@lgbtqreads.bsky.social Hello fellow writers/readers: I am looking for one or more of you to review my latest novel, Simpleman, just published last month. If you have time and interest in gay fiction, please DM me and I will happily send you an ePub file of the manuscript. Abundant thanks!

One very happy novelist…my 6th to be published.

It’s the last Saturday of Pride. I’ve done tributes for the icons. But today, this one’s for the living. For everyone still fighting to exist, to love, to speak, while leaders strip rights and fuel hate. You’re not alone. Here’s a few poems for the battle. 💙🌈 #Pride #Poetry #Resist #blueskypoets

And why wouldn’t Canada charge a digital services tax on American based tech companies raking in millions of dollars in profits off the backs of Canadians? Duh!

Happy Canada Day Long Weekend and Elbows back up, Canada!

No more pretending, it is now completely in the open, some folks in the US can’t tolerate people that are not white like them, and don’t have the same values. Nothing new here, the racism and intolerance is just so overtly in your face.

Taco’s messages on Zohran Mamdani are clearly inappropriate and unacceptable. But I am happy to see him pissed as he indirectly names the people he fears most.

Blessed Solstice. Make way for a magical and peaceful summer.

It's easy to think it's a problem of the past & the gays should just get over it. But did you know that here in Canada last year, 77% of 2SLGBTQ+ youth were physically or verbally bullied, and that 27% thought it might be better to take their life because they think no one in the world loves them?

The more orange tan man talks about the 51st State, the more he irritates Canadians. Keep going, you are helping Canadians stay united.

My 11th novel, and 6th to be published (later this fall) has just been handed over to my trusted editor. I started it January 1st, wanting to complete a novel in 6 months so I could tune out the NEWS—and I did it!

When Grace Clements walked across the stage at her university’s commencement ceremony this week, she leaped onto the school president and gave him a giant bear hug — bringing him straight to the ground. Jim Clements, the president of Clemson University, is Grace Clements’s father. wapo.st/4d9Md42

Linda McMahon, Secretary of Education, sent Harvard a letter. They graded it. Bwahahaha.

For. The. People.

I love this thought…

If Trump’s talking—he’s lying‼️ China’s President Xi is not talking to Trump, and there is no tariff deal. Expecting China to quickly fold was a huge miscalculation by Trump and he’s trying to cover it up. China is in this for the long haul and Trump is negotiating with himself.

@scarycutedinos.bsky.social Thanks!

Canada is ranked 1 in education, 3 in safety, 4 in justice, 4 in overall best country. We are not a broken country. We have not suffered a lost decade. Our existence is in the balance. Vote.

Just because there are humans behind the Bluesky Profiles.
