Imagine being on a panel about oral storytelling and making a comment afterwards about it getting a bit ‘off topic’ with the ‘political talk’. To the trans disabled co panelist.

Lost my godfather this week. Feeling adrift. Hadn’t seen him in way too long and now we’re here.
I miss him. I missed him before and I miss him even more now.

I’ve come out of stage managing retirement to work on a production of cabaret and I missed a lot of theatre stuff… and honestly, sending out emails is one of them. I wish author emails and submissions were as easy as stage managing ones.

This thread is related to ICE in the USA, but I think this also needs to apply to the 'MapleMAGA' in Canada.
Traitors, all of them. And we need to freeze them out, or we'll be facing our own ethnic cleansing squads here 😕

Disinvite them from the tailgate. Do not go to the baby shower. Call out their bullshit on Facebook. Do not just purse your lips and nod politely.
Ostracize the living shit out of them. Leave their church potluck casserole untouched. These people are extremely vulnerable to social shame.

Like this place isn’t really anywhere at all, but instead between two real places.

The best way to describe how I’m doing right now is that when my dad called me to tell me of a family member passing, he referenced how these calls will be a bit of a trend for a while.

Fantastic thread.
So let's talk about why this sucks. I am so angry and so disappointed, but I also know that a lot of people might not understand why I and my queer friends are feeling this way. Read on for an explanation 🧵(1/14)

Fantastic thread.
Every once in a while I get the itch to put the stuff I know about a certain someone with 50 alternate accounts into a doc or something.
There’s stuff that I witnessed that hasn’t really come up in the conversations about them?
None of it surprising, but potentially important elements.

I turn thirty two on Friday! Feels big, although still not the magic coming of age for hobbits number (33).
Wanna get something for a queer, disabled creator on her birthday?
Buy my trans fairytale, my space mermaid novella debut, Twice-Spent Comet!
Or ask your local library to bring it in~

I know there’s so much shit going on in the world right now.
But please don’t just say that the NYC shooting was just another CEO. It looks like the man was suffering from CTE. This is not me excusing his actions, but the NFL has spent so much money to bury CTE research and it is killing people.

I just got a random message through my website’s contact form from someone who liked a story and now an entirely mediocre day is a day I’m going to be thinking about for months 😭😭😭 If you’ve ever thought about sending a writer a note about a story… you absolutely should do that. Please do that.

Know all those sci fi films or whatever where there’s a computer virus that could destroy the world or the internet or something?
How do we make those real and feed them to AIs
It’s time and past for them to eat their own tails please.

It’s nearing the end of #mermay and what better way to celebrate than to take in some space mermaid sights?
twice spent comet is a trans fairy tale, a found family novella set on an asteroid turned prison camp.
It helped me find my wonder with words again. Maybe it could do the same for y’all.

If folks look into their own queer history, they will find themselves again and again, and also understand our complicated, beautiful and varied past. We cannot let each other’s journeys to find words that fit right divide us. We should celebrate it all, even the bits that might confuse us.
"He/him" lesbians are not new, and they're not going anywhere. There have always been he/him butches. There have always been butches on T, butches who bind. It's a total nontroversy.
