corpse flower blooming!

wow lots of people following me from (i think) the trans speculative author list...hi! i wrote a poetry collection about disorderly eating + psychiatric abuse + when one's lived realities become sites of unlimited body horror...maybe you'll "like" it?

Hot tip: If you freeze overripe bananas and blend them with heavy cream, it's like slightly healthier but still delicious icecream. It's a bit banana-y, but you can add vanilla or chocolate or maple syrup or coffee and it covers the banana flavor pretty well.

As a card-carrying 6'4" member of the Tall Girl Club, I'm ready for this one!! @littlepuss.net is having such an insane year that I'm currently three 2026 releases behind lmao 😵‍💫 time to see what's up.

"'Seven Brides for Seven Brothers' is the grandest, most delightful, most ambitious MGM technicolor musical that was ever based on the story of a mass rape."

Ceiling cat is watching. Say "hi ceiling cat" for good luck.

Alright, it's Pride and I'm pushing this thing. Trans voices are becoming increasingly curtailed, but you can still go directly to the source. go.bsky.app/VaypaqC

I cook mushrooms each week to put into my morning egg whites. I slice them and cook with 1/4 cup of water and a splash of worsteshire to cook out the water. Then I brown in oil and spinkle Vegeta on them when done. It makes weekdays simple but not sad

Shameless Self-Promo Saturday! Are you queer but not a fan of bright colors? Then I have something for you! 📚🌈💙📚

On the fence about Nameless? Well, The Transfeminine Review sure as heck enjoyed it, and I think you will too! (And don't worry--it plays using some buddy cop tropes, but *definitely* isn't a fan of policing, I promise. It's worth the wait to see how, and why. 😉) www.amazon.com/dp/B0GKGYZ2S8

Went on a fantastic bookstore crawl on Thursday to get this #pride haul! Lots of exciting recent releases :)) You should check out all these authors: @planetx.bsky.social @willowcatelyn.bsky.social @blipstress.bsky.social @susanstryker.bsky.social @samanthaallen.bsky.social

Como conservatory says they're expecting Horace to bloom again! I smelled him once, quite some time ago, not sure if I'll make the trip again 😆

48 reviews! Check it out: "I’m not one to generally write reviews, so this is a new experience for me. Nameless is one of those books that captures you, making it hard to put down as you want to see what happens next. Compelling characters across a wide spectrum of identities.

I won’t be participating in big tech propaganda, thanks

Buying more books is just shelf care.

More flowers for #bloomscrolling -- this time it's the #iris edition! 🌱

I moved up from Kansas City to Saint Paul a year ago and it just dawned on me that the summer days are longer here. I was wondering: why isn't it sunset yet???

Anecdotally this completely makes sense but it’s interesting that there is not a huge overlap in where gay men and women live in Minneapolis tho lifestyle makes a big difference in terms of how we socialize and live so I get it just wild to see it visualized

Hegemonic masculinity is usually defined as autonomy, independence, leadership---that which women are not supposed to possess nor aspire to. Gender is in and of itself an act of excluding women from humanity and agency, drawing a boundary between those who possess and those who are possessed.

Once again dominance feminism, perhaps the most derided and mocked and passionately suppressed strain within the entire vast feminist intellectual tradition, is proved to be the most useful lens to which interpret actual existing gender realtions.

Friends, did you know? 📚🌈

Got to do a pride display at work today- some are my favorite picks, some are my coworker's choices!

now that i'm shooting hormones into myself every week* i hope to finally be accepted by bluesky dot app *wegovy

30. A crow lands amongst the pigeons you're feeding and scares them away. "Sorry. Can I have a cigarette?" she asks. "Excuse me?" you say. "A cigarette? Bit desperate, but I saw you smoking earlier." You throw one to her. "Lifesaver. I owe you one." She picks it up in her beak, and hops off.

The Final Voyage of Avery Mothmere is an astonishing book. A modern version of the sorts of fantasy stories popular before it became all about “realistic” worlds

I have a book in this!

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

HAPPY PRIDE MONTH! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ Reminder that now, as our voices are being silenced, it is more important than ever to read and share queer and especially trans stories. Here's a thread of trans authors, many of them indie, sharing their writings. Please consider supporting AND READING as many as you can.

Every June is a reminder that we're firmly in the pocket of Big Vexillography

Most of my books have queer protagonists with NB characters being the most common. I wrote Avery Mothmere purposely without gender markers of any kind. As I expected, many readers seem to assign them a gender anyway. We are brought up in that gender binary thinking and it's hard to shake it off 🙃

Happy Friday! Are you as ready for the weekend as this stylish Great Blue Heron? 🪶

I am not blocking you, but that’s just because everyone is allowed to be as socially inept as I am.

Very much this. Also, your funny names for people slip past the filters we've set up. Sticking their correctly spelt name in the alt text stops us having to see or read about them.

hmm better advice than Linkedin

OK, I just finished LESSONS IN MAGiC AND DISASTER by @charliejane.bsky.social, whom I hope to see here in Chicago. It was a *tough* read because it didn't shy away from the terrible things people do to the ones they love. And yet there is forgiveness and hope. Damn, I feel wrung out. Brava.

Oh, yeah, got these books today. I'm a big fan of meter and rhyme. Started with the title poem from The Dinner Party and it read very smoothly

I also did a panoramic shot! Surprised it turned out okay.
