My takeaway from the 'two new holidays' to celebrate the ends of the world wars: November 11 is no longer a day off. Nor does it honor all veterans. If it's not a day off, how is it a national holiday?

I am making a list of people I will never vote for in a federal election. A few years from now, governors, senators and representatives who stand against my rights or are feeble in protecting my rights will try to rise to federal level. Leopards don't change their spots. Don't forget those names.

I decided to give Vlad Mar a Lago . I know he wanted Crimea but I think he will take the deal. I think I'm going to be pretty good at giving away territory that doesn't belong to me.

Assassin's Apprentice III#4 by @robinhobb.bsky.social, @jodyhouser.bsky.social, @ryankelly.bsky.social and Jordie Bellaire came out on Wednesday. So why did I only just read it now, on Monday morning? You know how you don't listen to your favorite album until you can sit down and really LISTEN?That.

Ok. We all know META AI stole our books and stories and articles. We all know it stole the work of our translators. How about our illustrators and cover art? Were those images used to train AI? Serious question.

META used - without permission or compensation - over 7.5 million copyrighted works to train their AI models. These thieves salivate at the day when creators won't be needed because AI will deliver all of society's entertainment needs. authorsguild.org/news/meta-li... 💙📚🎥📺✍️ #humancreators

Tomorrow, for the last time, I will battle traffic to sign book orders at University Book Store in Seattle. You still have time today to order an Autographed book. Visit their website to buy and then request an autograph. More info at my website at robinhobb.com

I am taking the stories of green card holders being deported very personally. My mom had a green card and a British passport until the day she died. Loved her England but married a Yank.I'm imagining her being denied entry after visiting my sister in New Zealand. What would have become of my family?
