We keep hearing that Covid "became politicized" without any indication of WHO FUCKING POLITICIZED IT. It's no wonder people keep voting for these freaks.

This technology will arrive on our doorsteps at some point. It will happen. We should make sure and get universal basic income implemented before it happens, to guarantee that no one's income falls to zero as a result of it, and that the wealth it generates is widely shared vs further concentrated.

Golly, it sure seems like the predatory publishers and distribution platforms are well served by authors yelling at each other about decisions made to survive under current conditions, instead of turning their collective ire on the greedy exploiters. Funny, isn’t it.

63% of American adults had unfavorable views of Martin Luther King Jr in August 1966, per Gallup surveys 46% of Mississippi GOP voters said interracial marriage should be illegal in a 2011 PPP poll to push w/e is popular instead of trying to popularize justice is to admit you lack moral leadership

Yes! When I went through this with dreamspinner they fought really hard to both not pay us and also string us along enough that we would not sue. I firmly believe they were embezzling the money and probably still are from authors who don't know better. We should have sued.

Mr. Rogers would 100% have a drag queen come read a book and then turn it into the most heart warming message of inclusivity you’ve seen in decades while washing a trans man’s feet and half this country is just living their lives like Fred Rogers ain’t disappointed in them fucking daily.

I was working for a queer magazine in Orlando with news of Michael Shepherd's murder came over the wires. We all sat in that small office and cried together for a boy none of us would ever get to know. Thinking of the distance between then and now, and Jonathan Joss's horrific murder.

I really hope the creators of King of The Hill as well as Amy Poehler, Adam Scott, and other names from Parks & Rec use their voices to honor Jonathan Joss and use their power to bring to light the horrendous hate crime that happened to him during Pride. So often, Natives are forgotten.

Jonathan Joss (Comanche, White Mountain Apache) did not simply die from a gunshot. He was murdered in a homophobic, racist hate crime by his former neighbors. He died saving his partners life. Honor his legacy-- both queerness and Indigeneity are inextricable to why he was targeted.

The COVID-19 vaccines are the closest humans have come to a scientific feat like blowing up an asteroid headed to Earth in real time and saving millions, if not tens of millions, of lives. And conservatives are like, "Witch!!"

Just on the train thinking about how in a year Golden Terrace will be in print again and until then we'll be getting to see the cover. And preorder. And new fans will find it. And there may be more fanart (and how happy it makes my heart that there is fanart) So. Yay! #danmei #GoldenTerrace #🦢💌🏹

Pro tip: ending every passionate speech you make with "I know everyone here hates me and no one listens to me, I know no one wants to hear me talk" is, actually, a form of manifestation in and of itself. 🙄

the major focus of the democratic party for most of my adult life has been "flipping republicans," whether it is voters or members of congress. it doesnt fucking work but they would rather do that than the shit most voters want.

Speaking as the former president of a writers' organization that had to more than once extract payment for writers from failing publishers: yuuuuup. Also, the comment elsewhere that corporations are inherently sociopaths and never your friends? Yuuuuup.
