Conservatives have got to stop with the "we supported gay rights until those icky trans people came along" bullshit. I'm old enough to remember when my marriage wasn't legally recognized in my home state BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY EIGHT YEARS AGO. Fuck entirely and permanently off.
Honestly, IT Chapter 2 should have featured a lot more scenes of Mike Hanlon leaving increasingly annoyed voice mails. Who was picking up phone calls from unknown numbers in 2019?
If I thought 100k would actually bring him happiness or peace I'd say no in a heartbeat, but he'd just find new and more expensive ways to fuck up his life and relationships, so I'm going for it.
Having kids will make you compromise on many points you once considered adamant, including but not limited to "we only watch A Muppet Christmas Carol in December."

I had that rarest of luxuries, an afternoon of child care and no plans, so I went and saw EVIL DEAD RISE in an otherwise completely empty theater. When there's a [redacted for spoilers] before the title appears, you know you're in for a gnarly, nasty time!
I will never, ever forget or forgive the TERFs who tried to shut down an *abortion doula training* for having a small aside about inclusive language for trans clients.
It’s so fucking weird to see people say “why aren’t women allowed to have rights anymore” and then realized that they mean the right to exclude marginalized people and not, like, abortion or contraceptives, the things actually under attack.
You know what something like this would weed out? Anything written in dialect or non-standard English.
Software made in a racist world will keep perpetuating racism. Anyone who thinks code is unbiased and neutral is dangerously deluded.
This is so freaking dangerous. We're talking about a software evaluating submissions for grammar...which can be boiled down to software eliminating submissions based on voice. I have no words.
It's pride month! Do me a favor: If you're a queer horror creator who has NOT appeared in Midnight Pals yet, drop a response to this post with a summary of your project and a link to where folks can purchase/support it.
I know this cool rainy spring is probably a harbinger of something apocalyptic, but I'm sorry, I fucking love it. Let's never have summer. Let's always have thunderstorms and the smell of lilacs.

My beloved friend's house caught fire and is uninhabitable. They are looking for a place to live while it's repaired, but right now they're stuck in a hotel. Please help them bridge the gap:
The New York City Police Department ushered in Pride Month this year in spectacular but unsurprising fashion: by arresting a Black transgender activist.
I'm not even gonna pretend to be chill about this. MY FIRST NOVEL IS ON ITS WAY. I'M A NOVELIST. So much love and gratitude to @kate_mckean and @j_zimms, and look for THE Z WORD in 2024!!!
, out next year, and absolutely fucking loved it. If you've ever thought "I wish cosmic horror had more bank-robbing lesbians" - and who among us hasn't? - this book is going to rock your world.
