"As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald."

Signed a publishing contract !

The neighbor paid a private company to asphalt the road in front of her house (illegal) and now she's not allowing the garbage truck to drive on it to pick up garbage from the one house past hers. Like, not just while it sets...forever, to prevent damage. Drama ensues.

Very fun that A Magic Fierce & Bright is a current finalist for the Washington State Book Award

The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Now listening to this amazing audiobook by @melissacaruso.bsky.social - and it’s narrated by my favorite narrator Moira Quirke who narrates Gideon the Ninth !! Soooo good !!! Highly recommend

This looks so good ! Get a copy on netgalley (somehow that autocorrected to meth alley instead of net galley!!!)

Inside the Library - by Sarah Marie Shaboyan (smshaboyan.com). #wardsmorguefile #moreartlessdoom

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

I'm absolutely thrilled to share that there will be a Waterstones special edition of THE LAST SOUL AMONG WOLVES!!!! Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!! Look how beautiful it is! I can't wait to have this in my hands!!!

If there ever was an AI that was going to destroy humankind, they’d name it GROK- which is an ork name they stole that means destroyer of worlds obviously #dystopian

Yes !

Now that’s a sky

Spring 2027 Crow and Shadow

"people used to be so much tougher they didn't need vaccines/pasteurization/air conditioning" no idiot they just died

Coming spring 2027!

…

Stop talking about Epstein!

What form of sociopathy required them to need a court order to stop doing this?

two sets of laws: one to enable criminals, one to repress everyone else

www.nytimes.com/2025/07/08/u... This article proves once again that right wing voters have little empathy for others until injustice hits them personally and even then he says he believes immigrants are parasites - while his own immigrant wife works and works !

Americans have been duped. Every other advanced country has universal healthcare, universal education, paid family leave, paid maternity leave, at least 6 weeks paid vacation, living wages, and a commitment to green energy. That’s how you make America great.

They like riding in cars !

I’ve been loudly warning people about the rise of fascism for over 15 years but even now I still get treated like Randy Quaid in Independence Day even though now they have their own massive masked secret police and concentration camps.

There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US. Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them? Or just the brown people?

This IS an important announcement! One of my favorite writers of all time @danielpinkwater.bsky.social (and a very nice person) is writing an adult novel??!! I can’t wait.

Enjoy this wood duck for your #DuckOfTheDay.

I hear this all the time. We are a society that has decided to not provide the basic need of healthcare so that the super rich can get their tax breaks and insurance companies get their profit - everyone should have basic quality healthcare free!!!! Like most every other developed country except us

Listen, it's the last day of Pride and like most of us I'm tired, but if you want to escape the world for a few hours with a badass bi ace mom stuck in a murder time loop at a fancy ball with her sapphic situationship cat burglar rival, I got you covered. www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/melis...

If the bill passes, it will make ICE the nation’s largest jailer, with more funding for prison camps than the entire federal Bureau of Prisons. It would give ICE enough money to have more officers than the entire FBI.

Not enough has been written about Schrödinger’s assistant, Otto.

Everyone should have free quality healthcare available - just like we get public education - just like most every other developed nation

Bluesky is fun, you can read cool posts and post things apparently absolutely no one sees but it’s still fun to think someone might see them !

Cutie pies !

Today I unlocked the half century achievement! Since the quarter century one, I have raised two amazing daughters to adulthood, published 7 books, am better at swordfighting, and own a home, so I think it's a level up all around. 25 year old me would be beside herself with glee to see this shelf.
