Mentally there

That first black bird is amazing

🪾 Este 20N se cumplen 50 años de la muerte de Franco y nosotras lo tenemos claro: enterremos el fascismo, enterremos el binarismo ✊🏽

Muchos de los preceptos del régimen fascista siguen vivos. Ante esto: nos toca responder. Construyamos antifascismo queer ❤️‍🔥 #AntifascismoQueer

I think I cannot blame the KNY for all of it, the manga has huge legibility issues that are impossible to fix onscreen

Oh I love this definition of a weirdly wide genre

This. Instead of helping selfpub authors (like the gurus said it would) AI is ruining chances for writers who might have been scammed by designers who swore it was all human made. At this point not everyone have the tools/literacy to spot it & readers won't touch you if you have been connected to AI

Picture of the book "Ring Shout" by P. Djeli Clark. The cover portrays a person in a white hood, with teeth in the eye openings, and two black hands in front of it

Seeing @pdjeliclark.bsky.social tonight in the Sui Generis festival in Madrid. Which is very serendipitous since this is the next novel I've picked for my speculative fiction book club 💪🔥

Please help a TCD posgrad couple looking for a LGBTQ+friendly apartment or apartmentshare/houseshare in/near Dublin. They've stayed at my place and I can vouch for them 100%

Please pass around all your networks. Message me to be put in touch.

Oh I didn't know about her daughter. That show's soundtrack is 💪💪💪

Can you ever forget a Kim Dickens performance?? (Sorry, my crush is showing)

We don't appreciate Allison Anders enough. Gas food lodging is still my idea of the perfect American indie

"This still and unspoken time is one I recognise, the shifting boundaries between realms of sleep and waking, the edges of oblivion. She writes: ‘My thoughts have become strands of weed, of no special colour, slowly undulating in colourless water.’"
—Anna Evans, soaks in the work of Ana Kavan

Which is weird to me because it's a magazine with quite nice standards (I was browsing the guidelines to send something's because I've enjoyed it as a reader)

You wrote an incredible book. I am being very annoying about it to anyone in my vicinity because such a wonder of a bookthing needs shouting about from the rooftops. I want to say congrats on it but actually what I really want to do is kiss your brain

Submissions guideline page for an online magazine. Under the section "What we don't want" it says "While we don't like to set hard, fast rules form our interests and the creativity of our potential writers, we've found that reading a story in the present tense can be very jarring"

Magazines with submission guidelines where they come down so hard on one tense/pov/syntax or grammar model fascinate me. A tense seems like such a wide thing to "outlaw". I for one, find the anglosphere's insistence that the past tense sounds "more literary" very jarring

Me either, I just can't

Good luck! (On the launch but especially in becoming a dragon, which is every queer person's dream)

I have to read Hemmings!

It's the meme, isn't it? Sybil shooting other countries and then going "Why would non-Sybil societies do this to themselves?" 😅😅 The people who made Psycho Pass really know imperialist tactics, uh

That mostly but I think there's also a part of lack of confidence/wanting to be perceived as "legitimate", so that's why we unconsciously try to use other (more authoritative) voices when we communicate our ideas. White en are taught to believe every great idea is theirs even, the ones they stole 🙃

Had a couple of conversations lately about how men do fewer citations than women* in their books/papers/podcasts. I think there are many reasons for this but they all make sense to me. I wish the epidemic in Linda Stuart's Virus was real, just saying

Need need need

Maybe my own conspiracy theory but I feel a lot of the decline in prose of formerly capable writers (not those pivoting to het, just in general) come from editor's guidelines for simple prose

Please share, please donate, please do what you can. Despair is not an option, you can help.

My hand holding a copy of "Bad language" by So Mayer

Fellas (as in fellow travellers, which in my heart is a non-binary term), I cannot explain how much I'm falling in love with this book

Picture of a page of "Bad language" by So Mayer, with the words "ambisexual ambigendered person" in focus at the center

i'm going to start calling myself an ambivalent ambisexual ambigendered person in homage to @suchmayer.bsky.social

Friends told me it went very well! I'm happy but extra jealous

Can't believe @badaude.bsky.social has a book launch in Spain today when I'm in London and @suchmayer.bsky.social 's launch is this week but when I'm no longer in London. What is this conspiracy to keep me away from my favourite authors????

So precious
