150,000 marched yesterday in London for trans rights. Opened the Sky News app. Scrolled and scrolled. Nothing. BBC News app. Nothing. Guardian app. Nothing. This is what actual silencing looks like.

Thrilled to share my very short story "Everyone Drinks at Sunrise" published by @pseudopod.org today, alongside some other creepy tales. I especially love the host's commentary. Liberal guilt, it turns out, *is* delicious.

This story drew me in with that first line so quick. Phenomenal writing, the characters are well imagined, and I really enjoyed the MC’s voice. Give it a read if you need a little disturbance to jolt your morning into gear.
