Grab this hot read for free and use the money you would have spent on this for a trans person's mutual aid 💜

Can you help??

just a little something I’m working on based on another little something I’m working on…

H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban all my books, & any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps & say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

doing a reread of lord of scoundrels for the first time in years and my god…what an absolutely delicious read I did not properly appreciate the first time around. I loved it then but it strikes differently now, like a divine act by god

I know it’s difficult right now, but I insist that you seek and enjoy beautiful things, even if it seems frivolous or irresponsible in the face of overwhelming horror. I want you to feed yourself artistically, spiritually, and literally, because you can’t Do The Work when you’re starving.

the "just asking questions" to "legitimate questions about fairness in sports" to "the state doesn't have to consider us as real people" pipeline working exactly as designed.

To any Democrat who ever said about any issue, "Maybe if we agree with Republicans just this far, they'll stop there," remember that you were wrong, it was obvious at the time, and you really should never believe that again about any issue, ever.

Fun fact, US passports did not have a gender marker until 1977, when a rising trend in unisex fashion started freaking the government out.

I made a partial payment, but the rest of my rent needs to be paid off in one lump sum ASAP and I still need about $1,950 to cover just my rent. I’m really getting desperate and I don’t know what else to do. Any help and shares are appreciated!

Learning to draw really just takes lots of time and practice. But when you say that a bunch of people are like "if that was true, then I could do it!" And then you're like "yes" and then they're like "see? that's why you're lying!!" and then they continue to not practice because they don't like to

Amazon removed all my books for "multiple accounts" which I do not and never did have. If you'd like to support a trans queer indie author, please buy my books at other retailers. Itchio: devinharnois.itch.io Apple: books.apple.com/us/author/de... B&N: www.barnesandnoble.com/s/%22Devin%2...

Many years ago, I was feeling stressed by the state of the world and I started a Holiday Fairies thing where people sent me their wishlists and I publicized them to try to get everyone gifts for the holidays. @shelflove.bsky.social skillfully took it over and made it An Actual Thing! Like SRSLY!

If you are having a rough year and are worried you can't get gifts for the people in your life, you can sign up here and submit your wishlist. If you are someone who has a little bit extra and wants to give someone else joy? Find one & buy them something! shelflovepodcast.com/holiday-fair...

People who pirate books: “I just think art and literature should be FREE to everyone!” Yes, I too would love to live in a world where art is accessible freely to all and yet artists are paid a living wage, but as this magical wagical pixie wixie land does not exist, please don’t steal from us.
