The Madleen and her crew are expected to reach Gaza by Monday. The bravery and love for humanity it took to board another freedom flotilla after the last one was attacked will be studied and admired for ages. May their love spread across the world. May their journey be protected ✨🙏🏼

I don’t fight fascism expecting it to go away tomorrow. I fight fascism so it does not change me today.

The scariest thing to facism is a dreamer. Someone who can dream of a better, more just path forward. Someone who recognizes in themselves the power to change things.

I don’t want to colonize Greenland. I want fully funded libraries, schools, museums, national and state parks.

I recently learned that people call trans girls at this particularly well known all boys Catholic school in Bangkok “Naang Fah” or angels. There’s so much beauty in a society that calls its trans girls angels and I think we should normalize calling our own trans girls angels too 🏳️‍⚧️💕

4 of my books—Reset, Preset, Freeset, and Shadow Play—were stolen to feed Meta AI. There is currently a class action lawsuit by the Authors Guild on behalf of all authors whose books were illegally used by Meta. Here’s the link to see if yours is on the list. www.theatlantic.com/technology/a...

Why are you so political, Sarina? Books. My books. Your books. All the books. Why do you think they try so hard to get rid of books? #authorsagainstbookbans #booksarepolitical

Happy International Women's Day! Trans women are women. All women’s rights are intertwined. Our bodies do not belong to the government. There are 50% of us.

Just a reminder that there will be a 24-hour economic blackout nationwide this Friday, February 28. No purchase unless from a small business. No gas. No fast food. No Amazon. No Target. No Walmart. No corporate spending. We want them to see that we have the power. Please spread the word.

It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out. They gut the FAA. Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted. Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.

If you wanted to cut waste, fraud, and abuse, you would empower the inspectors general. If you wanted more waste, fraud, and abuse, you would fire them.

Naritasan Shinsho-ji Was lucky enough to witness the famed ogoma prayer, a Buddhist fire ceremony that has been held here daily since its founding over a thousand years ago 🔥 It felt so peaceful in that room, listening to the chant, and watching fire burn away earthly desires.

At a drag club in Bangkok for book research and Leroy Church, a Lion King Broadway singer was in the audience. Then he sang for us “The Circle of Life” 😱 I LOVE my life

Public toilets. Why is something so important often under-appreciated? In Japan, public toilets are a symbol of hospitality, so I made it a point to visit some of Shibuya’s renowned architect-designed toilets.

Hear me out. What if we writers move into one neighborhood. Within walking distance are bookstores, libraries, tea & coffee shops, and a community garden. And once a week we gather to write at each other’s place and cook together using ingredients from the garden. Just a thought.

I’m hopeful. At the People’s March I saw so many people holding signs, yelling for freedom—from fascism, from genocide, from the destructive hands of imperialism, colonialism, and capitalism. Lines are being drawn, connecting all of our issues to each other. We are all on the same side. Keep going.

It’s important to know that a lot of productive activity is happening in person and offline, too. Not all of it can be broadcast online, but we’ve had hundreds of people showing up to our trainings, mobilizations, and more. Keep going. Tyranny is eroded by a sea of small acts. Everything matters.

Writing is an act of rebellion. Writing is an act of creation. Writing is an act of salvation. Writing is an act of exploration. Writing is an act of emotion. Writing is an act of confession. Writing is an act of speculation. Writing is an act of reflection. Keep writing.

Most people don’t change unless it’s too painful not to. We’re reaching a tipping point as a society. Change is coming.

Me, in the throes of draft 2. Easy peasy. Not. As always I’m finding inspiration and peace in the woods. We miscalculated how long it would take to hike the whole trail and ended up in the dark half way through. Is this an analogy for writing or what?

My butterfly poem on the butterfly app 🦋 When the monarch butterflies make their migration, they carry with them ancestral memory of a home they’ve never seen. No border. No four hour traffic. No passport check. No SENTRI pass. No police with machine guns. Just bodies that remember.
