I’m currently working away at Summer Shorts, a collection of unapologetically gay short (and longer) stories. It’s firmly in the erotica genre but it’s also me seeing if I can do a bit more as a writer. #booksky 💙📚 #books #gayerotica

Too easy! A few choice words to Fergus & Dean and they were circling each other like overweight alley cats. The #clash, when it came, was more of a squash, but their fists were still like mallets.
The crowd oooed as one of Dean’s yellow teeth flew through the air & I slipped in the back. #vss365

It was a whisper designed to be heard: One does not #associate with riff raff!
Gallantia blinked slowly, eyeballs rotating behind her green painted lids til they found their target.
The girl ignored her & stuck out a hand covered in inky twisting vines:
I’m Lacey, but you can call me Raff. #vss365

Your public distaste,
Dressed up in god’s garb,
Is made clear in all
Your sharp slicing glances.

But when we’re alone,
With the ticking clock
And your heavy breath,
That look turns sly,
Those values stretch,
Tight #elastic as you pray
Forgiveness,
Even as you fall to your knees.

“Only ten years ago we were the best in the world in the annual LGBTI Rights Ranking. We’re now 22nd... This is not just an embarrassment abroad – it’s also a tragedy at home for tens of thousands of people struggling to live lives of quiet dignity.” goodlaw.social/5mgp
UK plummets down rankings for LGBTQ+ rights
Last month’s Supreme Court ruling has seen the UK fall six places to 22nd. It’s time to fight back

Are you an ally who wants to speak up about protecting trans people’s rights?

Use our simple tool to email your MP or MSPs to tell them how worried you are about what the UK Supreme Court ruling might mean for how trans people are treated in their daily lives:

Easily the most fun in music so far this year. Gaga is fun but Mayhem is still a fairly typical soft rock/pop album to me. But DJ Koze’s fizzing clattering paintbox of sounds and voices and colours is something I am loving listening to over and over. #music #djkoze

The man at the end of the alley whistles. I want to say a tune, but the notes bleed together like a kettle left to boil.
Lamplight catches a smile, but as he sidles closer, I see grey teeth filling his maw like bars on a prison window.
Tonight, he announces, I’ll be the #death of you. #vss365

No #grief for this funeral, only duty. An uncle never known, not to be missed.
Mangled pheasants dot the roadside like gruesome mile markers. Acid green shoots tear free of silver sheaths, pockmarking the trees with new colour. We drive in silence, the gaudy riot of life & death unremarked. #vss365

I’ve no idea if this affects anyone who might see this, but undermining the right to vote with seemingly no need to directly inform people affected just sounds procedurally and ethically awful.
If you are an NC resident and voted in November, please check if your name or the names of any family areone of the 60K votes being challenged. If so, confirm ASAP with your Board of Elections. You only have two weeks.

The website to check linked in the reply.

NC Court of Appeals gives over 60,000 challenged voters 15 days to prove eligibility
The majority wrote that, even though they have the authority to completely throw out the contested ballots, they decided to instead mandate a cure period for most of the challenged voters.

In honour of international Trans Day of visibility, I wanted to shine a spotlight on trans artists whose work I’ve loved. Last year I read Hell Followed with Us by Andrew Joseph White and was bowled over by his visceral post-apocalyptic story of transformation and the monstrous- go read it! #tdov

In honour of international Trans Day of Visibility, I wanted to share some of the artists whose work I have loved. Maya Bouldry-Morrison records as Octo Octa, and her dance music is joyful and physical. Her album Resonant Body is a particular favourite of mine. #TDOV #nolgbwithouttheT

Gotta say that one of the most consistently DELIGHTFUL authors I have ever read is T Kingfisher @tkingfisher.com - the warmth of her writing, her lovely humour, the world building, the plots! Just hands down lovely and wonderful. And I’ve still got so many left to read! Recommendations? #💙📚

Just sent the email outlining shirts and colors to my printer. You’ll all get to sit pretty and patiently to see what I chose 💁🏻‍♂️
Checking with my shirt printer about doing an inverted print so that I can get some higher contrast on the darker shirts (shirt becomes the lines and the print is a light bg color). If they say yes, expect another feedback post tomorrow.

In the meantime, here’s the process vid for the design.
