I can't unsee this

This is not bringing *any* boys to the yard.

The incredible BS of needing a "Joe Rogan of the left" was that we needed to win over young men, when it's the Gen X men—like Rogan himself—who largely gave us Trump.

Also on Kate Paints... While the magic Nuln Oil was drying on the other mini, I finished up another #TableTopTime Swabbie. I'll get a full squad of them done someday. #minipainting #miniatures #nerdlings

Today on Kate Paints... My first proper Warhammer 40k mini was a Rainbow Warrior space marine. This gal takes the same color cues as... I dunno.. an auxiliary support trooper? The blue armor panels and the shoulder stripes make it match. #minipainting #miniatures #nerdlings

This is the last I'm going to say about the false and baseless accusations about my cover artist... A) @thetransfemininereview.com apologized and moved on. Everyone else needs to do the same. B) At this point, I could transport some of you to my artist to watch her draw and it wouldn't help...

Whenever I see a trans selfie, the eyes always get me. “I’m living, bitch.” You are all so fucking beautiful 🥹

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

I was gremlining around the West End and signed some copies of Countess at @littleghostsbooks.bsky.social If you want one, Mary the skeleton knows where they are on the shelf! Support your local indie horror store and your local gremlin! and your local skeleton?💀🖤

Having one of those days I wish I had the money to commission short stories from all my friends and make a rad antho out of it. One of those sorta things where we all take the same story prompt and everybody does their own magic on it and we compare wildly awesome results.

Oh hey... now we've got an Eris draw cause I very thoroughly got @theartfulmama.bsky.social to not do actual work today.

Oh hey... here's my cover artist drawing out Giulia from my book cover while she was at work today. Thanks for being epic, @theartfulmama.bsky.social and also a real person. 😜

Sadness. Nothing but sadness

So reign in your bishops that are blocking gender affirming care in hospitals. No credit until it's earned. Dinner doesnt mean shit

This is getting absurd. People are trying so hard to convince me something is AI cause they don't like it. News flash... I watched my cover artist's process. Hell, I even used em dashes in my book and *gasp* some typos!

I'll have something for the haters later. But that's a later problem.

Of all the things I braced myself to deal with by being trans and having a book out in the world, "I don't like that so it must be AI" was not on my bingo card. -_- It's factually untrue, but the poison pilled attitude makes me not even want to bother. The internet doesn't care that it's untrue.

Just because you don't like something, doesn't make it AI, Karen. You've been poison pilled by the techbro AI, you're jumping at shadows.

Look... if you don't like my book... sucks but whatever. Different strokes for different folks. But why would you start dropping lies about it? Lovely friggin thing to wake up to. -_-

It's uncomfortable for a lot of kidlit creators to contend with, but if you leave porn without defense, the censors are comin for you next THEY ALWAYS DO (and they HAVE been in this era of book bans) (defend porn like your freedom of speech depends on it) (because it does)

🥽it’s really depressing for me. It’s also kind of a relief, in a way? Like, yup these people are just utter and complete trash, it isn’t really about me

Take note, rest of the world. Make them pay people. It's the law.

One of Epstein's victims was a trans teen, but nobody paid attention because she was trans & Latina. The Post + Times of Israel even ran hit pieces on her! Epstein's lawyer claimed he wasn't gay, so Ava must have lied. He could've been stopped sooner if society listened to POC, trans folks or girls

Did I just play an Arena game where I got the W with negative health? Yes. -4749 to 2903. Cloudsteel Kirin vs a life mill that couldn't zap Cloudsteel Kirin. Shout out to Scott for putting up with me for sooooo long before scooping. @magic.wizards.com

Boss makes a dollar, I make a dime, that's why I write books on company time.

I don't use the word hero lightly but

{marketing meeting} VALVE CEO: Hmm let's see... does anyone here know who's addicted to Valve products and buys weird hardware at the drop of a hat? GAY INTERN: {quietly} Sir… I have to teach you a term right now… CEO: Is it "Six Sigma"? Because I'm way ahead of you INTERN: No, no… it's… "T4T"…

Yes !

My wife has scolding me for Too Much Posting. I shall vacate the premises and do something useful. Options are A) write B) read more Wendig C) a few hands of Magic Notice "do work while at work" is not one of them. 🤪

It's Trans Awareness Week! So increase your weekly awareness of us by reading our stories. (Our books also make great holiday gifts for your conservative relatives you'd like to never speak to you again!)

Dear Sarah McBride.... Shut the absolute fuck up, find more fucks, then shuts those new fucks up as well. You keep inviting people into this mystical tent that was us dead. That don't view us as human. You're an idiot. You cut cancer out. You destroy it. You don't have tea with it.

Behold the weighing of a baby emperor penguin.

"Magica Riot: Full Bloom" is my second queer Portland magical girl novel and a big emotional gay adventure. And it begins arriving this weekend in print & ebook formats. I'm building a trans-centric queer magical girl universe here, and I'd love for you to read it. magicariot.com/buy

I am deliriously laughing at the image of Boebert facing dawning revelation that she's actually found the pedophile elite conspiracy ring and that she's standing right in the middle of it

I've written a short story every month for about 10 years, and it made me very good at the repetitive form of beginning/middle/end. Endings are easy for me because the key to the ending is always in the beginning. Here's easy hack from a workshop talk I gave awhile back:

So.... exactly what a lot of people figured.

Look... we all need to keep an eye on the news. Being informed is good. But let's not forget to also post whimsy too. We need to breathe too.

PBS did us a solid and dropped the whole Epstein emails. www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?

Stop staning the Pope with old pics. He's the head honcho. This shit is is his.

Ok Pope, now get those same bishops to allow gender affirming care in the hospitals again. Oh that's right, I'm still an abomination to you.

This is at least the fourth story I've seen of an author having to exchange multiple emails (over 20) with this publisher to get the contract language to not be rights grabby and it's one of three where the writer walked away. I appreciate the effort and transparency but I will also say-
