Today I went to the library and now I can borrow books here in my hometown again. Staff was super friendly and supportive, I had a lovely time. My hot take is that libraries are good

Happy Halloween everybody!
I got back on tumblr which has caused me to mostly forget that I have this account. So, just to update, I have spent the recent past rapidly alternating between
1. cautious optimism
2. efforts to reconnect with my community
3. horny depression
Okay luv u

Now, more than ever, you have to be a weird little pervert who makes art of questionable quality. You need to be driven crazy by the flesh. Because, as we all learned from Cronenberg's The Fly, the computers are not made crazy by the flesh. They can't do it like us.

After having to pause these plans for a while, I am once again trying to start making porn!
I would greatly appreciate if any of followers could put me in touch with other porn people, especially in Chicago. Not currently living in the city but I visit frequently.

It's not just "porn" sites. As of midnight, any site that allows NSFW is now legally required in the UK to bar visitors unless they present a govt ID, submit to a biometric scan, or otherwise identify themselves.
That means Discord, Bluesky, Reddit, X.

My mom is coming home next week!
Her health has improved recently to the point where she no longer qualifies for hospice. We're frustrated by how some administrative stuff was handled leading up to this, but the big takeaway is that her health has improved dramatically.

I heard this news yesterday while spending time with my mother, who has advanced cancer and is in hospice. This news fills me with great sadness and deep gratitude for the gifts they left for us. I'll be sharing their work with Mom soon.

Quiet in the House is a psychological horror film about four women inspired and tormented by their manipulative theater director–and an unseen supernatural force. It's about performance, fantasy, sadomasochism, gender, & how you get a poltergeist.

My mom has an elderly roommate at the nursing home. Her daughter came through the coffee shop I work at today. We had a pleasant enough chat until she abruptly asked what my mother is dying of, with no signs of seriousness or concern. We do not know each other, we've spoken once before this.

"When I arrived on the scene, the cops were seriously outnumbered—thousands of protesters, a couple hundred cops. If there had truly been a riot, those cops would have found themselves overrun, disarmed, brutalized. But it was a protest. So they were fine."

What I Saw in LA Wasn’t an Insurrection. It Was a Police Riot.
As Trump mobilizes the marines to quell an “insurrection” in LA, it’s essential to be clear about how the protests started and what actually happened.
