My very last comic for The Nib! End of an era! Transcription below the cut. instagram / patreon / portfolio / etsy / my book / redbubble
The first event I went to with GENDER QUEER was in NYC in 2019 at the Javits Center.
So many of the people who came to my signing were librarians, and so many of them said the same thing: "I know exactly who I want to give this to!" Maia: "Thank you for helping readers find my book!" While working on the book, I was genuinely unsure if anyone outside of my family and close friends would read it. But the early support of librarians and two American Library Association awards helped sell two print runs in first year.
Since then, GENDER QUEER been published in 8 languages, with more on the way: Spanish, Czech, Polish, French, Italian, Norwegian, Portugese and Dutch.
It has also been the most banned book in the United States for the past two years. The American Library Association has tracked an astronomical increase in book challenges over the past few years. Most of these challenges are to books with diverse characters and LGBTQ themes. These challenges are coming unevenly across the US, in a pattern that mirrors the legislative attacks on LGBTQ people. The Brooklyn Public Library offered free eCards to anyone in the US aged 13-21, in an effort to make banned books more available to young readers. A teacher in Norman, Oklahoma gave her students the QR code for the free eCard and lost her job. Summer Boismeir is now working for the Brooklyn Public Library. Hoopla and Libby/Overdrive, apps used to access digital library books, are now banned in Mississippi to anyone under 18. Some libraries won’t allow anyone under 18 to get any kind of library card without parental permission. When librarians in Jamestown, Michigan refused to remove GENDER QUEER and several other books, the citizens of the town voted down the library’s funding in the fall 2022 election. Without funding, the library is due to close in mid-2024. My first event since covid hit was the American Library Association conference in June 2022 in Washington, DC. Once again, the librarians in my signing line all had similar stories for me: “Your book was challenged in our district" "It was returned to the shelf!" "It was removed from the shelf..." "It was moved to the adult section."
Over and over I said: "Thank you. Thank you for working so hard to keep my book in your library. I’m sorry you had to defend it, but thank you for trying, even if it didn't work." We are at a crossroads of freedom of speech and censorship. The future of libraries, both publicly funded and in schools, are at stake. This is massively impacting the daily lives of librarians, teachers, students, booksellers, and authors around the country. In May 2023, I read an article from the Washington Post analyzing nearly 1000 of the book challenges from the 2021-2022 school year. I was literally on route to a festival to talk about book bans when I read a startling statistic. 60% of the 1000 book challenges were submitted by just 11 people. One man alone was responsible for 92 challenges. These 11 people seem to have made submitting copy-cat book challenges their full-time hobby and their opinions are having an outsized ripple effect across the nation. WE NEED TO MAKE THE VOICES SUPPORTING DIVERSE BOOKS AND OPPOSING BOOK BANS EVEN LOUDER. If you are able too, show up for your library and school board meetings when book challenges are debated. Send supportive comments and emails about the Pride book display and Drag Queen story hours. If you see a display you like– for Banned Book Week, AAPI Month, Black History Month, Disability Awareness Month, Jewish holidays, Trans Day of Remembrance– compliment a librarian! Make sure they feel the love stronger than the hate <3

