These are concentration camps and its our duty as citizens to ensure these things don't get built.

"They had Marimar Martinez on a dangerous activists list before they shot her" and "NIH is out of the business of pandemic preparation" and "they taunted the hungry children at Dilley with Thanksgiving food for the jailers" and "a lot of those empty PDFs are abuse videos" was all today

Discord lied.

they’re now sending scanned IDs to persona, a third party company.

“facial scans will never leave your device” -discord lmao.

Gender affirming treatment has an astonishingly high rate of satisfaction. You probably already know this, but I feel like we need to repeat it over and over.

I can imagine 😟

But also, figure skating podcast??? Cool!!!

It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

It’s the Epstein Administration.

No wonder Bondi spent the entire hearing screeching and deflecting.

This has been such a dream series to work on with the absolute best group of authors and collaborators. Many years in the making, but it all comes down to this.

Disgusting but perfectly on theme

‘No Reason He Should Have Died’: Alex Pretti’s Parents Open Up

Alex Pretti's parents keep a box crammed with 200 letters and cards that have poured into their Denver home since their son was shot and killed by immigration agents.

"He's my first born," Susan Pretti said. "He's the one that made me a mother. There was no reason he should have died that day."

Epstein survivor Danielle Bensky: Don't let this be about politics. 1 in 4 women have been abused, and there are men who have been abused as well. To just not even acknowledge survivors is just beyond disheartening and a slap in the face.

I might throw up if these French skaters take gold 🤢

The book club scam has taken an exciting new leap forward. I got one today from a "curated literary platform and newsletter" that, unusually, offered a link to its website. I'm in edits, so obviously I took the opportunity to procrastinate. /1

Happy for my city today 💙💚

Cover art featuring Moon Knight/Venom, Kitty Pryde, Scarlet Witch, Loki and America Chavez in the foreground, with Victor von Doom superimposed in the background. Title text: "What If...The Multiverse was Doomed?" An Avengers of the Multiverse Story

America Chavez must gather a team of heroes to make their final stand against Doctor Doom and save Franklin Richards. So many worlds, so little time. Infinite possibilities, creating infinite realities. Long have we watched Doctor Doom claw after power, dominion, and godhood. But what if there was a higher calling just out of his reach? What if he would tame the entire cosmos to claim it? What if… a Watcher saved the Multiverse? Victor von Doom was never one to simply accept his fate. He swept his way across the vast labyrinth of the Multiverse, altering the course of universe after universe. But their sacrifice was one he was willing to make. Every new world granted him the means to conquer his destiny and embrace something bigger than himself, a fate beyond the confines of his own reality. And at long last he has the final piece he needs to uncover the whereabouts of the person this was all for: a boy named Franklin. America Chavez and Kitty Pryde are battered and broken. Thrown together by the wreckage of a shattered universe, they realize that even with the Phoenix Force barely contained within Kitty, they need a team. A team who has as much skin in the game as they do. So America must gather the nexus beings that survived Doom—Loki, the Scarlet Witch, and Venom-Moon Knight—to make one last stand. Love is an immutable constant in all of reality. But it also is the catalyst for the greatest change. Taking up arms as Avengers of the Multiverse, the group must give up their comfort and security to find Franklin Richards before Doom. Can they save all of reality, or must they avenge everyone they’ve ever loved?

We OFFICIAL! Cover reveal for my latest: What If... The Multiverse Was Doomed? Holding this one in so long it felt like I dreamed it. We're live August, 4 2026.

Absolute madness how much effort it takes to be reasonably healthy and functional 😵‍💫

I’m watching the ICE occupation of Minnesota radicalize high school acquaintances who have never made a political statement in their lives.

Here they come!!!!

TO: newyork@relx.com ATTN: RELX CEO Erik Engstrom, Nick Luff (CFO), and Paul Ashton Walker (Chair) Re: Immediate Termination of contracts between RELX subsidiaries and ICE February 9th, 2026 Dear Erik Engstrom, Nick Luff, and Paul Ashton Walker, We are some of the authors that make events like BookCon—run by your subsidiary, ReedPop—possible. Another of your subsidiaries, LexisNexis, has a $22.1 million dollar contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), supplying them with the data they need to surveil and terrorize our neighbors, friends, and families.[1] We condemn any collaboration with ICE and call for the immediate termination of all contracts between RELX and ICE. ICE has a twenty-two year history of discrimination and abuse against immigrant communities. Under the current administration, their efforts have escalated in both violence and visibility—enabled by their partners in big data, including LexisNexis.[2] RELX is a multinational corporation worth $40 billion, of which events like BookCon are only a small fraction. Our power is limited. But BookCon advertises itself as a place where "fantasy meets reality,"[3] and the reality is that RELX is profiting from mass terror against communities of color, including the murder of eight people this year alone. The fantasy is that a bunch of readers and authors could ignore it; we know a villain when we see one. We, as authors, intend to honor our immediate commitments to BookCon and to our readers. If RELX chooses to renew their current contract with ICE–which expires on February 28, 2026[4]–we will be forced to reevaluate our association with all future ReedPop events.

if you're an author attending BookCon this year (or, to be honest, any other ReedPop events, which include NYCC), and would like to add your name to the letter: forms.gle/V7m2YbcGguAY...

Translation: “I am Maria Antonia Guerra Montoya and I have been 113 days in detention I miss my friends and I feel they are going to forget me. I am bored here. I already miss my country and my house, I came on vacation for 10 Days and they took me into an ice office an officer interrogated me 2 hours without my mom, I was traveling with flight attendant because my mom lives in new york, they only wanted to arrest my mom, because my mom didn’t have documents to live in U.S.A., I always traveled with my tourist visa but ice used me to catch my mom and now I am in a jail and I am sad and I have fainted 2 times here inside. When I arrived every night I cried and now I don’t sleep well, I felt that being here was my fault and I only wanted to be on vacation like a normal family.”

9-year-old Maria Antonia Guerra Montoya, detained on her way to Disney World, spent 113+ days at Dilley.

You're laughing? The team that lends their plane for deportation flights and whose owner is best pals with Trump got utterly humiliated in front of a hundred million viewers, and you're laughing?

11 years ago, the Seahawks lost the Super Bowl on an insane goal line interception that opened a vortex to the McDonald’s Nazi hell we’ve lived in since. Tonight, with the Patriots defeat, we usher in the age of Woke 2

Keep seeing the misinformation that this was Liam on here--has been reported that it was not

Amber Glenn, a queer Texan who started ice skating at the stonebriar mall in frisco at age 5, who plays magic the gathering, is an olympic gold medalist

So uh Ring just up and said they've got a huge centralized private surveillance network they can leverage all at once huh

Hope is kindled 🥹
