In case you’re having a bad day, new polling shows Assistant President Poopy Pant’s approval rating and personal popularity are going down faster than Lauren Boebert’s hand at a kid’s musical. Happy #PresidentsDay indeed.

It's always been the case that "buying" an ebook from amazon was only actually a loan they could rescind at any point, but lately Amazon have gone harder on this, and it is 100% so that they can wipe banned books from your libraries without your consent. Buy direct from authors. Get your files.

You know what’s frustrating? No one is asking the Trump administration at all what the positive impact of their choices are. They’re making a lot of choices, how come nothing has improved? If the problem was simply funding when can citizens expect their money back?

a good part of me thinks that in addition to everything else, the reason they are scrubbing these stories is they do not want disadvantaged kids to believe they can aspire to anything other than their designated “black” or “hispanic” or “woman” job

Write every day for 1 hour. If you miss a writing day add 1 hour to the next. It’s incredible! Tomorrow I’m writing for 7 years.

The NIH announced it will slash billions of dollars of support to universities and research centers. This is one of the biggest attacks on science we have ever seen. It could dismantle the biomedical research system, shut down clinical trials, and halt development of treatments.

A fake billionaire is letting a fake genius destroy America because a bunch of fake patriots are too stupid, too entitled and too hateful to understand the difference between what is fake news and what is fact.

Writing is very hopeful because you'll be like: I don't know if people will like this book. I don't know if the industry will exist in 2 years. I'm not sure North America will be functional in 6 months And still finishing writing the book to go on sub anyway. Hope springs eternal! 🖤

Attorney General Pam Bondi Directives as soon as she is sworn in. Just doing everything we knew they would do. You may want a stiff drink while you read it. So many people’s lives are about to be a living hell just for doing their jobs. All because America refused to jail a dangerous traitor.

Hey #Booksky if you’re in the US and looking to step away from the zon for physical books can I highly recommend Thrift Books? They donate and partner with non-profits to support school libraries in underserved areas, and prison libraries. Plus, the book prices are very good www.thriftbooks.com
