Hello, I’m Silas, and I’m a costume fabricator and alterations specialist based out of LA. I’ve worked on The Mandolorian, Fableman, Shazam 2, and others, and I’m barely staying afloat.

I’m a trans person, as well as a hard worker and lover of my craft. But things are dire.

U.S. Catholic bishops recently banned trans care throughout the church's sprawling healthcare systems.

@davidforbes.bsky.social delves into how this fits the institution's long history of hatred and abuse, a direction that has not changed despite its recent p.r. shifts.

Went through The Works of Vermin by @hironennes.bsky.social and I have to read through it again- has some incredible twists and turns. After reading Leech I cannot wait to hear what they write next.

Also, the narrators on both audiobooks knock it out of the park.

Fell in love with lolita fashion. Found out via cosplay. Lolita is fucking expensive. Figured I'd make stuff myself. Got involved with high school theater to get better at sewing. Went to community college, hated everything. Realized I was a guy. Applied to art school during recession. /contd

Started You Weren’t Meant To Be Human by Andrew Joseph White and…congrats, you have finally written a horror novel that hits the spot of “this is fucked up enough that I cannot recommend it readily” and “this is so good I can’t stop” and I have a lot of thoughts. And will have more.

One of the best things is showing your partner something related to their special interests and letting them go off about it passionately and watching their entire being light up with joy and excitement

Mamdani going so hard for trans right and winning is some juicy proof that every dem that abandoned us didn’t do it for politically advantageous reasons. They did it because they’re transphobes and they will lose for it

My coworkers are of a generation above me and are trying to say that we absolutely need a white man to get elected because no other candidate will look like a president and I’m having a staircase wit the day after and want to read them of Zoe Leonard’s ‘I want a president’

Guillermo del Toro on wealth: "a wealthy man is a man who has enough, not a man that needs more. If you have enough to invite someone for a beer? You're rich. If you have a yacht, planes, islands, and you still need more? You're not rich."

If you were at the No Kings events, please wear a mask for the next few days.

Covid is not over.

You can infect others before you feel symptomatic.

People are losing their healthcare. They’re losing their food assistance. They’re losing housing.

We need to protect each other.
