". . .but if I say, “Yes, we’re going down in the dose permanently, I hope,” if I say, “So far we’re doing pretty well,” if I say anything at all, we’ll be at the hospital in twenty-four hours." Swallow by @writesloud.bsky.social in @xraylitmag.bsky.social xraylitmag.com/swallow-by-h...

My book just went into a fourth print run. 😭

Just to be clear, Charlie Kirk was a racist piece of shit, Israel is committing genocide in Occupied Palestine, and trans rights are human rights, and if a million people file ARDC complaints against me or send me death threats I will never recant any of those things.

Liberals are starting to say shit like, "trans people asked for too much too fast," and I'll remind your souless asses that we actually didn't ask for anything. we were minding our own business and quietly improving our healthcare and you (cis) decided to do a pogrom against us for no reason.
