Does everyone understand now that establishment Democrats aren’t on our side?

How many braindead Libs still believe in these fucking two-faced leeches?

Hope y’all’re ready to vote them all out of office. If not, we’re heading straight off a cliff.

Free speech is at risk.

Oligarchs own everything.

The world is burning.

When I started writing my #dystopian #fantasy, The Eye of Atlas, in 2020, I worried the satire was too heavy-handed. It wasn’t.

If you haven’t read part one of my free-to-read short story, you’re missing out.

There’s a dragon, a brave (and perhaps misled) Prince, a cliffhanger ending.

So what are you waiting for?

I started writing my #dystopian #fantasty novel, The Eye of Atlas, five years ago. Crazy how the things I satirized—outlandish as they seemed—are coming to fruition.

WATCH: “The @nytimes.com was exposed for trying to manufacture a scandal about @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social — while in the process revealing a scandal about The NYT.”

This is the correct take. Sadly it will likely only be folks on TikTok who point it out😕

After noticing some errors, I went back and edited my new short story. Check it out if you’re into dark #fantasty.

It’s free. And with things being so expensive, what could be better?

Finally published part one of a two-part short story I’ve been working on. It’s free to read and chock-full of suspense.

And there’s a dragon . . .
