The midnight delicatessen twins struck again. Woke up to a delivery of baked goods and a box of quiche. I’m so sad they’re leaving.

Two years ago we published TWENTY-EIGHT, a collection of stories from the Section 28 generation. Edited by @kestr.al and containing works from 28 incredible contributors, this book is an important look at the impact of the UK's "don't say gay" law. www.reconnectingrainbows.co.uk/books/twenty...

A banner image that reads contains the review quote "... a new kind of history" and features an image of the book 'Twenty-Eight'. Below this are the words "Twenty-eight stories from the Section 28 Generation. In bookshops and online 1st February 2023".

Couldn’t sleep so went for a not-even-5am jog, followed by sauna. Now, less excitingly, I’m off to the dentist 🫠 On balance, not a bad start to my year. #lunarnewyear #yearofthesnake

If you’re not familiar with the Nazis Aktion T4 program, please look it up. Too many folks forget that Hitler targeted disabled people first. No one spoke up, and rampant ableism means little has changed in 80 years. Centre disabled people in your resistance planning. We can help.

Limped up to a high intensity gym session with my walking stick. Explained the nerves in my left side weren’t working properly. Coach just took it on and adapted, no fuss. Just got me sweating. This is the way. #disabled #gymrat #migraine #eds #pots #whoknowswhatthefuck

A friend saw our collab poetry pamphlet in a bookstore in New York & I felt it a perfect time to remind you: you can buy this bundle of queer, trans rage & joy here punkdust.com/not-your-orl... “Here is a book that deserves a place in the archives of liberation literature.” lisa minerva luxx #poetry

A flash fic for our times. I am imagine quite a lot of people, particularly those who have to liaise with a certain president, are also asking the question, "We're supposed to talk to meat?" (Link to They’re Made Out of Meat by Terry Bisson)

Tried my new magic beans (Rimgepant) which are meant to help when the magic stab pen’s effectiveness wane and… I just woke after a 2 hour nap? A trip to the White Lodge? Alien abduction? Less discombobulated, more feeling akin to what many abductees describe in the X-Files.

I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike

@jpseabright.bsky.social and I had our @eff-able.bsky.social subs meeting yesterday evening to decide on our final list of poems for the anthology (woo!), and Maine decided to help… by eating some of the poems* 👌🏼 *We did not allow this to impact our decision making. #QPoetryComrades #poetry

While I have the warm & fuzzies that 30 drag kings just followed me, George the Dragon is on hiatus, suspected dead. I love drag, but my disabled body takes weeks to recover, & this year other projects like @eff-able.bsky.social take priority. Solidarity, handsomes. Here’s to more accessible shows.

We fought the landlord for the twins upstairs who have mice and a broken roof and they knocked on our door at MIDNIGHT with FANCY BREAD and QUICHE and I never went from horror-movie ready to delighted so quick.

Migrating here from *the other place* has been an adjustment, but one made seamless by the North Star that is Joanne Harris’s shednanigans.

No one can figure out why, since the start of a pandemic, the number of people needing disability benefits has increased. *Jim from The Office looks to camera* It’s also wild how so many struggle to get benefits despite needing support. I just spent £49 on 2 pills, TWO, so I can function to work.
