Extremely annoyed at the amount of AI pics of the astronauts landing when we have actual real cool pictures of it that we should be sharing

I've fixed the issue (after a lot of wailing and hair-tearing!), so you can now put in a new preorder for A Waltz of Sinister Import with confidence that it WILL arrive on your e-reader this autumn, full of supernatural mysteries and banter in Vienna.

I called. Have you?

Easter? You mean the holiday from Wake Up Dead Man was real?

Do horses want cake? We conducted an investigation into statements published by @bencollins.bsky.social in the print edition of @theonion.com.

If I think too hard about the first post, I will, in fact, spontaneously combust

Oh bless her heart

I respect trans people, so it's such a little thing for me to not watch the Harry Potter trailer or show. The proceeds from that property go directly to funding anti-trans work. It's a straight line from HP to destroying lives.

I can actually SAVE TIME by not supporting this. It requires NOTHING.

"AI" is basically the information and software equivalent of "forever chemicals" in our water systems.

It's everywhere now, hard to filter out or deal with, and we have only scratched the surface of its potential negative impacts.

Americans are losing HIV care. The Real Housewives want you to know about it. Stars from the shows took to Capitol Hill on Wednesday to advocate for HIV prevention as thousands of people are set to lose access to vital medication.

New favorite line I've gotten to write: The members of Congress looked considerably less glamorous than the Housewives.

I hope one of the things we will take away from this moment is that if we want survivors to be able to come forward immediately, then we need to be willing to protect them no matter how much we like, respect, or fear their perpetrator.

Every time [spoiler happened iykyk], it broke me (complimentary)

May I endlessly shout about The Everlasting by Alix E. Harrow?!? I read it in two sittings and ugly cried through the last third.

Thank you!

Can't wait to read it! (fwiw, I've been working on a book about the history of disease maps with lots of 20th century Ann Arbor and Chicago examples)

Oh--this looks fantastic. Congratulations!

The Everlasting

I've called my senators. Have you?

Abortion was phase I, trans healthcare was phase II, birth control is phase III

You're welcome 😜

Midwestern Goodbye

I donated. If you're able, consider donating rent funds.

i am so tired of screaming from the rooftops that we have a looming, avoidable crisis of evictions brewing.

everyone knows it, but yet government and philanthropy have no solutions. unpaid volunteers of rent funds are doing the work that the people who control the purse strings refuse to do

COVID-19 vaccination status during pregnancy and preeclampsia risk: the pandemic-era cohort of the INTERCOVID consortium COVID-19 vaccination with a booster reduces the odds of PE by 30% approaching 60% reduction among women with pre-existing morbidities.

Remember when RFK Jr. unilaterally decided that COVID19 vaccines should no longer be recommended during pregnancy?

Well, COVID19 increases the risk of preeclampsia.

And it turns out that getting boosted, either before or during pregnancy, significantly reduces the risk of preeclampsia.

“parental rights” is such an ugly freedom. It’s the freedom of parents to abuse children, to limit what their children learn to their own prejudices, and to keep domestic violence and sexual abuse a secret in the home

"I sent three boats" but it's a vaccine and your children suffer the consequences.
