Healthcare for seniors is not waste, fraud, or abuse. Food for hungry kids is not waste, fraud, or abuse. A $45 military parade for a draft dodging felon is waste, fraud, and abuse. Paying the National Guard to attack US citizens is waste, fraud, and abuse.

Living in the Midwest means the perpetual risk of being 20 minutes late to work because some corn farmer decides to take his equipment onto a one-lane road at 5mph during rush hour.

I've met people who think telling fellow authors you're a fan is weird or cringe or fanboy-ish or whatever. I give zero fucks. I love books. I'm a fan of great writers. I've reached out to half a dozen just this week to say I loved something they wrote.

Robert “Ed” Smylie, the NASA official who saved the Apollo 13 crew in 1970, has died at 95. He cobbled together an apparatus made of cardboard, plastic bags and duct tape after an explosion crippled the spacecraft as it sped toward the moon. nyti.ms/3Sbusb3

Lean over the cardioid microphone and speak clearly into it rather than keeping your mouth nine inches away and mumbling "Uh uh...can everyone hear me, no, no uh..." and then messing with the mic on its little stand challenge 2025 level impossible.

I'm at the point where I'm convinced Mike Flanagan fans have either never seen an actual good movie or haven't read the books he shamelessly steals from.

People are seriously losing their minds on here right now because Stephen King finally pointed out to them that being a movie critic isn't an art and is even less of a talent lol

I am autistic. I pay taxes. I've been working since I was 18. I played baseball for five years. I'm a published writer. I've been on many lovely dates. I took a nice shit today and wiped my own ass - and it somehow stunk less than anything that's ever fallen out of this dullard's mouth. #FuckRFKjr

There are people who need to live with constant drama and conflict because peace and quiet would leave them alone with the person they hate the most... themselves.

@cryptozooloren.bsky.social Hi Loren! Do you know where I can find any historical information on the Mothman sightings that occurred in Ashland KY and Elizabethtown KY in 1938 and 1939? I've seen them briefly referenced in books but I cannot find any newspaper coverage online.

I meant to post this on the anniversary of Kevin Conroy's passing, but I guess I missed it. I don't think it does any good sitting in my folder. This series and Conroy's voice still fire up my imagination.

The Defense Secretary and several others need to resign and face charges. Every member of Congress should demand it. Nothing less is acceptable. Also, all federal employees, to include FBI special agents, need to remember their oath is to the Constitution, not the president or a cabinet secretary.

The only thing more lame than Law & Order doing a Luigi episode this week is the fact that the writers were too chickenshit to show the verdict and decided to rip off the Sopranos finale instead.