The end of the year can be tough for a lot of people. My goal? To make it a little bit brighter. That's why I'm pleased to once again announce the return of...
The Portal Holiday Spirit Initiative!
To help bring a smile to people's faces this year, I will be sending FREE Portal-Themed Holiday Cards to anyone who asks for one! There are a few changes to the cards this year because life has gotten very busy for me and I have less free time than in years past.
This year there will only be one card design, featuring artwork from one of the Portal Fandom's awesome artists! The cards will still be customizable to any Winter Holiday of your choosing, but you'll have to wait for your card to arrive in order to see how (the method takes cues from the Portal game's sense of humor, so it will very much be on-brand).
This year is also special because it is PHSI's 5th Anniversary! I can’t express the amount of thanks everyone who has participated over the years, whether you've reblogged and shared, requested cards, helped with artwork, or helped in other ways. You all deserve my recognition and thanks for volunteering your time, talents, and support! Thanks for helping to make PHSI a special fandom tradition!
If you would like to receive a Portal-Themed Holiday Card:
Visit bit.ly/PHSI-2023 ...
Answer the questions in the forms...
Wait for your card to be sent!
It's that easy! Card Requests are now open, and close on December 20th in order to give me enough time to make and send all the cards before the end of the year. Please submit sooner rather than later so I have time to finish them all!
Also, please don’t be afraid to request a physical card if you don’t live in the US! The card service I've chosen says they ship worldwide and, while it might take a bit longer for you to receive your card depending on what country you live in, the cards will get mailed to whatever address you provide, domestic or foreign. Last year I mailed/emailed a total of 164 cards to Italy, Canada, Germany, England, Poland, The US, The United Kingdom, Brazil, India, and Slovenia!
I’m happy to be a part of the Portal Fandom and hope to bring a smile to others in the Fandom this year! Making and emailing Holiday Cards takes time and effort, and sending physical cards is expensive. While it isn't a requirement to receive a card, I would greatly appreciate if you'd like to give $4 to cover the cost of your card or someone else's. Please visit ko-fi.com/247testing and click the Donate button if you want to help out. 
Also, feel free to DM me with any questions or comments. Thanks!
Answers for common questions and concerns under the cut:
Worried about providing a mailing address, for whatever reason?
PHSI has an eCard option! All you need to provide is a name for me to call you by and an email address to receive your card!
Worried about requesting a card because you don’t live in the US?
PHSI mails to any address provided, whether domestic or foreign! However, please wait patiently for your card, due to the current global rate of shipping.
Worried that you can’t give $4 to cover the cost of your card or someone else’s?
Requesting a card from PHSI has been and will always be FREE! However, giving $4 to the initiative helps me pay for the printing service and postage to mail physical cards (visit ko-fi.com/247testing if you’d like to contribute). I gratefully appreciate any contributions received, even if it’s just a comment saying thanks!
Worried because you don’t know how to support the artist of the card you received?
The artist’s social media is listed on the back of every card featuring their artwork. Look them up, commission them, reblog their art, and support them however you can!
Worried because you haven’t received your card yet?
Double check your email inbox and junk folders. I send everyone an email that either confirms your Holiday Card has shipped or includes your eCard! Physical cards take 1-2 weeks to arrive. If your physical card fails to show up after the first week of January, please reach out to me and I’ll send you a replacement eCard!
Worried because you received your card and don’t know what to do now?
Make a post about it! Include pictures, videos, or anything you’d like, and tag me in the post (@24-7-testing) so I can reblog it! If you don’t want to show your card off, that’s ok too!

i am once again recommending that, if you live in the middle of nowhere and your public library is lacking in digital resources, see if you can get an ecard through the largest library system in your state (for example, i live in massachusetts, so for me it's the boston public library). often they'll give you a card for free (or a nominal fee in some cases) if you have in-state residence, even if you don't live in the city it's in. it doesn't give you access to everything, obviously, but it's how i've accessed libby and kanopy for years even though the one in my town doesn't offer those services, and i just checked and they've expanded access to also include things like comic books, daily newspapers, and a meditation app. obviously it's gonna vary state to state but it's definitely worth a try!

