That good “writers should talk honestly about money” post inspired me to calculate how I made my income this year. I made more from writing than usual, but not enough! (I encourage others to do this and post the results!)
51% book
23% writing
11% teaching
8% speaking
7% consulting/brand work

So, I’ve occasionally mentioned it on occasion, but the fact that so many people that fall under the trans umbrella are acting in a way that indicates they genuinely believe binary trans people on HRT owe it to the rest of the community to prioritize their voices above our own is becoming a problem.

One of the best things about working as a writer is that I don't have to put on makeup and a pushup bra to be taken seriously.
i didn’t realize there was legit another “pivot to video” thing happening & i want to write the 5 podcasts i listen to & assure them i will never watch them, not even if i’m stuck in an elevator for so long i have to eat the guy who was trapped with me & i had to kill him for trying to get fresh.

The outrageous sanctioning of EU lawmakers and citizens in order to pressure democratically-elected European governments to change their laws shows just how intent the US government is on controlling Europeans' lives.

This week's US sanctions against European lawmakers and privacy activists is a major escalation. And it shows the dangers of Europe relying on American economic infrastructure.
