the brightest version of the future has you in it, thriving, existing as who you want to be. Let the adults fight for that world - what we need is for you to survive to live in it

what I want trans kids, queer kids, and gender nonconforming kids to know:

you are loved

you are so much more powerful than the ghouls using your healthcare as a political pawn, and you WILL outlive them (they know this, and it is why they're attacking you)

Rob Reiner: “Silence in the face of authoritarianism is complicity. Speaking out is a patriotic act. Democracy doesn’t defend itself. It requires participation, vigilance, and courage from ordinary people."

A few months ago at the Rose Bowl flea market we heard a woman say “I want to find like, a REALLY tiny stool” and we still quote her all the time. She doesn’t know how much she changed our lives

Don't spend your entire Presidential administration attacking higher ed and then act like this isn't the most preventable thing in the world. I fucking hate guns. Those students deserve peace. I'm so sad for them. I hate guns!!

Jesse Hamm had the take to end all takes on children's media. "People who disdain writing ‘just for children’ fail to realize that those children will remember what they read, maybe for the rest of their lives. You’re not writing for permanent children; you’re getting an early start on adults.”

Is this what the kids call a “liminal space”

We are watching Meet Me in St Louis because apparently it’s a Christmas movie (no evidence of that yet). A child just tried to derail a trolley as a prank and Judy Garland said “you could have killed dozens of people” and then everyone laughed. I am losing my mind

Well, @rendy.bsky.social challenged me to make a Scarlet Morning modern day AU, and it was a challenge I could not resist

“Scarlet Morning” is hands down my favorite middle school novel I read this year.

The only down side is now I’ve got to wait for the sequel.

HELLO I have a shop (that I often forget to talk about) and I'm doing 20% off for the next two days, which is the window to order something if you'd like it in time for Christmas (US shipping only). Code is ENDOFYEAR - I have lots of signed books and self published zines!

every use of ai involves tricking someone into thinking something is real lol. the premise is so cheap and annoying, i genuinely suspect it takes a lead-filled boomer brain to find any long-term or authentic enjoyment in it

HarperCollins sent me this gorgeous commemorative copy of Scarlet Morning with leather binding and gilded edges and marbled endpapers??? 😭 I’m so flabbergasted it’s STUNNING

Had a wonderful chat with @gingerhaze.bsky.social about his debut YA novel, Scarlet Morning.

For @autostraddle.bsky.social, he talks about returning to his story he started as a teen (pre-Nimona), his many influences for this swashbuckling pirate tale, and potential AU drawings.

my father passed away just before Thanksgiving from stage iv bladder cancer. I miss him more with every day that passes. I set up a gfm to help my mother with expenses from the medical bills that will come from it so if you could help share I would be so appreciative 🥺🕊️🕊️

Grimly funny that the person best suited for the rigmarole that is obtaining ADHD meds each month definitely does NOT have ADHD
