Paging Dr. Hart I've written before about Dr. Alan Hart (1890-1962), the transgender radiologist, novelist, and medical researcher from the Pacific Northwest. Today I'm reporting back on his novel The Undaunted (1936...

HARTAPALOOZA 2025 continues with my notes on Alan Hart's The Undaunted, a 1930s technothriller about liver and the meaning of life: isaacs-law.ghost.io/paging-dr-ha...

I've only been logging on to check my mentions lately, but I did have to post this W.H. Auden captcha. "Choose all the clocks/select the telephone/click on the squares that show a juicy bone..."

Things to read if you loved Notes from a Regicide by Isaac Fellman First up, congrats on your amazing taste in books! High five. But alas, assuming you have already burned through Fellman’s back catalogue (if you haven’t, why not, fix that, and then come flail at …

An attempt at a different format - I talk about books that might pair well with Notes from a Regicide by Isaac Fellman, and have a go at making a rec list.

a pink and blue menu for Roxy's Diner

a red and cream menu for Lenny's Diner and Pissery

a red-toned menu for Six Kitties Cafeteria

a green and purple menu for Lucky's Cat Food Cafeteria

hi! maybe you remember me from the menu i made for my cat, which hit surprisingly big a little while ago. i made some menus for other people's pets in exchange for donations to pro-trans organisations. now i'm doing it again, but for food banks.

please share! more info downthread!

Isaac, June, and M.M. are all extremely talented, and while I haven't read the other authors featured, that lineup suggests to me that they are similarly worth listening to!

An event flier advertising a group reading called Trans Love: The Meet Cute on October 25 at 5 pm at Silver Sprocket. The authors are Grayson Thompson, Eden Nobile, June Martin, Isaac Fellman, M.M. Olivas, and Violet.

Incredible lineup for our trans event at Lit Crawl this Saturday! Also, it's at Silver Sprocket, so you can buy comics before/during/after the reading -- a truly ideal combination.

It's been fascinating to trace the last 20 years of fashion trends through this show, of which much has aged badly or (more kindly) become a period piece. I lived in Portland for most of its run, so it was remarkable to learn that bangs-and-fascinators girls only broke containment for a year or two

we're watching early seasons of project runway together, and this show was RIFE with jombathoon content. They'd let the key players introduce themselves in the first episode -- the person who's going to win and the one who's going to lose -- but there'd also be 5-6 phantoms slowly manifesting later

finding the same package in my mail was the BEST

oh I'm glad you got to go, it sounded like cammmmmp (complimentary)

I don't read a lot of dark academia and am surprised that this is something that's underengaged with -- it is such a key part of the complicated prestige dynamics, the aesthetics and traditions, and it's also just kind of 101 stuff, like writing about an American college without discussing majors

looking through opera glasses at the tv

I don't think I ever parsed that the upperhouse is pretty airy and nice, which only makes the underhouse more Lynchian

i have taken Note of the Title

Naturally, when it came time to pay my own tribute to this subgenre, I set it in New York and called it New York

nowadays I couldn't be less about wheel of time, but I did read a lot of it in high school and one thing it's instilled in me is that more fantasy should be set in an almost unrecognizable future (gene wolfe of course took the same idea to levels rarely seen).

I'm always so happy to see you. Who else is combining steadiness and wit like this?

also, Christ, I also named a significant character Simon in my current manuscript; plainly the name is more of a favorite than I realize.

this family spends SO much time semi-subtextually beefing about what constitutes good food, and what it means to cook or buy food, which I feel is true to life for so many families I know

I lost my MIND. It really does stay that good all the way through. Exquisite book.

A Journey Around My Room - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Journ... I wanted to like this SO Much btw, but this era of comedy rarely does anything for me, even before the potentially dubious translation comes into it

that is SO SICK -- can you drop the artist?

taking a break from these for now (I will let you all know if and when I reopen them!) but here are a few more pet menus i've made these past few days. thank you to everyone who donated to a trans-supportive org! you all make the world feel better to exist in.

hi, cis folks!

if you said you’d stand with trans people, we need you now.

the FY26 budget bill gets a vote by 9/30. the GOP wants to jam a ban on federal funding for ALL health services that provide trans care for ANY AGE.

we need you to call senators: reps.fyi

more info & script downthread.🧵

YEAH!

I can't believe John is doing a sea-disaster album specifically for me, like what patreon tier have I unlocked in heaven

these days I rejoice in having one (1) normal petty problem, like "HOW will I not over-listen to the sick new Mountain Goats single before the album comes to place it in context"
