“AI’s not so bad. It’s only doing wh—Aaagh! What the hell is that!” #aisucks

No shame in detransition or retransition. There is shame, however, for the detransitioners who work with anti-trans organizations to spread their hateful message … and then retransition! They always were trans, they just shit on everybody else, because that’s just asshole human nature, guess? 🤷🏼‍♀️

the anti-trans to anti-neurodiversity pipeline continues to flow. it is obviously absurd anywhere, but it's so detached from reality in Ireland, where we have a massive backlog of children seeking autism diagnoses and no public provision of adult diagnosis at all

Don’t mess with young Waylon Jennings … or he’ll eat you alive!

I really don’t care. Do U?

Thank you so much! It's not for everyone, but if you like small, weird hits of the bizarre, check it out: cockroach.org

A yard full of spiders. Beautiful, fascinating, majestic creatures.

Researching the FTC’s upcoming attack on trans rights. It’s essentially being led by Glenna Goldis, a young “LGB” lawyer who has appointed herself judge, jury and executioner of trans policy in the US. Science supports trans rights, but who cares what science says? substack.com/@glennagoldi...

They. Just. Never. Stop. It’s a solution in search of a problem, and they know it. They see teh trans as the ones they can pick off without causing too much complaining from everyone else. It’s malice for it’s own sake. www.wired.com/story/the-fe...

Letter to a young poet Here's what I suggest: Find two shades of blue That speak to you Clearer than the rest Then choose a few subjects Trees, clouds, apples, waves Or whatever pleases you Then spend your life Depicting them in Two shades of blue.

I know everything is shit. It's not good, it's mostly all bad. I am STILL going to enjoy this morning. I am STILL going to be happy. I am STILL going to listen to some of my favorite music. I will NOT be separated from simply joys. I WILL have hope. And I WILL fight to keep it.

The great Diane Arbus. She took classic photos of the underbelly of America, with empathy, intelligence, and compassion. She was an early mentor of Stanley Kubrick’s, and he paid homage to her with the twins in The Shining.

Damn. You ever write so much your back hurts and your eyes have gone all fishy from the hours and hours (and hours) of screen time? Writing is full contact physical, yo. #booksky

These fuckin idiots, they are OBSESSED. They have a pathology about the LGBT. (Trust me, trans is just the start of it.) The freedom party sure does want to control what people watch, what they say and how they behave. But guess what? It’s all in vain. They’re gonna fail. people.com/fcc-chair-br...

Overlooking #AVL. You can see the Biltmore if you look for it. #beautifulday

Happy to say my li'l short AFTER THE FALL (which was based upon a fab Jeffrey Thomas short story) will be a part of Crafty Short Films' Youtube channel. I've been looking for a place for this film to live, and Crafty seems perfect. They focus on excellent human stories, and I do too. Thanks, Crafty!

I just don’t know who to trust when it comes to my child’s health: their pediatrician or these garishly-bronzed, elderly pedophiles who can’t do basic math

as a trans woman, this is also how i feel

Urban Thesaurus is my fren.

Jane’s really cool. I knew her a little bit in the before times and she was a bright, serious and very ambitious talent even then.

Awright.

Iggy Pop ain’t got no fucks to give. Coachella, 2026.

A dark money group funded in the past by Peter Thiel has given nearly $9 million to a GOP-led PAC that is blanketing Virginia with mailers comparing the upcoming redistricting referendum to Jim Crow www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Articles about Jared Kushner's diplomatic role with Iran that mention Kushner has received billions from the Saudi government (2/28-4/19): NYT: 5 of 58 WashPost: 1 of 43 WSJ: 0 of 40 AP: 0 of 26 CNN Wire: 0 of 18 NY Post: 0 of 17 Chicago Tribune: 0 of 4 LA Times: 0 of 4 Boston Globe: 0 of 2

We are spending billions to keep our entire navy in the Strait to fecklessly fail to open a waterway that wasn’t closed until Trump’s pointless war of choice closed it. He’s just burning your tax money.

Ready to feel old? “Arrival” came out ten years ago.

USA! USA! USA! 🇺🇸🧨🥧⚾️

This is true. George Romero said could never watch Night of the Living Dead because all he saw were the mistakes. Hardly any writers I know read their own books. Once the creation is done, it’s on to making the next one. #booksky

And get rid of evil, predatory social media.

These people need to get a life. How obsessed can you get? Imagine living your sacred, limited life in service of taking others’ freedoms away. What a miserable way to live. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

It's hard to articulate the level of anger & rage I have about watching this happen. I first saw weev doxx people I love *TWENTY* years ago. I spoke to founders of multiple social networks about the risk of these people over 15 years ago. I wrote about it all a dozen+ years ago. They let it happen.

Bullies don’t roll over. You have to fight back. Which (trust me) they don’t like at all.

I just re-found this painting, which was in a kid's bible I had growing up. I used to obssess over it, and I'm pretty sure seeing Lucifer here was the first time I thought a man was attractive? Over the years I'd think "it couldn't possibly be as horny as I remember it", but I mean come ON

This kid (hey, he’s young) has a mighty career ahead of him. He’s young, he’s talented, and he’s a fantastic storyteller. I hate people like that.

Seen in a red area. The cult is cracking.

Eat shit, Chappelle. Don’t try to walk it back and claim both sides. He said, “I am team TERF.” He politicized it himself. He was the one who made all those terrible jokes, for years. He was the one who put Elon Musk on his stage. You can’t put the genie of hate back in the bottle. #trans

It’s important for the POPE to be CAREFUL when he speaks on matters of THEOLOGY

Extremely cool. Solidarity to my Trans siblings in peru. Trans rights are human rights.

Oh yeah, that’s right—I’ve got a horror/noir/trans novel coming out next month. Greta Tyler is a local community organizer whose best friend turns up missing. But when she goes searching for the girl, what Greta finds is weirder, wilder, and waaaay wonkier than she ever imagined. #booksky #translit

Social media’s gettin weird. So many scam accts, so many bots, so many opinions from profiles that are less than an hour old. I once hired a publicist for my 2nd book. Two weeks later, 40+ reviews showed up on my Goodreads, every one of them written by bots. 🤦‍♀️ www.wired.com/story/geese-...
