I just grabbed a copy from this fabulous writer. You should too!!!
If you don't already own a copy of THE BIG REWIND or NEGATIVE GIRL (or haven't left a glowing review!) now would be a really, really good time to do so.

I could use the boost, financially and mentally.
Lost my job today. "Downsizing," as they used to call it. So if you need a writing teacher, editor or copywriter, I'm your girl!

Delighted to share Cara Wood's interview with Jason Powel about his debut novel, No Man’s Ghost, that burns from the inside out. It’s full of the drama and pressure of a high stakes job with a refreshingly tender emotional story at its heart.

Jasmine Crockett went on TV to call out Trump’s West Point tirade. She said it should lead Republicans to “question his mental acuity & whether he's equipped to serve mentally. We know he's not qualified, but this is just deplorable.”
Why are media & GOP afraid of him?

The entire nation should protesting this utterly unwarranted, unprecedented, & probably illegal on-going attack on a university. It's right out of the authoritarian playbook. It's an assault on possibility free speech, free thought, & dissent.
Fascism is coming small step by small step, not at once.

Someone working at Home Depot just approached me, a total stranger, to tell me how much he regretted his vote for Trump. 401k down, worried about his job, no raise, can’t retire. And it’s just beginning.

Bankrupt running a casino. Pause in awe for a minute and absorb the enormity of that then marvel at the speed and efficiency with which the wealthiest and most influential country on earth has been dismantled to be sold for parts. #OrangeMonday
Excellent idea putting the global economy into the hands of a convicted felon who went bankrupt running a casino.

You're welcome, world!

Don't be afraid to call things by what they are. MAGA is a terrorist organization, ICE is a secret police force conducting Ethnic Cleansing, Elon Musk is an oligarch, and Trump is a foreign backed coup d'état figurehead. This is not an administration, this is a regime, and your country is occupied.

“The Texas Chainsaw Massacre” is right there
This is in fact a real picture and it will work nicely in the ads next year about the military families devastated by Elon's illegal firings.

Watching Severance I think its making the point that we live in a society in which to succeed and survive you must embrace corporate life but if you embrace it you are no longer truly living, at least not on your own terms. That’s the conundrum of the world we’re in. @severence2.bsky.social

David Lynch: "Most films reflect the world, and the world is violent and in a lot of trouble. It’s not the other way around. The films don’t make a peaceful world violent—the violent world made the films."
