NEW 📗! PERSONA by Aoife Josie Clements (@ravineangel.bsky.social) In which a trans woman discovers porn of herself she has no memory of making, only to find herself led to an unimaginably deeper evil "The year's great work of literary horror." —Gretchen Felker-Martin (@scumbelievable.bsky.social)

If you wanna read (or you can listen to me read to you!) the story I wrote while rererereading a buncha Denis Johnson and wanting to write something for Taco Bell Quarterly, here ya go!

sorry not sorry but if your story doesn’t illuminate something about the human experience, imagine a new future, or explore a new perspective on the past—who tf cares this aggressive opinion is genre agnostic btw every genre has its culprits of pablum

You don't have to judge Columbus by the standards of today. His tenure as governor of Hispaniola was so horrific that he was dragged back to Spain in chains to answer for his many crimes. Plus he never set foot on any land that would ever be a part of the United States of America.

it's important for men to be gentlenessmaxxing. Brother, I hope you get absolutely softness pilled.

all discourse aside, there is one machine with consciousness. it's printers. they are alive and conscious and they hate you and they'd take your arm clean off if you let them. never trust a printer.

I’ve received multiple death threats + doxing (including my home address) directly following harassment from Turning Point USA, Jack Posobiec, Andy NGO, + Fox News which called me an antifa ‘financier.’ I have been forced to move my classes online. If journalists want to talk, DM me or reply here.

Got my first review for my new chapbook

It took me over 30 years and a significant psychotic break to figure out how to consistently write beyond a few thousand words.

I prayed to God not to rapture anyone so we'll see who he loves more :)

I'm headed to the dissociation store to stave off my deep anxiety about being openly trans in America rn anyone want anything?

The part they didn’t quote me saying was that the threat of political violence is an overwhelmingly right-wing problem. It happens of all political varieties, but it’s 50:1 a right-wing phenomenon. Left-wing political violence is far less common and usually defensive.

got that covid jab hooray for medicine

DC Comics just cancelled a series written by a trans woman for the “crime” of making a mild joke about a white nationalist’s death so they can shove this performative bullshit up their ass, actually.

I released a digital chapbook. 49 pages of queer erotic & love poetry. It's called Poems I Wrote So You'd Fuck Me and it's ten bucks: ko-fi.com/s/7679a081ae

I would like a word with whoever taught cis people that if they see a trans person who is upset about the rise of transphobia, they have to tell them they’re “valid” I’ve been out as trans for 13 years. I know I’m a man, I don’t need your personal validation, maybe protest against fascism instead?

my latest is I listen to in the hall of the mountain king while picturing violence being done to my enemies (nazis) & then I dance to Of Montreal to move my feelings thru my body.

this 1941 article where the author describes all the guests at a fancy society party and ruthlessly analyzes which of them might become Nazis and what their hook would be has unfortunately aged like a fine wine. we still know all these people
