I have to admit, I did migrate over to Discord after AIM shut down, but aside from directly chatting with friends, I find it VERY hard to keep up with servers. It’s like a forum and AIM had a baby and I can’t keep up with the constant, stream of conscious messages.

I always write out of order. I write whatever scenes come into my head, as they come into my head, then get to play the fun game of piecing them all together and filling in the breaks.

Great work! Let me know if you’d ever like to do some writing accountability together!

Support Marin Support Marin

Hi. A dear friend of mine's been abruptly laid off from their job whilst also stuck in medical-bureaucracy limboβ€”delaying surgery they've spent 1.5 years preparing for.

Marin & Martin took even gnarlier financial hits than I did in the strike. Please help them keep their house.

Tristan Felix B. (@tristiger.bsky.social) not just translates manga, but Japanese novels as well! He's done works by Tomihiko Morimi, important trans titles like To Strip the Flesh and Until I Love Myself, and the underrated Kaori Ozaki work Mermaid Prince, to name a few!

Leo McDonagh (@leotranslations.bsky.social) has primarily translated LGBTQIA+ stories, and his input as a queer trans man is invaluable! Boys Run the Riot is probably his most-well known work, but he's also done work for Just Like Mona Lisa and the early volumes of I Think My Son Is Gay!

I want to spread some positivity in the world, so I want to shout-out folks doing great work in the Japanese translation space:

Aahh, you’re so kindβ€”thank you so much for the kind words, and I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed the series!

Several colleagues of mine were really pushing for Mars so I can’t take credit for that, but Drawing From Your Memory is a shojosei series I really advocated for that’s coming out soon!

Former Washington Post journalists have launched a GoFundMe to help repatriate fired staff members who are effectively stranded in foreign countries.

One of the richest men in the world fired them from the paper and didn’t even pay to ensure they got home.

Update:

We've gotten an estimate, and it's $6k. Still cheaper than buying a brand new car, but FAR beyond our current means.

I do have some VO work coming up that'll cover a good chunk of it, but the payment is still a ways out.

I set a goal on Ko-fi, any shares are still HUGELY appreciated!

Honestly it’s criminal that they removed all the tables and chairs from the downstairs dining area. Thank god they still have the Station Master area, but it’s so ableist that they don’t have more seating around such a large station.

One of my favorite ways to make my own pizza at home that I learned through a Blue Apron recipe is to slice a focaccia loaf in half and use that as the dough base. It’s a game changer.
