Bookworming. Writing. Losing sleep over the state of the world.

Author of THE MYRIAD OF SIMON HANSEN, a meandering, egghead gay romance(?) set in a Dublin bookshop in the 90s.

https://myriadofsimonhansen.com/

Lest anyone doubt the roman a clef credentials of MYRIAD, I was definitely working in a bookstore c. 1990 because I vividly recall that Life in Hell comic strip dude getting a new show called The Simpsons, and being threatened with violence for carrying The Satanic Verses. myriadofsimonhansen.com/

Me, joking: I can’t believe we chose “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally”

Conservatives, dead serious: it was a tough choice, but I’m glad we picked “destroying the economy” and “losing wars” over “being nice to trans people occasionally”

I refuse to believe I'm meant to spend my one go on this floating rock celebrating cruelty and ignorance. That just can't be the point of all this.

Fucking ghouls. Death-penalty advocates anywhere are a blight, but this one feels especially pernicious with the champagne bullshit.

Its really smart to make routine civic repair work fun and engaging. It shows where tax dollars go and that even small things aren’t below the attention of the mayors office if they make people’s lives better.

Bafflingly there are still people out there in the world who think being passionate about nature is “kind of weird”. or “a niche interest”. These people have it all wrong. Nature isn’t some quirky sideline to the main business. It IS the main business.

Our grassroots movement forced every power — from AIPAC to the establishment — to use their entire arsenal, just to barely beat us.

Our loss today merely makes the path easier for the next person who runs. It’s an honor to be able to clear that path.

Happy Irish Day to everyone connected to the place, wherever you may be in the world! There is much Ireland (and zero saints) in the emerald-set MYRIAD series. Celebrate with a copy of Bk 1 (and even Bk2) if you love books, bookshops and kind gay boys. myriadofsimonhansen.com/

To spy on you so they can sell data to advertisers and any nearby fascist policing agencies if they're lucky.

I'm 100% sure that if there's a web enabled pressure cooker, they're busily figuring out who makes beans and rice.

Call me a luddite but I kind of prefer the old version of the Devil who used to put a murrain on crops and command his demon dogs to terrorise church congregations to the new one who insists on having an app for everything and gets rich by designing clever ways of capitalising on people's fatigue.

If you're researching queer history in England, farm records might be one of the last places you'd check.

Yet for #LGBTQHistoryMonth, @timjerrome.bsky.social shares how he's tracing queer histories within our farm archives, and gives tips for future research.

you have to be loudly pro-pornography and you have to never shut up about it. you have to become the "they want to take away your freedom of expression vis-à-vis cocks and boobs" person to everyone you know. i'm sorry to say it but it's just how it is right now

Hey, so you might have seen me repost the odd promo from Yearn, which is a new app for fantasy romance that’s attempting to challenge KU (and be better for both authors and readers).
