I don't know Eli but I know Kate and would trust them with my life or even more important, my cats, so I'm entirely sure this one's a legit need for help. Maybe you can help? <3
My friend Eli needs help paying their property taxes, to keep a roof over their head.

I've known Eli since college. They're waiting on their disability appeal to be processed, and have been slammed by bad financial luck in 2025. Can you donate? Can you signal-boost?

My anxiety had been so bad. I could t get together with anyone today due to the inability to leave the house.

I have had a sinus infection that had, until today, kind of inflated my face with swelling to the point that it was genuinely difficult to see that I’d had eye surgery, despite the massive bruise.

Is this a joke? We do not sympathize or empathize with those who choose to be Nazis.
Just thinking... we give so much attention (as we should!) to the victims of state violence, ie, people sent to CECOT.

But, we give little consideration to the psychic violence suffered by those tasked with carrying out the physical violence.

Yes, they "chose" those jobs. But...

Anyway, do I have a cover for one of my novels that's coming out next year? No, not yet. Do I have five minutes to goof off in Canva while I wait for a phone call? Yes, yes I do.

Are you having a tough time and need some books to look forward to? Well this thread is full of sterling recommendations!
Every time I cough, my torn rib tissue feels like it's being stabbed. HELP ME! Raise my spirits!

My plea: name me three Fantasy, SciFi, and/or Horror novels you're excited for next year. Bonus points if you can give me reasons why you're excited for them!

There’s a fountain pen in this book and it’s later referred to as a silver-tipped pen and, like, not *impossible* I guess? But now I’m hung up on the improbable nature of the fountain pen being anything but the most common: gold or steel with a tiny bit of iridium alloy.

I'm also just somewhat befuddled by someone trying to "break in" at a fantasy convention in the 2020s. like, what is the imagined scenario here, rappelling down from the ventilation shaft to hijack somebody's three-martini lunch and wow them with your elevator pitch
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

I have enjoyed Christmas Eve dinner, Christmas Day breakfast and Boxing Day brunch with my brother, SIL, nieces and assorted aunts and cousins. It’s been good.

People are harshing on some “diverse reading challenge” thing that’s going around, and I get it, but looking at what you read and asking yourself “what isn’t represented here?” is imo a good and healthy practice
