Also, I just want to point out that I read the original Frankenstein as prep for this book.

And it actually ended up relevant.😆

Thinking about the fact there's a highway right near my girlfriend's apartment that, if you cross it, leads to a whole bunch of parking lots and a drive through burger place next to a skyscraper. And all this just outside downtown:

A mess of highway interchanges and warehouses.

I hate cis anthropologists I hate cis anthropologists I hate cis anthropologists I hate cis anthropologists

Muxes identify with lo femenino or
what is feminine and many dress in traditional female attire, but they are not gen-
erally seeking to be transgender, or to be accepted as women.

The gay men I interviewed were even more emphatic and quick to differentiate
themselves from muxes. Mario, an articulate twenty-four-year-old gay man, for
example, said that
For me a muxe is a man who identifies as a woman and likes to dress like a woman. I
am not muxe. I am gay because I have never wanted to dress like a woman or to be one.
They work in female trades. I know I am a man.

Still have the idea for an agender character who just doesn't want to break everyone's hearts when folks think they're a trans woman, so they start HRT and such.

For ONE(1) dollar you can have one of my favs from 2025! here are the hyper specific boxes it checks for me:

✔️If you wanted to love Locked Tomb but couldn't with the writing

✔️If you enjoyed Dune but wanted it to be gayer

✔️If you are super into shieldmaidens

✔️If you love spooky bitches with PTSD

Just a reminder that anti-queer and anti-trans policies aren't actually popular.

JUST IN: The Republican Mayor of Fairbanks, Alaska’s second biggest city, lost re-election last night to a Democrat.

Mayor David Pruhs is a conservative who fought protections for LGBTQ+ residents; he made comments this year drew condemnation this year from Alaska Natives. He lost to Mindy O'Neall.

you'd think a prominent news outlet like the New York Times might mention that "antifa" isn't an actual organization in a long story about antifa, but nope!

and the subhead helps props up a false claim this professor was up to something seedy as something up for debate

NYT headline: "Rutgers Expert on Antifa Tries to Flee to Spain After Death Threats"

subheadline: "Mark Bray was teaching courses on antifascism. Turning Point USA accused him of belonging to antifa, which he denies. His flight to Spain was canceled abruptly on Wednesday night."

Hopefully UK voters are smart enough to actual trust the polls for that. Here in Canada the NDP have suffered from losing votes to the Liberals which benefits the Tories even when they're polling well ahead of the Liberals just because people are convinced 'the NDP can't win'.

fiction is a safe space to think of unsafe things

if you feel it's messing you up, step away. don't assume it's messing everyone up and you need to eradicate it because you caught a case of the feel-bads from something. go sit with that and think about why instead of pissing in everyone else's cheerios.

Assigned the horror movie role of 'the girl with big titties'. While being flat as a board in reality.

When I was in uni I was out with some mates and one asked how many pages was my lab class paper. "What paper?" quoth I. "The one that's due tomorrow?" said he.

I wrote twentyish pages with graphs and numbers and calculations from 9 pm to 6 am while half buzzed (I was in a pub when I realised),

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

wrote 20 pages on Faulkner's The Bear four hours before final papers were due on trucker pills and coffee and cigarettes and got an A, fuck you.
You people couldn't hang with real slackers.
