Extremely strange human. Unsettlingly sincere about it.

:) Zines were a thing a couple of decades ago and have become a thing again in response to the rising authoritarianism in the US.
These are how to report ICE - @meganpiont.bsky.social has designed them for about 30 different cities/areas; 16 of them have been translated into Spanish.

I had mtf bottom surgery and my bottom surgeon used to be a halal butcher, which means my vagina would also have been halal if it weren’t made from pulled pork

The BUSINESS of writing is less pleasant than recovering from abdominal surgery. Pitching, self-promotion, invoicing, tracking rejections... yeah all that sucks. And it does drain a bit of the magic from the act of transforming the abstract chemicals in my brain into language.
