Hello, I'm Ethan Vanek, freelance SEO writer and author of post-apocalyptic horror fantasy and vampire stories with overwhelmingly LGBTQIA+ OCs. Currently working on WIPs in those genres.

An old. Cut my teeth on Delany, Tiptree, Lee. Unapologetic trans punk.

Miss Major Griffin-Gracy passed away today according to the House of GG. She was a veteran of the Stonewall rebellion and a lifelong organizer for the safety and dignity of trans people, sex workers, and the incarcerated. She came from the same generation and milieu as Marsha and Sylvia. She was 78.

(1/3) October 13 is #IndigenousPeoplesDay (US). Indigenous Peoples’ Day honours the Indigenous folks across what some call Turtle Island. Indigenous Peoples should always be honoured because nothing on this stolen land exists without them.
The Sex Work Historian Indigenous Peoples’ Day infographic. The image is of eagle feathers on an orange background. It has the words “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” in bold, red letters. The image also has the Sex Work Historian logo (a grey peach) and a red umbrella (the international symbol for sex workers’ rights).

my least favorite thing about this surgery process is how it fucked up my meds schedule, and now I see again the spectre of depression in the corner, growing larger with every breath

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois.

We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.
Abbott activates emergency resources ahead of growing wildfire threat, flood risk in Texas
With expected growing wildfire danger across Texas and the potential for a flood risk this weekend, Gov. Greg Abbott is activating more state emergency response resources Friday.

This week in 1988: 1,000+ ACT UP demonstrators shut down the FDA headquarters, demanding (and eventually winning) action on developing HIV/AIDS treatments. ACT UP's militant and creative actions always included powerful visual artwork, and paved the way for movements in the decades to come.
A photograph from the 1988 ACT UP demonstration outside the FDA. Many people are participating in a die-in on the front steps, holding mock tombstones with messages like "RIP - killed by the FDA" and "Dead from lack of drugs." A line of police officers (some with classic 80s mustaches) wearing riot helmets stands between them and the building; one cop wearing white gloves is walking through the demonstrators. Affixed to the 2nd story windows of the building is a series of posters and a large blank banner reading Silence = Death.

When ppl hate you for loving what you do and being proud of who you are, you know you're doing shit right cuz they have no reason to be angry about it other than dealing with their own insecurity.

you guys gotta prepare yourselves for real on what you will do when an ICE raid happens in front of you. remember SALUTE when reporting. REPORT IMMEDIATELY! call the hotline BEFORE you post on social media, BEFORE you text your friends, BEFORE you engage with ANY state or federal officers.

The next few months need to resemble the 2017 fight to save the ACA. In the end, we won. Call Congressmembers, confront them at town halls, offices, airports & fundraisers. Hold events so Congressmembers look really bad for being afraid of constituents.
Let's show up. Let's organize. Let's win.

I feel this. My advice: pick your favorite scene you have in your head. Write that out. Look at the word count. That can give you a baseline as to what you can add before/after that to set up & finish off the action.

On the eve of my carpal tunnel release, my hand & wrist helpfully remind me why I'm doing this. 😰

Current-borne, wave-flung, tugged hugely by the whole might of ocean, the jellyfish drifts in the tidal abyss. The light shines through it, and the dark enters it.
