Ok so I thought people were over exaggerating on how bad the new season of Euphoria is, but damn. How does a show go from the best writing to the absolute worst?
Not gonna lie, I am a little upset I wasted 2 of my Cinemark credits on this one. At least Michaela Cole’s acting was top tier as usual.

Just in time for No Kings Day! Here’s a piece I wrote for Autostraddle on missed miscarriages, D&Cs, and how reproductive rights are also LGBTQ+ rights.
My Wife’s Missed Miscarriage Reiterated That Reproductive Rights Are LGBTQ+ Rights
Reproductive rights are intertwined tightly with LGBTQ+ rights; they always have been.

AWP was chaotic and wonderful as usual. Happy to connect with so many new writing folks and catch up with friends. Also very pleased with my haul this year - can’t wait to dig in!
Great night and music by #QUEENHD and drinks and connections and readings and fundraiser and friends! #AWP #AWPWRITER @jackiedwrites.bsky.social @nonbinarypapi.bsky.social @jendireiter.bsky.social @driftwoodpress.bsky.social
Also…our offsite reading is an easy 10 min walk from the convention center AND raises money for trans youth. Just sayin’.
If you’re going to #AWP26 and you want to support trans youth and you also love free drinks, save the date!
Spent last week at Sunlit Residency in Ithaca, NY. The residency honors Dr. Su-Je Lee Gage and her dedication to human rights and social justice. I feel so lucky to have had the week to reset and re-focus on my creative work.
No Offense is officially one year old. I’ll never forget the feeling of holding this thing I worked so hard to create in my hands for the first time. This last year has been a whirlwind.
Headed to a writing residency next week and looking for book/essay recs on the theme of “control,” especially in relation to gender, mental illness, death/grief. Can be very specifically related or broadly related. I’ll take whatever ya got!

Georgia Fort's is chilling, and it's being overshadowed by the equally chilling arrest of Don Lemon. A GoFundMe is being set up for Fort. In the meantime, you can support her work directly – without paying massive fundraising platform fees – through her website: www.georgiafort.com/support

And if you can afford it, buy physical copies. Now more than ever, we need to archive what we can. Digital can no longer be trusted. Especially in this day when our own information can be easily modified or deleted. Let’s get back to actually owning things and preserve a library for the future.
Please buy books that are coming out this year. Doesn’t have to be mine. But there is a stellar release calendar this year especially of Black writers and it would be a shame if one of the fascist victories was people not buying those books (from the indies that are in the fight with us). #BookSky
