Hey moots, I know a lot of y'all write wonderful stories with trans characters, so now's your time to shine. Show us what you've got and I'll try to RS when I'm awake and not in immense pain. :D

Man, I just can't be transphobic. Even as a Weird, Black Girl, it was always the pre-trans girls who made friends with me and taught me being weird was okay and the pre-trans boys who taught me to be tough. They saw my weird kid humanity, so being a shitty adult to them is the ultimate betrayal

Shout out to the red and white Dutch Angel Dragon who saw me looking down bad and just came to squeak at me and give me a hug. This trip has been physically agony because my condition isn't being controlled, so I in a wheelchair when I leave my room and mind-warping pain. That kindness made my week.

So, I put "Peach Thief" as my badge name for NFC and because that's my only name for them, I'm now being called "Peach Thief" and I dunno if I should change it or not. 😋

Once again asking Furry Visiual Novel writers to incorporate other sexualities and genders in the visual novels. I can write decently well and have some skills writing for visual novels, TTRPGs, and even anthologies in the fandom if y'all are so lost. #FurryWriting #FurryAuthors #FVN

For everyone that tells people with chronic invisible illnesses that they "look fine", I wish I could show them what a flare looks like for me and how debilitating it can be. I'm not really able to walk well now because it's affecting my tailbone/spine. It's agony, yet not an every day thing.

Today's agenda: get closer to finishing this editing project and closer to ending that 7500 word story that's moved closer to 10k. I've got like 3.5 hrs to do that in before I have to make some dinner. Wish me luck. :3

Woof. Wow, does editing the grammar and punctuation of a story make it flow better and so much easier to read. This one story was a bit painful to read before I started removing errant commas, semi colons, and periods in the middle of sentences.

Can someone come and drag me to the kitchen to make dinner? I'm tired and not really feeling it, but I need to eat something with vegetables and sustenance. Yep, just grab me bad leggy and drag me on in there to start chopping veggies.

HEY FOLKS. If you think the immigration crisis in Europe is COLONIALISM IN REVERSE then I will gently suggest you rethink that stance. Like. Think about what colonialism is, and what that word means. Really... really think about that. Then think about the phrase "colonialism in reverse."

Ok. As a 'Skegee alumna, I have a knee-jerk reaction to seeing it called "The Tuskegee Experiment" or "The Tuskegee Incident" because Tuskegee didn't really have much to do with what happened. With COVID stuff, it's popped up a lot followed by a lot of disinformation and heaping anti-Blackness

Gotta love being credited as an "Assistant Editor" on a book you edited in its entirety, all 649+ pages of entirety. Some people are really grimy out here, but that's okay because what goes around, comes around.

To give a broader answer to this: while I'm broadly supportive of furry presses, there are some distinct advantages and disadvantages that writers should be aware of. First the advantages. There's a lot more to publishing a book than just writing the book. (1/?)

I've settled lots of discussion about trans identities by comparing it to adoptive parents. Adoptive parents have all the rights of other parents even though they aren't "biologically" parents. "Mom" and "dad" are constructs just like "man" and "woman" 🤷🏼‍♀️

This, my friends, is a West Orange, NJ favorite, The Italian Hot Dog! Crafted at Jimmy Buffs, it's usually made on some kind of bun with mustard, with 2 all beef hot dogs, sautéed onions and bell peppers, and finally topped with fried, hand-cut potatoes and ketchup. Delicious! 😋

Doing an editing and I just want to scream like Capt. James T. Kirk, saying, "COMMAS!!!" Seriously though, some people use way too many commas. I'm Rusty myself, but commas, like any punctuation mark, have a purpose, and just liberally tossing them onto your prose is like oversalting your food.

I don't get as annoyed by adverbs like a few editors, but I understand why they can be irritating. They really cheapen the sentence and should be used sparingly, tbh. A little heuristic I use (it's not law so YMMV), but I only use them when I need to really modify the verb. 1/
