I write. I'm a resister to Fascism. I'm into science fact and good fiction, love Star Trek/Wars. I'm kind, an Empath, an Old Soul just trying to find my way through this life.

In cases you were wondering . . . this is a photo that annoyed Pete Hegseth so much because he thought it was "unflattering" so he got the photographer barred. I encourage all of you to use it as often as possible.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

Greetings, new friends! You may know me as an author, a prolific Bluesky poster and 4th place finisher on So You Call That Dancing? But you might not know that my partner Judith (@mzpress) and I have an online arts bookstore that's growing every day. Full inventory here: mzs.press/EVERYTHING-W...

The covers of three books. Left to right: Gandolfini: Jim, Tony, and the life of a legend, about the late Sopranos actor. The cover shows Gandolfini looking shy, peering offscreen with one unobstructed eye and another that peeks out between the fingers of his right hand.
CENTER: The cover of Cinema Her Way, a coffee table book by Marya E. Gates about female directors. On the cover is actress Michelle Rodriguez as the boxer heroine of Karyn Kusama's sports drama Girlfight, about a woman boxer. 
RIGHT David Hockney's painting collection The Arrival of Spring in Normandy, showing a painting of a verdant field. In the background of the field is green grass. in the upper foreground are the branches of a tree sprouting white, cottony buds.

I've begun the process of building a small prototype of a 'Cleanbot' made from aluminum cans. I just reied to use wire cutters to cut the can, and - lesson learned. I ordered a cheap cutter made for cutting sheet metal. Pic below.

You know what bothers me the most about the Minnesota killing? How casually he did it. His weapon wasn't out and he didn't seem stressed or to be giving orders to stop, he just fired. This wanton disregard for life must stop.

I have a feeling that we've been played about Trump’s disappearance. Someone convinced him (properly) that it would be a greater distraction if he gave up his phone and personal appearances.

That was a very weird dream, combining two traumatic experiences into one very uncomfortable dream: Call centers and roller coasters. Made worse when they asked me to train someone while doing it.

When sanity returns and this madness ends, we need to do a complete set of laws to make sure this does not happen again, such as a law that no bill can affect more than one agency at a time, so no more ‘big, beautiful bills’ will haunt our halls.

Just had a daydream that mushroomed into a story I'm calling it ‘Addicted to Death.’ I don't usually come up with horror, but this is so vivid and compelling I just can't help myself. I'll ‘flesh” it out a bit and get back to you.

This is one I haven't recorded yet. I’m terrible at love By Michael H Fox Sung in the style of Nat King Cole or Barry Manilow I’m terrible at love, I know I sit and I stare, my eyes all aglow At your beauty and charm from afar, But when you get near, my heart almost stops And I turn away
