Small press. Fantasy, romance, horror. MN. Lots of swearing. Our handle is fubar until I fix the website issue so: https://malloryglass.com/press-kit We'd be deadlier if we weren't so lazy. Maybe.

AI is a threat to humanity in that it's the largest mass surveillance and hacking system we've ever built that all companies will have to rely on for security that demand endless growth energy and resources in a planet drowning in fossil fuel pollution

OMG I'm famous! Okay, so famous might be an overstatement. But I wrote about being scarred for life by vampires, and that's the next best thing. #horror #vampires #author #wtfmom

It’s voting day in MN! Going to take a little walk down to my precinct shortly and vote Peggy Flanagan. Craig is the worst. A baldfaced fake and a liar. She tries to pretend she doesn’t support ICE but her Laken Riley vote says otherwise. Corporate candidate. Endorsed by millionaires

Why couldn't you just let the man do his thing? Mahershala Ali is pretty great. They wasted him on doing ... nothing. Is it sooooo hard to make the Blade movie? You can make 1000 Avengers movies and 1000 Spiderman movies + some crap we won't even talk about, but you can't make 1 Blade movie? 😭
Mahershala Ali says he’s moved on from ‘Blade’ “I have moved on … I'm good … you had me under contract … if they wanted to do the movie, we would've done the movie. So we're not doing the movie … They didn't want to do it, so they should answer that question” (via GQ Magazine)
Bluesky, I need some #3Dprinter advice. I may receive a small biz grant for a 3D printer. I'd like to use it for business items ("swag") rather than a hobby, so I would like to get a solid model. Say the available funds are between $300-900. What would get us started? Model? Supplies?
This is not how a democracy operates.
