As promised, I matched the donation amount of $56 to True North Aid for the Indigenous communities evacuated due to wildfires. You can join me in donating directly: truenorthaid.ca

A screenshot of the confirmation email from True North Aid that reads: Hi Jasmine, thank you for your generous donation of $57.98. Thank you! Your gift to True North Aid's Emergency Fund will go directly to support relief efforts for evacuees of wildfires. You are making a difference!

my brain has been kicking my brain's ass this week because I had an idea for an essay after one of the latest AI-in-fiction dramas and then *I missed two other AI-in-fiction dramas* and then an essay came pouring out of me and I think I only got four hours of sleep last night so anyway hold this

We can be blunt here: the industry does not care, has never cared, and *cannot* care about marginalised writers. But it does care about marginalised *fiction*. It cares about marginalised fiction as if Marginalisation is a genre, and it does so because it is. The industry has, on both ends — from the place of well-meaning white cishet able-bodied gatekeepers who really do want to make space for stories from perspectives they cannot imagine, and from the dens of 'anti-woke' pundits railing against an apparent dilution of art or culture — absolutely created a genre that can only be described as Marginalised Fiction. That is, the literary industry cares deeply about fiction that it can view through a margin-frame: fiction identified first and foremost by its ability to perform the assumed bona fides of marginalised authenticity, at least enough for people on the outside, if not based on rigid definitions of radical art that are policed from both within and without the culture itself. Stories that are Black *because* they're about racist microaggressions, violent neighbourhoods, fractured family lives, and identifiable artifacts of culture. Stories that are non-American *because* they telegraph rural tribal community, strong ancient culture, and tension with the outside world. Stories that are queer *because* they play with grotesque bodies, intense sexual exploration, or the bittersweet revelations of sex as desire or violence. Stories that are disabled *because* they paint images of frail bodies or frayed minds severed from reality through drugs, machinery, or just a lack of access to their own effort. Stories that are immigrant *because* they are about being alienated by language, forging new communications with locals, and fearing the hovering sword of state violence. The industry *loves* that shit.

A brown femme with assymeteical side-undercut curly hair, a textured tanktop and jewelry stands in the foreground with their eyes closed and hands over their heart, tears glistening down their cheeks. Behind them is a large anatomical heart with the texture of tree bark and big leaves growing out of it. Line art of flowers and leaves frame the figure and the tree-heart. The word "exhale" is written in a little bubble at the bottom of this preview. Drawn by the artist Dhiyanah Hassan.

#ArtRepostJuly 31. Favorite 'Another Beacon,' 2025, watercolor & hand-drawn digital. This one has a special place in my heart (& my spine/back pain, lmao, in an endearing well-what-can-ya-do way) 🦯🌱🌸 Prints here: www.inprnt.com/gallery/bydh... #art #bsnm #DisabledArtists #SFFart #SupportArtists

A brown femme in pastel green tanktop and red batik sarong with black curly hair in a bun is on the floor next to their walking stick. Vegetation with white flowers grow from her back, leaves trailing down her legs from her spine. A fluffy cream-colored cat walks up to her. Her back is facing the viewer. In the background is a golden and pink moon with crescents and stars in the shape of the spine-flowers glittering in the fantastical sky above. Framing the scene is an ornate Arabesque border. Hand-drawn and painted by the artist Dhiyanah Hassan.

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

We just had to take on $10,000 of debt so on top of my regular pet portraits I'm gonna offer some quicker versions at half price: $50 for a 9x12 or $100 for 12x16 in this style. DM me to grab a spot, I'm only going to take a handful to start with. And please share if you can!

Yeah, so I am nonbinary and I make a historical dark urban fantasy comic with a nonbinary (bisexual) MC about traumatized monster hunters looking for closure. It launches July 23rd! And that’s my official nonbinary awareness week post. Please be aware of Callow Hearts, Hollow Bones.
