Today I played nearly ten hours of Expedition 33 And I am. So impressed. It is SO GOOD!!! In many ways, the game I’ve been wanting for a long time. World building, character, aesthetic, gameplay… Ugh, DAMN !!!

At Augur we use trigger warnings as early as subs and pitch, and then have writers tweak them prior to publication. They are small font just under the title. If you don’t need them, you can skip them. If you do, they are there. This is an accommodation for entry, like a ramp. It is not optional.

Do we think Canadians demand more or less friends than Americans

As I get older, I am happier and happier that I didn’t publish earlier. I like the heart of my early work. But it’s not the history I want to be defined by. At twenty, I never could have imagined that.

I had a lovely time “talking genre” with @sillysyntax.bsky.social, Uzma Jalaluddin, and Ruby Barrett this evening at @thefoldcanada.bsky.social ! Plenty of wonderful festival programming to come this week, and looking forward to my trip to Brampton for the in person event this weekend! 💜✨

Thoughts I had when the liberals won: Maybe it’ll be safe to have a queer marriage. Maybe I can get top surgery. This will last until end of the presidential term. I can’t believe I had to slide right. Can the NDP please get their shit together. Freedom. Relief. But baseline—it comes at a cost.

With all sincerity, Elections Canada is a national treasure. - Voting typically takes less than 15 minutes - We make it easy for citizens to vote, without cumbersome registration hurdles - We have every reason to trust that ballots will be counted fairly, and results reported swiftly

All I want for spooky Christmas (read: election day) now is Poilievre to lose his seat. Give it to me. Gimme.

One word, Canada: V O T E & keep your immigrant, trans, BIPOC, and/or queer friends and family front of mind when you do.

Going to bed in Canada tonight feeling like tomorrow is spooky Christmas 🤞🤞

Canadians, many things are terrible and difficult right now, but Monday April 28 is election day and if you have not voted yet, I hope you will go out and vote tomorrow. All the info on how and where is at the official Elections Canada site: www.elections.ca/home.aspx

My first publishing role, interning in undergrad, was at ChiZine. When I entered spec fic community years later, they were everywhere. I was petrified—I knew no one in power would take me seriously. These are not easy conversations. But we must always be prepared to have them.

I see that Cemetery Dance is trending for being late with royalties and shitty to authors. I was around when Chizine went down in flames for similar reasons and let me remind authors that 1) a legit press does not do you a favor by publishing you 2) a press that is having severe money and systemic
