They passed whole ass laws so people couldn’t wear masks after Covid rules were lifted.
If I remember correctly, didn’t the republicans demand that Black Lives Matter protesters not wear masks??

Several people have died in ICE custody and because of ICE detention. Renee Goode’s murder is a crime everyone could plainly see but make no mistake, there are many families who will never see their father, mother, sibling, or parent again because of ICE.

Black people five years ago: you know, they can kill anyone they want to out there

Everybody today: hot damn, did you know they can kill anyone they want to out there?

I had success over at that other place doing something similar to this, so I'm hoping to find those people again.

I'm a horror and sci-fi author who writes novels and short stories to deal with the crumbling world around me.

Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein was an excellent interpretation of the original text. Definitely go see it if you can!

Cover reveal for my forthcoming novel, Island X! I'm absolutely thrilled with how this came out. Joey at Mad Axe Media completely understood my vision.

Watching Soylent Green for the first time. The dystopic parts make for good sci fi still but the machismo makes me want to puke/DNF. #butitwasadifferenttime 🤮

Definitely watched part of Weapons though my fingers, but did anyone else feel a little misled by the opening narration?

There was some excellent body horror in Together. I do have some questions about the drugs... But of course I do.

Finished the rough draft of my WIP on the flight back from Necon. It feels like an awful, no good, very bad draft, but it's done and can really only get better. So grateful for all the support this weekend that pushed me to the end. 🖤

It's nice to not have to remove our shoes at the airport anymore, but this morning at COS one of the agents said "no peanut butter, no jelly, no 8 tracks,"so some rules are still questionable to say the least.

Health insurance in the US is a racket and I'm ready to run head first into a wall.
