Now that they’re announced, I’m pleased to report that my manuscript angel/androgyne was shortlisted in the inaugural J. Alfred Prufrock Poetry Prize at Indirect Books, and was also a finalist for the 2026 Sally Albiso Poetry Award out of Moonpath Press. Fingers crossed she’ll win next time!

cis people can just ignore trans people to death when they don't like what they have to say which is pretty messed up but I don't know any cis people who are ready to admit their complicity in that dynamic.

you clearly didn't watch that movie because when they found out someone was smarter than them they actually listened to him and tried to make the world better

the fascists claim there's a secret massive organized leftist effort to lie to the American people which is why they must continue enacting a massive organized effort to lie to the American people

Robert Thorn, wounded, staggers out into the street, his face a sheet of horror. The crowd turns to look at him.
"People!," he cries. "Soylent Green is people!"
The crowd is silent for one beat. Two. Then, a better-dressed white person in the crowd asks "Okay, but like... WHICH people?"

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:
He cannot designate an idea as a terrorist group.

There is no org called ANTIFA. There is no leadership or funding path or no membership. Also there is no terrorism law in America. Ask Luigi.

He wants to call anyone a terrorist. That’s Fascism.

What a lot of people still aren’t catching is that being able to “overlook” racism doesn’t make you progressive or even a good person. It makes you unsafe and complicit.

Community doesn’t overlook racism. It confronts it. You can’t heal a divide if you’re content to ignore why the divide exists.

Nancy Mace has forfeited any claim to representative office, she is a domestic stochastic terrorist who deserves prosecution for hate crimes
1. Anti-trans rhetoric heated up yesterday on the far-right, with two congresspeople and major Republican figures calling for the institutionalization of trans people.

Both Reps Nancy Mace and Ronny Jackson made such calls. Musk, Loomer, and Walsh echoed them.

cis ppl maybe don't tell trans folks you're "here for" us when we're in mourning, bc obviously you're not. maybe don't express solidarity if you never speak to us the rest of the time
