Here's an updated guide to my books, including the one that comes out in November 2024. Fantasy and sci-fi romance with bisexual main characters 💖 www.feliciadavin.com/ for more info

when I come across a small action that MIGHT help make the world better, like "cancel Spotify" or "transfer my newsletter away from Substack," even though these things are small in the grand scheme and inconvenient to me, my main reaction is relief that there is something within my power TO DO
this happens 1-2 times a day. what are people still doing over there?

are you all not desperate to do every possible tiny action that could somehow get us out of this hell we have made!!

tonight I ran across a newsletter about parenting and video games that I would've been interested in reading, but it was on Substack, so I read something else instead

shameful that @massgovernor.bsky.social has the power to end this 287(g) contract and refuses to do it

Luis Perez served his time and he deserves to be with his family

Massachusetts should not work with these fascists in ANY capacity
Inside ICE’s Only Contract with a Blue State - Bolts
As part of a 287(g) contract between state officials and ICE, Massachusetts continues to release prisoners into deportation—even as state lawmakers look to ban other forms of ICE collaboration.

I spend time in the inbox, and every time I do I am struck by the bravery of people around this country who hear the stories they have of violence and who think, "I'm not taking this" instead of hiding in fear.

Also, @seanhollister.bsky.social has been hanging out with the Whistle Coven, and wrote a piece about it! The opening line is "Kit Rocha and Courtney Milan have a knack for drawing attention to a cause."

Our chaos field has been immortalized.

I’m not reading the article, but it kinda seems like the NYT profiled a scammer without calling her a scammer?

the magic of the Muppets is that there are two fourth walls. they constantly break the one that reminds the audience they are performers. they NEVER break the one that reminds the audience they are puppets. this dynamic is the key to their entire comedy style
MY KIDS: so why are there muppets in the AUDIENCE

ME: THE CONCEIT!! IS THAT THEY'RE PUTTING ON A VARIETY SHOW!!! IN A WORLD WHERE MUPPET AND HUMAN COEXIST!!! YOU ARE WATCHING A DOCUMENTARY!! FILMED!! IN REAL TIME!!!

in an era when carnivore diet influencers are in charge of the american nuclear arsenal we have to admit the "annoying vegan" stereotype barely ever actually existed and the "all meat diet guy" is real, increasingly omnipresent, and way more annoying and inconvenient to actually be around

The point of the AI project is to provoke despair in creative people. They haven’t produced profits or anything anyone wants, just a steady stream of articles about how us artistic types can’t do the thing we’re already doing, making art. Jokes on them, we’re even better at despair than they are.

I’m rereading AN ISLAND PRINCESS STARTS A SCANDAL for my library’s queer romance book club and Amazon updated the cover of the ebook from a photo of a beautiful woman to one that’s 80% whimsical typography with a teeny tiny illustration of 2 women

this is why I don’t buy ebooks from Amazon anymore

Sure this can happen in the bisexual socialist paradise of Iberville Parish Louisiana but what about Real America?
This looks to be an extraordinary overperformance for Dems. With more than three-fourth of the vote in, the Dem leads by more than 20%.

one of the greatest human triumphs of my lifetime is the relentless, unceasing, heroic effort by DECADES' worth of doctors and scientists to find a cure for a disease much of the world didn't take seriously for years because it predominantly affected a community they thought kinda deserved it
Just because good news is worth celebrating:

There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection.
