when I say "I started writing a new book" I really mean I've thought up a singular interesting scene playing out to a specific song that I am currently fleshing out in great detail in hopes this thing called "a plot" emerges from the veiled fog of my vague daydreams

Okay it may seem bad that Meta appropriated the entirety of the written word without compensating or even consulting with any writers, but consider what the world got out of it: a thing you accidentally tap in Instagram

I have (my first!) nonfiction in here about struggling with undiagnosed autism. While I did eventually get a formal diagnosis, I wrote the piece right after I was denied an eval referral due to how "well-adjusted" I seem. Thank you @coinoppress.bsky.social for giving me the chance to share the vent.

The Guardian is reporting that Trump is openly violating a court order, and has transferred multiple transgender women to men's facilities. We know in Florida, transgender women are having their hair shorn, feminine items confiscated, and pulled off medication. This is inhumane and illegal.
