Once more I am boosting my pre-order links, a share would be appreciated! Also check out my book if you wanna read a gory, bloody, revenge fantasy. also it’s gay

yo you should read my books, if The Locked Tomb is a goth girl they're her punk friend who reeks of tobacco www.simonandschuster.com/series/The-E...

So just weeks after getting rid of its only trans reporter (me), PinkNews commissions an op-ed from Wes Streeting. Good grief...

this could be the subject of a dissertation

NEW: A @wired.com investigation based on DHS records ID’d the paramilitary Border Patrol units involved in high-profile violent confrontations with civilians during Midway Blitz—and much more. @awinston.bsky.social & @regret.bsky.social w/ the scoop www.wired.com/story/border...

could a depressed person make THIS?

Me: hmm, should I post about my new novel? It's TDOV and I don't want to detract from that. But it is about being a trans and queer teen in 2026, and like-- SCOTUS: conversion therapy is protected speech

Peddling my wares in honour of Trans Day of Visibility 🏳️‍⚧️ I’m the first trans man to ever win a Bram Stoker Award in Long Fiction for work mentioned here (Coup de Grâce). I’d love if you’d give it a read.

@itch.io is back on their deindexing bullshit. If you want to read one of the cutest pieces of trans TG/TF fluff to come out of 2026 so far, check out @querelle.ily.li's latest! #tdov

I feel guilty having a birthday on Trans Day of Visibility. Anyway, please buy books by @horrorsong.blog and @mommywiseau.bsky.social and other trans authors

Happy Trans Day of Having a Nice Snack! Fill this out and post/send it anywhere you like (if you're trans), and don't forget to buy a snack for someone else if you can (that's for everyone). Sending love today and every day — we WILL win and we WILL have treats along the way. xoxoxo.

Hey. Thank you so much for this. I’m a trans guy who’s been raising money to help my friend afford to move out of an abusive living situation. www.gofundme.com/f/help-may-m...

I’m Saoirse Stone, and I’m a trans teacher and writer who is trying to escape Florida for a safer state! gofund.me/7fe9b3944

It's Trans Day of Visibility today. If you're trans and are raising money for something (I don't care what it is), reply to this thread and I will boost you. If you are a cis person, take a look and find someone to support if you can. Everyone give this a share after.

My friend Hailey could still very much use some support: bsky.app/profile/tran...

Just finished this today and it's SO GOOD. Kinda shocked I haven't heard more horror friends talking it up? It's got everything -- queer women in the weird woods, haunted houses, generational trauma, shapeshifting, cannibalism. Like, what more could you want from a book?

THE FRUMPKIN IS OUT OF THE BAG! I wrote a @criticalrole.bsky.social book, you guys!! It has fistfights and smooching and disaster gays and dark academia and spooky archeology and political intrigue, and I am terrified and excited for you all to read it!! www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/760755...

As of today, I don't know any trans person in KS who received direct help from a relocation org. If you are such a person, I would appreciate hearing from you. Lots of trans people in KS who are in need and/or trying to leave, rely on mutual aid and QT orgs operating in KS. List below.

the 2 best new books I’ve read in 2026 so far have been brilliant unpublished MSes by trans writers; I can’t yell abt one but I can yell abt the other! This novel is a masterpiece—a reckoning w truth & art & memory, an archaeology of the c20 & its echoing violences. we’re v lucky to be getting it.

My dear former student Aphid is fundraising to leave Kansas and move to Colorado. He is a 100% real trans person in Kansas, I personally know him and vouch for him. You can make an immediate big difference in someone's life this way!! Please spread the word & contribute if you can!

Had a cathartic lil chat with @jessicawluther.com and @reveleth.com for @burnitalldownpod.com about the IOC policy implementing sex testing for every single athlete in the women’s category 🫠

I have had an incredible Wondercon! It has been amazing to meet so many wonderful people! Also Someone slipped something into my drink tonight and I am currently in the hospital about it

Happy 58th birthday to Lucy Lawless, who has always understood the assignment.

Traditional publishing isn't a meritocracy in the slightest. A book being "good" doesn't translate to sales or promotion.

re-upping this thread after Pope Leo’s comments on God rejecting the prayers of leaders who wage war, for a little theological history background on Christianity and warmongering:

I think we need to celebrate the death of Sora a bit more. This is a technology that, just MONTHS AGO, we were being told was going to literally destroy Hollywood and Disney was going to give them a BILLION DOLLARS and NONE OF THAT EVEN REMOTELY HAPPENED

Always been laughable to me how some will say universal basic income will never work but universal basic poverty is apparently cool.
