It's amazing that 4 congressional Dems voted to make it *illegal for married women to vote*, and the rest of the Dems didn't respond "ok yeah you are not allowed to call yourself a Democrat anymore, we're not going to help fundraise for you, just go fuck yourself"

Again: Britain (not just this government but all of the recent ones) has a problem with knowledge work. Fishing, steel are manly proper jobs with a Victorian sense of place and history. Creative industries & HE are treated as secondary; derided or ignored.

i keep thinking about this

The thing about receiving book royalties in USD is that I can watch them drop in value in real time every time the Fanta Man speaks

Check out this bundle to support Autistic authors during Autism Month!

Pharmacies have my medication in stock consistently challenge : impossible

rewatching raimi's spider-man 2 and what's killing me about these movies is just how laser-focused they are on class dynamics. 14 minutes in aunt may starts crying because she gave peter 20 bucks for his birthday and he tried to turn it away and she's ashamed she can't afford to do better by him

Bring back proper games journalism.

I find myself going back and forth on whether I should have been more explicit on Ryoma being on the spectrum in Synth Sea

It only took me 10 months but I'm finally painting the bathroom ceiling

Moonstruck is so good. I like any movie that makes profound points about the nature of romantic desire while depicting Italians with the subtlety and nuance of Super Mario.

My boys! One trans, one fuzzy πŸ˜†

I'm chronically very low energy and I have a lot of work hours for training atm because I got a new position, so I don't have enough brain to do anything else. So... have a low effort promo: I have a book coming out April 22nd! Please preorder! There's a punk, some wings, and some problems.

How the ambassadors on Babylon 5 would react to you coming out as trans based on the 18 episodes I've seen: Sinclair: "Well you're a member of this team and I'm proud to work alongside you. I'll transmit the paperwork to Earth and that will be that."

From April 10-20 there will be an co-op bundle on itch.io autistic indie authors. 10 books for $10 supporting and celebrating autistics during Autism Month! itch.io/b/2953/indie...

The discourse around tariffs has been β€œthings will get more expensive” but I am here to tell you that I am knee deep in reporting on this subject and I strongly suspect that if super high tariffs endure, it will shift to *certain items cease to be available at any price*

The problem with picking a themed wedding is I now have to hunt around for cowboy hats in charity shops. No small undertaking in rural-ish England
