I do not like your AI slop
I do not want this worthless glop
I do not read its overviews
I don't care what Grok says is true
I do not like it here nor there
I'm tired of it everywhere

I would not, could not, in my docs
Please get out of Firefox
I would not, could not, on the phone
Please just leave my calls alone
I will not, will not, even free
LLMs, just leave me be!

Great fun celebrating the release of "Treasure of Ocean Parkway" with @sarvenaztash.bsky.social and @lancerubinparty.bsky.social tonight! Lived hearing them talk about the writing process, and can't wait to dive into the book!

Sophia threw a "Halloween at Hogwarts" party, and I took the prompt as a chance to cosplay the Fat Lady, after she's been brutally victimized by Sirius Black! Honestly, what kind of man starts slashing up innocent portraits?

There will be so many things to say about the legendary Nancy Pelosi's transformational tenure in Congress—but for now, let's start with "Thank you, Madam Speaker."

"it's inevitable" has never struck me as a compelling argument for AI. never seen a genuinely useful technology ushered in with the enthusiasm of a tired mom coming to terms with the fact that her kids are going to pick up foot fungus at a community pool.

I just read the sweetest book - "Confessions from the Group Chat" by Jodi Meadows! These MG rom-coms are like a warm hug, I just wish it could have gone on longer!

hpboy13's review of Confessions From the Group Chat
5/5: Jodi Meadows is 2-for-2 with her adorable middle-grade rom-coms set in Deer Hill. This book was lovely to read – it was such a treat, that I just wish I’d spent longer reading it than the 2 days...

Bonus costume! Yelena and I wanted our Freaky Friday outfits to be a big dramatic reveal when we performed. I'd already gotten the nightgown for the costume, and I'd purchased a lot of wolf paraphernalia for the release of MALFOY, so... closet cosplay of Big Bad Wolf and Red Riding Hood!

It was an awesome Halloween - great company, and a really fun night out! Any Halloween festivities that get me home at 3:30am can be considered a success. I got to walk through the parade demanding the crowd "woohoo" (a la the talkshow in the movie); we had quite a few fans!

With Halloween on a Friday, things got a little... Freaky! Here's what happened when Yelena and I landed on the idea of a #FreakyFriday performance at our school's Halloween social!

Happy #Halloween from Anna, I mean Tess Coleman! With Halloween on a Friday this year, is it any wonder things got a little freaky? #FreakyFriday
(I knew I'd do this for Halloween the minute I saw #FreakierFriday in theaters - iykyk)

5pm on November 1: let’s go for a walk, it’s still light out!

5pm on November 2: an early darkness blankets the land. Fallow fields lay bone-bleached by moonlight. The last memories of summer fade into oblivion. The last echoes of hope lapse into baleful silence.

For some characters, Halloween is nothing but trauma!

Happy book birthday to Confessions From The Group Chat by @jodimeadows.bsky.social! Got my copy and I'm so excited to start reading!

The last 52 hours have been some of the most joyous, most creative, most exhausting of my life. #MalfoyCon - what an effort, what a payoff, what a celebration! Truly a weekend I'll never forget.

This week, it was great getting to visit @mugglecast.bsky.social again to talk about Spinner's End, one of the most elegant and Malfoy-iest chapters in the series!

One of an author's indulgences - making merch for my book launch! I'm having so much fun.
I know enough that this isn't a profitable endeavor, but I give myself a budget of $150 to make cool little buttons and bracelets to give out to celebrate the occasion!

when they said there'd be bread and circuses, they should have specified that the bread would cost 200% more than it did four years ago and the circuses are only available on your least favourite streaming network for $19.99/month

Yesterday would've been my grandpa's 86th birthday - it's unplanned, but fitting that the book I dedicated to him came out the same week. For 2 years, between my dad's passing and his own, he was my main father figure. Wish he was still around to celebrate both occasions with me.

Yesterday was the happy book birthday for MALFOY by @darklordofdance.bsky.social ! In case Malfoys happen to be on your mind, for some reason!

It's real!!! I walked into @booksofwonder.bsky.social and there it was, on the shelf! This'll never not be mind-blowing!
