I’m interested in creating a writing crit group for trans femmes that will meet regularly online. Comics and prose, generally. Genre fiction, mostly. It will be a small group, 4-6 people or so. This is a group for serious trans lady-types who have professional writing goals. DM me if interested!

Just remember, whatever stats ALA drops, the reality is even worse. A not insignificant number of schools don't report to ALA, and ALA doesn't have the staff in OIF to go out and track down this information. This looks bad, but it's likely worse. www.ala.org/news/2026/04...

Los Angeles Area friendos! ICE has been spotted lurking in Whittier today. Stay alert, and keep your neighbors safe.

Breaking: HHS’s ban on gender-affirming care is struck down. Rarely have I read a ruling this sharply worded. “This case is one of a long list of examples of how a leader’s wanton disregard for the rule of law causes very real harm to very real people.” www.advocate.com/politics/nat...

One of the silliest things about writing for young people is the shade authors get for it—as if it’s easier. This shows me that A. You don’t understand that this is where the big work is being done to help children build empathy and critical thinking, and B. You haven’t read the right books.

I have been watching the docket here because I wanted to see if the defendants would ask for an award of attorneys' fees, a thing they are entitled to do under copyright law. They did. They are asking for Lynn Freeman to pay them more than $3 million in attorneys fees and costs for this lawsuit.

Hungary's prime minister elect announcing that Orbán was funding CPAC and other Trump-related political activities (also Heritage Foundation's Project 2025), and this will now end.

Smallest time traveler knows what’s up

substack is trying to lock people into their lil ecosystem so they cannot leave which means they are gonna make it harder and harder to take subscribers with you. meaning that now is probably as easy as it will ever be to try a different platform. many of my faves have done it!

If you’re wondering why I’m doing so much #ttrpg posting lately, it’s because otherwise the news would have me posting shit I would 100%’be going to prison for.

this is the crux of it human made art, especially that of creators from marginalized communities, is more important than ever if you don’t support it loudly and monetarily, we can’t keep making it most of us are barely hanging on as it is this is how you help us make more of the stuff you love!

“A crew is inescapably, beautifully, dutifully linked… when we saw tiny Earth,ppl asked our crew what impressions we had.& honestly,what struck me wasn’t…just Earth.

Nearly six years reporting on working homeless families taught me one thing: the precarity isn't incidental to the profits. It's how you get them. Kimberly-Clark could pay a living wage and still clear almost $2 billion a year. They can afford to pay workers enough to live. They just choose not to.

I'm one of those trans women. I worked ground ops for Artemis I. I am torn between celebrating the success of my friends and peers and grieving how my dream of working for NASA was shattered by hateful assholes in Tallahassee
