At what point in history did we stop storing so many things in chests, because honestly, that was pretty cool.
“You look like you had a fight with a Care Bear.” I WILL be looking for opportunities to say this to someone out loud in real life, thank you @malwindsor.bsky.social .
If you have to DNF for any reason, you do that. Some books may seem innocent at first and then trigger you, so if you gotta put it down, then drop it like it's hot. Me, personally, as an author applaud you for ever even picking it up and giving it a go.
Who told you that you have to finish every book you start?
Tomorrow I need to have a good reason why I am 1.5 days behind schedule on a work project. So far what I have is "Well see @malwindsor.bsky.social wrote a thing and @holdtheday.bsky.social said I should read it and I really couldn't figure out why I hadn't yet and *blink* it was Thursday night."

"Will never pay taxes" - oh, just like all those billionaires, then? 🙄🙄 This entire declaration is disgusting. My autistic son is amazing. He can write poems. He loves to play basketball. He wants to be an engineer. I guarantee he will be a more diligent & valuable citizen than RFK will EVER be.
Got a cool idea for a novel? That’s your concept. But unless you turn it into a premise, you might end up like Chuck Wendig’s old man lost at the mall—eating fries, forgetting your car. Let’s fix that. A thread 🧵🪓 #writingcommunity
Always a moving part of a con… Have faith, promises were made You just take care and behave You left, and now you are saved The path, it walks you away And meanwhile the house is empty The floors lay, naked and weary The walls, barely hanging on, carry on And SHE WAITS for you. #SPNBOS #SPNBoston
I love that point in outlining where the feeling of the project goes from, "Okay, these are things I could write, this could work as a story" to "Ooh, okay, now we're talking, let me at it!"
We're all united against asking ChatGPT everything, but lets not forget how weird Google results can be sometimes too.
Trying best not to be selfish and sad about my friends being at #SPNBOS without me because I had to sell my tix, and just be EXCITED for them! (Mostly succeeding, but ngl, it's a little hard 🙃)
Presidents are wasting time on shower heads, western NC is still on fire, and we're still paying to keep innocent US citizens in foreign jails. So anyway, here's a monster picture my kid drew. It's an Eye-scream Cone.
To the person who played sad trombone noises every time the MAGA preacher at UNC Chapel Hill tried to speak: you are my favorite Tar Heel. I'm proud.

Happy Confederate Surrender Day! Fun activitiy idea: put tiny buckle hats on piñatas and beat them until some freedom falls out. (And give any loser flags you see the Boston treatment, while you’re at it.) #ConfederateSurrenderDay
Fandom friends - help! During my unintentional hiatus, I had talked to a couple of lovely folks who won fics from me in auctions. I’ve been working on several but during the move over to 🦋, I no longer have note of names! If you or a friend is owed fic & hasn’t heard from me, PLEASE reach out! 💜

Happy #WIP Wednesday #AO3 goers! What have you been working on recently? What do you WANT to work on? What's been haunting your in-progress folders? 👻 Share as many as you'd like!
My photography skills are ass, but you know what ISN’T?? Anything from @squeevening.bsky.social ‘s Wayward Plaids 😎😎 Seriously, even prettier in person and great quality. 17/10, do recommend. And I don’t give ringing endorsements to everything, because I can be a bitch 😌😌😌
Keep seeing posts likening America to the Titanic. Fairly accurate I suppose, except that the staff who won’t let Irish kids in boats are gloating DOGE teens and instead of a sympathetic four piece band to play us out we have Green Day and Pussy Riot.
Since Nov, each day has been different: some days I wake up so angry I want to break bricks, some days I want to cover the hurt with kindness, some days I’m primed to innovate and resist and fight. But today…today I am sorrow. I’m made of it and it’s heavy and I don’t know how to push through it.
i'm holding your hands, gently april 7 is the start of national library week. get your library card. write your library board. check out 10 books. use your library. do it.
Handy tip sheet for comics creators & small business folk: AI = bad Amazon = bad Adobe = bad Gumroad = bad Substack = bad Uline = bad StickerMule = bad Patreon & Subscribestar = iffy Indie bookstores & comic shops = good Itch = good Ghost & Buttondown = good USPS = good, but being sabotaged
