• How much of Colby's work is writing slashfic about the Bible??
• The limits of secularism in protecting trans people, and why Colby wants more trans people to have access to religion
• How the IRS randomly assigned Colby a trans name as a teen  
• Running a twitter poll to decide between rabbinical school and a neck tattoo
• Plus: Phalloplasty, Wheat Jesus, trans mayhem(!), and the return of Spinoza
