Delightful interview with @marthawells.com, author of, inter alia, the #Murderbot series of novels by Meghan Herbst for @wired.com.
What struck me was her understanding of the human need for connection.

Things are feeling bleak for the trans community, and you've probably heard some variation of "We've survived this before." And maybe you think "a lot of us DIDN'T!" That's very true...
But it also helps to know what you're up against, and what worked before.
So let's talk about HOW we've survived
A new report details both an epidemic of fatal violence and discriminatory legislation against trans Americans. While many fear a Trump administration will only further threaten trans lives, these orgs are fighting back. ⤵️
This Trans Day of Remembrance, the only message I have is:
It's not enough to remember us, you need to support us while we're still here.
The trade dress for Blade Maidens Vol. 1 by Valentine M. Smith, showing the primary cast of Ser, Rowan, Eldridge, Melody and Vivienne ready for combat.
Okay, with all the new folks on I'm gonna do a proper thread on BLADE MAIDENS and why you should read it! Blaidens is a free fantasy webcomic (www.blademaidens.com) co-created by myself and @valentinemsmith.bsky.social, which will eventually be coming to print through @darkhorsecomics.bsky.social!
On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, we reflect on the lives of trans and non-binary individuals lost to violence simply for being who they are. Today, we honor their memory and pledge to create a world where trans lives are valued and protected.

Imma need some of you to think about thriving out of spite. I had big plans for 2025 and I’m definitely not gonna pre-derail them for likes of Elin and Tromp. I’m getting more involved. Loving harder. Writing hornier. Having more fun. I’m gonna be so kind to my neighbors, bitch.
