We are all guilty. We all built this.
I'm here, as you see. And I've curated my own subscriptions, like this one, that tell me what makes me feel vindicated. I'm guilty too.
If you read THE INHERITORS and thought it was too grim, this sort of realization is where I was coming from when I wrote it.

Hey, meteorology Bluesky: For the past day and a half, many of you've called for BLOCKS of liberal accounts for "spreading misinformation." Insisted that the cuts made no difference.
I.e., THAT THE NWS DIDN'T NEED THOSE VACANCIES FILLED.
That is how I SAID it would be taken, and I was right.

And not to toot my own horn, but I called all of this months ago in my novel. There's a scene in Chapter 5 where a character reflects on what is, to her, history. (My novel is set in 2051.)
I just hoped it would remain fictional.

The climb continues, now for the paperback too! I was frustrated the first month, but it's catching on now that I'm buying ads so it gets seen. And it seems that April and May were rough all around for indie books. June has definitely been a bonanza for me, though. ☺️

The Summer/Winter Solstice is also #ShowYourStripes day. It's grim business even in New Orleans. And we know what warming means for Gulf Coast cities. 🌀
At the moment, US atmospheric scientists face the threat of rampant job loss and the dismantling of our work by #Project2025. We need advocates.

Gah. Momentary panic when I saw what I thought was a major factual error in my paperback.
It's the text "a borderline hypercane could form with merely 35°C water and -70° upper atmosphere temperature."
That's true. I panicked and thought it wasn't because of this. Refs Emanuel et al. 1988 vs 1995.
