I think I've hit bot critical mass. New followers every day, but the follower count remains pretty much the same (fluctuates between 3,976 and 3,981). At least, i hope it's bots...

Honestly, do these scams even work on people? Just had an email from a guy claiming to make me a success in 2024. No that is not a typo... They aren't even trying anymore.

Started @grumpysensei.bsky.social's The Trouble With Prophecies. I'm only a few chapters in, but im having a lot of fun It's got Pratchett vibes. A decent sense of humour whilst leaning on familiar fantasy beats - wizards, hulking female warriors, immortal monarchs, and 'chosen one' prophecies
