I guess I should also tell y'all the name Stay Awhile, aka: the agoraphobic vampire novella Out October 5th 👍 Come for the weird vampire antics, stay for the totally justified (I think) content warning about meat
A book cover showing 3 red droplets overlaying an Asian man with his arms folded and a scrap of paper obscuring the upper part of his face. On the paper the title Stay Awhile is written in red script

a specific thing i hate about pet loss that i'd forgotten about: the gradual distance, as time passes & you have to start scrolling further & further back in your photos to find them. four weeks today. i miss my boy. i will always miss my boy, from his sweet silly face to his wiggly waggy tail.

So many people want to still consume Harry Potter in a way that gives the transphobe behind it money AND simultaneously be told that they are still good people. This post is for them: You're not, worsties! Hope that helps!

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

if you watch it you tell WB to keep making more Potter stuff and you show them that directly funding JKR’s transphobia, that she LITERALLY uses to strip trans women’s rights away, is not a dealbreaker how could i ever feel safe around someone who buys her the boots she uses to step on my neck?

There is no ethical consumption of Harry Potter. And not in the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" way. In the "your fandom is now comprised of hate symbols" way.

don't get me wrong, the important thing is that #nanowrimo is dead (and stays that way), but it is wild to see people act like embracing ai was the only or main thing that happened to bring that about when there was so much fucked up shit that it took a multi page anonymous document to sum up 🫠
