i say this as someone with at least a mild background in cybersecurity — tiktok is now trump/fedgov spyware. you need to delete your account and app ASAP. just because the app isn‘t open doesn’t mean they won’t be harvesting your personal data to target you. queer folx get the fuck off that app

AI sits in billions of phones. Refusing to engage won't stop it, just leaves vulnerable people without knowledge. Demand ownership and control, not abstinence.

My musketeer book in unabashedly queer with a F/F relationship at the center of this epic fantasy about monsters coming out of mirrors.
On top of that though, it is very much my interrogation of gender norms. A brief thread of what I explored in this book.

Publishers are feeling the chill of the book banning movement and a second Trump presidency as literary agents note a more reserved atmosphere for publishing books with LGBTQ+ characters and themes. More: https://thehill.com/homenews/lgbtq/5679251-trump-era-lgbtq-book-bans/

Hey you. Yeah, you out there.
I hope you're finding joy today.
I know the news is kind of a hellscape and there's a lot of problems. But your joy matters. Even if it is just the peace of two deep breaths before you keep fighting.
Be kind to yourselves and each other, mkay?

@trueref.bsky.social as an aside, I super appreciate your article "How to use references" because it's the first time I've found practical "Here's how to grow this skill" that's NOT just either "draw more" or "try drawing circles."
So, thank you.
