Me trying to be normal:
The Plutonian comic was so bad, it made my teeth hurt. Humor varies from one planet to the next, but there are only so many ways you can recycle the joke about how Jupiterans dance like this, and Plutonians dance like that.
“What’s the deal with Jupiterans?"

“I was interning at Command Central when this position opened up, and no one else wanted it because there was no chocolate. Richena says she doesn’t see what the big deal is—she doesn’t like chocolate all that much.”
“How weird. And she looks just like an Earthling.”

The Cygnoid leader went by the modest title of Counselor. After recent encounters with Exalted Leader (Pluto), Her Supreme Superiority (Venus), and Dude Who Signs the Paychecks (Gemini XII), this suggested we were dealing with someone a little more down-to-Earth.

In science fiction, paperwork does not exist except in extremely dystopian cultures. If you’ve been assigned to complete any forms that can’t be signed with your eyeballs, you’re probably doomed.

The entire population of Pluto agrees with you.
Exalted Leader is allergic to chocolate, and if he can't have it, no one can.
Janet has no weapons, just her communication device, a Boron-Edged Electrum-Powered Integrated Technological Yadayada Bifurcated Electronic Eleventy-Purpose Existential Radio (BEEPITY-BEEPER for short).
She may also have chocolate, which is illegal on Pluto.

"And the Little Mermaid dissolved into #seafoam."
"What? That's a terrible ending. Even worse than the one where Cinderella cut her foot off and Rapunzel choked on her hair. Who wrote this fairy tale book?"
"George R. R. Martin."

A machine nearly filled the entire room, with an assortment of wheels, pulleys, panels, and spinning lights in eight different colors. The lights looked like what would happen if a disco ball got drunk. It emitted a sound like a cow falling onto a pile of bicycle horns.

This is a dance off. If you see this repost a dance.
I responded "Deactivate my account." That was today, and so far all I've gotten is the "we received your message & will get back to you" response that I expected 2 days ago.
I followed their exact directions and shouldn't have to jump through the same hoops multiple times.
After 24 hours, I sent Legal a 2nd email asking they acknowledge receipt of my message. A day later, I got similar emails from Service and Legal, trying to argue me out of it, saying accounts like mine (no books on the platform, just a royalty split from an anthology) would not be charged. (1/2)

I am delisting my books from D2D.
If you don't want to use Amazon, I just uploaded all my ebooks as EPUB and PDF for sale on my personal Ko-Fi store (which supports me directly).
I'll upload to other markets when the novelettes are done.

I'm in this exact situation: I contributed a story to an anthology, and just got my first royalty statement. 23 cents.
