Lammys! Posters! Prophesies foretold?!
Added 2024-06-17 02:34:19 +0000 UTCHey friends,
Hope you’re all hanging in there. I’m realizing that I have gone a little too hard and overbooked myself every day until July, but at this point the only way out is through!! So!! Let’s get to it!
My big news this week is that 2 Trans 2 Furious won a Lambda Literary Award — something that I apparently threatened to make happen back in Episode 149!? I don’t have much to say that I didn’t say in my tiny speech, but I do want to thank all y’all for supporting this unhinged endeavor. I can’t wait to reprint the book with the little award sticker in the wheels or something.

Btw, if you’re coming to the live show on Thursday, you can grab one of the last 2 Trans 2 Furious copies and/or one of the very good prints & posters that I printed. (You can’t really tell from these pics but they printed sooo well.) Get your tickets before the price goes up @ the door!

Over in the podcast part of the podcast, we’ve got a little bonus episode coming out tomorrow morning — but tbh, really all it says is:
We won a Lammy lmao
Live show this week!
Arlie Adlington and I recommend the film Pride (2014)
You already know these things, so like, don’t worry about it I guess! Unless you want to hear that clip from Ep 149 lol.
Here’s Links & Stuff.
Read:
Emma Copley Eisenberg wrote about the American fiction scene’s fatphobia problem
Eater is running a collection of queer food/hospitality stories, featuring work by Gender Conceal alums Jaya Saxena and Rax Will :)
Remember the teen conversion camp horror novel that I believe Gretchen teased on the show two years ago? Well, Cuckoo is out now!
Watch:
I love this video.
Like everyone else I want to watch the Star Wars Hotel video but I am only capable of watching like 6 minutes of video per day so it’s taking … a long time.
I hope your week can embody this vibe in some way.
That’s it for this week. Here’s your Weekly Rhubarb.

See you Thursday! Throw a brick at a cop.
