@maxgladstone.bsky.social Really hyped you're coming for the PSFS event! If you do hang out beforehand somewhere I'd love to buy you a coffee or beer for giving me the gift of the Craft universe. :D

Bandcamp lets us keep 85% of revenue. That is the best rate of anybody out there. Over a period of about 15 years, I have taken home ~$3000. Every album is "pay what you want", so you all rock.

If you bought an album for $5 then you gave me more than streaming the whole album ~300 times.

KBC can call it "depressive" all he wants but it's among my favorite introspective, self-reflective, slow-melody-loving albums not just in drone but in the whole catalog of music I go back to regularly.

I wouldn't get even 1/3 of my reading done if it wasn't for audiobooks.

FINALLY finished up @maxgladstone.bsky.social 's Wicked Problems yesterday (among my favorite he's written, the long read time was all my doing). Must move on to my next horror book club pick, although the new Nghi Vo book is just sitting on my bedside table side-eyeing my choices...

"If I had a nickel for every time it was Frank Lloyd Wright's fault, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice..."
Goddamit it was Frank Lloyd Wright

Lots of fun stuff being made lately using the Jetstream, the firehose of all Bluesky posts. Here’s a growing thread of my favorites. (Send me more!)
See the colors of BlueSky, live!

I feel like I'm just in a continuous chain of years that, as I approach the end of each one, I think, "well I'll be glad to see the end of *that* fucker." And the one that follows is just sitting there waiting, gleefully-rubbing-hands-meme.jpg.

Trans rights are human rights
chat what do you think the odds are we can get a senator on bluesky to say trans rights
Hello (again) Bluesky! I’m going to start posting here again, because that other app has become a disaster.

But first, I want to introduce myself. My name is Tina Smith, and I’m a proud United States Senator for Minnesota… ⬇️
