While I'm mid-crowdfunding (cough cough support igg.me/at/refrank cough), does anyone have questions about crowdfunding for audio drama? Happy to answer! I've done it a lot.

Wouldn't it be cool if someone adapted Frankenstein with an entire cast of trans actors?

Oh hey, we're doing that! But we need your help to fund it!

I'm away for the week, so the boys are bonding.

Would love to chat to some horror influencers/reviews about the Holmwood Foundation. To get Season Two funded we’re going to need a lot of help. Can anyone help? Please like/share!

Glasgow Gender Clinic now has a waiting time of 224 years. The average across the UK is now 25 years.

This segregated system isn’t working and is wasting millions. The NHS has been told time and again - informed consent now.

This amazing article from @vic-parsons.bsky.social via @wearequeeraf.com shows the absolute criminal state of trans healthcare in the UK.

Scotland has a 224 year wait for a first appointment. Yes, you read that right.

If you're in London and swim at Kenwood Ladies Pond, please ensure our trans (and intersex and NB) sisters can keep enjoying the most body-positive, non-judgemental and frankly utopian spaces in the city.

Letting the body police decide who's 'feminine enough' to swim would wreck it for all of us.

The Gender Critical have already inundated this survey with their disgusting views on banning trans people from using the ponds.

Would be a shame if we inundated with trans positive views on not banning trans people.

What’s really crazy is that with everything going on lately, I truly don’t think artists are asking for much. I don’t know a single creative that aspires to be rich, everyone’s aiming for “comfortable”. We just want to work and have our basic needs met and to not have our shit stolen or censored.

This is an appreciation post for @hamishsteele.bsky.social . I just want to say, he's an absolute delight of a human being who I am honored to have chances to talk to. His Dead End Paranormal Park series and DEADENDIA comic series is truly a delight of trans-inclusive & horror nerd storytelling.
