On the bright side, being a member of a hunted, reviled class/culture is gonna do wonders for my art

Though I do sometimes feel like almost all of games is chock full of trans folks so that prob won't help me stand out lol

Sad Dad Era is done. Get ready for the Angry Gay You Call Daddy/Mommy Era.

I just watched this prescient 2012 episode from political comedians Clarke & Dawe. It includes this:

C: Well, as you know in Economics, the great battle in the 20th century was that between capital and labour…
D: Won by capital
C: Won resoundingly by capital, who then move on to the next round and...
D: Who do they meet in the next?
C: They're going to meet democracy in the final
D: Wow, that'll be a good match
C: It'll be an absolute cracker

CAN'T PLAY DEAD, a transgender vampire novel I wrote is out.

Trans Day of Visibility felt like an appropriate day to release it - and to celebrate, I've temporarily made my novella set in the same universe free to download.

In honor of trans day of visibility, I'm posting this pride flag that was created by NASA, but recently deleted from their website: https://svs.gsfc.nasa.gov/14627.

Do not travel to the US. Under any circumstance. Think you're safe because your paperwork is in order? Fuck you, it does not matter.

I propose Rabbit's Unicorn, a future AI that rewards everyone who doesn't do anything to bring about Roko's Basilisk with candy in a simulated paradise.

Does it feel hopeless right now? Do you feel powerless? Let me offer you the following facts:

1. Tesla is tanking so hard right now they had to parade a bunch of cars in front of the fucking White House just to try to boost sales.

2. Target and Walmart have seen sales tank so drastically in the last month they are immediately rolling back their anti DEI stances.

3. Congress has never in history seen this amount of call volume. They typically get 40-50 calls a minute. They are currently trying to field upwards of 1,600-2,000 calls every minute.

4. The Resistance has been so vocal at town halls that the GOP had to officially instruct Republican congressmen to stop doing them.

5. This administration hasn't been able to make a single tariff stick for longer than 3 days because of all the fallout.

You. Are. Powerful.

They expected you to just put your head down and roll over and do nothing. Instead you resisted. You fought back. You showed up. And you continue to show up.

You're showing up for education. For veterans. For trans folk. For women. For immigrants. For people of color. For free speech. For international allies. You're showing up for what's right and you're refusing to obey fascism in advance.

And what's more, there is no coordinated response among the elected officials, judges, and appointed GOP heads. They're floundering. All of them. They weren't expecting this. And they have no idea what to do about it.

Best (and most depressing) thread about the state of Sweden I've *ever* read. 😞
