Listening to polls be like: Trump may finally be losing Republican support: with the war in Iran, high food and gas prices, the pedophilia, his ‘Let them eat cake’ focus on building a lavish ballroom and monuments to himself, and open corruption, his support is down from 88% to 87% among MAGA! #vote
I think what we REALLY need in the WH press pool is a couple of young scousers! www.threads.com/share/BAY4xK...

Finally saw Haute & Freddy. I bought tickets to their very first tour and rallied my friends to go… then a conflict arose. Then again… and a conflict arose. But got to see them at last, and they were amazing. And the crowd — so many wonderful and wonderfully weird people. #hauteandfreddy #concerts
A lovely sunny Sunday in Bellingham, catching up with these two lovely friends, and meeting a whole new group of awesome writers.
A fun birthday week of roller skating to 80s tunes with rollering friends and hanging with writer friends writing all writerly at a sunny pub.
I love getting little postcard stories from @eskaftun.bsky.social every week. Such a nice moment of creativity and whimsy and inspiration amongst all the doomy and spammy stupidity I otherwise get. Check out her profile for her Patreon link. Totally worth it. #flashfiction #stories #amreading
Sugar gliders just trying to rest inside a mimic’s mouth without getting eaten. Aren’t we all these days. Had a lovely #Norwescon as always, thanks to the hard work of the incredible volunteers, great fellow panelists, and the company of so many awesome friends old and new. @norwescon.org
Ground News delivering them scifi writing prompts! Everything’s going to work out totally fine. #scifi #writing #writingprompts
A couple of random photos I took recently, without comment.
I mean, has everyone checked their Signal app? He might have accidentally shared the top secret reason with you.
I drew a little something in Procreate to capture how I’m feeling. Obviously needs like three more waves but this captures the gist… #politics #trump #maga #gop #ai #economy #authoritarianism #climatecrisis #politicalcartoon #lgbt #transrightsarehumanrights
Ran into a troll in Issaquah. It’s right behind me, isn’t it … A shame these trolls didn’t exist when I was writing Finn Fancy Necromancy. Maybe I can work them into a future novel. #troll #fantasy #artwork #magic #fantasybooks #adventure #hobbit #pacificnorthwest
Had a blast going with friends to WET LEG last night (with awesome opening act Mary in the Junkyard). Pre-show hangout at the Pine Box, a former mortuary turned bar/ pizza restaurant. #wetleg
I LOVE getting fun surprises in my mail and email, not just junk, especially when news and social feeds are so doomscrolly. If you could use fun and creativity in your inbox, definitely subscribe to Emily Skaftun's Patreon to get her weekly postcard fiction: www.patreon.com/skaftun #amreading
Saw Chuck Tingle on Wednesday. Fun, funny, and full of love and positivity as always. His are the only horror novel readings I’ve been to, but I assume all horror novel readings are full of sparkle and energy and laughter and love, right? ;p #chucktingle #loveisreal
FIRST: I love that Washington's Secretary of State Steve Hobbs is a D&D player/GM who goes by "Happy Tracker Meow Meow." SECOND: I love that he and UW professor Jin Ha Lee are advocating ways games can be used to train folks to battle misinformation. www.kuow.org/stories/pop-... #dnd #resistance
Pop Culture: Can games like Dungeons and Dragons combat disinformation?
Find out how Dungeon and Dragons could save the nation. With lies on social media traveling faster than reason, could this nerdy role playing game be the answer to combating disinformation?

What's in the Trump/GOP big, ugly bill? -Tax cuts skewed to the rich -Medicaid & SNAP cuts -Public land sell off -Big Oil tax loopholes -Blocks state and local regulation against AI -More money for defense contractors The oligarchy's wishlist.
Selena Gomez flavored Oreos?! I know there was that whole Gweneth Paltrow’s V-scented candle. And I realize people love Yellowjackets and Hannibal and I-Zombie and all. But this just seems a bad idea to me. I mean, what if they get “the hunger”?! #selenagomez #alwayssunny
I love that people are reportedly glitter bombing a certain group of masked kidnappers so that they are identifiable without their masks. Can’t get rid of glitter! The power of sparkle!
It’s amazing how many chores I find suddenly interesting and urgent when I need to write a difficult emotional scene. #amwriting #amvacuuming #ammakingasnack #amdecluttering #amdoingdishes #ammakinganothersnack #whatwasIwriting #ohyesithinkitsdinnertimenow #amwonderingwhyicantloseweight
