Yeah I did another tiny little zine, this time about this two dudes! Now, the words all over the zine are actually from an italian song about a break up, lol. So yeah, try to interpret this however you want.
if you travelled back in time and told the me from one year ago that he would want to defend a high prince from other light-eyes' mockeries he would punch you in the face. and yet.
We just launched a new podcast called Life in Your Size! It's all about what it means to be a plus-size person in the world today.

I biked out to Waziwei 挖子尾 today cause the weather was nice and I hadn't been in a while. Normally I consider myself a conscientious cyclist and silently judge violators of the rules, but of course the one time I decide to make a foolhardy maneuver based on the fact that the only people visible in either direction are two aunties pedaling at the speed of molasses, precisely then must a guy dressed in all black like a ninja on a racing bike materialise from around a shrubbery at extreme velocity. While I yelped "fuck!", in remorseful anticipation of my self-wrought and untimely demise, he evaded smoothly and silently, but it still generated much more adrenaline than I'd desired in an afternoon.
Bali 八里 is significantly more chill in winter than the summer, I discovered. The crowd was much reduced, along with the 4-person pedal cars usually clogging the bike path (whose ongoing renovations finally seem to be mostly complete and blissfully smooth, further enhancing the experience). I got some fresh donuts from a stand and went to the beach, stomped about barefoot in the squishy low-tide sand, and explored an area I'd never been to over near the bridge construction (the 橋樑封閉禁止進入 photo).
I wish I could say going back was a fun time too but I've come to hate headwinds with a fiery passion. True, that could have been avoided if I'd just taken the bus home, or perhaps the ferry to Danshui 淡水 and then the train, but part of my scheme had been to try and work on extending my biking endurance to facilitate a different scheme to bike to Sandiaojiao 三貂角 and back using a Youbike from Ruifang Station 瑞芳站. I've entertained the conclusion that either I am perhaps not fit for a career in distance cycling (admire though I do those who are), or it's a harebrained idea to do it on a Youbike. (Yes, I know there were some foreigners who went the length of Taiwan on Youbikes, good for them, they also did the west coast.) But it could well be that I was simply cranky on account of being hungry, dehydrated, and not stopping to remedy these things because I was annoyed by the wind. The only way to find out is to keep at it, I suppose.
You’re the hottest person I follow. I know you’re into dudes and wouldn’t be into my coochie having enby ass but I just need you to know I think you’re so damn sexy
omg this might actually be the most flattering message i've ever received. it's an HONOR to be desired by your enby ass.
can i just say the fact that so many friends who were relative strangers comparatively stepped up during this scary time compared to nick who has disappeared entirely.... its telling. its so fucking telling.
