New journal! I’ll be selling these at Dark Reads in Providence, RI on Saturday. They’ll also be available at AuthorCon in Williamsburg, VA. If you join my Patreon at the Patron Wannabe level, you’ll get free swag like this whenever I make it, and I am always finding ways to make things.

I’m all for the #buynothing boycot, but I think it would all work a lot better if we did it for a month or two if you could manage it. One day isn’t going to dent their overall bottom line. One month would hurt.

Stay healthy out there!

This morning at Dept of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) HQ in DC as mandatory return to office began, this video played on loop for ~5 mins on screens throughout the building, per agency source. Building staff couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so sent people to every floor to unplug TVs.

Watched Capt America: BNW on Sat. It was great! If you felt attacked, perhaps you should think about why rather than lash out. As a cis-white m, I didn’t feel attacked. I felt sad for everything our society does to hurt others in our “modern” world. #Resist #Reflect #Marvel #WeCanBeBetter

The Witcher: Little Mermaid. I mean Sirens of the Deep.

New piece up for Reader and Patron Members. Come join my Patreon! #opinion #art #Patreon #indieauthor #amwriting

Attention resistance: time to crash Google reports.

So Google has not only changed the Gulf of Mexico on its maps, but it is removing several holidays from its calendar. They are becoming a modern Ministry of Truth and it needs to stop. I suggest everyone call, write, and just become a nuisance. about.google/contact-goog... #Resist #Trump #Musk

Can someone still with a Twitter handle go ask #Trump when he’s going to hand over the POTUS account to Elon? It’s not like we don’t know who’s calling the shots at this point.

Miss the relentless death of Game of Thrones? Go watch Sweet Home on @netflix.com. Holy Hell.

New Update Post

If you’re a Visa cardholder you can let them know you won’t be any longer if they do business with fElon. I called and they said they’re taking comments at [email protected]. Maybe if enough of us complain they’ll pull the deal.

So, I’ve decided to add an additional exclusive to my #Patreon. I’ll be “pantsing” a mystery thriller novel, one chapter a month, for the Patron Wannabe Tier. #amwriting

Finished Season 2 of Hellbound. Ready for Season 3. I’ll be sitting here. Waiting. @netflix.com

Absurd.

The White House said Elon Musk will determine if there are conflicts of interest between his work reviewing federal spending and his overlapping empire of six companies

If you or someone you know works for or was put on leave at any of the agencies currently under attack, encourage them to #Strike. Surround the buildings, bar entry to anyone helping #Musk in his efforts to dismantle our government. #CivilDisobedience is a tool that works. Use it! #USAID #USTreasury

@aoc.bsky.social @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Why haven’t voices in leadership positions not asked government employees of agencies being ransacked to strike and surround the buildings to prevent this hostile takeover? Why haven’t you done this? This is a time for #civildisobedience. #RESIST

I’m running for office. My platform is, “I won’t burn it all down.” Write me in as an independent. #politics #build #election #News #resist
