One thing I wish people would realize is just how central JK Rowling is to the entire anti-trans ecosystem. Looking at a network node analysis of the top 200 anti-trans X accounts, she is the most central figure spanning both sides of the Atlantic from Republicans to Labour.
A network graph visualization on a dark background showing connections between various accounts. The central, highly connected node is labeled "J.K. Rowling," with lines radiating out to many other nodes color-coded by region (UK, US, etc.). A detail panel on the right displays stats for her account, including her role as "Author & commentator," an in-degree of 153, an out-degree of 84, and 14 million followers.A scatter plot graph on a dark background comparing accounts based on "followers (log)" on the x-axis and "in-degree" on the y-axis. The data points are color-coded by region. J.K. Rowling is highlighted as a major outlier in the top right corner, possessing the highest number of followers and the highest in-degree. Other labeled points lower on the graph include various politicians, individuals, and campaign organizations.

On this Sunday morning 26th of July we woke up to see the horrible news of what had happened in Berlin last night.
Our hearts are with the Berlin LGBTQAI+ community and everyone one affected by the events.

In this dark time we stand by the Berlin community. There are no words to express our grief and shock. The cowards who do such evil acts will not silence us.

The best way for art to be seen is by interacting with people/artists meaningfully and sharing other people's work. You cannot just post your stuff and run and expect people to repost it, unless you have a very large following already

Ah, my disaster three, when Rei and Chiyo see Eru for the first time. 🥰 This takes place a couple years over a millenia before I kick things off in my regularly scheduled broadcasting. #WIPSnips #WritingCommunity
"I do not trust them," I spat. 
Rei was quick to agree with me, until he patted my shoulder several times to get my attention, breaking my rising anger. "But Chi! Look! Look! There's someone young like us!" he excitedly said under hushed breath as he hooked his arm under mine and tugged me closer so I could better follow where he was pointing.
He was correct. Hiding poorly behind a man that was middle aged compared to the others was a thin young man perhaps two or three sun taller than Rei with tousled white hair he covered half of his face with. 
The longer we watched these newcomers unpack, we found that if Rei and I could describe him in a single word with how nervous he was, it would be pure.

The party doesn’t end til it ends! From “The Sole of Discretion”. #WiPSnips
“Just how long has this party been going on?” A Quick Look around and she could see that pretty much everybody was, indeed, ‘wasted’.

“At a guess? Forty-two years, give or take. It’s difficult to keep track of time because …” He sniggered, hand rising to cover his nose and mouth before raising his voice and leaning back to address the other party-goers. “… it’s always party time here!”

“Party time!” The crowd chorused and Demi had started to hate the very concept of parties, because it made people into idiots.

Still, this was a monumental level of idiocy that she had previously never encountered. A forty-two year long party? How could that possibly work? Where did the alcohol come from? What did they eat? Each other? New arrivals? The guards? And why did her first thoughts turn to these people becoming cannibals? There had to be other ways to survive without resorting to eating the flesh of someone you had recently shared a daiquiri with. Regardless, they had managed to make their way into the prison station without getting shot, incinerated or, yet, eaten. That only meant they had a toehold on the station. The rest of the place may not be so laid-back.

The #WIPSnips word for May 24 is "warn" My manuscript begins with a letter from the protagonist to her wife who has passed away. In the second part that I am currently writing there are no warnings yet. #WritingCommunity #WriteSky #AmWriting #Skywriters #Authors #Writers #sapphicfic
Screen capture of text from manuscript of "Darkness of Helsinki" as follows:
 Somehow I made it to the end of the isle. I know your mother and father looked at me across the isle with all of their contempt to me showing in their faces. I had the other side row all to myself and there was a single red rose waiting for me. As I sat down I saw the pastor look at me slightly baffled. I had warned her that there would be animosity towards me and I guess I really did not look like the typical widow, but I was the widow nevertheless. I think she did not completely comprehend it all when we talked. 
I sat motionless through the ceremony, just wanting it to end, and for my turn to begin. I hated sitting through this religious ceremony, but it was your wish. We both knew when you had to be hospitalized that it would be where you would die, in that cursed hospital, I had had no choice but to  promise you this and then to follow it through. Finally the pastor signaled for me and said that the widow will say few words.

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality
[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]

Iconic Pillars of Creation. MIRI + NIRCam composite image. 🔭 🧪
Semi-opaque layers of blue, purple, and grey gas and dust start at the bottom left and rise toward the top right. There are three prominent pillars. The left pillar is the largest and widest. The background is orange near the top and dark blue and purple near the bottom. Some blue and white stars dot the overall scene.

i can’t fix anything that’s going on right now, but i can show you some beauty that’s out there… 🌌✨
Many stars crowd the image, shining in shades of white, blue, and orange, and more closely concentrated at the center.Bright blue stars are in a cluster at the center of the image. They are surrounded by a shell of brownish and burnt orange dust and gas. The shell has ridges that reach towards the stars like teeth. Stars within the dust and gas are hidden from Hubble but visible to Webb in the infrared. A number of more distant galaxies also appear in the background.Ferocious stellar winds, likely from the bright blue star at the top of the image, are blowing through a curtain of dust. The fine dust scatters the starlight at blue wavelengths. Farther down, another bright, super-hot star shines through filaments of obscuring dust, looking like the Sun shining through scattered clouds. A diagonal string of fainter accompanying stars looks reddish because dust is filtering starlight, allowing more of the red light to get through. The bottom of the picture presents a keyhole peek deep into the dark nebula. Hubble captures the reddish glow of ionized hydrogen. It looks like a fireworks finale, with several overlapping events.Fluffy tan-colored nebula clouds, with rust-colored highlights, surround a black central area. Within that area, the focal point of the image is one large yellow star with eight long thin points. To the right of this star is a bright star cluster in an oval shape. The stars within the cluster look like tiny pale blue sparkles. The cluster is more densely packed at its core and scatters outward. Towards the bottom of the image, multiple arms appear to spiral out of a cloudy tan knob. Taken together, the structures resemble a spider or a squid. Other blue and yellow eight-pointed stars, as well as distant galaxies, are dotted throughout the image. Credits: NASA, ESA, CSA, STScI, Webb ERO Production Team
