Round and Round (2023) This is one of the best Christmas (though it's actually Hanukkah) movies I've ever watched. It's charming, emotional, funny, and fun. Watch it! I loved it.

I was so lucky to have really fantastic sex ed from a great teacher in grade 4. But talking to my niece and friends with kids, they don't get any sex ed these days. So Scarleteen is important!

The incredible, indomitable, inspirational Alice Wong has left us. I'm so grateful to have known her on social media, and so grateful for all the words she shared with us and all the actions she encouraged us into making. May we live up to her example. (so you don't have to go to Instagram)

web.archive.org/web/20241122... Alice Wong's Teen Vogue articles were archived before their removal, for anyone looking.

This is one of the most recent things Alice did. It was, as ever, a clear, trenchant, messy, and powerful exploration of not just her own experiences but also society's expectations around disability.

Robyn's new song is good. If I was at Thought Bubble this weekend, I'd want to hear this at the midcon party. youtu.be/vitil9qMN6A?...

Christmas Above the Clouds (2025) A retelling of A Christmas Carol, predictable and over the top. But because of the story there's plenty of Christmas magic, even if it's kinda dumb. However. Tyler Hynes. King of the Horny Kiss. So horny. A national treasure.

Merry Christmas, Ted Cooper! (2025) This was incredibly charming. It gets better as it goes along and the characters have real, meaningful conversations about their feelings and miscommunications. It's also funny and sweet. And holy hell the kiss is horny. 🎄🎄🎄🎄/5

Every year I watch a lot of Christmas movies. I'm watching fewer this year, because I've been busy. But I'll make a thread of all the good ones if you want some recommendations. Christmas! 🎄☃️🎅

Less than 1k and 13 hours to go!!! Help us make this book a reality!!!

Had a dream Bang Chan from Stray Kids was flirting with me and then we kissed and he invited me back to his room but when we got there I spent the whole time asking him if he got breaks and if he was getting enough rest. Even in my dreams I am stressed about the well-being of artists. Lol

I designed this t-shirt. You should get this t-shirt. nerdykeppie.com/products/bad... All proceeds go to my friend’s transition! ☺️☺️☺️🙏💖

Yet more Xena x Callisto from my patreon.com/laurenknight i may be obsessed 🫣

Out today! Chrissy may be biased, but she is not wrong. It's very good. Go pick it up!

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:

Our accountant double checked that my purchases at Lezhin were indeed business expenses. Excuse me! I work in comics! It is very important that I read lots of comics! Even ones where a wolf hybrid is knotting his adopted gangster father!

Found two lion's mane mushrooms today. Mushrooms have felt very hard to find in Ontario this season. Too dry? Maybe. But it always feels cool to find one of these fun guys.

Good morning, chums! I know I missed it last week, but it’s once again Saturday, meaning my DMs are open all weekend for any new (or existing, if you fancy) comics creators looking for feedback or advice on writing, art or the industry at large! Please share, you never know who may want it

Happy Halloween from my cat, Eddie the Pumpkin.

Order this series. It's going to be very good...I almost said it's going to be a very good time, and like, it's not, it's gonna be heart wrenching and traumatic but also really beautiful? And there are also laughs? It's a very rewarding series to get into.

I think one of my biggest regrets as I get older is that I wasn't sluttier in my youth. And I was REALLY slutty. But like, I could've done more.

This is hard, because I listen to music as moods and vibes, rather than artists. But, I'll give it a try. Define your music taste in eight artists: The Cure Stray Kids Yousuke Yukimatsu Kenshi Yonezu Bad Bunny Mariah Carey (Christmas edition) Enya Janet Jackson

I just backed WITCHING SEASON: A Witch Horror Comic Anthology. Looks extremely good! www.kickstarter.com/projects/phi...

Caspar always coming up with dope ways to interpret Kieron's script. Seeing new pages from him is a DELIGHT.

