Hello! My name is Lindsey, a.k.a Bubbles the Banshee. 29. They/them. I am pansexual, panromantic, trans, and non-binary. I’m a published playwright, author, MLIS (Master of Library and Information Science) student, DnD enthusiast, and Twitch streamer. This blog is where I post about Twitch streams; graduate school; librarianship; my novel in progress, Goddess Dead, and my other creative writing projects.

Goddess Dead. Novel (Series). Genre: Speculative fiction, specifically post-apocalyptic fantasy with some Queer romance thrown in for flavor.
“Magick is fucking stupid.”
An orphan from Hervas’ underground Pleasure District, Mage Eliott Fauve is disillusioned with the magick-politics of King Lenien’s Arcane Court and determined to learn more about the Ancients: a long-lost civilization whose cultural monoliths are magick-resistant. When the neighboring country of Theraele unearths a new artifact, Eliott joins the excavation effort alongside their friends: the guard-captain and archivist power couple, Aisha and Lea Ishii, and Mage-Ambassador Carus Acon. Together, they uncover forgotten truths and make strange, new friends, but when the endeavor turns deadly, Eliott discovers just what they’re willing to lose in order to change the world.

Fun Facts About Me:
I’ll read just about any genre, but I especially love magic realism, gothic fiction, fantasy, romance, YA, dystopian fiction, and erotic horror.
If I was a Pokémon trainer, I would specialize in ghost and fairy types. I’d rock up to every battle with a Sylveon on my left and a Gengar on my right.
I spend a lot of my free time gaming with friends. My current favorites are Dragon Age: Inquisition, Baldur’s Gate 3, Dredge, and Palia.
I was a theater kid, and it shows.
I’m an Aries, and I’m told it doesn’t show.
I don’t drink coffee; I never developed a taste for it, and I drank so much Starbucks™ in undergrad that even the smallest amount of caffeine risks giving me heart palpitations.
Hey, real talk though? If you're in the USA, right now you need to call your representatives. 11.8 million people could lose health insurance because of this, as well as a lot of other shit going down, so speak up.
Go to 5calls.org, put in your location, and make the calls. Do it after business hours if you're worried about actually to a person, but do it.
We're running out of chances with this, please please do this now, while it's still possible to stop this.
Before the 1960s, almost everything about living openly as a lesbian, gay, bisexual (LGB) person was illegal. The Stonewall Uprising on June
Note that in the description the T has been removed. All mention of trans people has been scrubbed from the explanation of the Stonewall Riots/Movement. Please go to this page and scroll to the bottom. Where it asks if this page has been helpful, click No. In the box asking for more information, type that trans people were essential players in the Stonewall movement and that our exclusion is unacceptable.

PROTESTS ARE HAPPENING. THEY ARE JUST NOT BEING COVERED OUTSIDE OF LOCAL MEDIA OUTLETS. DO NOT RELY ON MAINSTREAM MEDIA.
There was a huge Trans-rights demonstration last night in New York outside of NYU Langone hospital in protest of their decision to halt gender-affirming care under Trump's order. (Source)
Use the list of words that are being censored at the National Science Foundation and create a list of materials at your work that you think might be at risk for destruction. Back everything you can up on a hard drive and remove it from the institution.
TIFF files are great, but we are going for quantity, not quality here - copy as much as you can. Keep it somewhere safe and be careful who you tell about these copies. Save what you can.
I don't mean sexualizing us or watching trans porn.
I don't mean treating trans mascs like "uwu soft baby boy" and trans femmes as "yass queen girl boss".
I don't mean expecting praise for using the right pronouns and using incorrect ones when "they're a bad trans person".
I mean ACTUAL SUPPORT.
Donate to trans shelters or organizations. DON'T out us to people we aren't out to. Go to protests if you're able, FIGHT ALONGSIDE US. Don't bring us around people you know are transphobic or dangerous, the list goes on. The LGBTQ community is ALL of us not just some of us.
Trans people who are documented as trans on government documents are currently not able to get passports - whether or not they accept their passport being issued as their birth sex, any indication that you're trans on a document that can be accessed by the government is being used as reason to deny a passport.
This is incredibly alarming. Even agreeing to be labeled as your birth sex is not sufficient. They want to deny trans people the ability to leave the country. Any possible reason for this is horrifying.
We need to rally now. Protect the entire community, do not allow them to throw any of us under the bus. None of us will be spared, they're just coming for the most vulnerable people first, and soon enough the most vulnerable people will be YOU.
As of Jan 21st, 2025, a full copy of the constitution is no longer available on whitehouse.gov. I feel like this is a good time to remind everyone that the biggest threat to authoritarianism and facism is a well educated and informed population. Inform yourself and fight.
a copy of the document can still be found on the archives website. I think now is probably a good time to read it if you haven't and download it, incase it is erased from here as well.
Hell, some of you might not even need to wait until midterms because of 2025 special elections. Every seat in the House that is projected to be up for grabs is red.
It should also be noted that turnout for "off year" elections is almost always lower, and House Speaker Mike Johnson is already contending with one of the narrowest margins in US history. If House Republicans want to successfully further Trump's agenda, they need to be in lockstep because there is next to no room for defection.
If you live in Florida or New York, take a couple minutes to look up who your representatives are. If it's Matt Gaetz, Michael Waltz, or Elise Stefanik, you might already have the opportunity to do the funniest shit imaginable.
Donald Trump wants people to expose diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts in the federal government. The idea is already flopping.
The threat was loud and clear: Report your so-called “DEI” employees or else. What exactly “DEIA or similar ideologies” means is up in the air, but the message was out there. And so was the email address of the DEIA snitching hotline.
Fake emails quickly started to roll in. ‘I don’t care, fuck these McCarthyite bastards,” one BlueSky user said, with an screenshot attached of an email to the hotline where he ironically reported Donald Trump and JD Vance for being “put in their positions solely because of their race and/or gender despite the fact that they are wholly unqualified for their jobs and, in some cases, have criminal records.”
“Anyone have a script to fire off a billion e-mails an hour??” another user asked in the replies.
“Anyone can email anything of any size even if it crashes the site,” one X user noted.
The scope and effectiveness of this latest phase of Trump’s anti-DEI crusade remains to be seen.
Do not let them erase this. Do not let them tell you he meant "my heart goes out for you."
This man is the grandson of a Canadian Nazi sympathizer who moved to South Africa BECAUSE he thought the apartheid was just the coolest.
He has a gaggle of kids specifically because he believes his genes are superior and need to be spread to improve humanity.
He has thrown his support behind the neonazi party in Germany and the far right party in the UK, not to mention how far he's wormed up the ass of the Republican party.
He threw two sieg heil salutes back to back at the inauguration of the president of the United States and is trying to scrub the evidence off the internet.
Don’t forget that the US civil rights bill only passed after six weeks of rioting that were the direct result of MLK’s murder. Peaceful protest paved the way, but violent protest got it over the finish line.
king's family doesn't "believe" the FBI killed him, they know it for fact because the FBI admitted to it in a civil case brought against them in the early 90s. the court documents are a matter of public record. read them yourself. the king family won that suit against the united states fucking government for assassinating martin luther king jr
And don't forget, he decided to ban tiktok after kpop stans trolled the shit out of his 2020 Tulsa rally, making the campaign team expect a million people to turnout and only getting a few thousand.
