My library stocks awesome horror; I read @wnwagner.bsky.social’s new eco-horror Girl in the Creek in a single sitting. It’s beautiful and creepy and captivating. Oh, the Strangeness!! Remember: the holidays are comingβ€”put it on your lists! I hope it gets a movie option; it’ll be horror eye candy.

🧡Masked ICE thugs attempted to abduct the school nurse at Cooke Elementary School, located in the densely populated Adams Morgan section of DC. Workers at the school intervened, demanding a warrant and holding up their phones and ICE scurried off without making their arrest.

Generations of American patriots, from our revolution onward, have fought for the principles Zelenskyy is risking his life to defend. But today, Donald Trump and JD Vance attacked Zelenskyy and pressured him to surrender the freedom of his people to the KGB war criminal who invaded Ukraine.
