Imagine having had your stories accepted by the iconic Weird Tales Mag 28 times. This beauty of a collection from Tanith Lee contains every single one of them.🖤
It took me a while to get through them all, but the journey was well worth it.

"More than 200" AI slop novels collectively selling "around 50,000 copies" proves that not one of them was actually good enough to create any organic interest. The entire business model is scamming people looking for something fun to read, thereby polluting the same waters where real books are sold.
fuck this lady, fuck the nyt reporter, fuck all of this. fuck amazon for introducing the KU page read model that makes this possible, fuck our tech overlords.

I will not vote for any candidate who runs with "we need to move forward" and refuses to prosecute this administration for every single one of their crimes. Accountability is all.

Schiff on Gabbard's involvement in Georgia: "All of this is intended to send a message and the message is, 'We will not tolerate or accept an election that we lose.' That's why in these budget discussions we need to make sure, among other things, that we don't have ICE agents at polling places."

This place has gotten a lot more nasty and strange in recent weeks.
I know what we’re living through is brutal, and also calling someone MAGA-adjacent for refusing to capitulate to doom and advocating for folks to take action is some next level weird shit (that happened to me yesterday).

My son's new favorite game is "Dinosaur."
The rules of Dinosaur are that whenever he says "Dinosaur!" I become a dinosaur and chase him around the house.
If you're waiting on a draft of something from me and you don't have it yet it's because I'm playing Dinosaur, which is the Best Game.

Just returned home from the anti-ICE protest in Portland today. A 100% peaceful crowd that the Portland Police Department (PPD) estimated to be "in the thousands" marched past ICE's Portland HQ.
ICE, of course, responded with a barrage of tear gas and chemical rounds to suppress free speech.
