You've made a wise choice. 👍
As well as posting silliness and hope for a better world I also write books (full of silliness and hope for a better world). Start with this free book of shorts written to introduce you to the #steampunk world of Hammersmyth.

Like if NYC real estate hadn’t been so rotten he wouldn’t have been a media personality; if media hadn’t been so rotten he wouldn’t have been a superstar; if the GOP hadn’t been so rotten he wouldn’t have been able to take it over; if SCOTUS hadn’t been so rotten, etc.

Dear Humans,
Trump is in a full out panic. He hasn’t posted in 24 hours. It’s time to make him the pedophile formerly known as president. If you could do that God would be so happy.

Also, I saw something saying that it's number one of quite a niche and small chart that is easy to game.
So looking at the actual SF chronicle article, the only place this song is accruing notice is on Spotify, which is easily gamed by bots. If I were an AI proponent who desperately needed to boost the validity of my investment, this is exactly what I’d do.

Thinking today how homelessness runs through this story, through Epstein's (Virginia Guiffre had been homeless before meeting him), and even through Gaiman's (his nanny was sleeping on the beach when Palmer recruited her, and he used threats of homelessness against another victim).

Reading about the rapid collapse of Eastern European governments in 1989 as completely rotten and corrupt leaderships disintegrated when people realised fear was all that was holding them up. Apropos of nothing.

I already do a Draft 0 when writing, so I don't feel constrained by the first draft. This is just a natural extension of that.
I'm waiting for the day someone calls the prologue 'Chapter 0' or 'Chapter 0.5' instead.

Starmer is finished. It will all be over come May’s elections when Labour goes down in flames. Scotland specifically will be his Waterloo. Far be it from me to assist the most unpopular PM ever, but he has one chance to save himself: campaign to reverse Brexit
