I am in Cap Haitien interviewing people deported from the United States. I have been doing this kind of work for almost a decade and it literally does not get more dire than this. People have lost everything they built in the U.S. and are terrified and have no place to go or way to live.

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, author of The Gulag Archipelago, has something to say to us today: “And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: what would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive..."

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand?… The Organs would quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin’s thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt! If… if… We didn’t love freedom enough. And even more—we had no awareness of the real situation… We purely and simply deserved everything that happened afterward.”

– Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago

like, how do i put this... if you're writing a murder mystery, and the intrigue is all about whether someone is a murderer or not, it does not constitute a failure of subtlety if, at the climax of the story, you reveal the evidence that proves who the killer is. in fact it is expected?

i think also we should maybe step back and re-examine the idea that "having the character say the word trans out loud" and "subtle, complex character writing" are mutually-exclusive choices in the first place. like, they're clearly not, right? i think maybe it's bad that we treat it like they are…?

i think we are right to bemoan the state of Media Literacy. but the environment is what it is, you know. if you are writing queer stories, and you want those stories to be legible to a non-queer audience, then at some point you kind of just have to have your characters say the fucking thing out loud

Even in late September 2019, many Hong Kong protestors still believed in non-violent, peaceful protest. Or, at the very least, were willing to give it a try. Sadly, the police were more pro-violence. In nearby areas that day, the police fired tear gas at -- and otherwise attacked -- protestors.

it's important to give the heroes a home. it's also important to give that home a character sheet, so that the players can build it up, make it cute, make it their own. and so that you can attack it. make them fret over it. make them roll dice about it.

Screenshot of a sheet in-progress for a fantasy adventure game called Aryse, showing the Nexus, the home of the characters in the game. The Nexus is an indistinct silhouette of an otherworldly tower surrounded by smaller outbuildings; sections of the structure are labeled, as the Apex, the Tower, the Memorium, the Gatehall, the Satellites, and the Undercroft.

Princeton finally handed off some advance copies for the 2nd Edition of my wasp book, and they look phenomenal! Thank you everyone for your exceptional patience! Go order it right now!! press.princeton.edu/books/paperb...

A photo of me (a white woman with long brownish hair wearing glasses and a dark blue shirt) holding an advance copy of my book "The Social Wasps of North America, Central America, and the Caribbean: Second Edition" in front of an old wooden railing and some lush sassafras leaves. There is a big illustration of a bald-faced hornet on the cover.

This photo is slightly misleading, since it was taken by my mom a year ago in 2025, immediately before we noticed the major printing errors in the plate series that required us to completely redo the printing from scratch. My joy is nonetheless real, and I feel justified in using this photo since I never posted it the first time around. It's all good now!

#CURSEKISSCUTE #2: Name of the Helper, Part II has finally begun! > So WHAT if Nathan Small just got his shit cursed to smithereens by the Femboy Fairy? He doesn’t have TIME for a Gender Situation right now—he’s late for his WEREWOLF ROCK BAND JOB INTERVIEW!! READ IT HERE: → www.dicot.moe/ckc-2 ←

The cover art for CURSE/KISS/CUTE #2: Name of the Helper, Part II by Valerie Halla. On the cover, a smizing wolf-eared woman looks down on the tiny skirt-wearing boy in the palms of her hands. The pouting, sparkling boy emits mars symbols in protest of his smallness and skirt-wearingness.

In the background, a quote from the woman:

“I guess I don’t know what’s going on inside your *head*, Small—but I’ll tell you what I see from out *here*.

*I see a boy who can’t stop apologizing for wearing a skirt.*

What’s up with that?”

Character profiles from CURSE/KISS/CUTE. The text reads:

Nathan Small: A human software engineer fresh out of college and newcomer to the City of Monsters. As a matter of survival, Nathan Small navigates social situations by making himself as uninteresting as possible. This strategy has recently been complicated by a fairy’s curse that turned all his boy clothes into girly-girl girl clothes for girls.

Listen: Don’t read into this too much. In fact, don’t read anything into Nathan Small at all. If this whole skirt situation is making his heart beat funny, maybe that simply means he has a garden-variety cardiac arrhythmia. Didn’t think of that, did you?

Anyway, he has to go interview for a spot in a rock band now, so please just be cool, alright?

Rinne Alexandria “Lexie” Kamitani: Guitarist and lead singer for Dodecadendron, a punky underground rock band. Make no mistake: Lexie Kamitani is Kind Of A Lot. Charismatic, laid-back, and easily amused, her cool exterior belies a remarkably intense individual with a profound passion for truth, love, and art. She exclusively fucks with people who Give A Shit.

Although born a werewolf, she spent her teenage years among humans, during which time she developed her extreme distaste for authority. Most monsters don’t fit neatly into the categories of “cis” or “trans”, but Lexie loudly self-describes as a trans woman.

An excerpt from CURSE/KISS/CUTE. The text reads:

“I lost a bet,” says Nathan to his assembled audience of crickets.

“I lost a *bet*,” he says again, but differently.

“I...*lost a bet*. Actually, the *truth* is, I...lost a bet. Well, see—basically—I lost a bet? *Lost* a bet. Lost a *bet*? Lost...a bet?”

He frowns.

“Oh, you lost a bet? So basically, what you’re saying is that you think wearing a skirt is sort of a, kind of a joke? You don’t get the job. In fact, I’m calling the police. *Idiot.*” He punts a stick twenty feet in the air.

He slides with his back against the wall. “All my clothes fell in a lake. Of fire? My clothes went to hell. So I had to borrow my...sister’s clothes?” He puts his palms together in prayer. “My sister, who has all my same measurements and doesn’t own a single pair of pants...and the bra straps? Um...the bra straps are...tactical?”

His ass touches down in the grass. He pleads to the moon above. “My name is Nathan Small. My name is...Natalie?” He shudders.

He thinks.

He tilts his head.

“Nathan? No, no, no. I said my name was *Nat*. Nat Small. It’s actually unisex.”

He nods, slowly.

The clouds of the moon loom overhead. He watches for a while as they silently storm.

“But the *truth* is,” he whispers, “even though I look like this...I’m actually a *boy*.”

A cricket jumps up his skirt. He shrieks.

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

Turning a minor character in Hard Wired Island into a major one in Second Gig, 3.5 edition (2020 art by @cryodraws.bsky.social, 2025 art by @boaillustration.bsky.social)

A music poster from the Hard Wired Island core book. The poster is advertising a chiptune band called Fizzy Drone and features art of the band's only permanent member, Xue Lao. Xue is a cheerful gal with asymmetrical black hair, a pink beanie, headphones, and a cyan shirt. The right side of her face is cybernetic. Her right eye is pink and probably also cybernetic.

Xue Lao again. Her face is normal now, but both her eyes are glowing electronic pink and she has RCA cables plugged into her neck. Her arms are pink cyberware. She's wearing the beanie, sweatpants, and a tied shirt, so you can see that her lower torso is entirely cybernetic. It's blue and translucent, like an old console. Xue is doing a goofy pose, making peace signs with her hands and smiling with her tongue playfully sticking out of her mouth, so presumably she is happy with the new body situation.
