I need more documentaries where the "bad guys" get what they've got coming. No more dead/missing women, pls.

So far I've got...
Fyre
Bad Vegan
Titan
Bikram
The Tinder Swindler
Murdaugh Murders*
Murder Among the Mormons
Keep Sweet: Pray & Obey

*has dead women

What are some other good ones?

Just got cold call negged by a marketer.

"Everyone says your book is great but you're totally invisible! You should be on BookTok!"

(Apparently my 6k BookTok is "invisible." Possibly because I previously blocked this person.)

Today I'm thankful for Texas state required reading in school ('95 - '02).

Midwife's Apprentice and Isle of the Blue Dolphins taught me life alone as a woman is rich and meaningful and you can have pets.

Hatchet and Voyage of the Frog taught me men are fucked the second they can't be with people.

My most successful tiktoks are six seconds of me staring at the camera with a block of bitchy text over my face.

I'm trying not to take it personally.

Grew my BookTok account to 6k in 6 months by posting my face and white text. The specific combo of keywords and (nominal) white-girl-pretty sure gets the algo going. It also rewards me for bitching about my age!

Here's my most viral post this month at a whopping 220k views:

My facebook got hacked so I guess I'm a permanent resident on bluesky. Gotta get this bad boy brushed up before my new book comes out next year!

And yes, I left Oculus. Retired to write books, more specifically.

Hope you like fantasy and sci-fi because I've been at both since 6th grade.

So I just had to explain to my boomer mom that yes, she is part of a "throuple."

And no, the Xennial kids of her partners do not have to like it. Because even in an era of radical tolerance, she is by definition the other woman fucking their dad. And also the siren who turned their mom gay.

I left my job at Meta after 5 years on Oculus Publishing.

It's a weird, scary thing to do in the games business when so many of my friends face monthly layoffs.

But I don't want to waste my 40s waiting for someone else's midlife crisis.

On a sixth attempt at Honor Run. Baldur's Gate owns my soul.

Spending inordinate amounts of time trying to convince booktok to abandon ACOTAR in favor of BG3.

How else are you supposed to know she's โœจmagicโœจ if she's not holding an orb? God forbid we mistake her for an ordinary chick.

Back to work means back to social media. Here's how I spent my FMLA:

- signed my first book deal
- wrote 20k words on a new book
- failed Honor Mode on BG3 five times
- dodged the layoff axe at Facebook
- Discovered Solo Leveling

#BlackDoves is peak Netflix targeted marketing for women.

Glamor! Spies! Tradwife family but it's a feminist LIE! Hot gay sex! Athliesure you can't afford!

I don't like what this algorithm says about me.

I'm consistently impressed how far the games industry has come with hair.

Obligatory post to get myself out of new account jail.

Video games! Fantasy books! Trashy romance! The right kind of sci-fi! (For some reason I am the most picky about sci-fi!)

Lot of politics showing up in my feed. Could I get some more games, please? Maybe some strong opinions on Veilgaurd?

I don't get why so many people romanced Astarion in #bg3 - it's like doing it with Stewie Griffin. You can't fix an accent with sex.

So are we all watching the Netflix Tyson fight? Have we recreated "live" moments on this app?

Sorry for all the questions but it's my third-ever post and my algo is still up in the air.
