The fact that I'm 23 and I havent completed a master work yet is driving me crazy. I need to do a gesamtkunstwerk NOW or my brain will start leaking out of my nose.
Francophone magazine ATOM is going to release in its 27th edition an interview of The Summer Hikaru Died's author Mokumokuren, and I was wondering if there was any interest in a (n amateur) translation (EDIT: that I'd make) or if anyone else was already planning to do it!
I'm super new to the fandom so I don't know if you guys are super active on Twitter or Discord or something. If you have any info about someone already on the project, feel free to share!
In the meantime, enjoy the gorgeous preview visuals:
Some day I might sell compilations of my stories and at risk of getting sued, I will not be calling them "Chicken Soup for the Monsterfucker's Soul" as much as I'm dying wanting to
I think the one thing about the mentally vs physically disabled argument, the wheelchair bound vs healthy passing argument, the "why am I as an able bodied but neurodivergent person not allowed to say the c slur" argument is just that...
The threshold to be physically endangered via ableism is just really fucking low. Someone who cannot move at all without a wheelchair cannot enter or escape areas that are not ADA approved. But also someone with dietary restrictions and fatal allergies (the most invisble illness of all, it feels like) are CONSTANTLY endangered by negligence, laziness, and malice. You need the privilege of money or benefits to access healthcare, but if you have ANY problem that is not GUARANTEED to get 100% better within 6 months, you are fucked and abandoned by the healthcare system. (Because the healthcare system is NOT designed to treat sick people. It is designed to keep healthy people healthy. But I digress.)
Autistic and psychotic people are physically endangered via saneism and ableism in situations like interactions with police. Anybody who has ANY physical condition that impairs their physical ability will face apathetic or malicious negligence. Anything from food allergies to mild joint pain to literal paralysis, you can be gaslit by a doctor, assaulted in some form, or have a near-death experience that is the result of ableism.
The sooner people figure this out, the sooner a lot of people will stop clowning about the various aspects of disability.

Yule is the start of the new year, the midwinter festival for the solstice and the days afterward. Traditions are to burn logs and light candles to welcome the return of the sun, to celebrate with food and cheer and family, and to remember connections with the past.
Robin Blessing never felt much need for that last part; he lives in his family’s old farmhouse with the ghosts of his long-dead relatives. Anyway, he has no time for Yule. Alone, overworked, and ill, the holiday and any coven obligations that go with it are the last things on his mind.
So he is not pleased to open his door and find Lucas Greysmith on the other side. Lucas is a legendary figure in Ravenscroft; marked by great magic, part of a powerful family, annoyingly tall and good-looking, and yet always asking after Robin when Robin is fine, thank you very much. Someone as important as Lucas should have better things to worry about than one little witch who won’t use his Sight, and Robin usually wouldn’t hesitate to tell him so.
Instead, Robin faints right at Lucas’ feet.
When Robin wakes up, it’s to find that the Greysmiths have decided that Lucas will stay with Robin for the duration of the Yule season to help him recover, and Robin is in no position to protest. The more rest he gets, the more he realizes that he’s been lonely, that he needs the help, and that there might have been a reason Lucas has been asking after him all these years. If Robin had used his gift, he might have seen what Lucas has been patiently waiting for.
Yule is both an end and a beginning, and for first time in years, Robin looking forward to what the future might bring.
