Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

When screaming into the void, remember to breathe from your diaphragm. Not only does it protect your voice, but it improves your projection. The Endless Horrors™️ will not fear you if they cannot hear you.

Really thankful to all of the scientists who made themselves available to talk to me about the unprecedented situation at NIH. I've never had so many people reach out to me for a story like this. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Julie Gray, wife of Holocaust survivor Gidon Lev, who joined Musk in his visit to Auschwitz speaks out. She says that Musk felt nothing during the tour & only "cared about how he looked." She shared this with me privately shortly after the tour, and I'm grateful she made her thoughts public.

“Man comes to the door, asks if the King’s inside. Tell me. What’s he really asking?” “He’s asking, ‘May I kill your guest?’…He’s asking, ‘Will you hand over to me one more victim to add to the long slow massacre that is becoming our history.’ To which an honest man answers - “ “No.”

Shockingly few people are talking about the toxic air and water in LA. It’s eerily reminiscent of early days of the pandemic when we were assured we didn’t have to mask Listen to air quality experts. The same folk educating about IAQ & COVID are providing life saving info now. And wear a mask.

My fiction podcast, The Godfrey Audio Guide, came to a close at the end of December. First, I didn’t post about it because it was the holidays and also I was sick with a nasty cold. Then I didn’t post about it or our upcoming Q&A episode because Los Angeles was on fire.

It’s been a hard few days, and I’m not even directly impacted by the fires. (Not so far, anyway.) LA is my adopted home, and it’s overwhelming to watch so much of it vanish in an instant. #LosAngelesFires #LAFires

Just made a creative to-do list for 2025 - a mix of writing new projects and editing existing ones. Though I think of it as less a to-do list and more a way to focus my energy. Because history has proven time and again that I simply will not be able to tackle everything. But hey, a girl can dream.

HR 9495 has passed the House this morning, and moving on to the Senate. I'm disappointed, but sustained pressure dropped the D yes votes from 50 down to 15, which is progress Now we set our sights on killing it in the Senate. We need all of you to keep fighting to protect nonprofit workers

Re-upping these two posts. It doesn’t take many of us disobeying to become ungovernable. But if A LOT of us disobey in many, small ways, constantly, we can guarantee that we’ll be ungovernable.

It’s been a week and I’m still thinking about #MeowWolf. None of these photos do the experience justice. It was strange and beautiful and wondrous in all the best ways. If you’re ever in Santa Fe, do yourself a favor and visit #TheHouseOfEternalReturn.
