When asked if he was going to visit the crash site he said, ‘what site? The water? You want me to go swimming?’ This is one of the last pics of the young skaters who died. He’s a sociopath. Anyone who voted for this monster should be ashamed at best.

Whenever I see generalized advice a la “don’t query a (genre) novel over (reasonable word count)” I want to scream.

The problem with this article is that the media hasn't been very empathetic here. This isn't a case of "white man kills family" and the photo is him jet skiing. The media has actually been trying pretty hard to shame everyone who is being empathetic to him.

I have an article in The Guardian today about motherhood, mental illness and ambivalence

My mother has schizophrenia and there’s a chance I could too. Am I right to want biological children?
I’m not ambivalent about having kids because I’m afraid for their mental health. It’s because I’m afraid for my own

Every time you go on Amazon or Goodreads to leave a review for Ta-Nehisi Coates, Ibram X. Kendi, or Alexander Chee, leave one for a first-time Black woman author, too. We need support so much more than well-established millionaire male authors.

You have to read this book by my inimitable friend Sarah LaBrie. I got to read an early version and just read the published book and was blown away anew. Such a strong voice, and a dry, dark sense of humor. Extra credit for the length: 224 brisk pages.
