Seen while walking the dogs. Someone had feelings about yesterday's events.

Happening now actually, because I said people who refused to wear masks to protect others should be socially barred from public spaces.
‪antarestrader.bsky.social‬ ‪@antarestrader.bsky.social‬ · 1h If Public Health officials had said "Please consider the health of others" instead of "Mask mandates!" there might have been lower initial compliance, but they probably could have kept it up longer and not allowed masking to become political statement. ‪JPL_Reader‬ ‪@jpl-reader.bsky.social‬ · 1h You are talking about a part of the population that has no trouble kidnapping brown kids, murdering LGBT+ people, and is delighted by concentration camps. Asking them nicely to consider others was never going to work. They should have been socially shamed and barred from public places. ‪antarestrader.bsky.social‬ ‪@antarestrader.bsky.social‬ · 58m Well, not with that attitude it won't. JPL_Reader ‪@jpl-reader.bsky.social‬ You clearly have a faith in humanity that the last two decades of their blatant inhumanity towards everyone who isn't like them has cured me of such notions. These people are literal sociopaths and should be treated as such. ‪antarestrader.bsky.social‬ ‪@antarestrader.bsky.social‬ · 35m And you clearly think that you should be able to impose any conditions you want on anyone who disagrees with you. When you become king of the world that will work, but we (for the moment at least) live in a country that theoretically believes in rule by the consent of governed. ‪JPL_Reader‬ ‪@jpl-reader.bsky.social‬ · 24m Any condition? No. But I should not have to risk my health and health of my mother with cancer to get milk and eggs because the same people who think I have no value beyond being an incubator think they should be exempt from basic decency? Absolutely not.

You get to spend $1,000 on books, but someone else has to choose them for you. Who would you trust with this mission?

Jump on facebook to wish the older relatives a Merry Christmas.

FB: Remember when your dog that just passed was a itty bitty puppy!
Tribble 5 weeks old (picked up on the side of the road) Black puppy with white chin and chest spot, eyes still blue-ish. Thought he was a pom puppy at this point. I was wrong. Tribble 15 years old. Black mix breed, very fluffy, graying muzzle, and uneven ears.

How WIP is this? The princes are named Heir, Spare, Lady (princess), Tray, and Alexander (MMC but not the final name, just cribbing from The Great). And they are in the kingdom of ThinkofaName (which I may keep with a bit of spelling change)
The Prince was to be married. Not the heir, or even the spare. In fact the heir already had an heir and spare of his own. And the spare had an heir. If you want to be technical, the Princess was also married and expecting. But the fourth royal child, a third Prince, of the Kingdom of ThinkofaName, was to be married, and many, many, many… so many eligible women and men, young and old, of noble and dubious noble decent were all vying for a his hand. “Is it too late for me to become a monk and take a vow of celibacy?” Tray asked. Alexander laughed. They stood on the balcony overlooking the seemingly endless line of carriages. “Never too late for that,” Heir said. “But you still have to get married first.” “Uugh,” Tray groaned. “Ahh the joys of being so far down the list I don’t matter,” Alexander said. Tray flipped him off. “Why yes, I am free as a bird. Glad I had to foresight to join the riders.”

I just got my first copyright strike, for ACOTAR, a review I did almost 4 years ago, by apparently some audio book company I have never heard of.

Guess I am real youtuber now?

I like to make my own subtitles, since YT's CC is a bit dodgy when it comes to fantasy names/places. But I always double check the voice to text for the same reason.

That word should be Cthulhu.

One of my favorite examples of why punctuation matters.
Sign by water reads Crocodiles Do NoT Swim Here. Could be a warning to people or an order for the crocodiles.

Putting the final touches on the next Lightlark video. #booksky
Screen cap. There is a moon in the background. On the left is an image of the cover for Lightlark by Alex Aster. In the right is a green dragon avatar with three red books looked exasperated. The words "this is my shocked face" over her head.

Reading The Radiant King by @ddalglish.com

Nice to have a new bit of wolf-based nightmare fuel. Also Calluna is a ray of sunshine blessing us all with her unsettling crazy.
