you’re a good person. you pick up the salamander. you eat the salamander whole. you let it slither, wet and grateful, down your welcoming throat.

"Rozz was a very young gay man singing about blood, loneliness, guilt and death at the start of “Gay Cancer” aka the AIDS crisis." To mark the anniversary of his death I updated the essay I wrote about Rozz Williams and Christian Death for @marchxness.bsky.social's March Vladness contest.

I fucking love going up to a governor and being like "hey i'm about to take a misdemeanor dump, what are you going to do about it"

trans day of fucking off into nature

In 2024 I wrote CUCKOO, a novel about how Americans hate their gay and trans children so much they'd rather kill them than let them exist. Here we are in the middle of another grotesque demonstration of the depth of that hatred.

oh shit did someone say trans day of support my patreon

Trans day of nothing to lose but our chains and a world to win Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

now that I'm visible, feel free to buy me lunch. I don't eat pizza anymore, but I could wreck some veg ho fun. cash.app/$naprecipient

conversion therapy being made legal with the assent of democratic justices on trans day of visibility is pretty funny though. like wow glad this whole visibility thing worked! glad we're living in a new progressive liberal minded age!!

I wouldn't turn down a pizza

Happy TDoV! I'm a trans woman, married to another trans woman and trying to be less cynical about things like trans holidays which can seem like somebody else's party. Twelve years ago while on a book tour for my first book I read a tumblr post and started coming out to people as trans via sms.

very much enjoying this new Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't series youtu.be/C-83-YPYSKA

Eating the spicy thingies and enjoying my new couple of books by @traumbooks.bsky.social , happy Trans Visibility Day!! ♥️♥️♥️

for trans day of visibility my two requests are that you should listen to our dragon age podcast @codexentries.com (we just started our second season last month, perfect time to follow!) AND post on forums.goblinmode.com. and give every trans person a million dollars. so, technically 3 requests

some people were named "Tiddy" in the 1850: this was considered normal at the time.

Goddamn at least the Wannsee Conference was held in secret. Israeli leadership are doing champagne toasts on camera about their human liquidation plan. Disgusting death cultists.

Please help my friend Roshan if you can <3

Heyo i'm entirely freelance and have been sidelined by long covid for the past month. I set up a Ko-fi if anyone wants to send me a tip so I can keep up with bills while I'm healing, it is appreciated ko-fi.com/roshanabraham

I'm only a hundred pages or so in, but if any of you are looking for other Jewish Trans Fiction of Unstable Narrative I cannot recommend The Most Famous Short Film of All Time by Tucker Lieberman enough.

@tuckerlieberman.com Thank you for the wonderful reviews! I've been picking my way through The Most Famous Short Film of All Time and it has been a great companion for my speculirium.

Tucker Lieberman reviews Black Hole Science are Filled with Apologies and makes me feel very ~seen~. Thank you Tucker for all the kind, insightful words! I love your reviews <3

This is what i look like when I'm birding (The phone in my mouth is running Merlin, the bird sound identification app (Its in my mouth so my hands will be free to use camera or binoculars.).).

Personally, I think it's important that children be taught about all the early Saddle Creek bands. Not just Cursive, but Bright Eyes, The Faint, Rilo Kiley, and even The Good Life. Hear hear!
