My spouse is not on Bluesky, X, etc., so every time I send him a link or screenshot of a quote tweet &c., he gets confused, and I have to explain, “it’s like the Talmud; it’s like the Talmud”

I think it’s important to remember that it wasn’t always this way. Laura Dern is a hero to the gay community because she DID ruin her career (for a while) by playing a lesbian on Ellen. And she was a double nepo baby and Oscar nominee!
Old enough to recall the fraidy-cat Hollywood whispers about how if Actor X played a gay character it would Ruin His Career. Likewise how we wondered whether in a gay-themed project, the characters would be allowed to kiss on screen - even once!

#HeatedRivalry laid waste to that bullshit 4ever. 👋

- 46 Tolkien scholars globally
- over 280K words overall
Still tons of work to do as proofs arrive, but feels like a moment to celebrate. ☺️

Thread. This really is becoming increasingly... yeah, stark is the only word for it.
Encountering the cishet world and locked-up mindsets feels starker every year. Because so often I can’t talk about my life without being asked to explain and define everything from polyamory to pronouns, often to bewildered and bemused reactions.

With other queer people, we can just talk.
Goo morning, monsters.

The timid fearfully ask why we stomp, slither, and slime towards each other. What causes such varied and awful beings to come together and roar. But monsters don’t owe such little, shivering lives explanation. We live. Urgently. It resonates.

Bad winter storms coming around again this weekend. Remember:

-leave your taps dripping
-fill prescriptions in advance
-agonize over a social embarrassment from 10 years ago
-plug space heaters directly into the wall

“This agency, as it exists and operates, cannot continue. ICE needs to be abolished.” - @reppaultonko.bsky.social in today’s @timesunion.com

Thank you, Rep. Tonko.

Tonko: ICE has destroyed the public’s trust. It must be abolished.
ICE is not enforcing the law; it is imposing terror. Enforcement of our nation's immigration laws must be assigned to other agencies.

Reminding everyone, PLEASE, DO NOT sub to your favorite content creators through phone apps as it not only charges you more, it also takes a higher % from us AND to top it all off blocks the money from being received for 30 fucking days for some goddamned reason.

I would not be the writer I am without the support of Little Ghost books. They are a hub for the Toronto horror community and beyond. They've been there for everyone with free programming, community events, and supporting indie authors. I sincerely love them, toss the ghosts some coins if you can.
Hey friends, can I ask you all to give our @littleghostsbooks.bsky.social Crowdfundr a look? Any amount helps us with our workspace renovation plans, if you're not able (which I understand!), if you could share the link that would be amazing. Love you all! 🤗🧡 👻📚
