I drew a little something in Procreate to capture how I’m feeling. Obviously needs like three more waves but this captures the gist…

Ran into a troll in Issaquah.
It’s right behind me, isn’t it …
A shame these trolls didn’t exist when I was writing Finn Fancy Necromancy. Maybe I can work them into a future novel.

Had a blast going with friends to WET LEG last night (with awesome opening act Mary in the Junkyard). Pre-show hangout at the Pine Box, a former mortuary turned bar/ pizza restaurant. #wetleg

Saw Chuck Tingle on Wednesday. Fun, funny, and full of love and positivity as always.
His are the only horror novel readings I’ve been to, but I assume all horror novel readings are full of sparkle and energy and laughter and love, right? ;p

FIRST: I love that Washington's Secretary of State Steve Hobbs is a D&D player/GM who goes by "Happy Tracker Meow Meow."
SECOND: I love that he and UW professor Jin Ha Lee are advocating ways games can be used to train folks to battle misinformation.

Pop Culture: Can games like Dungeons and Dragons combat disinformation?
Find out how Dungeon and Dragons could save the nation. With lies on social media traveling faster than reason, could this nerdy role playing game be the answer to combating disinformation?

Selena Gomez flavored Oreos?!
I know there was that whole Gweneth Paltrow’s V-scented candle.
And I realize people love Yellowjackets and Hannibal and I-Zombie and all.
But this just seems a bad idea to me. I mean, what if they get “the hunger”?!

I love that people are reportedly glitter bombing a certain group of masked kidnappers so that they are identifiable without their masks. Can’t get rid of glitter! The power of sparkle!

I don't write with AI, but I DO use 527,362 em-dashes per novel. They come direct from my soul, they FEEL right -- something AI could never understand.

DoorDash is part preview of a world with replicators. Order whatever meal you want at home and zap it’s there, ready. How does anyone in Star Trek fit in their uniforms? Also computer, stop suggesting I add Dairy Queen. I said Earl Grey, hot, and I meant i… oh, fine, and one Peanut Buster Parfait.

I’m sure Trump and his friends didn’t bet against the market and plan to buy up all the foreclosed real estate (or whatever finance bros do to profit on the suffering of others) before he put his plan in motion.
Blue Horseshoe likes all those stocks Tariffs are tanking.

I love what Cory Booker did. I just wish I hadn’t woken up to multiple fundraising emails with the same copy/paste statement from him. It feels like it cheapened it.
How cool would it have been to get emails from him saying “Here’s ten ways you can join the fight” that weren’t about donations?

Operation Bomb Atlantis is a go for 16:30. POTUS says he saw on TV that they plan to destroy the surface world. Also, he doesn’t like anything named the Atlantic right now. So just … drop some big bombs in the sea and film the explosions.
