🚨Bad news. A THIRD National book banning bill has passed committee in the house.🚨 Meet the CHARLIE act that will prohibit the teaching of what they call: equity ideology (not white supremacist jingoistic history) More from @authorsabb.bsky.social when we have it. www.congress.gov/bill/119th-c...

How many of y'all buy ebooks when there is a print option and you wouldn't get the book if there were just a print option?

working on a pamphlet to introduce the press and Coarse Work to bookstores!!!

Many thanks to Yellow Arrow for including me in their latest issue on WONDER! Spaces specifically for women writers and artists are so important, and it is an honour to keep the company I do in these pages.

With an intentionally small social media presence, I need you 🫵 to keep the press in your mind 🧠 and on your lips 🫦. So, yap away 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️ homodoxy.com/support-us/

Calling all YAPPERS 🗣️ I've updated the "support us" page of Homodoxy's website to include specific ways you can help share the love—specific talking points that you might find helpful in talking to others about Homodoxy.

Oh no, I need a Pride campaign

We WOULD like to point out that The Rearview is back up and running, and you can support it with A Backward Glance or A Long Hard Stare with a Little Wink.

Spent the day so far creating a database of LGBTQ community centers with libraries. I'll reach out and ask them if they'd like to receive free copies of Homodoxy titles, prioritizing libraries in states with curriculum bans. Calling it the Kindling Project. homodoxy.com/the-kindling...

Photos coming in from the launch reading with Judy Grahn and @rozalijagrace.com!

Homodoxy is such an important project. If you are a gay person of faith, or you love someone who is, or you just had unexpected & uncomfortable feelings once while watching Pirates of the Caribbean in a hotel room with a Gideon Bible in the nightsstand drawer, please consider putting two coppers in.

Happy Spring!! Our fiscal sponsor, Fractured Atlas, is distributing $1k to 20 different projects for their annual Spring Match campaign. Every donation made to Homodoxy between today, May 4, and Friday, May 8, gets us one extra chance to receive $1k! fundraising.fracturedatlas.org/homodoxy

I have the best fans.

I loved reading this poem by @rozalijagrace.com , its un- and re-winding, its tenderness in call and response:

posts incoming at some point about the launch event we hosted on Saturday and the documentary filming with Fetzer Institute this weekend, but for now—what a beautiful weekend, and what a ray of hope that was

This Is Just To Say I have turned off the AI features that were in the update and which you were probably hoping to monetize Fuck you they were stupid so unnecessary and so annoying

Making name tags ahahahah

Right now where you live healthcare for trans kids is either being made literally illegal by your state or made functionally illegal by the unlawful threats of the federal government and a care infrastructure glad to sacrifice trans kids on the altar of appeasement. www.npr.org/2026/04/17/n...

I am thinking of teaching some online courses through Homodoxy...
