If you are on the left and trying to argue that we need to find a way to adapt to AI use, then I think you need to ask yourself what it means to be on the left. Because to me, people having clean drinking water is definitely a minimum left position. I think it should be a human position, period.

Did you know that you can listen to over 40 minutes of nonstop cyberpunk vibes, right now? DEMON GRRL does that! subvert.fm/demongrrl/rh...

This is 100% true. Please tell creatives if you love their art. (Except for me. You keep that shit on lockdown, or else 🤬.)

Oh! Before I forget! The audiobook is now available on a bunch of storefronts, including Kobo, Apple Music, Spotify, and more. Sadly no Audible, yet, but fingers crossed that'll come soon, too.

Also, enjoy the beautiful tones of Autumn's voice!

If you bought a copy of one of them from a particular store, you can often leave a review there. There are general review sites like goodreads and storygraph, which also help a bunch.

A personal request: We're starting to get 1-star ratings without any comment, and while I'm hopeful it's isolated and not something worse, it'd be great if we could push back. If you read've From The Inside or Machines of Consent (incl the audiobook) would you mind leaving a review? thx 💕

For folks early on HRT, I wanted to share this. I'm at around 3 years, 2 months in the second picture. The amount of softening/feminising of my skin in the last year and change is unreal. Left: me from a year and a half ago. Right: me from a week ago, with my hair pulled back.

I try really hard to buy my books from outlets like Kobo but wow sometimes that's just not feasible.

Of course, learning these things helps you protect yourself, too. Spotting the patterns, setting boundaries, etc will help so much.

You know, I think it's important to study how people manipulate others. And then intentionally *not do those things*.

The Emergency Trans Meal Fund slot for this week is now open. If you're a hungry trans person in need of lunch or dinner today, please fill out this form: forms.gle/KkWAvrQ27AKc... If you'd like to contribute to the fund, you may do so here: itch.io/s/159177/the...

Kink is fun. With one piece of jewellery, you can tell those in the know you're the bottomiest bottom to ever bottom... (and yes, there are multiple answers to this. feel free to respond below 😅)

Yes, don't forget to vote!

evening's dinner spin.

This is really starting to hit different industries, too. In some places it's getting a name, like Comprehension Debt (addyosmani.com/blog/compreh...). The sense that in going faster, we're also losing important components that go along with what we do. That then is more work later on.

I'm having one of those "the kids are alright" moments

Authors, post the last line of dialogue before they kiss (this one is from my WIP)

The truest truth to ever truth

Once again, thank you Mathias Grassow (RIP) for helping me focus for hours on end.

Happy Malcolm X Day! May I humbly suggest, if you haven't ever seen them, digging up some of his debates? Maybe some TV appearances where he swiftly cuts down terrible white folk logic with his sharp wit? Good stuff.

Thank you!! I've literally been saying this for 40 years! Basil absolutely hit it out of the park, and it's a shame so few people know about this one.

For all my Aussie oomfs, this survey is really important in national understanding of lgbtqia+ issues, please take the time to fill it out anonymously tinyurl.com/PrivateLives4

My heart. "Kissing with questions and no promises." Like, help? I'm in danger?

While you're waiting for my slow ass to record The Lone Wolf Cafe, here's a reminder that you can listen to my most recent audiobook here: prismata-press.itch.io/machines-of-...

If I wrote the book, it's insopherably gay.

It's good to be a trans woman It's good to feel that your body finally fits That when you walk She moves with you When you dance She dances When you smile She smiles And when you glow Oh how you glow

Where there is oppression there will always be resistance. We as humans didn’t come this far just rolling over and letting tyrants kill us. That gives me hope. Every inch of resistance counts.

Gentlest and kindest of reminders to folks suggesting variations of "just be yourself" as advice for branding - many folks already *are* being themselves, and it's sooo much the luck of the draw whether that mix of habits and style comes across well over social media. It's okay if it doesn't, too!

"Machines of Consent" by @sophiajt.com is incredible. Spicy(😉), action-packed, lesbian, trans, very queer, and with cyberpunk thrown in for fun. Two trans lesbians who don't know each other all that well find themselves in the middle of big problems and they have to rely on each other to survive.

One of my big fears with AI is around the brain damage that multiple papers are reporting on. Smoking guns like this can turn out to be just the tip of the iceberg, and in time be incredibly serious if ignored.

And we're live! To mark a new era of the artist-owned internet, I've released brand new editions of two of my albums, exclusively on @subvert.fm. New art. New music. DEMON GRRL in a way you've never heard her before: www.subvert.fm/@demongrrl/d...

With the second season of Devil May Cry coming out tomorrow, now seems like a great time to remind y'all that if you enjoy edgy angel/demon action, I have a new transbian litRPG waiting for you. buy.bookfunnel.com/jhm68t9vwl

Kara hitting the nail on the head

Currently in edits, but here's one I just touched up

This, very much some days. The struggle is very real. Even more so when sales tank and you can't help be left wondering if the algorithms have suddenly changed, or if you aren't a good author at all. But we all do need to remember that there are people who love our stories. That we all count!

Happy autumn, everyone!

I'm realising that Lo, Nuns! is so good that I'm intentionally slowing down as I read to make it last longer. Bravo @jemma.bsky.social

Last day to get the entire Fleet and Fabricant trilogy for $5! I don't plan for the books to go this low again for a while, so if you're interested, don't hesitate! itch.io/s/185287

Tris is awesome. This book is awesome.
