Tonight there is a draft for a women’s pro baseball league and on Saturday I will watch the women’s soccer team I support play for a championship after their most successful season yet, surrounded by other diehard fans at a bar. I am living in a world 8-year-old me could have never imagined.

I’m angry.
They call it a “peace plan” -
I call it a plan to give up everything
We fight for.
Our land.
Our army.
Our sovereignty.
Our dignity.
No deal is worth that🇺🇦

I entered THE FREEZER to London Indie Film Festival, via @filmfreeway.bsky.social. It's the script for a short film based on the true story of a student who, after a drunken night out, goes looking for food and ends up getting locked in a walk-in freezer. He must escape, or face a slow, cold death.

Poverty and disability often go together.
It’s difficult to “try harder” your way out of financial problems when you lose your health.
The pull yourselves up by your bootstrap mentality goes out the window if you’re bedbound.
It can happen to anyone at any time.
They aren’t moral failings.

Unsolicited writing advice, no. 1836:
Don't write the book you think 'people will buy'. No one knows for sure what people will buy, incuding the people who sell books. Instead, write the book you need to write. The book that makes a difference.
