I don’t have enough paid sick days left to call in sick on Oct. 8 to stay home & read Dylan Morrison’s latest book, so I will be a grownup about it (this time) (unlike the last time)

I must note that Dylan's other books were funny and likeable and I have reread them more than once.

My next book, Comfort Read, is out October 8th! It's a queer fake dating romcom full of heart and feelings and a bookstore cat and people (but never cats) making fools of themselves. I'm awful at talking about my books so here some of the early reviews in which other people talk about it instead 😄

yeahhhh the dark forest theory is a stone cold bummer. i think of my fave alternative as the Prime Directive theory: that whatever else is out there, it tries not to see or be seen by us to avoid influencing our development before we're ready, due to a deep respect/love for life of all kinds

can you lure flies out of your home by turning OFF all the interior lights, turning ON an exterior light, holding the door open and waiting for them to fly out? yes. will doing so make every witness laugh at you? also yes. does this method essentially make you a butler for flies? i mean... a bit...

"you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain" wrong. nonsense. shut up. if you stay alive, insist on kindness, and never stop looking for opportunities to help others, you might just live long enough to see yourself become dolly parton

while they're at it, they should consider creating some sort of agency to monitor our food production systems. maybe one that researches, crafts and enforces best-practice food handling regulations designed to prevent the spread of dangerous bacteria & parasites? and... shit, wait. hang on a second

sometimes being trans is hilarious: few weeks ago i went to grab a sandwich, and i recognized the dude behind the counter from a place i used to eat like 10yrs ago. i asked if he'd worked there, he said yeah, i said i used to go there and it was nice to see him, he said thanks. end of convo. nbd. 🧵

Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch

“That’s how we work, see? None of the cadres knows about the other ones!”
“Really. Do they know about you?” said Vimes.
For a moment, Reg’s face clouded.
“Pardon?”
“Well, you said you don’t know about them,” said Vimes. “So . . . do they know about you?” He wanted to add: You’re a cell of one, Reg. The real revolutionaries are silent men with poker-player eyes and probably don’t know or care if you exist. You’ve got the shirt and the haircut and the sash and you know all the songs, but you’re no urban guerrilla. You’re an urban dreamer. You turn over rubbish bins and scrawl on walls in the name of The People, who’d clip you round the ear if they found you doing it. But you believe.

yeah, look, fascism is "if you give a mouse a cookie." or, if you prefer, "if you let a mouse take a cookie on what it falsely insists are rational and/or moral grounds." convincing yourself that a few concessions will appease them is a trap; in fact, all it does is prove you're willing to concede

trans people will also continue to be around your whole life. you'll be sharing bathrooms & communities w/ us your whole life; we'll be there whether you know we're trans or not. this horrific moment will eventually pass but transness will not, and our memories of how you act now will also remain

my new book, SECOND HELPINGS, is out tomorrow; what better time to show you the gorgeous cover for my next one? COMFORT READ comes out in october, and it's an extravaganza of fake dating, cozy bookshop vibes, hollywood chaos, an opinionated cat, and, of course, big queer joy 🌈 geni.us/1579-al-aut-ch

The cover for COMFORT READ by Dylan Morrison against an illustrated backdrop of stacked books. The cover depicts two men in bookshop, one passing another a book from atop a ladder that's leaning against the shelves. A large orange cat stands at the feet of the man on the ground.

PANEL 1: MATTIE is talking to a MAN IN A SUIT. Behind them is a huge grey cube. Both are yelling the whole time.
MATTIE: HEY, WHAT'S THAT?!
SUIT: OH, THE ECONOMY CUBE?! IT DOESN'T REALLY DO ANYTHING! BUT WE NEED THEM. EVERYWHERE! OR ELSE!

PANEL 2: A cleaner shot of the cube, heat haze emanating off of it. Many more dot the horizon behind it. MATTIE and the SUIT frame the panel.
MATTIE: THEY'RE QUITE LOUD! AND HOT!
SUIT: OH, VERY. MANY BIRDS WILL DIE!

PANEL 3: MATTIE, looking at the SUIT.
SUIT: WITHOUT THEM, THE WORLD ECONOMY COLLAPSES! DON'T YOU WANT TO BUY STUFF.
MATTIE: I WAS BUYING STUFF LAST YEAR NO PROBLEM WITHOUT THOSE THINGS. WHAT HAPPENED?

PANEL 4: The SUIT points at MATTIE. Two other PEOPLE IN SUITS creep in, brandishing weapons.
SUIT: WELL I'VE TRIED EVERYTHING…
SUIT: SHE HATES THE CUBE, GUYS!
SUIT 2: UHHHHH DON'T YOU LIKE SHOPPING?
SUIT 3: PUT HER IN A CUBE!

Hey so if you're in the USA, the FCC is floating the idea of making shows put a warning up if they include or discuss trans people and trans lives. A short paragraph saying this is messed up would help a lot! You gpt less than a week. Submit your comment by May 22: www.fcc.gov/ecfs/filings...

In a Public Notice released on April 22, 2026, the FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to "transgender and gender non-binary programming" and "the discussion or promotion of gender identity themes."

this is a distinction i try to draw as often as possible: being trans is great! so interesting, so eye opening, so rewarding! a lottery win, both in terms statistical rarity of experience and how much unique joy it brings to your life! it is TRANSPHOBIA that sucks shit, not being trans itself

I think about this comic all the time.

Comic by drawer of drawings on Instagram. A detective stands in a kitchen that looks like it's splattered with blood. The detective says, mother of god. Nothing human could have done this. In the bottom panel it says, earlier. And there is a dog uneasily holding a ketchup bottle with its paws trying to put ketchup on a hamburger.

people who love conflict are almost always more visible than those who hate conflict, bc the conflict-haters avoid conflict. however, people who hate conflict nearly always outnumber those who love it, and just don't want to fight about it. this is the source of many problems across much of society
