Snufkin is the only dog I’ve ever known to really use pillows. He drags them into place, moves them around, makes himself comfortable …

The World Inequality Report shows that 0.001% of the world’s population hold 3 times as much wealth as half of the world population. The 1% in the UK have almost 5 times as much wealth as 50% of the population combined. Inequality is a political choice. It's time to tax wealth.

Unless you're reading this from your private jet, the same system is oppressing us all. linktr.ee/boldpolitics

People are choosing a politics of decency, courage and imagination. They’re choosing a politics that doesn’t scapegoat the vulnerable or remain quiet on injustice. People are choosing to make hope normal again. www.newstatesman.com/politics/uk-...

Reform accepted £9 million from a former Boris Johnson backer & crypto-multimillionaire. Today, Nigel Farage postures as a righteous defender of the same democracy he actively undermines. Democracy should never be for sale. It's time for a cap on political donations.

1/3 **MAYORAL ELECTIONS DELAYED TIL 2028!** Labour: incompetent, scared & zero regard for democracy. The devolution agenda they sprung on us a year ago is in utter chaos, they are terrified of their plummeting in the polls, and - most importantly...

#WritersCoffeeClub Dec 20. Is anyone getting a copy of your latest book for Christmas? Only inasmuch Thereafter is free and available for all to read at buttondown.com/VictorSDale

Reposting stuff so I can tag it: pinup edition. Lucita Santo Domingo, the leading lady of my queer noir horror webcomic-to-be. I'm excited to have more time to work on it this coming year. 🖤 #CarmineArt #SaintSunday #OC

Wise Man. I just got here, I don't know anyone present, and I'm having some second thoughts about the assumptions I made about which gift to bring.

#WritersCoffeeClub Dec 7. What do you think is the most critical element in storytelling? An emotional throughline. Fiction is meant to take the reader on a journey of emotion. As such it must not lose track of what it want the reader to feel at the end of it and how it plans to get there.

#WritersCoffeeClub Dec 2. From all your work, who's your favorite character? It's probably One, the morally ambiguous plotter from The Clockwork Boy. She's just a very fun wrench to throw into the plans of both the heroes and villains. She has plans herself, but WOW are you not privy to them

#WritersCoffeeClub Dec 2. From all your work, who's your favourite character? That will be Nourash, my little scammer 💕 with a hard to ignore chaotic energy, he enjoys stirring up situations just for fun and tends to gravitate towards people who can measure up against his nasty attitude

Pitch your book as a 1 star Goodreads review. #WritingPrompt "⭐ Why does this story about building a society from the bottom have to get so political?"

#WordWeavers Nov 27. Describe one of your characters from the POV of another character. Felipe on Michael: Big Boy! Built like a luchador, walks around like he's afraid of breaking stuff. Bit of a stick up his ass, but his ears get red when he's angry. It's a good look, in a "farm boy" kinda way.

5 good reasons to read Thereafter 1: It's about the wonder of childhood and the weight of adulthood 2: It's set in a vivid jigsaw puzzle city 3: Messy mspecs save the world 4: Post-apocalyptic Fantasy Reconstruction 5: It's FREE buttondown.com/VictorSDale

I love Thereafter, I definitely recommend subscribing to my dear friend's newsletter here ✨

"a better world is possible, but not easy" seems to be one. "Be gay, join a union" is another.

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy The tiny speck in the rightmost sunbeam. That's us. That's here.

My friend Teacup does amazing 3D models (along with all her other art!). The wand she did for Mechanics looks so good 😍 Definitely check out her stuff!

Honestly, it's Michael's busted knee. It's this permanent reminder of his childhood magical adventure that he constantly has to manage. Him deciding to actually manage it rather than grin and bear it, in part by getting a cane and slowing down a touch, is my favorite subplot

It started, as so many other things do at the age I am, pondering the many obscure pains of being An Adult. The second thought was "boy, I bet you'd need so much therapy after going to Narnia." These two eventually merged into #Thereafter

A portal fantasy set in a city made out of the shattered remnants of myriad destroyed worlds. It's a story of the weight of adulthood, queer love, and how to be a hero in a desperately flawed world, and you can read the chapters I've released so far right now! buttondown.com/VictorSDale

Today calls for a dog picture!

#Thereafter is already somewhat serial in nature due to how I release it. It'd make for a pretty fun TV series I think, running the plot of the main books as an A plot with the childhood adventures of our heroes as a B plot for contrast/exposition. It could also make a truly mystifying Musical 🤔

First bluesky post has got to be the beasts~ Grumpy Spilla and bluescreened Cipolla 💕
