It's so funny to me that right-wingers love to pretend to love the Middle Ages and the Crusades and all that and then complain that the Pope shouldn't get involved in politics.

"I see mother has provided me with a new human to love. I shall commence doing my duty."

This is how I learn there is a new Count of Monte Cristo on PBS and add it to my watch list 😂

I told my boss I'm grateful to have the job because it forces me to disengage from the trainwreck. He told me he views his own job the same way. Ugh.

Email from a bookstore: Hey did you buy this book? There's a copy in store here that's supposed to be for you.

Me:

a “ceasefire” that lasted 17 hours and killed 254 people in lebanon is not a ceasefire and referring to it as one is inaccurate

The ebook covers for Deal with the Devil, The Devil you Know, and Dance with the Devil. All three are on sale for $2.99 each in april

Once upon a time @totallydonna.kitrocha.com & I wrote a trilogy about book nerds in a dystopian future who just wanted to build a library but the tech bros wouldn't stop being evil so they did community organizing & crimes.

They are ON SALE this month for $2.99!

I don't want healthy food that tastes healthy. LOL I want healthy food that my brain goes "yum gimme more!" and I don't even really engage with "it's healthy and good for me"

/2 out of them and make the Iranian regime look like the good guys and instead of fighting against their own government, the Iranian people have had to turn focus to fighting *us*

I saw a thread the other day that previous "soft power" and sanction policies against Iran were already doing the job of taking down the Iranian regime. Had we kept on like that, it was a matter of time before the Iranian people toppled the regime themselves. But no, now we had to bomb the shit 1/

That's what the sky on these hills looked like in the 1980s, before all the light pollution.

“He didn’t literally mean he would wipe out an entire civilization”

Then he shouldn’t have fucking said it.

He’s the President of the United States. He has sole launch authority over the world’s most sophisticated nuclear arsenal, and words mean things.

These miserable reps have literal interns answering the phone. The youngest and most vulnerable and powerless people in their offices are the ones talking to the public, hearing these anguished cries for action. That's a massive moral failing of these politicians.

Dystopian where there is actually a guaranteed HEA is so much better than the real dystopia we're living through so I support this.

If Congress, could, you know, do SOMETHING that would be great.

I very much feel like a talking monkey just trying to get by, knowing how ill equipped I am to handle the complicated and horrific nature of American society.

And if you laugh too much, or if you smile too wide, you're afraid people don't think you're taking it seriously, but if you don't smile or laugh, there's nothing but crumbling to dust.

This.

You have to go to work and operate like a normal worker bee under capitalism all the while wondering if the person at the front desk is a MAGA operative trying to get your neighbors deported.

My dude you are a sitting senator. You have power to stop this.

"Moon's haunted"

I cannot wait. I'm so excited!

Nope. I thought it was my internet but everything else is fine.

I would absolutely be trying to break my contract and possibly suing if I were one of these authors.

Wikipedia bans AI-generated articles Wikipedia is done with AI slop.

The update, which was added to Wikipedia’s guidelines late last week, cites the tendency for AI-written articles to violate “several of Wikipedia’s core content policies” as the reason for the ban.

As a serious, hobbyist athlete, I am genuinely disgusted by any cis female athlete who has so little faith in their own athletic skills they think they need protection from other competitors and -especially- from other women.

expanded cover for The Feywild Job by C. L. Polk. Two trees whose branches have grown together to make a bridge provide a place for Saeldian, genderfluid Archfey Warlock, and Kell, male College of Glamour Bard, to sit, relax, and probably bicker a bit for the fun of it.

B&N has 25% off preorders

I'm trying to write some tropey hook thinger for the gram but The Feywild Job is 25% if you use PREORDER25 when you order it from Barnes & Noble TODAY or TOMORROW

This looks like bland corporate stock photos. Nothing about this says "queer hockey romance" to me. If I passed this in a bookstore not knowing what heated rivalry is, I would have no idea what the book was about.
