I'm petty, I'll block anyone that shares anything vaguely Harry Potter related. I unfollowed someone on Goodreads cos it showed them reading one of the books. Get the fuck outta here.

Someone asks me "hey can you do x please?" and I will always, always say "no" while visibly doing x. It never gets old (to me and my partner)

Clarkesworld gave me my first professional publication, and I couldn't be more thrilled to be in their 20yr anniversary issue. Happy birthday, @clarkesworldmagazine.com! And with one of my favourite stories, too: "Roams the Planet of Our Grief," where a trans boy talks to the dead. As one does.

Do not join gambling apps, do not play gambling games, you are not immune to getting roped in. They've spent years perfecting the dopamine drip. Do not walk into the trap of gambling. Getting in is optional, do not get in.

What was this, the second time in a month that leftists gleefully joined in on a harassment campaign initiated by reactionaries against covid cautious people? Seems like that indicates a critical absence in awareness and analysis. Maybe y’all should fix that. And your hearts too.

It’s out today! The autumn equinox brings FALLOW TILL WE BLOOM, my strange T4T romance about trans people trying to rebuild a farm while being haunted by dark spirits only they can see. Stardew vibes, but a little spooky, too. Perfect for your fall reading season!

Three copies of “Fallow Till We Bloom” by Nikki Null sitting on a shelf beside a trans flag. Cover depicts a couple on a farm in autumn, surrounded by chickens.

To me, transmasculine means both binary trans men and any nonbinary person who considers their experience to be trans + linked to masculinity. It's an umbrella term to me - if I know that a more specific term applies to someone then I'd use that but usually I don't have a way to know!

The UK is voting on the Assisted Dying bill today. Most disability organizations oppose it. Safeguards have already been removed or rejected. Please listen to disabled Canadians. What was meant to be dignified quickly became coercive eugenics aimed at the most vulnerable.

This is also me saying that the only way you break cycles of harassment and infighting in trans spaces is to simply refuse to participate. Showing compassion instead of socially punishing each other is really the only way we get past this. Let people fuck up, forgive and love them anyway.

I don't quite have aphantasia or anything, but I think very specifically in words - not in voices, not in images, and when I try to work with images my understanding is very impressionistic. Lots of vibes, basically. Makes it very tricky to follow specifically action/movement in comics

Yes!! I grew up thinking I was poor because my parents continually claimed we had no money. We had money; they'd just decided that it shouldn't be spent on their child's interests. I have less money now than I ever "had" as a child, but because it's MINE my life is a lot richer

Sweet, strange uncitizens: ONCE I WAS MADE OF EARTH is here, an epic fantasy that's been ratling in my brain for years now and that I'm putting out into the world serially outside of the capitalist publishing apparatus. Share, and read, and comment. archiveofourown.org/works/91618061

The painting "The Moment" by James Warden, with the text "Once I Was Made of Earth" on it by Rivers Solomon. The painting is in the romantic style, quite dramatic and dark in tone if not colour, with a horse rearing with fear in its eyes as a snake launches to bite it, against a back drop of pink and blue mountains.

I know we have this conversation all the time but: when marketing a book, please tell me what the book is about. I've been seeing a book around for WEEKS, marketed through its author's identity, and I only learned its genre yesterday. To want to read your book I have to know what it's about.

Within the next year I'll be saving for my own top surgery (after self-funding my own hormone therapy - I've been on a waiting list for over two years now); quietly I'd been hoping not to spend thousands of pounds (£10k+, which is upwards of $13k) on it, but in reality I just... might have to

Find what you want to see - something closer to what you want DOES exist. Ask for recommendations rather than complaining that only one kind of trans fiction is allowed to exist when that demonstrably isn't true.

Loosely nonbinary characters complicit in propping up colonialism. Nonbinary characters seeking revenge against murderers, fighting unknowable monsters in mines, navigating imposed societal standards for their gender. This barely begins to cover what I've read this year alone.

I actually think it's a bit weird to accuse all trans fiction of being "uwu soft beans" when there is SO MUCH trans fiction out there of all kinds if you're willing to look. If you're only seeing soft stuff (which is ALSO GOOD) then you're following the wrong people sorry
