HGTV pulled Married to Real Estate. I need the powers that be to understand that if I do not have my preferred distraction content it leaves me with more free time than they want me to have.

I will not make it to Socialism 2025 next weekend on account of my needing to sit the hell down for like two seconds but I made a donation to organizer @haymarketbooks.org which is almost as good. socialismconference.org

Realizing how much of the project's history was on Twitter before The Troubles started, today on the blog, I offer a brief history of the Ignyte Awards, winner of the 2025 Locus Special Award. www.ldlewiswrites.com/news-updates/blr1cll6k240urnbkg9dmjrmg8iyqq

I become SO angry every time I get another email about Gemini AI bullshit being forced into something I'm using. A pox on everyone responsible, truly.

Something the Mamdani win demonstrates is the extent to which the reigning cadre of ancient, establishment, centrist Dems think it’s more important to be on good terms with their GOP colleagues than it is to represent their own voters, and how thoroughly sick of this literally everyone is.

Cuomo, his predator squad, the centrists, and every racist you know are so mad tonight and I am living

look how much money Cuomo got from the billionaire class compared to how little Zohran Mamdani raised from the people. 36 million to 9 million and Cuomo still lost.

“DRACULA” can stand for “Don’t Rank Andrew Cuomo’s Useless Lazy Ass” or “Don’t Rank Andrew Cuomo’s Useless Lecherous Ass” because this is a big-tent movement where we believe in ideological diversity

The response to Zohran Mamdani's campaign reminds me of the stories I've heard from ambitious, optimistic Millennials (esp. BIPOC) whose ideas are repeatedly shot down by managers, are told they don't have enough experience to be leaders, and are constantly subjected to microaggressions and racism.

Wrapping up my line edits today and I want to assure you that every last em dash is intentional and implemented entirely by myself or my editor and we are both real living human beings as far as I am aware.