I know this thread is about 75% Balming Tiger, but they just keep making good tunes! This latest release with Yaeji! 😍 The video is absolutely adorable, too. I cried. www.youtube.com/watch?v=MZqk...

If you're going to Thought Bubble next month, a) I'm jealous! And b) take advantage of the portfolio reviews with some mega talented artists: www.thoughtbubblefestival.com/portfoliorev...

I love industry transparency like this. I did something similar for my publishing company and my sex work. It's just fascinating to see how it all shakes out. p.s. Please pay comic artists more.

The documentary I made with Miss Major 10 years ago is on Vimeo on Demand. If you want to spend some time with her on screen tonight and learn some abolitionist trans history while you're at it, it's free to rent with the code "shinebright" vimeo.com/ondemand/major

Yesterday at Thanksgiving dinner one of my aunt's asked, "why don't you like police?" I was like, how long do you have? But then gave her my short answer about poverty and funding allocation and how cops don't work, etc. And she seemed to genuinely be like, huh, never thought about it like that.

My 13-year-old niece told me that hanging out with me was the first time she'd ever heard someone use the "c-word" out loud. Thanks a lot, Scotland, you bunch of cunts.

CANADIANS!! The official petition started by a member of Parliament to fight back against payment processors' censorship of legal content is only open for a few more days. Make sure you've signed it: www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

J. Draper has an incredible YouTube channel about London history and recently did a video about how the UK beat the fascists in the 1970s and it's really good. youtu.be/XeHviTKEqSo?...

Chloe is a dream to work with. She was giving me things before I even asked for them and her art is thoughtful, intentional, and HOT. I hope she takes over comics. 💖

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

The Salvagers trilogy is one of my all-time favourite sci fi series. The characters became people I would think about in the same way I think of dear friends. It's fantastic and this price is a STEAL. BUY IT.

This book is extremely good. If you like sci fi with science that works, but character driven, read EDGES. (And then there's more books in the series waiting for you when you're done!)

Final Days to fill out the survey! Help them understand comic creators work/finances & help grow their case for supporting comics. DO IT ASAP! Please! (UK based creators only)

Here is a direct link for this consultation. It only took me about five minutes. Please take the time to answer. hampstead-heath-bathing-ponds.commonplace.is

The Hampstead ponds have REPEATEDLY voted to include trans women. But the officious pricks at Sex Matters don’t care what other women think and are forcing a public consultation anyway. Throw the ponds some support.

Oh no! Time to spend all my money! 😍😭😍

Today was my birthday and I went canoeing and then swam in a waterfall. It was perfect.

Bluesky is my favourite social media platform because my family isn't on here so I can just make my little jokes and share stuff I think is cool without wondering if my dad is gonna ask me what yaoi is next time I see him.

Yesterday I was doing a little think about "what's the worst, most horrific, most unhinged yaoi storyline I could come up with?" And hoooo boy, my brain took it SERIOUS. *Opens a new MS Word doc*

I have been really into listening to dj sets while I work lately. Usually it's Yousuke Yukimatsu, but I randomly came across ackerlady and this set she did from a labour protest camp in Laos playing Isan psych and molam. It's great. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sh8k...

Just pre-ordered this book because Luke is one of the best writers I've read in a long time. Also, subscribe to his newsletter, Welcome to Hell World.

What movie do you consider "perfect"?

I just read my first purchase on @neonichiban.bsky.social beta (23:45 by Ohana) and it is NICE to read DIGITAL comics, pals. I hope that in the future I can sort my collection. And that the yaoi tag works better. Not that that was the first thing I checked or anything.

I am really unsure how to exist with the dissonance of watching a country experience authoritarian fascism and then selling comic books in that country. I keep thinking about Ursula K Le Guin a lot to help, but also my brain is constantly wide-eyed and screaming WHAT THE FUCK.

If someone I knew said something even slightly transphobic to me, I'd ask them what they meant by that, and if the answer doesn't show curiousity or a willingness to learn and fix their fucking heart, they will be excised from my life.
