The unjustified suspension of #GretchenFelkerMartin by #BlueSky is yet one more piece of evidence as to why we cannot leave our tools of communication in the hands of a few billionaires and millionaires, no matter how many platitudes about freedom and safety they make and why they will never have my data.

So much for "legalizing comedy" and "free-speech absolutism."

I may not mock at their calamity, nor laugh when their fear cometh, yet I hail it as the dawn of a political millennium.

DC cancels comic book series after writer posts about Charlie Kirk’s death on social media

DC Comics has canceled the just-released “Red Hood” comic book series after author Gretchen Felker-Martin made comments about Charlie Kirk’s death on social media.

When I said that the #UK was itself the origin point for much of the entanglement of #transphobia and #fascism, and that other countries needed to prevent their own slide into oppression, this is the kind of thing I was talking about. Since around COVID, the #terf movement has been led largely by a few loud UK voices.

If you want to understand the connection between this kind of fem-fascism, I can recommend the academic book *Who's Afraid of Gender?* by #judithbutler (2024) and the novel *Manhunt* by #GretchenFelkerMartin (2022).

How J.K. Rowling helped fund the U.K.'s war on trans people

J.K. Rowling, author of the “Harry Potter” series and notorious anti-trans advocate, posted a photo of herself celebrating a U.K. Supreme Court ruling that seeks to erase trans women.

Agreed. I've only read Ego Homini Lupus from #GretchenFelkerMartin before but it showed a lot of world-building, the character's headspace, and general #horror grossness from the work of skinning wolves. It had so much physicality and detail that it was exhausting to read but also makes you realize how strangely unphysical we are in a huge subset of the modern world and we're freaks in our own way.

Gretchen Felker-Martin on Twitter

“related, but I love it when a book is about work. I love scenes of people working. I think it's just as interesting and ripe for prose experimentation as action or sex scenes.”

I've been on a horror movie kick since Halloween with no end in sight.

I offer an unequivocal endorsement of every movie #GretchenFelkerMartin enjoys. Her taste is truly impeccable. She's never steered me wrong yet.

Also, of course read #Manhunt 😘
