indigenous peoples day.

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Coffee run in Salem. #ootd #goth

Michigan Avenue right now.

Haul from the $3 book sale at the Salem Athenaeum last month. I’ve been checking out “The Origin of Satan” from our local library for years as a reference and I am so excited to finally have a copy of my own. And if you want, I’ll show you some of the fine ~figures~ in that drawing book…

Whoa, hello. I’m back here on Bluesky again after stepping into the center of a curiously perfect ring of mushrooms during one of my brooding wanders across the misty moors. How long has it been?

if you let them decide what trans people can and cannot do with their own bodies, you're giving them permission to decide what you can and cannot do with yours next.

At @standupforscience.bsky.social and the signs are statistically significantly excellent

We brought Bad!Queer!Rep ala Gladiator II to the goth toga party last night. (He/him all around) @lewdalfred.bsky.social

“Dream of me. Only me.” #Nosferatu

Gang, at this point I’m too disillusioned to expect all of you to mask always (even though you should), but for the love of GOD, please at least mask at airports and on planes when you travel to events!!!

I didn’t exactly intend to replace academic pursuits with aggressive amounts of D&D but I did just read someone having a BA in History as a Bonus Action in History so I think it’s happening regardless & tbh I welcome the change

A bunch of little Love Witch themed sticker designs that I made for Valentines day last year. I realize I should have shared them last week! These stickers are all available in my shop.

if you see this post a knight ⚔️🍄

Don’t buy stuff on February 28. Money’s the only thing these dicks understand. #resist

Happy Valentine’s Day from your local, demon-possessed lounge lizard. Every-so-often, I creep down to Boston to sing. See you tonight at Poetry Brothel! I’ll be crooning again for all you lovers in Cambridge and keeping it extra sleazy.

Goodnight. I hope you have sweet dreams of hot Dracula

as a medievalist, as a church historian, let me say that within the long history of Christianity, I cannot emphasize enough how actually normal this is. this is Constantine, Charlemagne, Frederick Barbarossa, Louis IX, even Henry VIII! this is still Christianity, as empire-hungry as it is.

Our turn DC

Oops, the link didn't link, here's my lil' shop of Gothy, Steampunky, Vintage, Retro-Fantastic goodies that helps keep the lights on, thank you for your time and consideration! torchandarrow.etsy.com (Signed copies of my books also available!) (Plus a very cool 4th Doctor scarf lanyard!) 🖤

It's cute of Dem congresspeople to tell us that, unlike us, they simply can't afford to get arrested by police

Google is guzzling the fascist Kool-Aid and empowering this administration. The Gulf of Mexico is listed as the Gulf of America” on Maps, here are some alternatives:

hoping to get this circulating again. donations and shares greatly appreciated (even if you’ve shared it before)! also, it doesn’t have to be this fundraiser but resourcing trans people directly is the best way to support us right now. and we do need your support. www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-tra...

If you see this, post your pride flags! Hi, I’m a gay trans man (he/him). Thoroughly Achillean, as in: Only other men get my heart racing. Love the word “transsexual” for myself! Do not love being referred to as “transmasc” or “transmasculine”. 🧵 For more details~

I'm not going to engage anyone directly, I am too tired and cranky for that. But a thing about "liberals and leftists must learn to work together to defeat the right"... Any liberal who will sacrifice any of us is "the right" and must be defeated.

As the expected Christian Nationalism EO came in, I’m seeing a bunch of “this isn’t real Christianity” noise in my mentions. Nope. Christian friends. 1/x 🧵 This is 💯 part of the history of Christianity, dating to Constantine, to the Holy Roman Empire, forced conversions, Inquisitions, +

“Do not bend your neck for that which cuts necks.” A Sumerian proverb, as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago.

"complying in advance" includes saying "i'm against trumpism but i agree with keeping trans people out sports"

You know what you can do? Get a prescription for estrogen or testosterone and then hoard that shit for trans people in your life.

Fellow trans people, LGBTQ+ historian here. We have a future and you are making trans history as we speak. The next generations will want to know all about you - Yes, /you/. - and how you feel in this chapter of the 21st century; whatever it holds. Consider this for me… (cont)

In all seriousness, machismo remains a major problem on the left. It's why the majority of mutual aid and community care work is still organized by women.

I would like our media to become permanently hyperfixated on Marco Rubio’s recent negotiations to put immigrants and US citizens in El Salvadorian prisons.

if you ask me where are overdue.

Breaking news: State attorneys general from California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Hawaii, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Nevada, Vermont, and Wisconsin advise Trump's EO banning trans care is unlawful, hospitals should provide care. Big counter salvo!

I am so tired of these billionaire boys and their grubby little hands grabbing at everything. Elon Musk, hands off our democracy. youtube.com/shorts/pIyG7...

Inaugural art v. artist post 😌🫀

Lady Gaga and Chappell Roan have officially spoken out more against the plight of trans ppl than all the Dems in congress have combined.

“We saw you from across the mortuary and we loved your vibe.” Attended my (he/him) first GASH with @lewdalfred.bsky.social (he/him) and loved every twisted, slippery minute of it. Cheers to Throb Zombie and Co.; what a show. Vampires v. Werewolves is just what I needed to kick off the apocalypse.

The OGA Tea Guild has re-opened. This month we are celebrating trans joy with some bonus goodies from Selby Burke and Sweater Muppet! The tea blend is a fruity shimmering herbal in the colors of the trans flag. All tiers are now open! www.Patreon.com/oldgrowthalchemy

Good morning from Salem.

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.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies: “What a weird thing to say” “Do you hear yourself right now?” “You shouldn’t say shit like that to people” “I won’t let you talk to them that way” “That’s a disgusting opinion to have” “Shut the fuck up, dude”

letting it get here because you worried about fairness in field hockey is despicable; letting it continue because you read NYT op-eds is monstrous. if you're cis & not all-in to stand for trans kids, i don't know what else you want. what you'll get is dead kids. please fight with us. 🏳️‍⚧️💜
