This zine is for anyone wanting to learn more about the Holocaust, how genocides happen, and our responsibility to each other as humans. It also aims to honor Hester, who was one of the most incredible humans I've ever met. She was a trans ally, a mahjong fiend, and a good friend. I miss her.

Story of a Survivor: Hester Waas This 8-page-long digital zine recounts in detail the experience of my grandmother, Hester Kool (nรฉe Waas), Holocaust survivor. Hester passed in October 2025 at age 98, but she left behind a wealth of ...

As I promised ages ago, I have now added a FREE download to my site of my #zine Story of a Survivor: Hester Waas, which recounts my grandmother's childhood during the Holocaust. She survived in hiding, which was both a blessing and its own struggle. If you'd like a physical copy, that's up too ($4).

Book cover for Carmilla by Joseph Sheridan Le Fanu. The cover depicts Carmilla leaning her head against Laura's while she embraces her, Laura doesn't shy away from Carmillas touch but seems shy to reciprocate. They're framed by a red pointed arch, a devil and an angel and some baroque ornaments.

I'm a ruthless editor when it comes to em dashes. I love a well placed em dash in moderation. But I am not afraid to turn your em dash into a colon or start a new sentence. Writers beware!

That the removal of a corporate tax break which would have cost the state $550M survives in this final income tax proposal is great news for everyday people of our state. As more Washingtonians make use of popular programs, we must continue pressing the issue of taxing corporate and personal wealth.

In a world where I grew up hearing "never again" and yet we have concentration camps in this country, it is abundantly clear that white goys in large numbers care more about rhetoric than they do about the lives of marginalized people facing genocide.

Quick rhetorical question, what is so important about Platner specifically that makes white goys trip over themselves to justify Nazi tattoos? Even CNN says the dude knew it was a Nazi tattoo and that he referred to it as such.

look ima need white people to stop explaining to me that every white dude is prone to get obvious Nazi tattoos in their 20s. the shit is not true. I know plenty of white military dudes who didnt get Nazi tattoos. This is not a widespread phenomenon.

Look up your triggers first if you have them, and I can't guarantee it isn't dated in ugly ways, as I haven't read it in 15 years.

It's gay, gory, disgusting, deeply sad, and very purple. If you liked Hannibal and could stomach something darker and grosser, I definitely recommend trying it.

Anyway, any time William Joseph Martin comes up, I think about his book Exquisite Corpse, which is the most fucked up book I've ever read (positive. I think). When Oscar Wilde said "There is no such thing as a moral or immoral book," he didn't know it yet, but he was talking about Exquisite Corpse.

My end goal is to raise $5,000! This will give our family a much needed cushion until my stepdad's Army pension kicks in.

That clip of Timothee Chalamet being like โ€œno one watches the opera or balletโ€ is wild and I am dying over every ballet and opera acct (correctly) being like โ€œweโ€™ve been here for hundreds of years before you and weโ€™ll be here for hundreds of years after youโ€ lmao

my take on Joss Whedon is that he was literally not allowed to be in a room alone with a child, and that's kind of the end of the story for me.

What kind of 3D-printed trinkets would YOU look for in a nerdy, artsy, bookish Etsy shop? I know fidget toys are big right now, but I'm curious what else would fit my niche. Also, I'm excited/scared to try learning Blender.

And ignorance is no excuse here. The post in question actually used his current name in addition to his old name, so they knew.

Trans men can go on testosterone, grow a beard, use he/him pronouns, say "I'm a man," and people will still categorize us as women. This is unacceptable.

Something we are NOT doing is celebrating William Joseph Martin (formerly Poppy Z. Brite) for "women's" events. He is a trans man.

Portrait of a sylvari character. Celache has dark brown skin, some of its part look like bioluminiscent tree bark. Her braided hair is bioluminescent too, and she wears a corset with a shoulder piece made of long leaves. She is framed with forget me nots.
