#QueerWritersChat looking for connection and companionship and a need to be seen/understood is a core part of pretty much everything i write, so yeah

#QueerWritersChat Rory yearns for connection. The dragon rides wants his life back. The scarred man doesn't yearn for anything.

#QueerWritersChat Hey I'm Simon (trans gay, he/it). Not really working on anything concrete At The Moment, so I'm going to talk about selkie story: Rory is a tailor in a world where magic exists but humans cant do it innately. Things are normal until a scarred man comes in with a tattered fur coat

my job has gotten so overwhelming the past month and people just aren't getting hired to ease everyone's workload not helped by the fact that despite working here for 2.5 years and being the only person really handling this department, i have gotten one raise of One dollar

Not wanting an abuser to be working in a public facing position is not the same as casting them into exile I know it feels that way when you're a fan of their public facing content, but that's kinda why it matters that they shouldn't be in that position It dilutes anything resembling consequence.

The final thing I'll say about this: I do not think Jacob Geller should have a public platform. Anyone arguing that that means he should be tarred and feathered in the public square is disingenuous. He can live a happy life for all I care. But I don't think he should just... Get his soapbox back.

This is kind of a general thought that's been kind of swimming around in the brain: i do believe people can do evil things in their past and change. but i also believe those people should never be in positions of influence, even if its just as an online personality

Extreme horror spaces are way, way too permissive with shit behavior and that lets actual bigots thrive. The one star review was written by someone who reads extreme horror. She had the pretty basic take of "yeah I didn't like how he wrote women" and that means she deserves harassment? Do better.