SotWK's July Celebration: "Tolkien eGifts" for your Ask Boxes
July is my birthday month, and the first one I'm celebrating on Tumblr. In appreciation of my Followers, I would like to use this occasion to give something to the Tolkien fandom community and spread some cheer throughout the site.
I've been working with the wonderful artist @baek-art, who has created some gorgeous Tolkien character commissions. I used her art to then make what I decided to call "Tolkien eGifts".
Tumblr media
What is a Tolkien eGift?
It is an eCard sent from one person to another via Tumblr Ask Box as a gesture of care and love. Each card has its own LOTR character and "gift" that character brings, representing a wish for the recipient (e.g. health, joy, comfort).
How is a Tolkien eGift used?
I will kick things off by sending these eGifts to some of my Mutuals, and I hope everyone will help me get the ball rolling from there. It takes a community to spread love around!
If/When you receive an eGift in your Box, please feel free to save the image, stick it in a new Ask message, and SEND IT ALONG to someone else's Ask Box. You can even do it on Anon if you're shy!
Please don't forget to reply to your eGift and thank your sender for their thoughtfulness. (Answering an Ask does not count as "reposting", so don't worry!) This helps make the eGifts visible and accessible for others to use.
Send Tolkien eGifts to as many friends/mutuals/strangers as you like, Tolkien fan or not! Send it on its own or add a little personalized message from you. Add a fic rec, a recipe, a sonnet, song lyrics, get creative!
A few important notes regarding use:
Even if you don't receive an eGift directly in your Ask Box (though I hope you do!), you can still save the image from any answered Ask you see and send it to others. This is totally okay!
Please do not use the Tolkien eGifts to make new blog posts. These are meant to be exchanged via Tumblr Ask Boxes as personal notes, not as new posts for your own blog (aka reposting vs reblogging).
While I understand it's probably impossible to police this, please try to keep the eGifts on Tumblr only, to help prevent the misuse/stealing of the artist's work.
Credit to me or the artist baek-art is not necessary. We have already put our signatures/names on the eGift itself, and that suffices.
Tumblr media
Please do not alter/edit the eGift cards or the artwork for your own purposes.
Most importantly: have fun and enjoy the gifts!

Mock The Week: "Unlikely Things To Hear at Christmas Time" RP Starters
content warning; profanity, dark humour, sexual references
Feel free to adjust gendered terms as needed
"I went to Africa last year. They do know it's Christmas."
"Last year, for Christmas, to help my grandfather give up smoking, I bought him a petrol-infused cigarette. His face lit up."
"I've burnt the turkey and I'm shagging your brother! I'm joking, the turkey's fine!"
"I'm not saying you haven't made an effort, I'm just saying I didn't realize Pot Noodle did a turkey flavour."
"Awww, I knew they cared, they've sent me an eCard."
"This Christmas, why don't you spice up your festive sex life and give your partner a surprise. Put the fairy up yourself."
"D'yknow, I think this is the best stuffing I've ever had. Shall we put our clothes back on before your parents arrive?"
"It's Christmas? Today? Are you sure? The shops have kept that very quiet."
"We always have a goose here at Christmas. I don't know why really, its conversation's terrible and it shits all over the floor."
"A good tip for sprouts is to slice them very thinly, drizzle them in olive oil, throw them in the bin and drink a bottle of red wine."
"Aww, I just wish that Monopoly lasted longer…"
"What the fuck is eggnog?"
"Is that a candy cane in your pocket, or have you just got a really weird shaped penis?"
"I um… I know you didn't want diamonds and things, but you deserve something really expensive so… I've bought you some gas."
"Bit of oil, bit of salt, and finally you put a lemon up the bottom. Strangely, I quite enjoy it."
"Well, it's soaked in brandy, let's get it lit and we can pretend she fell asleep watching telly."
"Oh, we're under the mistletoe. I think you know what that means… I've locked us outside again, haven't I?"
"I'm afraid Santa wasn't able to bring you a toy train, so he's brought you a toy replacement bus service."

