The impulse to say that erotica CAN'T say anything of value, that porn MUST be mindless indulgence, is an extension of this problem by the way. Sex and kink are just parts of life. Art that explores both primarily can touch on other subjects meaningfully as well. Stop trying to silo everything.

The harsh crackdown on anyone who doesn't properly mourn Charlie Kirk and pretend he was a good guy is polarizing me more and more in the opposite direction. He was a vile, hateful little man who wanted people like me lynched. The more you scream at me for pointing that out, the more I'll say it.

Not going to screenshot but JKR is dishing out hugs to people who've changed their profile pic to "I Am Charlie Kirk" and is quoting bits of Mein Kampf to make her point about how we should be crying over dead nazis. Seriously.

There are people dedicated to our extermination, in their own words, and we don't owe them anything.

imagine a world where cis (enter sexuality) porn creators arent afraid of trans women’s dicks. we all see you. you wanna claim “trans ally” yet not a trans woman in sight. the fact is yall dont see us as women, you see us as male socialized or whatever your feeble mind’s narrative creates.

respectability politics will see us all killed

Hello it’s me Sam Altman I have a zillion dollar idea it’s a chat bot that tells teenagers to kill themselves and you can generate csam with it and it poisons the air and water and it’s wrong most of the time and we’re going to put it in your refrigerator and stuff 👍 I need more money for this btw

Victim blaming fellow Trans People for “shifting to focusing on “validity” instead of material needs” In the middle of the country that is actively trying to take as much healthcare as it can and makes sure that queer people can’t access it culturally or medically is Fed Shit

seeing stuff like this and then going on tiktok and seeing younger users who doesn't know any better celebrate it all due to "gooning bad" really makes me feel sad above all else

The trans panic is maddening, because trans people are expected to defend ourselves with logic science and any sign of emotion is a failure. And yet the anti-trans campaign is nothing but appeals to emotion unburdened by facts, precedent, or empathy.

porn prevented this app from becoming an nft trading hellhole like it was initially envisioned by jack dorsey. i'd rather it becomes the biggest safe space for sex workers on the internet

"i'm afraid to start HRT because it might be taken away" they've already taken it away from you by making you afraid they will make the appointment

Create NSFW art Porn is not evil, sex is not abhorrent, pleasure is not a crime Even if you don't agree with all kinks doesn't mean they should be allowed to censor art This is why we have tags and the blick button, not megacorps deciding what we can and cannot like Always resist oppression

Seems if I'm not writing about a creature these days, I'm writing about a robot.

with the way the government is targeting us and the democrats are abandoning us, im starting to wonder if the most important thing in picking a place to move isnt just maximizing the number of trans people im near

It's only an addiction if you allow yourself to be deluded into thinking that wanting to fuck is a mental illness.

there are queer people with weird fetishes and queer people who will call the cops to destroy several peoples homes and possessions because theyre uncomfortable with the unhoused. and guess which type we ostracize most agressively

What's a poster you had up in your room growing up?

I just want 'ai' to go away. The simultaneous widespread poisoning of knowledge; attempt to end-run professions that cultivate critical thinking; and sucking the joy out of everything while ramming unwanted technology down our throats is so exhausting. I just can't anymore.

"Hyaena", the sixth studio album by #SiouxsieAndTheBanshees was released on this day, 41 years ago. It is the only Banshees studio album that features #RobertSmith of #TheCure on guitars and keyboards.

Writing a good beginning seems to be my one terminal weakness, haha.

Side project has derailed quite a bit into a larger amorphous amount of stuff in the same world. I'd really like to consciously choose NOT to let this mean HMV gets shelved--being auDHD and trying to get out there as an author is a silly time!

You’re not gender critical. You’re a bigot.

Spare us the fake outrage.

I think one of the funniest things about the bloodthirsty monsters who support Israel is their attribution of antisemitism to the pro Palestine movement, but these monsters are so nakedly racist, why the fuck would they give a shit about antisemitism?

Remember that when an author is actively using their money to attack other there is no "separating the art from the artist" If you purchase or promote HP stuff you're supporting this. You're telling your trans friends your enjoyment of a shitty wizard franchise is more important than their rights.

Non-binary includes people who are masc-presenting, folks. So don't be so fucking shocked when someone who could pass as a cis man turns up to your "women and non-binary" events. Non-binary doesn't equal woman-lite.

A little late to the party, but what a cool project! Finding older queer speculative fiction is always a good reminder that we’ve been here for a long, long time dreaming about queer possibilities and futures.

I think we need "the good the bad and the ugly" of queer stories because that's the real representation when all kinds of shit have space to exist. Because that's how it is with cishet stories. Perfectly "wholesome" and polished "queer rep" is in fact an artificial vitrine, not real culture.

I try to think about this when I'm clumsily practicing my bass or when I think about how badly panned my writing was when I took it for workshopping. ☺️

the anti porn crusade is just sparkling paternalistic misogyny, even when it wears a pink pussy hat and calls itself radical.

Be selfish in your writing. Be selfish in your reading. Do it for you.

Take the fictional character quiz and post the first four you know: openpsychometrics.org/tests/charac... I am very flattered with how this turned out!

#Cyberpunk2077 sequel will reportedly feature a new playable city 🌃 "Night City is still there ... [and the other city] ... it doesn't feel like Blade Runner, it's more like Chicago gone wrong"

"I'm working on multiple creative projects" is just a fancy way of me saying "I have multiple creative projects minimized in the background so I don't feel guilty about having not touched them in weeks while I work on this shiny new one"

Hoping to work on Velvet Veil (side project) a bit at my folks' but it'll likely depend on how efficiently I can copy out these notes from my MA thesis books, grr...

happy birthday (1986) to a great album. red rain remains one of my favorite gabriel songs

good morning 🖤

Mister Maturin I do not care for your sponges or starfish, and I must state that with you aboard we have quite our fill of nautical nonsense already
