“Why is he trying to ramp up anti-🇨🇦 sentiment instead of just invading,” you ask? Because he knows it would be foolish to attack when 70% of his own population opposes it. Anyhow, please know Canada is not stealing fish. We have plenty off our ENORMOUS COASTLINE. 🤦🏻‍♀️

This me, only way less hot. And my full-length mirror doesn’t love me nearly this much 👀

Canada—for the love of all things, don’t mess this up. We have a real opportunity to become an economic powerhouse with Carney at the helm. #canadianelection

The premiers and I agree: we must build one strong Canadian economy, not thirteen. So we will work together to break down internal trade barriers. #DebatDesChefs

Did an interview with yähoo re: LibGen and metä stealing authors’ work: ca.news.yahoo.com/canadian-aut...

President Trump’s tariffs are rupturing the global economy, and seniors are rightfully worried about their savings. My government will protect your retirement by reducing the minimum RRIF withdrawal amount by 25% and increasing the GIS by 5%, tax-free — for a year. liberal.ca/mark-carneys...

The fun thing is that everyone is screwed. It’s “We Are the World” but no one can afford eggs or air and we’re all big mad. Especially Australia 🇦🇺

Are you the stock market, because you’re going down on me all night long while I scream something nonsensical about my uncertain future

⚠️ Don’t trust polls. You MUST get out and vote. The ultimate goal remains keeping the CPC from gaining power. Remain vigilant! Check your riding and vote strategically! SmartVoting.ca #cdnpoli

I’ve realized one reason I like Mark Carney is that he feels extremely…Canadian. There’s no BS manipulation, no pomp or bluster. He’s just a really smart guy who smiles a lot, plays 🏒, and wants to solve a large problem that affects more than just him. I hope Canada keeps our eyes on the prize. 🇨🇦

Ran into a great Canadian at the rink the other day.

Canadians: Do not assume the Liberals have this in the bag. Ask yourselves who you want navigating this country through the next few years, if you’re on the fence. Be critical in your thinking. If you see rumours or inflammatory posts, do your research to see whether they’re true. Elbows Up. 🇨🇦

The unjustified U.S. tariffs hurt Canadian workers. We’re rightly retaliating — and every dollar from our tariffs will support our workers. (1/2)

In case anyone hasn’t yet seen the letter from Senator Tom Tillis of N. Carolina to a U.S. constituent who expressed concern about the language re: Canada as a 51st state, read this. This is how they’re talking about our sovereign nation. Mention of “territory.” NO statehood. 🇨🇦

Unfortunately my nervous system can’t tell the difference between having my country’s sovereignty repeatedly threatened and being held at gunpoint

Sometimes, I wonder what it would take to turn them against him. Then I remember there were people dying from covid who cried out as they died that they didn’t have covid and it was a hoax. And I remember that it’s not about making them listen—it’s about DOING something.

Dear USA: you need to fight back WAY harder. This headline alone is batsh!t crazy.

“Canadians aren’t seriously feeling threatened, are they?” My brother just texted this to me, the biggest pacifist and firearms loathed in the world, and I’m all for it:

The Canadian weather is currently trying to build a wall and I’m here for it🇨🇦😌

“But he loves us and wants what’s best! He’s cutting spending and saving us money!” they cry as their jobs melt into sebaceous puddles of goo

Speaking as a dystopian author and a human: We’re not living in a dystopian novel, my friends. We’re living in the prequel. The flashback era where people storm the Capitol to protest a legitimate election and refuse to storm it to protest an actual coup.

Good news at last, y’all

I don’t want AI to write books for me. I want AI to tell me how to overthrow fascist regimes without leaving my bed

Mood 📚💙

It’s no coincidence that the book I just released takes place in a land where most people can’t afford food and the govt distracts them with public murd3rs of their common “enemy” and the book I’m releasing next takes place in a land where girls and women are traded and treated like pets 🤷🏻‍♀️

“I hate when authors are political” Me: Okay, I’ll just write about dragons then 🐉

I love how people always say, “Put your butt in that chair and write your novel” like some of us aren’t melting into our comfy beds while we spew out 100,000 words with our fingers

“How long does it take you to write a 100,000-word novel” Me: 6 days for the first 95,000 words. 6 months for the last two chapters 📕💙

If you’re entering 2025 with the hopes of ruining your business in an expedient manner, use generative AI instead of humans to do human work. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Have we not learned by now that absorbing every horrible impulse and lack of filter displayed on social media means AI is, at its core, horrible?

If you're a self-publishing author and considering an AI designed cover, please realize that it will likely look like 8,000 other covers out there. It's your book. It deserves a real cover design. Lots of aspiring illustrators and designers are at the ready to help out. #selfpublishing

Very cool to see Mitch McConnell of all people state that we’re in a “very dangerous” world filled with fascists, no worries there, cool cool

People who think smütty books are new have never read the Decameron (1350h or Heptameron (1568) and it shows 📚💙

How to tell if someone uses AI in their posts, a two-part guide: • frequent use of words like “crumpet,” “sesquicentennial” and “gooberdashery” • the pfp looks like a rubbery puppet ripped from the minds of a million long-dead spider monkeys

Every time someone claims that em dashes are evidence that a human is using AI to generate their posts, an angel’s arm falls off
