More Audio Book Info All of my T-Tales should soon be available as audiobooks, on both Amazon and Audible. Except for Shadowland, my second Patsy Conroy trans detective book. I have to adjust the format of that one, apparently. Stay tuned.

Just set up my Transgender Tales books on Amazon as audiobooks. Amazon just enabled this function, using AI narration. And surprisingly, it sounds pretty good. I had been hoping to produce audio book versions of my novels using my own voice, but that turned out to be a difficult project.

Just discovered thetransfemininereview.com And the author there had some kind words to say about my book Short Stuff. Thanks for that. And for pointing me to the greater world of trans feminine literature. I have a lot of reading to do. And more writing, too.

You set the house on fire, watched it burn, and then lost your nerve and put it out. You now have a partially burned house. Great job.

I'm so sick of takes like "oh, it's always been like this if you were paying attention." No, it hasn't and you're lying if you say that it has. You're normalizing the brutality.

DOGE is disproportionately targeting grants in blue states that voted for Harris. This is about political retribution. Credit to u/airmovingdevice for this. www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeau...

Utah has become the first state in the country to ban pride flags in all government buildings. Governor Cox cowardly let the bill go into effect without his signature. This is why Sundance film festival left Utah. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

But why Short Stuff, and no other of my dozen or so trans novels? Who the hell knows. It would be interesting to feed this AI one of my books that feature AI as a plot element, though. Solstice, for example. Or Goethe Street. Or Shadowland. What would an AI make of those?

it is, I must admit, interesting to think that my work, my thoughts, and (indirectly) my life, has been incorporated into something with widespread impact and influence. A book I wrote has been used to train the Meta AI. A part of me has been woven into this huge collective tapestry.

So, one of my books, Short Stuff, is on the list of books used by Meta to train its AI. And that’s a double edged sword for me. I don’t like having my work used by someone else for commercial products without receiving compensation. And yet, there is an interesting other thought that occurs.

Kristi Noem billed South Dakota taxpayers more than $640,000 in personal travel-related costs, including a six-day trip to Paris, a bear hunt in Canada, a trip to Houston for dental work to fix her smile, and a book tour. But she can afford a $50,000 Rolex for a prison porn photo op in El Salvador.

X is not worth 33 billion. He basically just paid himself $33B from another company, presumably to pay off his debts from the initial buy because he knows he'll never be able to raise the capital from X itself. He is his own ponzi scheme.

A group of men violently assaulted a transgender veteran in Seattle walking home from work. They cited Trump's trans military ban as they beat her. One of the perpetrators was already wanted for domestic violence and was previously charged with a hate crime. www.thestranger.com/news/2025/03...

Fuck Trump and every one of his fascist enablers at Columbia and Paul Weiss. We have a 1st Amendment for a reason. Use it.

I'll be sure to discourage all my students from working at Paul Weiss going forward. And I'll ask my colleagues to do the same. This is a disgrace to the profession.

I bought a Tesla because it was fast like a rocket ship. But now every time I drive it, I feel like a rolling billboard for a man dismantling our government and hurting people. So Tesla, you’re fired! New ride coming soon.

The Iowa legislature just became the first in modern history to repeal a statutory civil rights law by removing protections for gender identity first passed in 2007. They have legalized discrimination against trans people in housing, healthcare, and employment. This is a campaign of eradication.

I’m thinking about federal income tax. If the federal government isn’t meeting its obligations why should we? Specifically, I’d love to see states get the money first and hold it in trust pending litigation. I want to pay my taxes but not to a government that doesn’t respect the constitution.

A Manhattan Institute fellow just came out as trans. Not even being immersed in their anti trans propaganda can stop someone from coming out. Anyways, good for her for finding her truth. Now, if only she'd stop working for the people trying to eradicate us. www.jessicariedl.blog/p/yes-my-nam...

Idgaf I’m still fighting for guaranteed healthcare. Aspiration is the answer. Not just “we’re not the bad guys.” We need something more meaningful than that. I want a future worth fighting for. They have no vision. We do. Lean into our strengths and knock them out. 👊🏽
