Hey. Psst. Send.

This is the same perverse Nazi logic that led Hans Asperger to distinguish between Autism and Asperger's Syndrome: those children who would be killed and those who would be used. Don't get bogged down in arguments about ability or humanity. These are overtures to genocide.

The 1970s brought us the first Black vampire movies and the rise of indie horror. #NowWatching Ganja & Hess (1973) #horrorsky #Suckathon2

Every person with a spectrum disorder has a more valuable life than RFK Jr, and every trans/nb person has a more valuable life than JK Rowling. You are a human with dignity and they are sunken demons

Let me get this straight... Republican congressmen are allowed to take vanity tours in CECOT prison in El Salvador, but Senator Chris Van Hollen is denied entry to check on the welfare of his wrongly imprisoned constituent?

We've reached the point where Republicans are flying to El Salvador to visit one of the most vicious prisons in the world to have photo ops so they can prove their loyalty to the President of the United States.

Please support your local bookshop. They're the ones who support writers and writing. As a writer on a small-but-mighty independent press, the word-of-mouth goodwill at local bookshops has made my writing career possible.

SCOOP: Internal budget doc reveals extent of Trump’s proposed health cuts. About 1/3 of HHS discretionary budget. Our story w @carolynyjohnson.bsky.social @rachelroubein.bsky.social @joelachenbach.bsky.social @laurenweberhp.bsky.social www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...

This is a pivot point.

Behind every terrible American policy decision of the 21st century is a handful of essays written in the mid-90s with titles like "Civilization, Where Art Thou?," which argue that "The West" is about to be besieged by hoards of diseased immigrants, perverts, and heathens.

Tonight we learned that it was indeed Andry, the gay man sent to El Salvador because of his “mom” and “dad” tattoos, who an American journalist saw sobbing as guards slapped him repeatedly and shaved his head. He is an innocent. And Trump sent him to a torture prison. Bring them back!

Honored to have my @publiccitizen.bsky.social research on Trump's corporate pardons and plunging corporate crime enforcement highlighted in an interview with Corporate Crime Reporter www.corporatecrimereporter.com/news/200/ric...

Wow. I hope you guys are happy. I hope you guys are proud of yourselves!

Ok I am home sick and I had my coffee! For each like, a strong opinion.

A friend of Neri Alvarado, the young Venezuelan man with an autism awareness tattoo sent to El Salvador, shared this video from members of the swim club where he worked with neurodiverse children. More about Neri from @isabelaalhadeff.bsky.social and I here: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

hey, it's 🌮ToC o'Tuesday!!🌮 here's the lineup for issue 38 💀🖤 /

I'm absolutely delighted that I'm going to be a part of this forthcoming issue of The Deadlands due out later this month - just look at that gorgeous cover art 😍 PIGEON LOVE.

Hands Off Social Security!

Welcome to the free thinker’s podcast, the last space where you can say anything in this woke culture. Please refrain from criticizing the President of the United States and the richest man in the world because those guys are my friends. Here’s six hours about how hard it is to be a cop.

Wohooo! Congratulations to the brilliant @hebagowayed.bsky.social! Her new project the “The Cost of Borders” could not come at a more consequential time. Fantastic to see such important scholarship receive support.

By the way, for folks who are looking for a convention, Flights of Foundry is in its SIXTH year of round-the-clock fantastic programming, all-virtual, and global. Attend in your jammies, or in fabulous cosplay. Make new friends and wonderful connections. Join us, Sept 26-28 flights-of-foundry.org

Trans women are women. Simple as.

Please share & give to help Duaa and Mahmoud's family, including their little son Adam who's very sick & needs urgent treatment & nutrition, survive Israel's genocidal famine & assault on Gaza. They're starving, & Mahmoud has burns from unsafe cooking fires. Help them get medicine, gas, & food:

No trans people were consulted on this decision that only affects trans people. In fact trans people were actively barred from consulting on this decision that only affects trans people. But transphobic bigots? Oh they got consulted for days. Fucking grim. I'm absolutely fuming.

1 slot left!

Last year Flights of Foundry let me run a goth share where people got to bring goth things that they love and share and talk about them. Like this is the cool stuff they let a weirdo do...it's a great con!

if you are a cis person it costs you nothing to just say today that you see & hear your trans sisters & brothers & others over in the UK today -- and around the world, too, knowing that rulings like today's ripple out in ugly ways.

Hello! I cannot do much of anything from here about the UK ruling, but I make the same offer I made when America did the same dumb thing. Trans authors comment with your books. I will repost them all and buy/review what I can.

Trans rights are human rights. Trans women are women. Trans men are men. Today, everyday. Solidarity. ❤️‍🔥

I can't emphasize enough that the most important thing journalists can do right now is publish exactly this kind of article

I remember thinking Moore was being a bit harsh on a fairly bog-standard (if popular) bit of children's fiction. what hubris had I, to question the Magus thus.

remember league of extraordinary gentlemen, the alan moore thing where old stories all lived together. hyde and orlando and dorian grey, bad sean connery film of it, etc. he eventually got to the modern era and made harry potter the antichrist of fiction. destructive force from a diseased mind

Thank you to everyone who nominated Countess for the Aurora Awards and thank you to my community. Very honored to be among this group of finalists! Congratulations to everyone. Solidarity, love and "indominable hope" to all in these very difficult times. 💜🖤 www.csffa.ca/awards-infor...

Pathetic, dangerous lies: DOGE “inflates its progress by including billion-dollar errors, by counting spending that will not happen in the next fiscal year — and by making guesses about spending that might not happen at all.” www.nytimes.com/2025/04/13/u...

As far as I'm aware, the first documented spike in data leaving an agency after DOGE infiltration. Extensive forensic evidence. www.npr.org/2025/04/15/n...
