Cover for THE KING MUST DIE, illustrated by the amazing Eleonor Piteira.

On a planet damaged by rushed terraforming, a bodyguard-turned-reluctant rebel joins the last dregs of her parents’ failed uprising...

THE KING MUST DIE is out today! If you love stories about found families, revolutions, and second chances, this book’s for you.

as someone terminally on Tumblr... this is true. Also good ideas, selfies in cosplay with your book. Post infodumps about your inspiration/random facts that inspired your book. tumblr loves infodumps

A friend helps run a large food bank serving our state. Asked her how things look. For every 1 meal provided by a food bank, SNAP provides 9. They’re looking at a tenfold increase in need within days. There hasn’t been a threat of mass hunger in America like this in living memory. Help if you can 🍽️

No, ABA therapy is NOT the gold standard for supporting autistic children: “Those studies that report children making long-term gains in functioning are of middling scientific quality, casting doubt on the therapy’s status as an authoritative treatment.”

you know that "oh, I should have said this" thoughts you get about conversations hours, months, years afterwards?
Yeah, I get that about public speaking. Probably because I wing everything, cause half the time it works out fine.
But the other half... ouch...

This is not about fighting antisemitism. This is all about silencing opposing views. Today it’s pro-Palestine, tomorrow it’s pro-Ukraine, and then it’s just deporting whomever they don’t like. And then everyone is silent.

some helpful reminders:

-not all jews support israel
-criticizing israel is not the same as being antisemitic
-being pro-palestine does not equal being pro-hamas
-arresting someone for being pro-palestine is a violation of the first amendment
-violating someone’s first amendment rights is bad

i recently discovered that i CAN tolerate wool, and now i want #wool #socks. please save me from attempting to #knit my own, any suggestions?

reasons why I think my new meds/dosage is working: I actually have the motivation and drive to WRITE!!

A graphic image showing that children and babies get DTaP vaccine and that teens, adults and pregnant women get the Tdap vaccine against whooping cough. It is a blue infographic. The children are wearing blue overalls and a green dress. The pregnant woman has a bun in her hair and is wearing a white dress and a green jacket.

US whooping cough cases soar, but public knowledge of contagious disease is low buff.ly/3VMLKxm

Cases of whooping cough (Pertussis) surged 6x in the US in 2024.
Most people do not realize that pertussis and whooping cough are the same disease or that vaccination can prevent it.

I have a hard time believing that a guy who cleanly got away with a high profile murder would be detained days later carrying not only the murder weapon and silencer, but a manifesto about insurance companies. For an otherwise well executed plan, that seems a little sloppy.

"You're not like my 8 year old autistic son!"

Many things are out of kids control - uncomfy clothes, loud noises, food, confusing rules.

As an adult, I make my own choices. I wear, eat and do what I like, if I don't, I get overloaded.

That's why I don't remind you of your 8 year old autistic son.

Çatalhöyük: Its Story Continues - JSTOR Daily Our understanding of the Neolithic city of Çatalhöyük continues to evolve as archaeologists challenge inherited biases in the face of new material evidence.

“[w]e are not witnessing a patriarchy or a matriarchy. What we are seeing is perhaps more interesting—a society in which, in many areas, the question of whether you were a man or a woman did not determine the life you could lead.”

on one hand, denying care to autistic people is bad
on the other hand, ABA is abuse

BREAKING: Amazon workers in NYC are going on strike right before Christmas—the company's busiest time.

The first unionized Amazon warehouse is going to shut down in a historic walkout.

ABA is a racket. A “therapy” developed by a sadist that traumatizes autistic people. A self-perpetuating grift w/its own certification&journals. Lots of things can help autistic people that insurance should cover but doesn’t bc ABA cornered what shouldn’t be a market in the first place.

Things I have learned relatively recently: I don't like the way I look in trousers. I definitely do not like wearing jeans. So while I'm plotting to fill my closet with more skirts, I'm also wishing society would go back to robes and tunics

Thankfully, the pain meds *are* kicking in, and checking my bank account balance has squashed the McDonald's craving. I am now being visited by the gremlin cat

so THAT's why the website was down last night!!! WTF!!!

I have been awake since 6:30 (an hour and a half), am waiting for pain meds to kick in, and am contemplating ordering McDonald's cause I'm actually awake when they're serving McGriddles. Very tempting.

this is my late cat Puffy. I adopted her when she was 8 years old, from a friend's family who couldn't take care of her anymore. Apparently they had paperwork, and told me she was part Maine Coon. She was just so fluffy!!! and very loving and cuddly.
