Delighted to be a guest again this year at the wonderful Gamehole Con. It's one of my favorite cons and @montecookgames.com has a balcony spot for gaming, relaxing, signing books, and chatting.
Who will I see there? I can't wait!

Ok, you MIGHT get salmonella from that sketchy chicken dude. FDA doesnβt care anymore, apparently.
you could buy a book about the horrors of an actual embodied artificial intelligence (as opposed to the horrors of "artificial intelligence", for a change!) and support local bookshops

Androgyny isn't the price of admission to being non-binary. The only requirement is knowing yourself. Stop policing bodies. Stop demanding "neutral." Non-binary = infinite ways to exist. Non-binary # androgyny. Mind your business.
Saw this the other day in one of my social streams and can't stop thinking about it.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) - The police chief of Nebraska's largest city acknowledged Friday that police nationwide are more likely to pull Black people out of their cars at gunpoint than other racial groups as Omaha grapples with growing outrage over champion boxer Terence "Bud" Crawford being ordered out of his car at gunpoint only hours after the city held a downtown celebration in his honor. "Quite frankly, that is generally a true statement. The number of stops are disproportionate. That is nationwide," Police Chief Tobb Schmaderer said at a news conference to address an internal investigation into Crawford's traffic stop.
