Right now, I’m terrified of my own body.  I don’t know when it’s going to hurt, when I’m going to boil inside my own skin, or freeze. My mood swings with savage intensity the likes of which I haven’t felt since adolescence. My body is part of me, yet I feel like it’s fighting me.  In a way, my body has always fought me. I grew up with balance problems, making climbing over rocks, hillsides, or even jungle gyms terrifying. Directions, obvious to most people, are often enigmatic to me, seeing as I lack anything like a sense of direction.  … Read more

(“Why We Still Do This.” https://www.queerscifi.com/why-we-still-do-this/ ) Now, after about 122 months of deadlines, info dumps, fun projects and wonders I think it might be time to see what’s changed and what hasn’t. The country is still in a mess. When I wrote that first column, the Pulse shooting had just happened. In the intervening years, rainbow crosswalks were painted on city streets, especially one honoring the Pulse victims. Now in this era, those crosswalks have been painted over. But … Read more

Interference is unacceptable. The people of Earth are subjects, not companions. Then he meets Finn, a marine biologist whose easy kindness draws Leth out from behind his careful observations. What begins as professional curiosity becomes coffee, shared routines, late-night messages, and moments Leth cannot reduce to data. For the … Read more
