"It's a preorder giveaway": A paperback of Tea & Treachery by Jo Miles, charmingly badly photoshopped onto a table with a ceramic teapot, two cups of tea, and a small tower of tiny sandwiches and scones.

Every book is better with tea -- this one particularly so.

So I'm doing a giveaway: a curated goodie box of themed tea and snacks for 1 reader who preorders *Tea & Treachery at the Infinite Pantry*!

Preorder here: books2read.com/tea-treachery

Then upload your receipt: forms.gle/q2t2n28NAheg...

This is the bottom line you must demand from all your electeds— especially if they would like your support and vote this November or ever.

… and then what???

What happens to all the detainees of each background once they’ve been… sorted according to “perceived” immigration status?*

Mind you, the first 1/2 of the story @chrislhayes.bsky.social is quote skeeting is horrific enough, even before they sorted anyone.

The Department of Just Us
Or
The Department of Just Ice

Both work, unfortunately.

📌Our DOJ is going after patriots like Mark Kelly and protecting pedophiles and pedophile-adjacent sickos like Trump and seemingly half his cabinet.

THAT'S what law and order looks like under Republicans in America.

This is my book THE SCOTTISH BOY—coming out from its new publisher soon BUT you can get the audiobook now!

"Fight against being ass" is a message that more people need to receive, tbh

i am eventually going to have to find my way into making films and/or graphic novels, because i have (once again) spent all morning with a new idea that will be best served with a visual medium...gotta just get working on the book, divert the hyperfocus for a few hours, or my brain won't shut up 😂
