if you think the greatest threat to effeminate gay boys is the trans movement and not the cis straight men who overwhelmingly exclude and brutalize them then you should walk into the ocean immediately

Do you hear what I hear?

Whenever I'm having a bad day, I'll just pretend it's because my own personal archangel has been opening his seals and vials again.

Starmer apparently has memory issues. Or he thinks everyone else does. So fickle. So disingenuous.

My Press' 2026 poetry pamphlets are almost here! Lyrical & strange, these wildly different books cover life and migration both earthly and interdimensional. πŸ’š

I did meet my wife doing improv (she was NOT one of the types of people mentioned above lol) so I think I probably had a good time overall!

they did once tell me straight-faced that they wouldn't discriminate based on whether performers were funny, or else that wouldn't be inclusive.

Joke's on me for joining an improv soc, honestly. I DID get a hot wife out of it, though so ig it evens out.

Unfortunately, I can really easily believe people like this exist because they were all running my university Improv Comedy society.

In this episode of Rupert, our intrepid little bear receives instruction in sorcery from Baphomet; he eats the magic berries and thus obtains a vision of PAN.

I'll post a few of my poems this year. As @carcanet.bsky.social published my 1st collection 45 years ago - in spring! - time for some old friends. (I do have MANY new poems, but I'm finishing those after 5 years on my prose book, 'Village'!) Here's 'Lapwings' from 'Gallop', my Carcanet 'Selected!

Also most NHS practices that *do* monitor hormones keep trans patients on a lower dose than is healthy, leading to health problems, so banging on about the safety of NHS vs DIY is bullshit at the best of times.

HRT medications are generally far safer than eg. paracetamol, which is widely available from supermarket shelves in the UK and incredibly cheap. Also we shouldn’t need β€œcounselling” to get them; they should be available without prescription as they are in many other countries

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

He did not have congressional approval to blow up boats in the Caribbean

He did not have congressional approval to kill the survivors of those strikes

He did not have congressional approval to invade Venezuela

He did not have congressional approval to bomb Iran

This is dictatorship. Impeach now
