"Predator: Bloodshed #1 was as strong a foundational, world-building first issue as it gets, mixing real-world social commentary covered in a bloody, sci-fi shell."
A great review of PREDATOR: BLOODSHED #1, written by @jordanmorris.bsky.social!
I’m pretty sure that the band Joyce Manor still consider their home club to be an unused room behind a Japanese convenience store in Torrance. I had such a great time talking with them.

my interview with Jesse Thorn on Bullseye

The honest truth is that given the best evidence, given a child with consistent and persistent gender difference and the consistent and persistent desire for medical intervention, the conservative path is to offer care. The radical choice is to deny it, based on ideology or stubbornness or cruelty.
04.03.2026 22:35 — 👍 39 🔁 3 💬 0 📌 0To offer gender-affirming care or to deny care are both serious, permanent choices. There is no avoiding the choice. The question is whether the choice respects the life and health of the human being involved, or an imagined world where they are someone else.
04.03.2026 22:31 — 👍 43 🔁 2 💬 1 📌 0This so much. All choices carry consequences, no choice is certain. No medical intervention of any kind is perfectly safe or perfectly effective. But gender-affirming care works. It is a caring choice by committed caregivers who listen to and respect the humanity of kids.

Collectively. At every turn I have felt active support from cis queer people. Nobody is buying this bullshit except opinion editors.
