In case you missed this, we covered this on @gimmickspod.bsky.social two years ago now, in what has become a tradition of @derekbgayle.bsky.social introducing me to an absolute banger every fall (and then my heartbreak that the series was short-lived) - check it out if you haven't already!

Happy Indigenous People's Day! I mostly focused on North America, where I'm from, and Palestine, since it's been on my mind so much lately. This is NOT the definitive list of books about indigenous characters. Follow indigenous creators and listen to their recs. And, as always, free Palestine.

I'm a huge #OMITB fan but I was so excited in particular to discuss this episode and the brilliant decisions made to tell a story focusing on Theo. I really hope you'll give this a listen.

@nicolezelniker.bsky.social I would love to be a sensitivity reader for you if you need one in the future! 😍

I am $500 from a milestone on the Help Hope Live that would help with paying for the biopsy, the consult at the U, meds, RX sunscreen & EEG! This fundraiser is scam proof because I can't even access the $ w/out a receipt & it's tax deductible! helphopelive.org/campaign/159...

@derekbgayle.bsky.social @dmuma.bsky.social The hardest thing about writing a millennial, sapphic (ace) romance novel centered around a Tru Calling-type show that aired on FOX between 2004-2005 for 1 season was knowing I had to make FOX cancel it, which made me hate them even more! 🙃🫠 😭

Love when a 2000s FOX sci-fi show with a strong brunette female lead unexpectedly brings in a former teen heartthrob from 90210 midway through season 1 to play a rougher, stubbled, complex and morally ambiguous mystery character heavily tied to the mythology before that show is cancelled in season 2

And yes, I said ... "this pandemic" because IT IS STILL HAPPENING IT HAS NOT ENDED. Biden called it "over" and that was a lie.

Hey, Autism is not a disease. While not all Autistics have food aversion, it is found in a lot of Autistic and neurodivergent folk. If you want to stick it to the people sharing and celebrating the spreading of misinformation about Autism, share stuff made by Autistic folk. Like my book:

AI. Will not. Solve. Your. Problems.

@nitatyndall.com Hi, Nita! Following you here! 🥰

Donations are tax deductible. I am in the middle of my own mini-Epstein case. I need MH care. If you have been posting about Epstein, maybe consider supporting victims in your actual lives, too. We exist. Donations to HHL are tax deductible. helphopelive.org/campaign/159...

today is the one month anniversary of mom dying ... no family has helped ... I had a little much-appreciated <3 help to get a few meals and I gave that to my niece & nephews. I've had no support and I can't meet my own needs and have to mail ashes using EXPRESS + pay for memorial costs etc.

#QueerWritersChat I write blogs about writing and editing on my website! Also poetry and short fiction. I'm also gearing up for a big launch event of my editing business in a few weeks since I'm finishing up a professional certificate! #OttersEditing storyotters.wordpress.com

Happy International Dog Day! #dogs Featuring Trinket, a globetrotting pup who has lived in both hemispheres and been on a plane for several flights for a total of over 10,000 miles.

Five years into this COVID thing, and frankly, if you take transit while sick, you are directly responsible for others getting sick and all of the fallout that might happen afterward. “It’s not COVID!” You sure? Like really sure? Because this strain doesn’t show positive until day 4-6.

I genuinely cannot think of anything more legally nightmarish for the performers, artists, and writers of screen media. The hope is clearly to never pay another actor ever again and just use their likenesses without accountability.

"AI isn't coming for your job, but someone who's better at using AI for your job might be coming for it" was meant to be an uplifting response in a company-wide meeting today, if you want to know how things are going for creatives in the corporate world

JULY HOUSING UPDATE: A lot has happened in the two months since I last updated our homelessness fundraiser, but I felt you deserved a check in. I don’t really have much positive to report except sticking to my deadlines despite… everything. I’m doing my best. gofund.me/f79eaf5b 1/2

Every week someone tells me they had to put Covid aside to focus on bigger issues like fascism. The thing is, eugenics and fascism go hand in hand. Historically pandemics have ignited fascism & normalized eugenics & indifference

It’s Disability Pride Month! Many of you have been disabled by one or multiple covid infections and don’t know it yet. Many others are aware, though, and have been sounding the alarm for years. Stop disabling your communities by breathing all over everyone. WEAR A MASK!

I will be teaching this WRITING DISABLED CHARACTERS IN FICTION workshop online through Women on Writing for six weeks starting July 15th! All disabled writers welcome! Sign up below! #DisabilitySky #AmWriting #Teaching #BookSky #WritingCommunity www.wow-womenonwriting.com/classroom/La...

Imagine being this level of asshole because you assume that freelancing isn't actual work. Despite being an absolute boss in my field, I'm apparently "lazy" because I guess art isn't "real" work. What a douche nozzle. Some people need better reading comprehension skills.

Nothing will improve until we’re willing to face COVID head on. That means admitting that “back to normal” isn’t working. That adaptation is necessary for survival. That clean air, paid time off, respirators and vaccines are all needed to drive transmission down and save lives.

This. Before Covid, and again now (Covid still exists and ys still disabling people) Disabled folks fought for more remote jobs, school and healthcare. Soon as it was needed for everyone they implemented immediately. Then took it away after they forced most back. Exceptions do remain as before.

The latest Covid variant (razor blade throat) seems to have increased transmissibility resulting in more people ending up in hospital. Most healthcare systems haven’t adopted clean air standards or mandatory respirator use. Hospital acquired COVID has a 10% fatality rate My guide to avoiding it

I've had a tough time recovering from a severe case of COVID, am still symptomatic, and have been unable to work. I'm already disabled and this has been scary. I need community help to recover and am very grateful for all support, including sharing. www.gofundme.com/f/support-tr...

I have a new update to our ongoing housing/life fundraiser. I am losing the last lifeline I had to my ability to maintain a productive life and work towards a better future. I have no hope left. gofund.me/f79eaf5b Update text continued in thread and in full at the link.

#DisabilitySky by all please please use and cite individual scholars (including queer, disabled, scholars of color) directly in your teaching and scholarship — but don’t use the Disability Studies Reader (it’s unethical in its current form).

So grateful to @derekbgayle.bsky.social & @dmuma.bsky.social for inviting me to come on @gimmickspod.bsky.social and talk about my Alex Mack experience, friendship with Larisa, how Tommy became my mentor, and more! And I talked about Tru Calling, too! 🥰🎬📝🍒

@mortuaryreport.bsky.social It was so fun to be on a panel with you! 💜

@mortuaryreport.bsky.social I remember you’re a mortician from Twitter and Instagram. I didn’t explain this well, but Tru Calling is basically about a woman who works in a morgue and relives days (a la Groundhog Day) and the autistic-coded character is her boss, so he’s a mortician.

@cknightwrites.bsky.social I got your book and the goodies! Thank you for sending it to me! Can’t wait to read it! Will take a few pics and share! I’m so excited! Congratulations! 🥳
