Thanks friend.

Raised a glass this evening to one that will not soon be forgotten. Bruce, it was a pleasure to have known you, to be around your passion and knowledge, and to reconnect before you said goodbye. Safe travels my friend. 🥃

While I like some of the actors in HBO's upcoming Harry Potter series, fuck all of them.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Wow wow wow wow WOW!

A very happy start to October was had by all this weekend at LITTLE GHOSTS 1st (ANNUAL!) FESTIVAL!

You all really showed up for panels, vendors, author readings, and horror short films. We can’t say how much this community means to us- may this free event speak for us.

🙏😭🖤👻📚

One day I'd like to live in a world where Americans realize they are just one of many countries on earth and that not everything is about them or needs to be relatable to them.
