There is not enough Black SFF in movies and tv shows and it shows. To date, Nicole Beharie is the one of the few Black woman to ever lead a SFF tv show on a major tv network. This hasn't changed in the over the decade since Sleepy Hollow premiered. That is shameful!

Night night sweet dreamies

Be kind to yourself—especially now.
You’re carrying so much, facing things quietly.
You’re juggling more than anyone knows and still giving it your all and still showing up.

Be kind to yourself

I'm trying to figure out how to do the profitable social medias because my skills lie in Tumblr and Reddit, which I'm certain haven't really influenced anyone.

How do I learn the Instas.

OK book girlies

Do we like Pagebound or Storygraph?

Every time someone talks about how AI art or AI writing is the same as the intentional creation of human expression, I can't help but think of when flour was at a premium so Victorian bakers sold people "bread" made with plaster instead.

When you don't defend the innate authenticity of trans identities, everything else goes back up for grabs.
Terrible Gallup poll today. Lots of bad anti-trans sentiment, but this one really blew my mind and should be VERY eye opening to our LGB folks:

America is about to cross back over into being gay or lesbian is something that is caused externally (and therefore "fixable" with conversion therapy)

And this continuous decline from 2019-2020 to now is exactly concurrent with the emergence and rise of state-level anti-trans campaigns and trans youth care bans. There is a general factor of shared anti-trans and anti-gay sentiment that animates this, and there is no separating the LGB from the T

(🧵) Friendly reminder that if you’re overwhelmed right now and feel like there’s nothing you can do, you’re wrong! Not everything requires drone footage or the national news. Real change starts at the local level and it’s powerful. (1/23)

Here’s a thread of things you CAN do.

PSA: a copy edit isn't the same as a proof. An edited doc, esp. a novel-length MS, will almost certainly still contain errors - grammatical, spelling, typographical, you name it

Proofreading is a different skill than copyediting. It's a different *job*

Knowing you adds value.

Trauma Brain will try to convince you otherwise-- it's probably trying to do so right now, even as you read this-- but remember: Trauma Brain is not about truth. It's about making you feel a certain kind of way.

Your existence adds value to the world.

Was playing the little free indie game Excaliburian and was struck by a side character going off to curse himself to save the day and then showing up AFTER the day was saved.

Started with developing an absolute fuck up of a character and then the band of heroes.
