Movies are expensive. The Growths cost 500 out of pocket, money I'm going to be paying back for some time. It was necessary to complete grad school, but it is also a financial burden.

Please help if you can! You can also paypal me mattpniewski@ymail.com

Crowdfunding is going to launch tomorrow, and not today, because I don't want to launch while on the road.

This is the core problem with the Buttigieg "we have to find common ground" framing. The question isn't sports, it's whether trans people will be allowed to exist as trans in public. Everything else—politically and strategically—is downstream from that.

I don't write about well behaved queers.

I write about fucked up queers, sluts, trashy queers, sex workers, drug addicts, and the mentally unstable.

You write what you know, so I write my friends.

Hot take of the day

The waiting for comments on your posts & not commenting on anyone else's posts culture has got to go

I am begging you artists & non-artists alike to comment & repost artwork you enjoy. Bsky has no algorithm you're not going to get punished for reposting. Support each other

The Growths is the story of a trans woman plagued with large, painful growths that appear on her body. Growths invisible to all but herself.

But if nobody else can see the growths, how can anyone believe her pain is real?

She is a mystery she doesn't want to solve. She doesn't want to end the world. She just wants to go to the movies with her girlfriend

And she has so many names

Meet her in Beneath Strange Lights, rated 4.37🌟 on Goodreads!

Support Trans Artists. Even the gross and messy ones who write the fucked up stuff you don't like.

This story concept is legit incredible. God tier genius level, I tip my hat to you, Dani. 🌈📖📚🌈
Imagine a world where the government controls your online activity & censors what you can read & watch

Now imagine you’re a government censor searching for illicit queer fics online

You find one so good it makes you realize what you’ve been hiding from yourself all along…

Trans folks have their own art, their own culture, and their own media and every trans person contributes to that.

Honestly, I think it's beautiful.

I wrote to M&S about the stupid lingerie department story - confirms nobody offered a bra fitting to a teenage girl. The Telegraph and JK can (always) do one.

I'm still so pissed about this

The thing is, the offer of a waiver for early retirement came out literally two days before the June 6 deadline. Buried in it was the warning that if it wasn't approved, it would be processed as voluntary separation

It was all just a lie to get those on the fence
WASHINGTON (AP) - US Air Force says it will deny retirement pay to transgender service members being separated from the service.

See i don't trust anyone who DOESN'T wish I'll upon JK Rowling at this point.
First of all, I can't be killed and will never die. Second, I want to thank everyone who spoke out on my behalf over the past day. Your support and community mean so much to me <3

I caught a 24-hour suspension. The reason Bluesky gave me for this was my wishing ill on J. K. Rowling.

The Growths is a project that is very special to me. I remember @kiddocut.bsky.social describing Gender Dysphoria as being like Jeff Goldblum in the Fly and that's sorta where all of this came from initially.

I don't understand people who have limited taste. I want to watch goofy children's films like Kpop Demon Hunters and strange art films like Wavelength.

Art is wonderful, regardless of genre and its target audience.
