A jolly sign on the side of an truck done in ye old multi colour primaries of the old Google logo featuring a cartoon man pushing a wheelbarrow that reads "topsoil4u"
I know a lot of people are too cowed to say anything, but I think it's disgusting that tops are taking advantage of the closure of the straits of hormuz to sell price gouged oil to bottoms like this.

I know this isn't exactly kosher, but could someone update my Wikipedia entry to be my real name ("Josephine Riesman") and not my interim name from RINGMASTER?
"Josephine" is my official name in the new edition of TRUE BELIEVER and in corporate copy for @beckbook.com, so you can cite those pages!!!

It’s inaccurate to say Mario is brave and Luigi is cowardly
Luigi is afraid of death, so he runs away from danger. Mario is afraid of living, so he runs towards death. Both brothers are cowards in their own way
this is fucking nuts:
Holy shit.
Wrestling turned me cis, then it turned me trans In the ring, vulnerability is everything by Josephine Riesman -- March 29, 2023
You may enjoy this essay about pro wrestling and gender that I wrote when RINGMASTER came out in 2023:

FOLKS! HUGE NEWS!!
You can FINALLY buy the deluxe ~transed~ edition of my first book, TRUE BELIEVER!
They finally sold out of the old print run, so now is the time to buy a paperback with my true name, additional material, and no cover blurbs from monsters (who shall remain nameless)!

"I felt the ballpeen glow"
There are two kinds of trans millennial: (1) The kind who soothed their panic attacks as closeted teens by listening to bleeps and bloops, and (2) the kind who did the same listening to real loud guitars. Like, I'm talkin' ballpeen-hammer-to-the-skull-loud guitars. Not me tho; I was a bleep-blooper
i think a cool thing is that every time some right winger is revealed to have, let’s say, a non-normative sexuality, i get to hear what liberals really think about me but feel they can’t voice :)

A photo of a television paused on a scene from TWIN PEAKS where the giant’s head is just out of frame and a cat has popped its head up from behind so it looks like its head is on the giant’s body.
IT IS HAPPENING, AGAIN.
Bonefields By Jay Hulme When you die, they say, we'll know who you truly were; vultures of morality, picking us out of ourselves. Perverse sky burial, bodies stretched out on sky towers of hatred. No ritual in this but the pain. This will not be how it ends. I refuse my uncreation. These wings become me; this splintering holds me. My marrow returns to the sky, the earth, the creation from whence I came. They say once, my atoms were birds; they become so again. They say stars. I say vultures. When we lay down together in the bone fields of despair you must tell me: how can you fear an ending that's the same as where you began?
I am often to be found caring for the unknown dead, who emerge, shattered, from their ancient and forgotten graves. Collecting them, burying them, praying them back to their rest. It makes me think, sometimes, of the transphobic refrain that in a thousand years our bones will somehow betray us.
Have you played the demo? Is it any good? I'm a sucker for card games and the original but my non-information hunch was that it wouldn't work. Delighted to be wrong however...
This is an incredible achievement, you have to give him massive props
On the day that It Happens, some queer indie wrestling promotion is gonna become legendary by filming their best transgender wrestler on the mic at a show, as they perform a reimagining of this promo:
"The shore was calm. Too calm. The low tide line beckoned with a tumble of forgotten treasures. The high tide line was barren. That's when it struck me. High tide should have happened hours ago Someone had stolen the moon."

I was working in a comic shop when this came out and reading everything I could. The kind of free-wheeling comics consumption when you have access to limitless free stuff and are trying to find your taste coupled with acres of free time.
And I quit it after 5 issues.
