It's taking a little longer than I expected, but I'm working on the next chapter of #badideafic

Ben and Rey are finally talking.... well, sort of. They're at least touching each other and that has to count for something, right? #reyloww

I had a big push on this one hoping to get it done by Adam's birthday. It is nearly there, just a few small tweaks needed.

You ever hear a song and think “yeah, I like that” and throw it on a writing playlist only to have it shoulder aside all the other tracks and demand to become the theme song of the story?

I was so happy to get the chance to see Frankenstein a bit early in theaters, it was such a beautiful film and I have been meaning to do some fan art of it.

one thing i want to emphasize is these "illiberal" and "postliberal" authoritarians are just thieves and crooks! trump is thief. orban is a thief. putin is the biggest thief of them all.

I am well versed in American racism and I can tell you that Greene, Mace, and Boebert have neither tired of white supremacy nor the patriarchy and are simply bitter that they are no longer young enough, white enough, attractive enough or useful enough to reap the rewards of Bondi, Noem, and Kirk.
I'd be really curious if someone better versed in feminist theory wrote about what's happening on the right. Because between Greene, Mace, and Bobert, we've got this bloc forming of women who seem tired of serving a patriarchy of sex criminals. And their rhetoric is starting to lean that direction.
Marjorie Taylor Greene: "I was called a traitor by a man that I fought for 6 years for. I gave him my loyalty for free. I've never owed him anything. Let me tell you what a traitor is -- a traitor is an American that serves foreign countries."

I'm gonna be super blunt, here - I don't care about redeeming bigots. I care about keeping them out of power

"How do we change Marjorie Taylor Greene?" I don't give a Cinnamon Toast Fuck. Get a House majority big enough that she can't do damage or flip her seat

Her soul is her own affair
You may be right, but if you leave no room, no possibility for people to change, how do you expect people to change?

Sure, monks loved their eels. But so did the nuns!

In 1235 Henry III granted a charter to the nuns of Godstow Abbey that included the rights to local eel-rents.

Or, rather, some rights. Turns out, the nuns couldn't get eels all year round...just in the autumn. 1/2
