“Fuck ICE!” chants & a brass band performing “Which side are you on?” as hundreds march in Manhattan, NYC against ICE and in solidarity with Minneapolis.

Fingers crossed

I have -34$ and still need about 1200 to clear my back rent. Any help and shares are SO appreciated!

HARD KNOCKS by me (Ruby Lang) has hockey and is written by someone who's Asian Canadian (and has an Asian Canadian FMC) rubylangwrites.com/practice-per...

It’s the exact same trick they pulled with bigotry. And a lot of people accepted that premise, that people pointing out bigotry are worse than bigots and should be the ones punished. And so now we’re moving on to the next stage of that.

Off on my writing retreat. Wish me luck!

Make it viral.

It brings no relief. Only sadness and the horror of watching people know it’s true and still try to squirm out of it. Slowly fade with the money they made off the back of it. Try to pretend they meant something else. That they didn’t fall for it. Still hating anyone who tried to tell them.

Kinda sucks how one day you’ll post stuff like “does the Grinch use the toilet?” and then the next it has to be “I reject those who worship death”

I had forgotten how gentle and gentlemanly and nervous Harrison is with her in Working Girl. Making sure her skirt is pullled over her knee when she stays passed out in his apartment. Saying he closed his eyes when he got her ready for bed.

Really really struggling at the moment. I know we all are but.

It's so fucking convenient that they get to "fear for their lives" anytime they want to absolve themselves of anything and when we actually fear for our lives because of them and do anything a scared person would do it's justification for our death.

"abolish ice" doesn't seem so extreme anymore, does it, you preposterous, normalizing fucks

Lol that dude‘s letterbox reviews. They’re funny, I’ll give him that. But dear god his taste and ability to discern issues and describe what they are is 99% awful. He obviously doesn’t get the difference between his opinion and objective fact, either.

I dunno why so many were bullish about Sandler getting a nom. I thought his chances seemed dead even before this SAG snub. Also very funny watching everybody catch up to the fact that Elordi is in strong contention. It’s a great Oscar bait role and his performance is wonderful.

If you’re looking for some way to help.

It’s not just plausible, it’s a stone cold fact. They turned Twitter into a far right yes man, just as they like to be surrounded by in all areas, and now they see it as the consensus.

It's good to use the resources at hand to fight because sometimes you win. Also, I keep thinking of the period after this man was killed and how a group of people tried to impose a new social reality. It didn't work. This too is a lesson.

surrounding them after they just killed somebody and shouting “you can’t kill us all, nazis” is legitimate “ready to run through a wall” inspirational

"You gonna murder someone else? You can't kill us all, Nazis."

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?

Reading I Was A Teenage Slasher by Stephen Graham Jones. This dude is now on my auto buy I’m about to binge everything he’s written list.

Finally been able to buy from ModCloth after about three years of them basically not delivering anything to the UK and oh my days. I can’t even talk about the difference in quality compared to other outlets that sell plus sized clothes. Everything lined, belts in the right place, no puckering.

every NYT headline is like…They expected pee: poo greeted them instead

Always gives me a laugh when I get one of those “I’ve recorded you visiting dubious sites and will show everyone“ spam messages because somehow I don’t think my friends and family will be bothered by seeing the worst thing I look at online: funny videos of dogs falling into bins.

TNG

Sharing my fundraiser again in hopes I can get the rest of my rent paid this month before they send me the scary letter (IYKYK). Thanks for donating/sharing!

Apparently there’s a huge snow storm hitting on the exact day I’m meant to be going on my writing retreat. Just my luck, I guess. I’ve never been able to attend writing events, and it wouldn’t shock me if I can’t attend this one too.

I love this reading challenge lol. It just gleefully told me I have read two books so far this year, and so am ahead of my schedule!

It's official! Bookstore registrations for #BookstoreRomanceDay 2026 are now open to ALL #IndieBookstores. Bookstores can register at the link below. Readers & authors, make sure to share the link with your favorite independent bookstores & encourage them to register.

Guys, we did it. We invented the Commodore 64

No, it was a successful coup. None of the people who led it were punished, and are in fact back in power, rewarded for their efforts to break the system by running it. Donald Trump is currently the dictator he attempted to become 5 years ago, and it’s because nobody treated trying as a crime.

I have finished my first read of 2026 and so have started my new reading journey and finished the old one with, as usual, my best and worst reads! Here are the best things I read last year in no particular order:

this is how every outlet should refer to X

“nostalgia for a rose-tinted world is an engine of fascism” a lot of people would do well to remember this, but they’re too busy trying to pretend their rose tinted goggles are clear eyed objective assessments of craft

Tim Curry is somehow terrifying in Clue, nothing has ever made more sense than this

leads to hilarious moments like this

Because aspects of it are a paean to a world before which was better and nostalgia for a rose-tinted world is an engine of fascism; because very few people like to believe they're the evil empire; and because good vs evil narratives are a bedrock of propaganda. I love lotr; don't get me wrong! But.

Pre-orders are open for my sexy messed up space marines @reactorsff.bsky.social story. Get horny sci fi horror for $1.99! LOOK AT THAT ART BRO! bookshop.org/p/books/deat...

In 2026 I am no longer going to fight with plants that keep trying to die and I will simply let them have their wish and replace them with new different plants that are more cooperative.

that's so crazy. i'm sure you put him in prison and banned him from ever holding office again right

lol when women challenge the indignity of sexualization even in the most trivial or gentle ways, men absolutely piss themselves.

damn, that’s crazy justin. personally I’m so manly I can play with my kids for two, maybe three hours at a time

The rise of deepfakes and AI CSAM prove public and private sectors don’t actually care about abuse, but still punish sex workers, queer people, and women under that guise. Credit cards companies and law enforcement punish consensual sex and sexuality, but ignore and therefore encourage abuse

This is what real fucking men do

A special, souped up, fancy pages collector’s edition of Indigo coming soon. I’ll keep you posted.

If you studied history, gender, and sociology this moment in America is terrifying and hilariously enraging. Men (especially white men) are the obstacles to human progress at every turn. And they refuse to consider it

I think a lot about January 2021 as a moment when the choices were evident at the time and all the ones with power made the wrong ones. If we are lucky we will have another such chance and hopefully do better.
