We don't see a ton of APs with older adults as major characters. I am grateful to Cai for conceptualizing a premise that centers our relationships with our elders and their relationships to each other. As someone who didn't/doesn't have close elders in my life, it means a lot to me.

Responding to a trans woman saying 'put trans women in your fiction, cowards' with 'no, I'm putting a transmasc character and their cis woman spouse and that's final' seems very very weird. You can just not respond lol.

I don't know that I ever thought I'd see a cis politician say Sylvia and Marsha's names, let alone one advocate for continuting the work they were part of. Thank you, Zohran, maybe a world that doesn't want us dead is possible?

Whew! Couldn't ask for better weather!~ My contribution for the Rune Factory 20th anniversary project with my bestest boy, Carlos from Rune Factory 3~ [ #croquisdennui / #fanart / #runefactory / #rf3 / #rf3carlos ]

god can i attest to the power of FFS and how it can improve a trans woman’s life. Please, if you can, help one of my best friends Aria. she needs this as much as i did and y’all came through for me 🙏 gofund.me/2fafddbcf

put trans women in your fiction. don’t be a fucking coward.

30 this year, here's my top 3 ones by transfem authors.

She broke 10k!

I'm really tired of everyone treating trans women as a threat to cis women

Yay go @callistokhan.bsky.social keeping GO on the chart

Anyway this book is great and the audiobook narrator is also great, and I want this series to take off so I can have the animated show that's playing in my head as I listen to this

Okay so I have a confession to make... I've owned a copy of Magica Riot by @magicariot.com for months but I'm only just now getting around to it (actually the audiobook version). And it's SO MUCH FUN. Like, I'm only a quarter of the way in but wow, this book was written for me

Do you miss Ruination ‘Rune’ Ironsworn? Do you miss GODKILLER: First Blood? This is the Intarotgation episode for you. Let’s catch up with everyone’s favorite heretic and see what kind of guidance they need… ⚔️

Lol it's happening again. In fairness to this one, it doesn't look like either the publisher or the author marketed it as 'omggg soooo SaPhPhiX!!!!' or whatever, it's just reader tagging.

How fucking embarrassing is it for the entire political establishment that they're being outflanked on the left by MICHAEL FUCKING HESSELTINE

Oslo University Hospital caught using trans patients' journals for research purposes: - Without the patients' consent to participate in research - Affecting minors - 1700 of them - Taking highly sensitive information from said journals This is a HUGE breach.

I just want them burnt down.

Teslas 🤝 Data centers Wanting to be on fire all on their own

This is actually what I specifically love about writing in Ying's Elysium: it is more properly understood as a flawed utopia in my opinion, I think I speak for basically every fan of HC that I would absolutely risk getting eaten by a god or whatever the risks are in Elysium if it meant living post-

What news on the winds? 🐉 We are so proud to share that GODKILLER: Last Hope picked up the wins for Best Actual Play Video and the festival-wide LGBTQIA+ Diversity Award at the Sydney Web Fest! It means the world that our story of rage, love, and becoming resonates across the globe. Thank you SWF!

I apologize in advance for the emotional havoc I intend to reap with this game. Thank you for a beautiful system, @moreblueberries.bsky.social! 🚪

"Hm, all these people are leaving the place with the fascists that feeds their images and posts into AI. Hmmm. I got it, we should maximize our profits by courting fascists and feeding everyone's posts into AI!" Genius thinking there, you fucking mastermind.

Bluesky head of trust and safety confirms they don’t provide any input into the moderation. Also confirms all of it is being fed into an AI… bro what the fuck.

today, on the 2-year anniversary of Israel escalating its genocide in Palestine, we'd like to remind folks that the genocide did not start on Oct. 7, 2023. the Palestinian people have been experiencing a settler-colonial occupation and genocide since the Nakba in 1948. that is 77 years too many.

kinda crazy how every single “just give people enough money to afford some basic stuff” experiments yield the exact same positive results that everyone benefits from every time, huh Anyway, back to toiling

So an anime girl with prosthetics was labeled "explicit sexual content", & then we learn that prosthetics are commonly labeled this way, & then we learn that automod has been outsourced to this ai company, & THEN we learn that the ai company might be using all our images to train ai & mods go silent

May they be sued into the ground and all genAI slop banned forever.

I love lesbians

Went through this in the 90s, when seeing yourself as a girl was considered an extreme form of homosexuality To them, at 7yo, I was "prehomosexual", they thought torture and misogyny would "correct" me they told me that I was lucky, born better than a girl and it was wrong to want to be like one

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy: www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Readers who've just finished HC are lucky tbh, they only have to wait 3 months for PE, haha.

70%!!!

As much as folks might not want to believe it, artists who sell their work cannot survive exclusively on platforms that cater to primarily other artists. The Circulating The Same Five Dollars™️ model can't feed us or pay bills for long. We need places where we can be seen and discovered.

Bree told me about her experiences, which she’s warred over saying publicly for some time. I believe them. Many of you have heard disparaging remarks about Bree from Noir. I highly suggest you rethink and reflect given this information. This is a terrible way to treat someone, let alone a friend.

This might not work cause I don't talk about my blorbos as much as I should, but I'll try anyways.

if you needed another reason to stop using spotify:

Thank you all so, so much for tuning in to our ARC INTERLUDE! It means the world to finally bring this story of grief, collapse, loss, and love to fruition after such a long hiatus. We'll be returning with our Arc 4 Premiere on October 25th, but in the meantime... Welcome home, Transplanerds. ❌

🥮 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! 🥮 The Mid-Autumn Festival, aka Zhong Qiu Jie (中秋节), gives thanks for the harvest, community, and family. We hope that everyone gets to have a warm and joyous fall sharing good food, drinks, and laughs with loved ones. Now, go tell the moon that she’s beautiful! 🌕

reposting cos I'm down to $10 & really need money for food (mice got into my pantry) + gas so I can work & pay utilities, pls share & donate if you can 🖤

I purchased from Abi's shop because every random cheapo artist glove I've ever bought has fallen apart within weeks and I'm tired of it! I like buying things that are cute and made with care and will last– it's economically sensible AND less wasteful to support individual craft. what's not to love

(I posted this earlier with the wrong image 😭) I am disabled, in pain and cannot stand up to cook, but I still need to eat this evening. All of my money just went to paying rent. If anyone could spare $50 for food and medicine it would be appreciated. 💗 ko-fi.com/therosecleric

This book was delightful, sexy and intensely exciting. Elements of noir and cyberpunk mixed into an unapologetically sapphic t4t romance. Sophia Turner makes a philosophical exploration of human nature into an action-packed thriller. You *have* to read this book.

I admire Greta's continued principled communication with media. She always puts the focus back on Palestinians. She insists that Palestinians do not need to be saved, and it is also our responsibility to do what we can to help end Israel's genocide. She's right; this is the bare minimum.

And here it is! The chapter list for The Persephone Effect, don't mind the blacked out one. Everything is fine. #gunmetalolympus

I think my most radical position is on the immigration system I don’t think we should have one. I think if you are on American soil, you’re just an American with all commensurate rights

The compiled RCBG web-serial is now available as a singular work on Itch! Lightly edited for the medium, with some side content now incorporated into the main canon, and an amazing cover by @hdthorn.bsky.social!
