Just got deseret Book ad. An app that promises no surprise spice and curated "clean" romance. Tag line "join your proper romance era".

Slut shaming is in I guess.

just call them close door romances and stop defining your romance as the morally correct type.

My content’s going to be obnoxious today & tomorrow, fair warning. I’m trying to hit my goal of 500 paid subscribers in Bindery for my birthday tomorrow and I am 115 away. So I will be obnoxious as I try to make that happen over the next 48 hours. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I have a few books I'm reading for an upcoming author conversation I get to HOST. (Still not over this) But Luminous by Silvia Park has me by the throat so I'm reading that instead.

The human on robot crime has me hoping for an unusual robots win storyline over a Black Beauty ending.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

If we're doing groceries and take-out discourse, here's my take:

Man-made famines are crimes against humanity.

If you can help the World Central Kitchen in Gaza, please do. Donate dollars. Call your reps. Share their story in your communities to invite help.

Someone will probably call this hyperbole. To which I say, you've been calling every true prediction about this hyperbole for years.
So the executive order today that not only criminalizes but institutionalizes mental health disabilities is not only super Nazish- but also can be used to easily set up legal pretense to label folks like trans people as “mentally ill” so they can round us up into prisons or camps.

AFTER he was released, instead of an apology: "On Tuesday morning, while boarding his flight to Vermont, Chavarria said he received an email from U.S. Customs and Border Protection: his Global Entry permission had been revoked. No reason was given."
"They falsely stated that I, a U.S. citizen, have no Constitutional rights at a point of entry, and officers became increasingly agitated as I continued to assert my rights regardless."

We now have a concentration camp in Florida.

Stop pretending any of this is normal.

If you claim to be a good person and you're not outwardly opposing this regime, you're not a good person.

Be human.

They’re planning on building a detention center for migrants in the middle of the fetid swamps of Florida.

If you think this is something new, the first internment camp they sent me and my family to in 1942 was a barbed wire prison called Rohwer. It was located in the swamps of Arkansas.
