Rereading Feed by Mira Grant (pen name of @seananmcguire.bsky.social), and this line towards the beginning stuck out, given the political climate: "There was a war on, and the ones whose responsibility it was to inform us wouldn't even admit that we were fighting it."

The First Occupant's lies, fawning o/Putin, & blackmailing Ukraine for minerals are "a repudiation of a nearly eight-decade core belief that the United States was safer in a world where it stood against aggression and authoritarianism and for freedom" www.nytimes.com/2025/02/22/o... #SlawaUkraini

Please please PLEASE request books from your local libraries! Those are some of our most important sales as authors!

I've seen an old misunderstanding going around; that libraries don't benefit authors. But they do! A lot! Here's how:

I miss working with Marvel so much that last night I dreamt I ran into my GHOST-SPIDER editor at a hotel and he took me to meet the new editorial pool. Having a weird addiction to writing comics is hard sometimes.

Reposting this again bc like — I want to be able to respond in some productive way to every awful thing I see, but we are literally not built for that. So I picked an org in my lane and I’m offering up my skills. Spent an hour today working through the first piece of a new plan. And it felt good.

I wondered what Donald would do to wreck his own quality of life this time around. Unless there’s another pandemic for him to mishandle, this will be it. And it’s not like he doesn’t know it’s coming. His father died of Alzheimer’s after years of decline and degradation. He might well have it now.

I know that cases like this are hugely discovery dependent and therefore a hard lift to ask for someone to take on pro bono, but if any lawyer out there feels the burning need to fuck up a company that's being blasé as fuck about killing multiple cats, Kiki has loads of provable monetary damages.

For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 1%, it can collect $13. For every $1 the IRS spends auditing the top 0.1%, it can collect $26. Laying off 7,000 IRS employees (during tax season) isn't about efficiency. It's about making it easier for the rich to evade taxes.

Elon Musk recently posted on his site that another lawyer and I are “undermining civilization.” He goes on to ask if we suffered childhood trauma and concludes by suggesting we are suffering from “generational trauma.” This is my response. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

Gang, at this point I’m too disillusioned to expect all of you to mask always (even though you should), but for the love of GOD, please at least mask at airports and on planes when you travel to events!!!

Bebop is doing okay this night! They are going to try and wean her off oxygen. I'm hoping she continues to improve and is able to wean off. I think our fast acting saved her from developing worse complications. #cats

People fuck up, but Wild Coast Raw is literally killing cats and declining to take ANY responsibility for it. My COMPLETELY INDOOR cats ate batch 22660. They are still acting like the bird flu results were fake. My stud who does not eat raw was negative. This WILL kill cats. This is evil.

Wild Coast Raw, the company responsible for the tainted food which is causing indoor-only cats to die of bird flu, is deleting comments on their Instagram about the topic. So they're killing pets and trying to cover it up. Cool.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.