If you're a USAmerican between the ages of 13 and 21, you can get a free Brooklyn Public Library card to access ebooks & learning databases without a New York State address:
From the BPL's site:
National Teen BPL eCard // We invite individuals ages 13-21 to apply for a free BPL eCard, providing access to our full eBook collection as well as our learning databases. To apply, email [email protected]. BPL’s eCard is always free to teenagers in New York State. Apply here.
More information: https://www.bklynlibrary.org/books-unbanned
Why:
Brooklyn Public Library joins those fighting for the rights of teens nationwide to read what they like, discover themselves, and form their own opinions. Inspired by the American Library Association's Freedom to Read Statement, BPL's Books Unbanned initiative is a response to an increasingly coordinated and effective effort to remove books tackling a wide range of topics from library shelves.
With states passing restrictive library laws and low library budgets, this is a free, easy, (and legal) way to continue reading or to access books that may have been banned in your state. Most targeted books were for a teen audience and were by or about Black or LGBTQIA+ persons.
If you're outside the age range to apply for this card, there's a donation window to support the program on the BPL's website.
Here is a list of libraries both within America and internationally too. Unfortunately, all of them require a monthly/yearly fee to access if you're not a resident of the state/territory (& sometimes country) they're located in: https://en.everybodywiki.com/List_of_public_libraries_with_non-resident_borrowing_privileges

https://www.bklynlibrary.org/podcasts
Borrowed and Banned is a new podcast series from the Brooklyn Public Library about America’s ideological war with its bookshelves. Over seven episodes, co-hosts Adwoa Adusei and Virginia Marshall share stories from students on the frontlines, librarians and teachers whose livelihoods are endangered when they speak up, and writers whose books have become political battleground. They’ll include steps you can take to combat censorship … no matter where you live and no matter how old you are.
Subscribe on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favorite podcast app. First episode dropped on September 28 2023.
I was very happy to contribute an interview for this podcast; I think my piece will come in one of the last episodes, but the trailer for the show sounds amazing! I recommend giving it a listen!
The Brooklyn Public Library also offers free ecards to anyone aged 13-21 in the US in an effort to make banned books more available to young readers. Email [email protected] to request a free library card.

Hallmark+ Streaming Service to Launch in Fall, Will Include First Holiday Limited Series, Original Movies and More
Hallmark Movies Now is undergoing a transformation. The on-demand service will be rebranded as Hallmark+, a new streaming service set to launch in mid-September, which will incorporate ad-free viewing with retail and product benefits. “Hallmark+ marks a seminal moment for Hallmark,” says Mike Perry, president and CEO, Hallmark. “By intertwining new, rich content experiences with tangible rewards and premium Hallmark gifts, we are delivering a unique, new program that reflects our commitment to spreading joy through our deeply beloved brand touchpoints.” Currently, Hallmark Movies Now plans begin at $5.99 a month or $59.99 for a year; Hallmark+ plans will start at $7.99 per month or $79.99 per year. The membership includes exclusive benefits and rewards, including monthly $5 Hallmark Gold Crown Store coupons, free unlimited eCards, rewards for shopping, and surprise gifts.
This fall, Hallmark+ will debut their first movie trilogy told from the male’s point of view. Inspired by “The Wedding Veil” trilogy, “The Groomsmen” follows three lifelong best friends who stand up for each other at each of their big days. Jonathan Bennett, Tyler Hynes and B.J. Britt star.
Hallmark+ is set to roll out fresh content, including new genres and formats for Hallmark Media. For the first time, they’ll enter the holiday limited series space with “Holidazed,” which follows six families from different backgrounds coming together over the holidays and stars Dennis Haysbert, Erin Cahill, Holland Roden, John C. McGinley, Ian Harding and more.
The app will feature Hallmark’s foray into unscripted content as well. Coming in the fall, Jonathan Bennett will host “Finding Mr. Christmas,” a competition series to become the company’s next leading man. Lacey Chabert will honor real-life heroes in “Celebrations With Lacey Chabert.” Then, during the holiday season, Wes Brown will host “Ready, Set, Glow!” traveling to some of the most impressive, festive displays and meeting the inspirational people behind the lights.
In 2025, two more unscripted series will come to the app: “Small Town Setup,” with Ashley Williams helping parents play matchmaker for their adult kids; and “Home Is Where the Heart Is,” following Luke Macfarlane as he helps families renovate an important room in their home.
“The Chicken Sisters” adaptation series is set to debut on the app in mid-September. In addition to the previously announced cast, Margo Martindale has joined as the narrator, as James Kot, Rukiya Bernard, Ektor Rivera and Jake Foy have been added to the cast.
