Just worked out for the first time in a week and a half.

Me: "Welp, no more spending until the next paycheck." @goastromo.bsky.social: *has a new book about women inventors for pre-order* Me:

I could never be a forest witch. I just moved my folding chair to the pavement because the grass hasn’t been mowed at my son’s baseball game.

Hey! If you were published at Daily Science Fiction, be aware that a site called Science Fiction Weekly has stolen the entire story database & posted it on their site. All of my DSF stories are there without my permission. sciencefictionweekly.com

Instead of finishing my short story, I've decided to start a novel.

Came across this online, which reminds me of "Make Me Better" by @sarahgailey.bsky.social . (I'm only 2/3 through, so no spoilers!) It's also just kind of how I go through life.

Is he dead already?

In exactly one week, the Tales to Terrify staff goes back into our well and will no longer accept stories for this submissions period. We'll let you know the next time someone watches the VHS tape so we can reopen.

Working on a new story that's coming along excruciatingly slowly. But a space revolution doesn't happen overnight.

Help wanted.

White supremacists are carping about a black women playing a character in Greek mythology. Hollywood's most egregious casting was when it hired white people as non-white characters, not the other way around. LEFT: Katharine Hepburn in “Dragon Seed.” RIGHT: Mickey Rooney in “Breakfast at Tiffany’s.”

I'm a heterosexual lady, but I'd launch a thousand ships for Lupita Nyong'o.

If Jesus can be portrayed as white then Helen of Troy can be portrayed as black.

Reading "Make Me Better" by @sarahgailey.bsky.social. It's my fourth book by them. They are definitely on my "must-read" list as soon as any new book comes out. Sarah could write IKEA instructions, and I'd read them.

Me: “Now that the US is out, who are we rooting for?” 14YO soccer fan son: “France.” Me: “…ok, but…” 14: “…” 14: *sighs* “You can root for Norway.” Me: “THEY ARE ADORABLE UNDERDOGS AND I WANT TO DO THE ROW. I’m only human.” 14: “It’s fine.” 🇳🇴

Words to live by!

We couldn't pick, so we made a magazine that wants them both. Don't forget to submit your hilarifying story to Die Laughing Mag before subs close on July 15! We want to read what you are writing! Submission Guidelines: dielaughingmag.com/a...

It's come to our attention at the pod that there's some confusion over our genre. As a gentle reminder: -Horror scifi👍 -Pure scif👎 -Dark fantasy with horror elements👍 -Pure fantasy👎 Blumhouse has a great list of horror subgenres with examples for those who want to know more: tinyurl.com/27stj93a 👻

Remember when social media convinced Weezer to cover Toto's "Africa?" That, but with the Indigo Girls covering Boston's "More Than a Feeling." Back me up, here.

14YO and I saw the new "Supergirl" movie, and we both really liked it! Instead of saving the world like a loser, in this one Supergirl saves HER DOG. I'm much more on board with that.
