Things I Liked In April 2026

We are so back with another list of things I liked this month, this time featuring a spinner! The idea is, you spin the spinner and are presented with a link to something I enjoyed. Kill some time, check out some neat stuff.  Everything has a link associated with it, so grab your board and get read to surf the web! Don't worry, I made sure they're not linking to any bullshit virus littered websites. The act of turning your joy into a list you're going to share with people really makes you think about how you spend your time. You spend a day reading and researching and engaging with art and come away with a handful of items to add to the list, but you spend a few hours doomscrolling and go "hm. Didn't add anything. Is this really how I want to spend my time?" Also, I'd go to put something on the list and stop to think "did I really engage fully with this? If my friend checks it out from my blog post and comes back with a conversation, will I be able to...

A Report on Transgender Psychoanalysis

Here’s a script (in radio-ish format) I wrote up for a book report presentation in my senior film seminar. We were assigned to read a book on psychoanalysis, so I of course chose one on transness. It's a 5 minute read (nice work sticking to the assignment, past Jay). The book was written by a cis woman who works with trans patients, so it was definitely interesting to read as a trans person. I didn't include much of that perspective in my presentation, but had this been a reading group I wouldn't have shut up about it. There's for sure chapters that'd be excellent for trans book club but I'd have to go back and find them, especially because some definitely aren't great for people new to psychoanalysis :P I'm experimenting with including audio in my posts, so I've also included a recording of the script. Enjoy! I did my project on Transgender Psychoanalysis: A Lacanian Perspective on Sexual Difference by Patricia GHER-o-VEE-chi. It’s a follow up t...

Something about Dune (1984). Or something.

     I'm 17 and I'm lying on the least comfortable couch in our house. It's firm and scratchy a nd not as long as I am tall , b ut it i s the couch at the foot of the bed my dad is dying in.        I haven't slept. I'm up on my phone, my brightness down , t rying not to wake my mom. Her alarm goes off intermittently throughout the night s o she can check on my dad's oxygen levels. I don't think she sleeps more than half an hour at a time. M y sister is in her bedroom above us. Hours before we had a conversation d eciding if we wanted to be in the house when he died. She planned to leave for our aunt's house in the morning.        M y phone. I'm reading a story online that someone wrote. I don't remember the details or where I could find it today. It's a h orror s tory set in a hospital. I'm new to the horror genre. I always thought I couldn't handle it b ut as I sat there working my way through the story, I...
