The biggest issue has always been people content to do nothing because they think, "it can't happen here," or, "Someone will fix this." Waiting for someone to fix things only helps the people who hate you It can always happen here if people don't act, and *you* are 'someone,' so get off your arse!

Reposting this. Just 'cos. #mood

My Dad just bought CLUB CONTANGO at Kinokuniya, because he wanted to register one more retail sale. We've come a long way from not being allowed to study anything non-Econ/Business for undergrad, to rage-quitting a "good job" to go to grad school, to keeping my 1st book secret for months, to this 😭

The energy I bring to Bluesky.

Next time you hear someone ask how will the govt pay for <insert new spending on services> just remember right now the richest 10% get $27.5bn in tax breaks on just super, and negative gearing and the capital gains discount on housing www.theguardian.com/business/gro...

There’s no way RTD didn’t see that poster

Goodnight

This is genius.

I'm not crying, you're crying. Amazing comic about Oscar Wilde, memory and legacy, by N. D. Stevenson (who tragically doesn't seem to be on Bluesky).

😓

Disney to re-release Song of the South in theatres because, "Trump says it's got happy singing black people in it, so it can't be racist!"

I should probably start thinking up designs for the next book

I have just learned of the existence of Zarbee's cough syrup, with its emblem of a happy cartoon Menoptra. (This is not an endorsement or recommendation: I know nothing of appropriate medicines for children or for Outer Space Insect People.)

Bought some wonderful tops from lonelykidsclub.com which arrived today. Ordered a second batch two days later, which hasn't yet shipped because clearly lots of people have ordered stuff from them after Grace Tame was fucking awesome. I am beyond ecstatic that they are overwhelmed with orders.

Well I for one am shocked and appalled that nearly half of young people won't pick up guns to defend a country that has displayed nothing but contempt for them, their lives, freedoms, dreams of the future, social spaces, and loves for years and keep getting more overt making that clear.

Why would you leave just one? … WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE JUST ONE?!?

When I was a child, the set of encyclopedias in our house and books from the local library were our main source of information. We're going to regret outsourcing human knowledge to Silicon Valley technofascists. They can destroy modern recorded history with a few keystrokes. Join your library.

it has been said before but one problem is that when some people say 'the economy' they're talking about poor people affording food and housing, & when some other people say 'the economy' they're referring to a chart of how happy rich people are

I saw an ad for an AI assistant where a woman tells it to reschedule an appointment, but we don't actually see the appointment being successfully rescheduled because that would probably be false advertising.

ICYMI.

This bit of dialogue from Star Trek: The Next Generation ‘Skin of Evil’ (1988) reminded me of something 🤔

It’s like getting a hug from your best friend, your most-loved family member and your favorite teacher all at the same time, and she says, as she holds you gently, “I am proud of you.”

Me: “if you were to eat a mermaid, at what point does it stop becoming seafood and start becoming cannibalism?” Daughter: “Why can’t you be a normal parent?”

Clips so rare even I hadn't seen all of them!

We’ve been sharing more ReBoot goodies on YouTube, but I’ve forgotten to post them here. Here’s The Trias Effect: youtu.be/yHA9jkaQenA?...

RECALL is out on the 25th of this month. If you're keen to grab it and still using Goodreads, add it to your shelves maybe? All visibility helps! Thank you. www.goodreads.com/book/show/22...

Flashback to this absolute banger.

It's humid this morning, so Max looks like he's been at the salon all night getting a perm. Also, this dog bites fascists.

Modern book burning.

“Honey, do ya wanna watch Seven Year Itch tonight?” “What made you think of that?” “No reason.”

I bought something off eBay purposely to avoid Amz, only for it to arrive in one of their boxes and find out they'd ordered it off Amz. Twice before I've bought directly from a manufacturer to avoid Amz to then learn they distribute FROM Amz warehouses. The stranglehold is unreal.
