I just saw someone talking about a book say they disliked it so much they recycled it.
I am 💀👻😱 but also stealing that as my worst secret rating for books now 😅
I can't help anyone who is so indoctrinated that they really think the world is shitty because it has to be that way. It so clearly doesn't. We're not even talking about political activity in the world. We're talking a basic foundation to be able to say, this shit's not right, it could be better.
"The Language of Liars" releases today. All the quotes below are accurate. This is the kind of sf story the novella format works perfectly for. Read it!
A table with piles of books set out on it
Shipping signed books orders and dang but I never notice how much I've written (and there are like 8 books not represented here either) until you have it piled in front of you...
As the old saying about Sean Duffy goes, "When you're scared of transit, every solution looks like a highway."

Happy "it's good to resist your oppressor, actually" day to all who celebrate (we should all celebrate). May all ghetto walls and apartheid walls and prison walls fall. B"S

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?
A weighted blanket will defeat most of the robot shit i see these days. I should put that in a book lol
I actually don’t understand the expectation that I will be generous with people who are condescending to me
I am not a perpetual motion machine. I have finite energy. Why would I waste it on that
Both! But I meant the glasses 😊
I like the red!
“Feud with the Pope” is BACK as a likely Wikipedia section heading after a 400-year gap.
fwiw the obvious reflection on this reaction is that technocrats don't like when people assert control over systems (digital, admin, etc).
when technocrats make decisions about systems, that's good because it subscribes to technocratic authority; when people do it without consulting them, it's bad.
Happy birthday to the only man who has ever played Pennywise, and the only man who ever could

I'm not joking when I say mRNA technology is more important than "AI" and it's a tragedy we're throwing billions into one while our government is aggressively defunding the other.

I don't want to pour varnish
I don't want to turn my canvas
I don't want to record my screen
I don't want to cultivate parasocial relationships
I just want to make pictures and shitpost
