Ra’tha endures the rigid traditions of his ziggurat home through sensuality and spectacle. When his brother returns from war marked for death, the sands shift. Ancient magick resurges in Ra’tha’s hands. Beset by divided loyalties, he must choose duty or desire before the desert buries all he loves.

the “playful superstitions” part is incredible

The CA Democratic party is having its convention in SF. So yesterday there was a lovely rally for trans healthcare at Moscone Center. Honey Mahogany and some trans kids spoke. It filled me with hope for my community. Here are some of the fantastic signs I saw.

We handle it by staying the hell home, right, people? Give emergency responders a break. Don't push your luck, especially along the coast. That's a blizzard warning.

Got to be up at 3:00 am in the morning for inventory, so I should sleep. I am pooped.

On the ground in San Jose.

One of these is not like the others…🎶

We have almost no safety net in the US. Teri is a kidlit writer who lost her job and is coping with a brain tumor. If you can spare a few bucks, it would really help.

The royal family owns 0.2% of all wealth in the UK Musk owns 0.5% of US wealth (and the US has about 12x more wealth than the UK) Individual robber barons of the US are wealthier than entire monarchies Let that sink in

A pissy man child who shits himself at a televised press conference is threatening to destroy the American economy in unspecified and probably illegal ways because the courts told him he couldn’t destroy the American economy the illegal way he wanted to.

Reminder - go gas up your car! If you're on the east coast, you're about to be blizzarded. And within the next week, 10% of the global oil supply may go offline (everything going through the Red Sea)

As Trump accelerates mass detention and tramples over due process, I'm announcing a new philanthropic collaboration and ramping up mutual aid support to help California nonprofits connect families with basic needs and essential services. We will always stand by our communities.

Our tax dollars at work "As Karen got to know the guards at the Northwest ICE Processing Center..., she kept hearing the same thing from them: that ICE officers are paid a bonus every time they detain someone. 'Individual ICE agents get money per head that they detain—the guards told me that'"

What a rare thing it is to witness joy these days

The world of Heart of the Tiers doesn't have any labels except one: "tada'ai" It means "love for love's sake" (as opposed to biological imperative). But through a modern lens, Ra'tha is pansexual but physically drawn more to men. #WritingCommunity #Libraro #HotT 1-3 app.libraro.com/manuscript/r...

And, now, a new stressor. Sigh. Most of them come up suddenly. Unexpectedly. (The business trip came up spur of the moment, but not unexpectedly.) I've got to try to deal with it before I go to the airport tomorrow.

Finally got my Midnight Collector's Edition that my daughter bought me for Christmas. I put in the code tonight. Not claiming a house yet because daughter has a neighborhood charter for me to sign. Sadly, I leave for the work trip tomorrow and won't be back until next Thursday.
