Happy Birth Day to this labour of blood and pain! #ChoicesAnthology edited by @diannalgunn.bsky.social is available now.

Come scream with us.

The foreword by @alexwoodroe.com consistently makes me tear up

I hope these stories speak to you, soothe you, enrage you, and sit with you in the dark 💜

I love staring out wondering who is staring back 🔭
The night sky. Stars in a blue gradient that lightens as it nears the trees at the bottom of the frame. A hazard of stargazing with a near-full moon.

‪I'd hoped this collection might be less relevant by the time it was published rather than more, but alas.

Pre-order #ChoicesAnthology and feel less alone in the battle for control over your OWN GODDAMN UTERUS.

More info at www.ahdavison.com
White text on black: One of my short stories is featured in Choices: An Anthology of Reproductive Horror! Each author included in this collection has dug deep within themselves to share these incredibly personal — and sometimes visceral — stories that explore the horror of having one’s bodily autonomy stripped away. Here’s a little bit from Dianna Gunn on how this collection of stories came to be: When Roe V Wade was repealed, I felt the terror and anguish of not just my friends in the US, but of every uterus owner who wanted to control their future, their destiny. The concept for Choices was born that same day. I wanted to provide space for the collective scream all of us carry with us every day, knowing that no matter where we are in the world, the enemy will set their sights on our reproductive rights eventually. That we are never truly safe, that we can never truly know who in our friend groups, our families, will fight for our rights–and who will vote for the people who take them away. I hope one day this collection will not feel relevant and necessary, that it will be a glimpse into an archaic past. Until that day, I hope this anthology can provide you with an outlet for that collective scream and a reminder that we will never stop fighting to control our own bodies.

My story in the #ChoicesAnthology asks, Whose Pussy is This?

The answer should be obvious and unchanging, but for some reason this is a debate.

Being this cute is exhausting
#catnap #blackcats
Nala, a black cat with green eyes, exists adorably with her arms outstretched and belly up Nala, a black cat with green eyes, exists adorably with her paws around her face Nala, a black cat with green eyes looks sleepily at the camera Nala, a black cat with green eyes, falls asleep in a ridiculous half-donut position with her limbs stretched out

Nala would like to know why the pets have stopped and where they went. She demands you bring them back at once
#blackcats
A black cat with greenish eyes glares at the owner of the lap in which she lies. She is very cute and very angry.

One thing that would improve #Bluesky like 1,000% for me would be some way to use my discord emojis here.

My expression is being severely limited because I can't respond to everything with a non-threatening frog carrying a knife in a very threatening manner.
A blurry zoomed in screenshot of aforementioned frog smiling with pink cheeks. They are walking brandishing a chef's knife that's about as big as the frog is. They will cheerfully cut you.

But have a Canadian #kitty to provide some small amount of comfort while we sit and watch and wait 💜

Definitely! A personal favorite is one of Peter Chiykowski's
Is it wrong to tamper with human D.N.A.? Is it wrong to murder an entire ethics committee? Is it wrong to replace them with obedient laboratory clones? I leave these questions in the capable hand of the ethics committee. watch this story animated and narrated at shorteststory.com/ethics

I hope you have an excellent end of the year 🥳

They look like an amalgamation of my voids! 💜
Nala, a black cat with green eyes puts the belly on display. For pets or for war? Only she knows. Pip, a black cat with half-closed yellow eyes, and Nala, a black cat with mostly-closed green eyes, snuggle together on the couch. Sleepy kitties

My cat once deleted multiple slides from a presentation I needed to give in grad school. Next level dog-ate-my-homework.

Advertise your account with one image.
A poster that has a black cat with yellow eyes sitting on a pile of books with flowers and leaves around them. The background of the poster looks like old newspaper print. In large letters it says "Once upon a time there was a girl who really loved books and cats it was ME the end"

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn’t Nirvana, Pearl Jam, or Alice in Chains…
No Doubt - Tragic Kingdom's album cover: Gwen Stefani in the foreground holding an orange. The band is in a field of wheat with a bare or dead tree. There are flies and rotting oranges around the blue edges.

They would agree with you on that 😂
Nala and I have reached something of a compromise
Nala, a small black cat begrudgingly shares the green blanket with the one who paid for it (off screen is Pip, the larger black cat, who has started asking for an early dinner as compensation)

"No, you may NOT have your blanket."

Two black cats snuggle together and glare without moving while the one who pays the rent and buys all the food asks to please have a turn with the green blanket they're on.

Don't tell me when I can or can't paint! 😂
A cockroach, leg kicked out like they're part of a chorus line, has been painted into the wall by a lazy landlord who didn't do things in the correct order. This cockroach is a permanent part of the structure of the house now.
