I had a rough time with my trilogy: I debuted at the peak of the pandemic. A steep drop in sales for Book 2. Had a bone removed from my hand weeks before Wolfskin was published. But word of mouth is critical for authors. So if you're a fan of space opera like Mass Effect, please give it a chance.

My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.

Bessent: "We've seen President Trump last week threaten what would have been the largest military campaign since World War 2 against the Iranians, and now because of that we are in talks with the Iranians. I think there's a chance we may have a deal today or tomorrow to open the strait."

‘Vote Trump and Shit Yourself to Death’ - should be a bumper sticker.

Two dead from the US cyclospora outbreak, just in case you had any doubt how dangerous it is. There are now 18,000 confirmed or suspected cases across 45 states. By any standard this would be a scandal but it’s just another metaphor for life under Trump - killer food contaminated with human waste.

You misspelled "wine box".

Some time ago I entered a portfolio of images of mist-filled woodlands to the 'Photographing the British Isles' comp. I made it to the final 3 but didn't win. Here are the images anyway, as they represent one of things I like doing most - picking out fleeting moments amongst the trees. #PhotoRippin

I am further drawing attention to this very important public announcement
