Started my day with a DM asking me to do professional translation work for free because "I promise I'm a good person and I've always advocated for paying creatives."

Are you sure? Because that's literally the opposite of what you're doing right now by saying you can't pay me.

I! LOVE! INTERACTIVE! FICTION!!!

Not now, carnivorous death ball

In Utah, Trump’s Vision for Homelessness Begins to Take Shape

Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

Vital reporting from @ellenbarry.bsky.social and Jason DeParle:

Podcast episode graphic with a photograph of a woman with brown hair looking toward the camera at an angle, smiling slightly. On the right, teal text reads "Drafting the Past Episode 72: Joanne Paul."

New! I had great fun talking w/ @drjoannepaul.bsky.social about how she embraces creativity and artistry and how she writes vividly about Tudor history. If you've ever dreamed of writing a history that reads almost like a novel, you're going to love this episode. draftingthepast.com/podcast-epis...
