How depressing is it when you’re like the only department in the US government that’s trying to keep citizens alive?
If you bought a new TV for the Super Bowl, make sure you anchor it to the wall.

So, with $28,000 of unavoidable, unexpected expenses in three weeks, I gotta run a Kickstarter for Pathfinder 1e material I've written already, but never sold as a book....
And it needs a name.

My granddaughter is full of adorable mayhem, but nothing will beat her uncle at that age: he used to put a plastic bucket on his head and run into, then bounce off the walls. You cannot explain preschoolers. You can only survive them.

Why 16 Oscar nominations for SINNERS matters, and why you've probably never heard of the oldest written Black vampire tale in North America. Happy Black History Month to all who celebrate!

Hey everyone!

Huge news! Our trans girl scout list has sold a total of 146,000 boxes as of today!

But MANY trans girl scouts only have 20, 30, 40 boxes sold.

I just resorted our list to put those on the top.

Go get your girl scout cookies and make a trans kid's day!

The problem with really, really loving a book (as I loved reading The Bookshop Below by Georgia Summers) is that it’s very hard to settle into a new fictional world after.

Nonfiction it is, then. Anyone got a factual favorite they’ve read recently?

On January 24th, my parents home burned down. They and my disabled brother escaped with only minor burns but they lost everything they've ever had.

I'm running a GoFundMe to help them recover and rebuild. I would be deeply grateful for any donations but also for any shares!

Took a break from reading to explain the Barings Bank debacle to the Plague. I love fiscal malfeasance!

I’m hoping that the fantasy novel I’m starting to read tonight holds my interest. With so much awful stuff going on, it’s important to figure out how to maintain equilibrium.
