New piece of writing for @cosmopolitan new series Gender’s New Era. Honored to participate, honored to write, honored to express myself fully. Thank you to @nicolepasulka for the feature. I sent this to the men in my family and it opened up a lot, I hope it does the same for you. Let us free ourselves from within to undo the harms of this empire, to eradicate the norms that have led us to destroy each other and ourselves. And of course, join my Substack for more writing. #writing #gender #cosmopolitan #masculinity #femininity #duality

This one’s really good but the juicy stuff is just for paid subscribers. If you’ve enjoyed getting free work from me over the years and laughs and good times, or been “inspired” by me consider supporting me monetarily. Become a paid subscriber or founding member on Substack, to help me live to tell the tale.
In addition, book a tattoo with me, invite me to do a (paid) gig, instead of using AI hire me to write for you, OR if you can’t do any of those things, share my words and work with everyone you know or send me a one time donation to Pileoftears on Venmo/cashapp. I really need your help reaching my goals which are to sustain myself as an artist and writer during the fall of the empire. If a couple of you contribute 5$ a month or less I’d make my rent and a lil more and keep being able to make work I love without compromise. Thank you!

Open Letter from Iranian president to the American people. After a threat of nuclear annihilation from the President of the USA they still want to spread the truth and help us Awaken from this brainwashing. These are not our enemies. See the truth of this, the current sitting American president and all those that agree with his behavior are abhorrent and inhumane individuals.
