How much can you change and get away with it, before you turn into someone else, before it's some kind of murder?

war of the foxes - Richard Siken
““Is that too much to expect? That I would name the stars for you? That I would take you there? The splash of my tongue melting you like a sugar cube?””
— Richard Silken (Crush)
“Someone has to leave first. This is a very old story. There is no other version of this story.”
— Richard Siken, from “The Worm King’s Lullaby” in War of the Foxes
zero day + the poetry of richard siken.
"my body is performance art." is a collection of 30 poems written throughout the month of april as part of the "escapril" challenge.
much of it is about my identity as a trans gay man, my relationship with my boyfriend daniel, and my childhood memory loss. i would describe my style as richard-siken-esque, so if you like his writing, i recommend checking this out.
if you cannot afford this pdf, i have also posted all of these poems on my twitter. the only one not posted on there is day 20, because it's slightly 18+.

If you like SPIES ARE FOREVER or maybe RICHARD SIKEN, you would love my two-player tabletop roleplaying game, CONFLICT OF INTEREST.
In a line of work that values separation of the mind and the heart, the brains and the brawn, you have found it within yourselves to, perhaps ill-advisedly, merge the two. Not necessarily in the moments where you’ve got a gun in your hand and blood in your mouth, but in the moments between intense violence and adrenaline where you find calm in the company of one another.
This is a GM-less slice-of-life game for two players. You don’t need any materials to play, other than yourself and someone you trust.
“Conflict of Interest” is a game about intimacy and what it means to hide who you love, built on the Girlfriend Engine created by stargazersasha. Its second edition is releasing in a few months, and I have some other surprises related to it on the way. If you’re interested, you can go check it out at https://barcstravis.itch.io/coi2, or see the original at https://barcstravis.itch.io/conflict-of-interest. I hope you enjoy it!!!!
if you like spies are forever, richard siken poetry, or just generally queer history/stories, you’re gonna LOVE “lavender scare”, a new limited series actual play podcast that i’m producing. our team is almost entirely trans, is entirely queer, and we’re all pretty new to the field. it uses bully pulpit’s game “fiasco”, as well as my own game “conflict of interest”. i’ve been working on this since february and i cannot wait to see how people like it. if you have a moment, give our trailer a listen and drop us a follow on spotify!
Who up straight printing, it and by 'it', haha let just say Richard Siken's debut book 'Crush'

when kafka said “all the love in the world is useless when there is total lack of understanding” and when richard siken said “if you love me, you don’t love me in a way I understand.”
happy birthday to the ONLY MOVIE that has ever existed!!! <3
