Do not messe wyth writers. Thei are the kyndeste and meanest and weirdest folk on Earthe. Thei kan create a person yn a second, or make a partye be rememberid for two thousande years. Thei kan stitch and unstitch worldes. Thei give names to emociouns we do not yet understande. Odd people, mightye.
Today everyone — EVERYONE — should take a moment and read Ray Bradbury's four-page short story from 1950.
Today is the day the story There Will Come Soft Rain is set. An amazing and heartbreaking work of fiction for our modern age. Read it here:
Yf you spye a fadid signe at the syde of the roade that saith 'V short leagues to the Shack of Love'
The only advice that means anything, imho, is "Read lots, then write lots, trying to imitate what you like. Repeat endlessly. Sooner or later, your own unique style will come out."
Just got another frog ready to send off on adventures 🐸
Getting ready to put these frogs up in the shop!
Earlier today I was complaining (with reason!) about the 2yr wait between seasons of House of the Dragon. Now that I've watched most of the 3rd season, though, I'm fully invested and can't wait for the season finale. There's no making me happy with entertainment.
I’m much more afraid of people not from here walking around with guns than I am of any of my neighbors the delusion they want me living in is that my neighbors are to be feared
like I cannot emphasize enough how far away I am from federal buildings, the monuments, etc. one man’s delusions means this is what our residential neighborhoods look like
I'm very rarely proud of my home state, but I'm proud that we don't tolerate this crap.
There is just literally no way that a Democrat in South Carolina would even be able to stay in their race if they campaigned with an open antisemite who said America deserved 9/11. I really don't understand why this is tolerated by Democrats where some of y'all live. It's shameful.
ALSO I'll be sending an original print by my mum to EVERY new subscriber who takes out an annual subscription to my site at the Villager or Help The Witch level today. The offer is, again, open worldwide. I have several hares, like the one above, but differently coloured, plus many other designs...

Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.
CARTOON OF THE DAY (if you know who made this let us know)
MST3K would come on the Syfy channel at like 5 AM Sunday and that’s just when your ass had to watch it and I can’t explain it but it made it funnier
It’s hard to explain but tv was better when you couldn’t watch the show you wanted whenever you wanted to watch it and most of the shows were worse and the TVs were worse and the entire experience was worse, that’s when it was better
never thought short form video would be able to capture a type of humor i can only describe as “the far side-esque” but this comes close.
If you’re a comics fan, what’s the earliest comic book you can remember reading? And what kind of impression did it make on you?
It is the least goddamn controversial thing anyone on this fucking planet has said since the 2000 election.
Kamala Harris: I know this is going to be controversial coming from me in particular, we need to revisit the electoral college. We need to revisit the point of expanding the court. We need to revisit, if they so want, statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C.
