What's your favourite monster/creature from literature? I'm thinking Tuunbaq from Dan Simmon's The Terror, the triffids from Wyndham's Day of the Triffids, the demon from M.R. James' Casting The Runes, Grendel, Pennywise, etc.

alice wong treated me as an equal from the moment she met me. i was a teenager with very little experience in the way of organizing; she was already a titan in this community. it didn't matter. she believed above all else that everyone, no matter how small, deserved to be treated as a future elder.

I am gutted to learn of @sfdirewolf.bsky.social (Alice Wong’s) passing. She was always a warm friend, a wonderful spirit, and someone who fostered my own growth. She helped me see that, as a #disabled person with chronic illness, I matter—I am whole. I’ll be posting some of Alice’s work. ❤️ forever
A photo of a woman in pink in a wheelchair. She has an intubation for oxygen. She looks up at the viewer. Words: This is Alice's friend Sandy Ho, posting. Per Alice's wishes, this message is being shared at the time of her passing Hi everyone, it looks like I ran out of time. I have so many dreams that I wanted to fulfill and plans to create new stories for you. There are a few in progress that might come to fruition in a few years if things work out. I did not ever imagine ! would live to this age and end up a writer, editor, activist, and more. As a kid riddled with insecurity and internalized ableism, I could not see a path forward. It was thanks to friendships and some great teachers who believed in me that I was able to fight my way out of miserable situations into a place where I finally felt comfortable in my skin. We need more stories about us and our culture. You all, we all, deserve the everything and more in such a hostile, ableist environment. Our wisdom is incisive and unflinching. I'm honored to be your ancestor and believe disabled oracles like us will light the way to the future. Don't let the bastards grind you down. I love you all. may her memory

Crocodile Temple
A digital painting of a pond in the patio of a temple, covered in green duckweed with waterlilies floating about. A young woman with dark hair ascends the stairs in the middle of the canvas, holding a basket with pink petals that are also strewn on top of the head of the crocodile in the middle of the pond with streaks of red blood curling around its imposing figure. Yet the woman seems unafraid, as though her and the animal have a connection.

When you actually think about how many issues are tied to disability you never think about, it’s intentional.

By the way, this has been the Democrats party for decades. They’ve skated by for years on this “at least we’re not republicans” bullshit, meanwhile enabling them at every turn.

This is just the time during which you can ill afford their feckless ways.

Also, if you all unconditionally support Democrats, fascism will always rise. They’re not here to stop fascism, they’re here to stop you.

The Wizard of Hy'Brasile is a great folklore adventure for RHP; incredibly well laid out with retro video game aesthetics.
The adventure has a fantastic folk horror vibe and the cycle of seasons and years is a great touch.

I’m gutted by this decision. So many excellent editors and writers impacted. My column, Disability Visibility is no more as well. Many thanks to Allegra for giving me this amazing opportunity www.teenvogue.com/contributor/...

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

Here's how to turn it off.

First go to the hamburger menu in the upper left corner
