The past 10 years have brought war down upon the heads of trans people. It’s frightening. We watch the news and doomscroll on social media, confronted with yet another stripping away of trans rights. We are all in the same boat. Once the administration is done with trans folx, they’re coming for the rest of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community. It’s just a matter of time.
For Pride 2026, I want to hear from other queer folx and their stories filtered through the horror lens. I’m looking for personal essays and critical pieces about queer horror that transcends the here and now, empowers you, keeps you grounded, or is simply a comfort fave of yours during this current torrential downpour.
Right now, I can not pay for your pieces. The goal here is to uplift each other AND raise money for The Trevor Project. A fundraiser will be launched on June 1. In a capitalist society, money can go a long way in helping support homeless queer youth, those struggling with addiction, trans and non-binary folx needing gender-affirming care and/or life-saving therapy, and people just barely getting by.
