so I started watching nadia: Secret of the blue water, after getting the dvds and the japanese bluray collectors edition. I first saw a trailer for nadia, I think when I was watching some ranma 1/2 vhs tapes way way back. I've been wanting to see it ever since.

for the people on here in the us who have published written works. how do you handle copyright stuff? do you put it on like.... scribble pad or fiction . net without copyrighting with copyright . gov? or do you get a complete draft copyrighted first? or do you go with a different copyright system?

I did a calculation of the exact word count according to MSWord, and this is the total of my current story drafts. total as of 9-21-2026 Books: 18 words: 1,207,860 pages: 10,327 I still have a lot to do though. the target is 1,500,000 words at least and 20 books. such a confidence boost for me :)

1. I was moving my books from a notepad to an msword/open office file, and I realized just how much work I have left to do. I have 9 volumes+ to edit, and approximately 600,000 words to fix the format for. My current format for a lot of my stories are as follows....

A lot of trans people who previously had a sense of stability in their lives have found that suddenly ripped away from them, folks who've had gainful employment suddenly pushed out, facing hostile policy changes. The stress of living through this anti-trans panic is a crushing weight that piles up.

Well, the book I was working on is still being copyrighted, and I'm reasonably assuming that barring testing situations, it's done. So I started working on editing the first book I wrote back in 2021. MSWord says its 83,000+ words, and I still have a lot of work to do on it.

I recently started editing my second book. the first one is in the process of copyrights, the second one, a direct sequel to the first one is approximately 90 pages through the editing process. after I get the text where it makes sense, I'll have to edit again, for consistency and dialogue checks.

Well, after a greatly unfortunate situation at work, I returned to editing my second book. Still waiting on the copyright process for the first book. I finally returned to the second book after finding a copy of MS office pro from 2007 in my archives. oddly, it still works.

To be transgender in our society is to be exhausted. The empowered slander us as perverts and predators while it is their own icons who are convicted in the courts of law. There is not a modicum of introspection amongst them. Only hysteria, projection, and violence. We just want to be left alone.

To clarify my profile passage: Using generative AI is bad. Creating an AI in a videogame is not. The difference is that the AI in a game is set as a simple algorithm used to counter player decisions "If player uses fire spell. Then use ice spell" for a very simple example.

A vital piece of trans allyship is actually in supporting children's rights to bodily autonomy from the out. Someone is complaining their child wants to cut their hair short or grow it long? Point out that it's the child's hair. Why shouldn't they have it how they want it? Why is that parent upset?

if you are uncomfortable with trans people in your spaces, you do *not* have a legitimate safety concern. you are transphobic, and using your personal discomfort to restrict the abilities of someone else, just because *you* aren't *personally* comfortable with it.

panel 1: two young students approach miss zuri, an iranian trans woman and teacher, calling, "miss z! miss z!"
panel 2: one student offers a drawing on a sheet of paper and says, "we saw the digital circus movie and drew girl jax--" the other student, brandishing their own drawing, interrupts with, "--'cause jax is a girl now! she's trans!" the first student concurs, "yeah, she's transgender, just like you!"
panel 3: miss z holds up the papers and examines the drawings thru teary eyes. the students ask, "what do you think?" and in a smaller voice, "... miss z?"
panel 4: smiling and wiping a tear, miss z answers, "i... love them so much. thank you..." her students respond with big smiles and "ofc!"

Desistance and detransition myths are lies designed to create a moral panic and a transphobic backlash. believe trans youth.

Happy #Pride from Portland's all-queer magical girl rock band, Magica Riot! In celebration of Pride, I'm running sales on Itch for my ebooks & audiobooks. Any title is 40% off or get 'em in a discounted bundle! Here's the ebook bundle - the whole adventure so far for $7! itch.io/s/187271/mag...

Artwork of the queer magical girl team Magica Riot, from the novel of the same name. The girls are standing in Waterfront Park in downtown Portland, Oregon, on green grass among pink cherry blossoms wafting in the wind, with a large steel bridge across the river behind them in front of clouds and blue sky. There are five girls - a girl in black and red with short red hair named Sara, a trans girl in purple and black with shoulder-length purple hair named Claire, a trans girl in blue and black with blue twintails named Nova, a Black girl in yellow and black with yellow-hued twist out hair named Cass, and a Japanese girl in green and black with a long green ponytail named Hana. A rainbow with a smaller secondary rainbow is in the distant sky behind the trees.
