Thoughts in the Shower at Four am (from Maenadum vol 1 no 1)

  Thoughts in the Shower at four am washing the cum out of my hair  from Maenadum vol 1 number 1 This is one of, maybe, the very first thing I wrote on Xanadu (She is the laptop I have and so the repository of all my dark sorcery).   Despite most of Maenadum 1/1 being stuff I had from the (tiny) scrap apple print run of vol 0 (which is a story itself), a few things I had been writing that year snuck in there  when I decided to put these together.   I think this is from January or maybe early  February  of 2020.  In a lot of respects the stuff in Maenadum vol 1 one and two feel now like precursors or companion pieces to Ishtar     Who knows? Maybe one day I can fold them in?  . At any rate, like a lot of my super early stuff it’s very slice of life (something I think I would like to get back to a bit honestly).   And like a fair bit of the material in Ishtar, it speaks about and with the language of sex work, w...

Solidarity post

It is now about vengeance; I am here for every minute of my life I have been humiliated for being a woman. Two months ago, as I stood with other women in protest against the hijab decree, a policeman called me a slut. Although I was fully dressed, he said I was naked. I have had this and worse many, many times. Back then we were just a few dozen women asking for the right to choose how we dressed. I never expected that just a few weeks later things would take such a deadly turn. Now, as we protest we are risking death. When I heard about Mahsa’s killing, I couldn’t let them get away with it. All our lives we have been policed and silenced, and I want to be free. So, before they cu...
