ALRIGHT! Version 1 of the fall zine is ready for ya. For your reading enjoyment, Everything Sucks! Full Zine (for digital reading) here: drive.google.com/file/d/1cYXF... Print-and-fold version coming soon, I need to test print it first and can't do that right now lol

A review found that 90% of autistic people aged over 50 in Britain are either undiagnosed or misdiagnosed, and the same is likely true in other countries. Our middle-aged & older autistic people deserve proper supports NOW after a lifetime without accommodations. www.theguardian.com/society/2025...

In the last few weeks, I made the first issue of my new puzzle zine, Puzzlebug. You can buy a printable PDF from ko-fi.com/s/9f1f1875c4 if you like puzzles.

Snail Ta dah!! Cute little fun snail to finish off #aliensSummerStamps! I even made a (crappy) time lapse! (see next post) This was a lot of fun y’all! I’ve ordered the rest of the linocut supplies so keep your eyes out for more cool stamps and prints in the future! #stampCarving

Apparently it's World Snake Day! Which is either a day to celebrate our lord and savior Jörmungandr, or it's a perfect day for me to post this adorable little garter snake (𝘛𝘩𝘢𝘮𝘯𝘰𝘱𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘪𝘳𝘵𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴) we found up in a tree while hiking a few years ago:

What we need now is a queer army* I'm excited to announce my latest Pride pins: a whole crew of queer frogs 🐸 Please share them and check out the thread below to meet the gang 🧵 canopyrobin.etsy.com/uk/listing/4... *Army is the collective noun for a group of frogs

They raised the Pride flag in front of City Hall today. 🏳️‍🌈 #Pride2025

Comic I wrote about it. It appeared in last year’s Eisner-nominated “The Out Side: Trans and Nonbinary Comics.”

My new video, "Here Be Monsters" is a deep dive on lovecraft, studio ghibli, and what it means to be branded a monster by fascist society! It's live now: youtu.be/NcvI20y1l8A 🏳️‍⚧️🐍

Thinking about @steckl.es and my Mathematical Objects podcast. Last season we chatted poetry, category theory, space-filling curves, parallelepipeds, voting & road sign regulations, we stared deep into an area the size of Wales and feasted on a universe of cake. Search wherever you get podcasts.

Last call for anyone with an interest in mathematics education in the arts - like learning #mathematics with and through textiles, theatre, technology, poetry, origami, literature, and anything else you can think of - to be a part of my new book!

Hey! It's Bandcamp Friday, the day when Bandcamp waives their fees so more of the money you spend there goes to the artist. So it's a great day to check out and possibly purchase some new music there. Including mine, if you're so inclined: willalalonde.bandcamp.com

It's good to see people waking up to what a catastrophe this administration is, but it's too bad they weren't paying enough attention last November to stop this from happening.

Hey, you know what’d be a big help? If the media would stop covering trans sports participation like it’s a new idea with no existing evidence, so we have to discuss in in terms of what various people THINK will happen. But we don’t, because there is plenty of evidence, scientific and anecdotal.

I'm sad to see 𝐶𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑛 𝑆𝑙𝑎𝑡𝑒, the sitcom starring Laverne Cox and George Wallace, canceled. It was funny and warm and it gave me hope. deadline.com/2025/04/lean...

Just a reminder that, if your regular feed is feeling all doom and gloom right now, you should scroll the #SciArt feed for a little bit to enjoy beautiful art: bsky.app/profile/did:... If your feed is not doom and gloom right now then, uhhh.. you may want to examine that

Yesterday was a gorgeous day for hiking, so we hit the Wiley Trails, where we spotted these little coltsfoot (𝘛𝘶𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘰 𝘧𝘢𝘳𝘧𝘢𝘳𝘢) flowers. They're the very first wildflowers (not growing on someone's lawn) that we've seen this year!

Are you wondering if it's worth it to go protest our fascist overlords? A new study shows CAUSAL evidence that Black Lives Matter protestors pushed Republicans and Independents (especially rural, poor, white voters) to get out and vote for Joe Biden in 2020. 🧪 skepchick.org/2025/04/stud...

It's Trans Day of Visibility, so I'm contractually obligated to post selfies today. 🏳️‍⚧️ #TDOV2025 #TransDayOfVisibility #TransJoyIsResistance

Pour les causes défendues comme pour les victimes, la prise en charge des cas de violences devrait faire partie du fonctionnement normal d’une organisation, sans qu’elle s’en trouve ébranlée. Malheureusement, ce n’est pas le cas de FURAX qui reporte son édition 2025 dont nous étions bénéficiaires. 🧵

Happy equinox! On yesterday's neighborhood walk, there was a lawn just covered with early crocuses (𝘊𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘶𝘴):

I wrote a new song about a topic that that concerns us all: pirate weasels! willalalonde.bandcamp.com/track/the-se...

Happy π Day!! 🥧

Some time ago I was pondering what to do about posting mathematical content, in particular expressions that required better rendering than in a regular post. After some extensive rumination, I decided to create a math(s)-centered blog, and said blog is now online: willalovesmath.neocities.org

So what search engine is everyone using these days?

Setting a wee ✨Math Art challenge✨ for myself starting tomorrow - here are my prompts. I would obviously looooove if anyone else wanted to join in on any of the days! Before I draw the prompt sheet up pretty, are there any glaring omissions or faux pas’s? ☺️

I don't have access to this article, but it would seem to highlight the importance of those of us who can be out of the closet doing so.

Also, hi! I don't post much here, but I 𝑎𝑚 a real person! 😂 And also I'm a ginger now:

Usually I release songs on Bandcamp, but due to the technicalities of licensing covers, I can't share it there. So instead I splattered it all over the various streaming services. If you want to check out my cover of Culture Club's "Karma Chameleon," here's a link: song.link/a/B0DWW4HNKH (2/2)

I'm trying to up my musical output for 2025 from a song or two a year up to... uhm, more than a song or two a year. To warm up, I decided to do a cover song, so I could see what I could do with some of the new toys I've acquired before getting down to recording a song I've actually written. (1/2)

we need trans stories more than ever YOU can help make it happen! @susanlbridges.bsky.social and I are writing/directing a sci-fi short film about a trans woman reconnecting with a father she never knew check out the details and FOLLOW to be notified when the campaign launches next week! 1/2

I used to love crafting weird Valentine's day cards. A-hah hahahahaha.

Bad news is overwhelming right now, by design. I'm here to help! Take a deep breath & join me as we address just one turd from the pile of shit: what's going on with RFK, Jr., and how you can fight back, either for a win or at least to annoy the shit out of the fascists skepchick.org/2025/02/lets...

19th News [Jan 19] -- New 592-page anthology, “A History of Transgender Medicine in the United States,” took its 40 editors more than a decade to compile. It documents how GAC is not experimental, not new, and not even confined to trans people. Available Feb 1. [HT @denisenorris.bsky.social]

Okay, here’s the deal: RIGHT NOW is the time for concrete, direct action. If you’re following me, it’s probably because you care about trans art and trans literature. The article below lays out my suggestions for dozens of concrete actions you can take to preemptively combat literary censorship.

Hey everybody, I'm launching a new ongoing comic series! It's an urban fantasy story called "Spell X Sword" and you can read the first 18 pages right now: spellxsword.com/comic/chapte...

Understand this: if you outlaw the million or so trans people in America, all you’ll get is a million outlaws. We will not disappear and we will not be bullied out of public life. We will fight with everything we have and until our last breath because our very identities are at stake.
