I have this problem with movie trailers; they show too much and because I'm a natural dot-joiner now I wont go see the actual movie because I already know who kisses and/or betrays who, who dies, and how it ends. I need genuine surprise and intrigue to get me to buy a movie ticket or book. 📚 ✍️🍿🎦

OMG no. Stop. Leaving Gaston to be a terrible warning if not a good example would be a public service. I can count more women than I have fingers that can credit TB&TB, Shania Twain -TDIMM, and Shrek for having- and I quote "being given essential basic standards in men" during their formative years.

Quick reminder: could use some people to boost the signal for a cover reveal tomorrow/this week. Answer this tweet if you do? The books are US market but happy to consider anyone who's willing.

I was diagnosed with #HIV in 1998, when I was 30. Many of my friends had died of AIDS. I did not expect to live to 50. I’m 58 now. HIV treatment works. Treatment also makes it impossible for me to pass HIV on during sex. Ensure HIV treatment for all. End HIV stigma. #WorldAIDSDay

Thinking about all the sites & services companies I never bought into the hype to use because I never gave enough of a rats' backside turn from the "eh it's not great" bad side to the "WTAF?!!!" bad side this year and feeling grateful to have dodged the emotional labor of disappointment switching. 😌

Mentioned Evr* and now getting automated DMs from their customer services "team". I imagine if you stand in front of a mirror and say their name three times a smashed up parcel eerily arrives on the front porch. Only not your front porch. One several miles away.

When you buy my books, ask for them at the library, or recommend them to someone you know, you help me keep writing. I’m a freelancer. There is no safety net under me. I literally live by my writing. The reason I can do this is because of you all.

idiot guy: i'm like the wolf i'm stalking my prey alone through the forest and being raw as fuck even if i'm in a group i'm the alpha actual wolf: i love my friends so much!!! i love to romp and kiss my bros and work together as a family <3 awooo etc etc have you seen the puppies oh my god come see

I was just looking over the new prints I made in 2025. Think about portraying pollinators. 🧪🐡🐝 This print shows a great little pollinator in the garden: a transverse-banded flower fly (Eristalis transversa) on Echinacea purpurea or purple coneflower. Because of its yellow stripes, tendency to

The first I see or hear anything about this (movie/tv show? I didn't get that far) and there's something seriously wrong with the lion that it makes me feel so seasick that I can tell it's not worth watching. www.thepinknews.com/wp-content/u... There's 20-25 yrs old CGI that's x100 better than this.

My advice for modern #libraries is if there's one thing you can do to make hospital-white walls in your building more inviting on a low budget it is simply turn off the fluorescent overhead lights, and use cozy desk lamps and multiple long lengths of warm-white LED lights along the ceilings instead.

Another reason I like the secondhand bookshop instead of a nearer chain bookshop and it's not just that secondhand is good for the environment and keeps a local business going, but also the secondhand bookshop is like an arcane library and the chain store too clinical and minimalist. #booksky 1/2

Earlier today, I was notified that someone was at my door. This is who it was:

Reposting this in case you missed it yesterday. I wrote a blog about ... I think ... I think it's about healing and art and where those things intersect in my life right now. wilwheaton.net/2025/11/im-s...

I did it. I made the zine. Empty Inside is a perzine exploring what it's like to be autistic in small, everyday moments. Volume 1 focuses on interoceptive hyposensitivity, which is a sensory processing difference where a person has reduced or muted awareness of their body's internal signals.

Some advice from a couple of years ago that I still think most creative people need to hear --

Just gonna second this bsky.app/profile/nort... by adding a note: People in positions of power who attack others lower on the ladder using personal appearance give away how petty, small, and undeserving of that power they really are.

I foresee we'll have extremely traumatised youngsters coming out of the woodwork when they are older because they were bombarded by bodyhorror slop as toddlers. They absorb everything in full wonder but often can't verbalise to ask wtf does the snowman look like that.

I don’t want to formulate words yet, but my friend Alice Wong, @sfdirewolf.bsky.social of the Disability Visibility Project, has passed. Here are the words she left behind: www.instagram.com/p/DREMDNBjnq...

When you smash your little toe into the table-leg in the dark:

...the source of the Cs-137 contamination was traced to the steel melting plant Peter Metal Technology (PMT)... PMT reportedly imported scrap metal contaminated with Cs-137 as its raw material.
