Time is of the essence and we need to fight the EHRC interim guidance before it becomes statutory and Parliament make it law. Don’t just shout about it, write to them. Also tell the media, if you can get them to care. I’ve posted this on Instagram. Speak to your unions and staff networks at work

we consistently get compliments for our covers. they come, by and large, from our authors so I get to agree. they're amazing in person. these 16 drew outsized attention at AWP.

I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold

In Syntax Error, Siobhan Dunlop explores computer binary and the gender binary, feeling right and wrong, on and off. The world wide web glitches and burns around us, let’s make our selves art from the ashes. @fiendfull.bsky.social

Social media? It's the broligarch's mirror world, and we pretend to live in it. My latest for Liberal Currents about Meta's latest insidious turn, and how it reveals social media for what it was always trying to be: an individualist fantasy, controlled by the super rich and *their* fantasies.

Congratulations to Dr Alice Rhodes on the publication of her book, British Romanticism and the Matter of Voice 🎉🥂📚

Spent the day running an invent a story workshop at work (ostensibly around digital creativity though I did all the narrative structure and creative writing bits) and then on the walk home got an email for my first poetry acceptance in ages. I guess writing is back.
