This Halloween, we’re reclaiming the “monster." Who gets called monstrous, and why?

Draw or write your own creature, one that reveals the truth about survival, adaptation, and power. 
Our FLINTA* bodies were never the horror story.

The final two brilliant Vol.6 pieces explore what it means to survive inside a FLINTA* body: to ache, to endure, and find tenderness in between it all.

This week's creative prompt: Redraw the Human Anatomy Chart. 🫀

Add the details they didn’t include: the euphoric hormone patch, the nerve that flares up, the scar that embodies strength.

Make it queer. Make it FLINTA*. Make it real!

🪄 Vol.6 Featured Writer: Brittany Micka-Foos

Her essay “The Hoax Underneath My Scars” entwines scars, music, and the failures of medical care — with Taylor Swift’s “Hoax” as a lens for pain and resilience.

FLINTA* healthcare doesn’t have to be abstract. Through our Vol.6 contributors, it’s lived and real through the lenses of stigma, love, and the body’s persistence.

We want to take a moment to reaffirm our values and make our stance clear. In light of ongoing attacks on DEI, we’re using this space to say: we’re not backing down.

Anodyne exists to provide a safe, cathartic space for FLINTA* creators. We’ve also included resources and ways to support each other.

Happy Bisexual Visibility Day! 💜💖💙

Bi folks aren’t “half-and-half,” and no, we don’t have to pick a side.

To all the bisexual FLINTA* friends — we see you and we celebrate you.

ANODYNE means many things, but never just one. 📖🩵

Traditionally: to soothe, to numb, to be “harmless.”

Our "anodyne" is LOUD, bright, unapologetic. We are a literary magazine for FLINTA* health, creativity, and resistance. 🌟

This #OverdoseAwarenessDay (Aug 31), let’s get real:

Bisexual women are over 2× more likely to misuse prescription opioids than straight women. Plus, LGBTQ+ folks face substance use rates 2–3× higher.

Addiction is a public health crisis. Let’s fight stigma and demand better access to care.
