I want to make a list of *short stories* (any genre) published by intersex authors in 2025 & hopefully going forward. I've been meaning to do this for a while, and I think now there are plenty of stories.

If you have some stories, let me know / if not, please repost to spread the word?

Thank you!

Rolling Stone didn't put Sinners on its top 20 list of films for this year and I'm appalled.

Here's a lovely photo of a plethora of hand-sewn fabric art creatures. There's a watermelon creature with a red face, eight black seed-like eyes, and a wide mouth with five sharp teeth. There's a white ghost trinket bag covered with purple embroidered flowers. She has a gray face, sparkly black eyes and a little frown. There's a strawberry creature with three bulbous green eyes. There's a watermelon ghost, and a black creature with sharp teeth wearing a bulbous eye earring. There's a large purple creature with many yellow eyes and an open mouth, with a little green creature popping her head out. All the creatures are sitting on green fur and there's a galaxy print fabric in the background.

Hey Bluesky, could you help spread the word about my Patreon? My goal for the day is one new patron.

Patrons help support my art and my existence. You'll receive positive affirmations from Felmer, etiquette advice from Mothman, & other fun posts.

I don't need AI to help me overuse em dashes. I've been doing that on my own since middle school.

I've talked about it before but the AIDS Quilt and the project of memorializing queer stories through tangible physical objects is fundamental to how I want to make art and the methods and mediums I choose. This is such a loving interactive digital archive, and I am so sad and glad for it.

Day 1 - Madeleine can hear the guffawing of supremely confident men from the other side of the door. She can detect the brittle tones of her mother and the giggle of her sisters. She takes a deep, restorative and bracing breath, steeling herself for what is inevitably to follow 1/2

It's not "required" because you can do whatever but if you're not using it, you'll find far fewer people share your work.

Watercolour and ink drawing by me of a grumpy-looking steelhead trout in a deep green pool, frowning up at a large selection of Christmas-themed fishing lures including candy canes, a wreath, a golden tree-topper star, a gingerbread man, green & red glass tree ornaments, a string of Christmas lights, & a Christmas cracker. The fish's mouth is turned down in determination not to bite on any of these.

it's december & that means #ArtAdventCalendar, a tradition started by my friend @jayispainting.earthskyart.ca . i shall endeavour to have all fish, but for now here's an oldie as a placeholder: "Humbug Pool"

because around here it's also winter steelhead season

A 10-inch circular birch-plywood frame holds a round hand-hooked rug of wool flannel fabric strips on a linen foundation fabric. The centre of the design is a traditional Métis floral medallion, with crimson-red petals, pink buds, and grass-green leaves and tendrils; the background colour is sapphire blue; it is surrounded by a border of four white infinity symbols. The ergonomic rug hook I used to hook this piece lays beside it on a white tabletop.

#ArtAdventCalendar My adaptation of ‘A Rose For Josie’, designed by Métis rug hooker Karen Lediard as a challenge for The International Guild of Handhooking Rugmakers’ 2024 conference, and hooked using beadwork colour symbolism as a gift for a Métis friend. #RugHooking

Two self-similar Lissajous Figures are connected to form a ribbon. The 3D ribbon is yellow and the 2D projections are green-blue and blue-violet, respectively. By elkement 2025.

Oooh, it’s time for #ArtAdventCalendar again! I haven’t made much art this year but I’ll see what I can find in the archives. 😉

Day One: A pencil drawing of a juvenile Tawny Owl, inspired by a pair of Tawny Owl fledglings which frequented our garden a few summers ago.

A wide necked vase held in hand. The green brown glaze is shiny and glossy. Root like carvings start at the bottom and branch upward, the glaze filling in the carving with a rich green.

Part of me wants to post an #ArtAdventCalendar entry of just macro photos I took this year of various invertebrates.

But I am tired and I have so many other things to do...

Eh fuck it, let's see how many days I remember.

Here, have an invertebrate 😘

A digital painting of a Wyandotte rooster, with black edged rust red feathers, long amber feathers trailing from his neck and bright red wattles. He has bright iridescent and black tail feathers arching up and back. The background is simple, washes of watercolor for brown dirt, sage green brushes, and a Robin’s egg blue sky.

Happy first day of #ArtAdventCalendar, folks.

I’m sharing this excellent Wyandotte rooster I digitally painted for #birdtober. I work in #Procreate using natural media brushes.

Watercolour painting showing a bird sitting on a branch. The bird, a great spotted woodpecker, is black and white with a red vent. The branch is highly textured and detailed with blue-green lichen and peeling bark. There is a hint of golden light coming up from below. The background is a slightly textured wash in shades of blue, cooler at the bottom and warmer at the top.

Just finished this painting of a branch, incidentally featuring a great spotted woodpecker! 😂
