Jersey! Do the thing.

Hope this is just a little cold and not something worse. Drinking hot toddys and eating the pumpkin conchas that are more like scones. Cats are napping with me on the couch. #resting

Hey London folks: come join me for this next week! It’s going to be a great night! wegottickets.com/event/676292

If you happen to be in London on October 10th, this will be a great time!

If I could get 6 months and an actual line to real work I would be ever so grateful . But also if surviving means I destroy this all and go ghost .

So be it because I have support but my support doesn’t have resources

Call Gavin Newsom's office like you called ABC/Disney/Sinclair/Nexstar

Will they step down if they lose? I'm less optimistic.

Will SCOTUS go "heads we win tails you lose"? Maybe! Wouldn't be the first time!

But 2000 wouldn't have worked if the race was less close.

I'm for using every tool in the shed. Voting is one tool. It works best when you hit it really hard.

Making comments on posts that may result in fights. Organizing My thoughts for blog posts. Then shop paperwork.

The pain we put ourselves through to have grounded criticisms 😔

But generally I agree with you @karidru.bsky.social and would just leave it. If empathy can be toxic has been annoying me though and I'd like to know my specific critiques

I only have 1 thing I want to do that with and only because my degrees in English have me feel that I need to read a book to critique it effectively. But I don't want to give the writer money. Will probably borrow from a library now though because it's finally available and pirating too much work.

SCAM ALERT: If by chance you get contacted by a group advertising themselves as the “Crazy Old Bats Book Club” who would like to charge you for reading your book in their book club, and who claim I am one of the Satisfied Authors, and furthermore give you an email address for me—it’s not me.

Can you help Laura Anne help Castiel?

At the top is an image of Apprehension and Red Star Hustle; each side of the book has a different cover. The text says "Apprehension + Red Star Hustle. Mary Robinette Kowal + Sam J. Miller. Now available for preorder. Coming October 21, 2025: A Saga Doubles from Simon & Schuster. Link in bio."

Cover of Apprehension by Mary Robinette Kowal, Hugo and Nebula Award-Winning Author. Two people (an older woman and a younger male figure) stand on a sci-fi street with vivid purples and pinks.

Red Star Hustle by Nebula Award-Winning Author, Sam J. Miller. A figure runs down a dark street with sci-fi city imagery and glowing graffiti.

Just in case I haven't shouted gleefully about it enough lately, @sentencebender.bsky.social and I have a Saga Double coming out on October 21. You can preorder now from @sagapressbooks.bsky.social here: www.simonandschuster.com/books/Red-St...

Learned Westminister has a court house. Had to show up to sit in the jury pool. Also picking fights on the internet because I left my laptop in the car. #civicduty

I also had some thoughts on the events today and wanted to process them on the site. englishnerd.net/on-the-death...

Hey you. Yes, you. Do you have your video autoplay turned OFF absolutrly everywhere you go on the internet?

You wanna do that.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

Already have a severe dislike of ai content. I'll stick to my podcast list of too many unheard episodes by real people i want to listen to. #missmewiththis

They want massive concentration camps. When you find out which businesses are profiting from these anti-human enterprises, cut them off.
