It's time for everyone's favorite chronologically unanchored holiday, The Story of the Lizard in the Leg.
Because people keep asking, the Story of The Lizard In That Dude's Leg. Some caveats:
1. This happened more than twenty years ago. There are no pictures. There was a small article in a local paper with, again, no pictures (I'm assuming that's what the producers of 9-1-1: LONE STAR found).

A look at Canada's War of 1812 monument in Ottawa — seven figures represent the allies that defeated the American invasion: a Royal Navy sailor, a Métis fighter, a woman bandaging the arm of a Voltigeur, a Native warrior, a Canadian militiaman, and a soldier from the Royal Newfoundland Regiment.

I think there’s a business case for someone to take on researching finding specific products that are not US made for a small fee. Im a darned good researcher and I still can’t find a queso that’s either made in Canada or at least not US. (yes queso as that orange glop is probably a US invention)

Family, it has been a really bad few months of sales for trans authors. I know there are a lot of reasons for this (the economy is in the toilet, everything costs more, Amazon boycotts, etc), but trans stories still deserve to be read, and trans authors still deserve to be supported.
On that note:
Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.
Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.
Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo

Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"
So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?
