I KEEP TELLING PEOPLE (Sorry, I will keep the yelling to a minimum. It's just, the asshats running my province keep looking at the most terrible things being enacted in the States and murmuring "Hmmm, how can WE do that next?")

For all the DOJ employees being fired: once you're no longer a federal employee, you can write about your experiences, go on TV. Trump is trying to erase the record of the cases against him, erase "corporate" memory. Someone should organize a way to get their stories out in the public.

Elon Musk has now set his sights on the U.S. gold reserves at Fort Knox, insisting on personally ensuring the gold remains intact. The vault was last opened to journalists and a congressional delegation in 1974.

Don't do this administration's work for them by coming up with justifying and rationalizing arguments for institutions and organizations to cooperate. This includes the justifications for why the Democratic party has to "find common ground." If you even start to think this, slap yourself.

To all the #horror writers, let me say: “you’ve wormed your way into my brain Valentine!” 📸 pic includes that quote and an old fashioned Valentine illustration of a rosy cheeked child with a worm coming out of her forehead. This piece of brilliance is from the Rollins School of Public Health.

You ever see a movie and feel like the writers don’t trust you enough to let the visuals tell the story? Like they could have done it with maybe one or two pieces of dialogue?

Q1 - hello #HorrorWritersChat I’m Kimberly, I write eerie horror that’s like “waiting to be pushed off a cliff.” Best part of writing is meeting readers, and that books don’t expire - I was a playwright for many years and plays only truly exist when people are watching them.

Developing a new script entirely for my own entertainment. Also working on a children’s song to explain all this. Should be a delight. Gather round children, for the tale of the rotten orange… 😐 this is the exact point that I switch between humor and horror.

I think an American flag created entirely by black men at the Superbowl is one of the best pieces of art I've seen in my lifetime. I hope it actually killed some folks. And I hope it finally closes the fucking book on the argument that we shouldn't use the flag to fight the God damned fascists.

Here are some books by Black authors that I love and think everyone should read. They are listed in the comments and on my bookshop page, where you can order any of them from me. Have you read any of these?

Just in case you thought that removing DEI criteria would mean that everyone is competing equally: NIH is removing grad students from underrepresented backgrounds from the applicant pool altogether. Their applications will not be considered. Other students, not from these backgrounds, will be.
