With more people joining Bluesky, seems like time to do another intro post. I'm a sci-fi writer based in Naarm (Melbourne). If I'm known for anything, it's probably The Voidwitch Saga, which I call astropunk rather than space opera. Repo Virtual is my (lost thanks to covid?) cyberpunk novel.

I've got a little moustache at the mo' because I'm growing it out for electrolysis, and it looks a little cunty. Times like this I wish I was trans non-binary (it would make the hair situation easier to grapple with if nothing else), but I just wanna be a woman. I'm a simple creature 🤷‍♀️

Psychologist earning his hourly rate trying to make me recognise postive things about myself.

There's two weeks left on the Liquid Silver kickstarter... www.kickstarter.com/projects/wor...

There's this weird thing happening in society where, in order to save the arts, the common person will give their hard earned money to anyone but artists.

Everybody say Happy Birthday to @thedescenters.bsky.social, my sweetest love, brilliant collaborator, and a beautiful and kind friend 💜🎉💜

New kaeto for lovers youtu.be/_GZEcje3beU?...

Please talk to me and my son again, please.

I actually fixed this fan with a couple of zip ties this week, and also took my muscle jackhammer apart to remove a broken bit that was rattling around in there (it was kinda load-bearing so I don't know how long the jackhammer will last now). So, yeah, you could say I'm pretty butch.

We are all college girl.

Last night I accidentally took my progesterone after dinner along with my other meds instead of waiting a couple of hours. I needed an early night anyway.

If I was unclear, this is; Authors, Visual Artists & Song Writers Internationally. If the data centre is in Australia; you'd be dependent on the opt out system working/ being enforced, for your copyright to be respected.

Paul Bettany is so charming as Vision it almost makes you forget he jokingly suggested drowning Amber Heard to Johnny Depp

This break up could have been an email.

I'm so sick of the lie that Australia "needs to build more housing"!! You know the only thing that really "needs" constant growth? CAPITALISM Until we make property more difficult to profit from than to live in, we'll never unlock the value in our existing housing stock

All cis people on this site should be nicer to trans people facing existential threats I think. Just imo

A real one of a kind. His work was singular and incredible.

we should all be pissed off at this btw. if not because sex work is legitimate work and should be treated with respect, then because you should be concerned at attempts to gentrify online spaces as pretext to court investors and force out minorities so those spaces can become part of a portfolio.

just checking, how are those bread and circuses coming alo-

there is a litmus test to tell if a person is a fascist or not, and I've spent years refining this down to three factors: their opinions on women, their opinions on sex work, and their opinions on trans women.

Just met another fan!

Over here with my biggest fan.

what do you use brake calipers for, car phrenology? fascist

No darkness lasts forever. And even there, there are stars.

I look like this so my shadow selves can look like that.

This is why I want to better embrace the Frank Ideology...

Kill the utilitarian in your head.

Please talk to me and my son again, please.

He didn't scare the shit out of himself, he shat the scare out of himself.

Becoming convinced that cis people don’t hear themselves speak, that loud music that plays in their heads the moment they open their mouths, or they would surely horrify themselves with the cruelties they describe as cheerily and dismissively as if they were dictating a shopping list.
