My first house had no water shutoffs other than the one for the dishwasher, and the one for the whole entire house. Every time we had plumbing work done we'd say "also, can you install some water shutoffs for the toilet/shower/sink/whatever while you're in there?" and cursed the prior owners again.

One September as I was getting ready to go out the door to start my first day of teaching, my old dog jumped on the bed and then threw up and got off. My feelings at the moment were the same as when I see people deciding to add AI horrors to pre-existing images of the worst people in existence.

Hey, I'm going to say something general about publishing and bankruptcy. I'm not a bankruptcy expert; I'm just someone who has seen bankruptcy cases and knows how counterintuitive they can be. I do not know anything about UK bankruptcy law.

Deciding to be bi instead of pan because of the color palette is totally valid. Technically, I would be pan but I much prefer bi.

It’s weird for someone with a high follower count to copy your own words and quote-post them back to you, right? Making it look like it’s their reply?

Newsom loves embracing transphobes and stripping disabled people of their access to critical healthcare. He’s the incarnation of throw vulnerable people under the bus to cater to republicans who will never vote for him.

Honestly I'm Gen X and none of my childhood media aged well. I assume since POC are human beings that the racist shit was hurtful then, it's just that they're more able to speak up about it now.

Unbound/Boundless owes me $15k+ on a book that in its first royalty reporting cycle had sold around 3k copies of its 5k copy print run of which I have not seen a single penny. They also haven’t even reimbursed me for postage costs I incurred mailing out the arcs in the US at their request

Jordan pointed out to me that sometimes they might go to authors not just to publish but also for blurbs and other support, so please be wary here from all angles -- this publisher is not paying its authors, is abandoning its obligations, and must be held to pay what is owed.

He won me over with the lava and sharks. Oh, the people he's addressing won't care. But I was charmed by the lava and sharks metaphor. You don't see enough examples using them together. Thank you!

the big disconnect that happens here is between the correct message for D politicians (especially in red states), which is “you’re right, this isn’t who you are, you’re better than that, vote differently next time” and the actual truth, which is yes you did, fuck you

These people were following the law and went to check in with immigration like they are supposed to. This woman's immigration case was dismissed, which made her immediately undocumented. So ICE took her into custody. The air conditioning was off in the back of the truck. "I can't breathe."

This. This piece. Every day on the internet is Shut The Fuck Up Friday. If you’re going to crime for the greater good, you CANNOT talk about it & you CANNOT online-recruit others. It MUST be kept private. And that is harder in 2025 than it was in 1939. I leave why as an exercise for the student.

Can confirm. I had an ongoing turf war with some Info wars asshole who kept plastering shit around here. Everytime I saw one I'd take it down, they tried getting creative & putting it 9+ feet up but I'd find a way Thanks to a handy knife & some patience removed every single one. Give em no quarter

this is literally fraud. You did not sign authors with the promise to pay their due if you made a profit, you committed to pay them for their work that they delivered and has sold. At the very least this publisher needs to be blacklisted, but hope there are also legal consequences somehow

This Unbound/Boundless fiasco is heartbreaking. So many authors still owed royalties, now getting told they won't be paid their dues. Having supported publications with them & knowing that money never made it to the books writers also sucks. Claim back yer rights & remaining prints if possible!

Unbound needs to see consequences, not only is all this fraudulent, they are also so shitty they wait till the due date of promised payouts to renege, thereby screwing over every writer who has actually budgeted for it. Beyond disgraceful and shameful, industry boycott should be the starting point

Merciless Memories Nostalgia tells us that things were better in ye olden days. Rose-colored glasses washing out anything shadowed or ugly, fixating on comfort and familiarity when the clear-eyed truth is less pleasant. Merciless and necessary. #WritingCommunity #Poetry ko-fi.com/post/Mercile...
