Ford came up with this nice ad in honor of International Women’s Day. #Pinks

Meet my newest creations: the Gloom-Wilders. I designed and hand-sewed them, and I hand-embroidered all their flowers, stars, and markings. They're a family of spirits who live in a haunted woodland (haunted because they live there). jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

I have so many better things to do in my yard, but now I want to build an insect house to replace the insect pile.

Again, the RULES for Hugo Editor: Long Form have changed, and the indie editors who have been out *doing it* are now eligible. Please consider Bill Campbell (Rosarium Publishing) Catherine Lundoff (Queen of Swords Press) They have both confirmed eligibility. Do it! And tell people!

Way back with the old streetcars I did a relevant parody. I sort of hoped it would no longer be relevant someday. No such luck. spacing.ca/toronto/2008...

I'd also like to share these this #InternatioanlWomensDay These are special protective sigil badges I made and blessed. The sales from all badges go directly to Transgender Equality Network Ireland. Trans women are women 🏳️‍⚧️♀️ hayleymulch.com/products/tra... #BSNM #WitchSky #SpéirGorm

the whole purpose of the post-menopausal woman is to prevent the rise of generative AI

It's alarming that it very well might have been! In times of upheaval we might think clinging to what is comfortable is the answer but the opposite is true: exposure to all kinds of art connects you MORE deeply to humanity and gives you MORE comfort and verve

These babies have no patience when it comes to getting da milky

You can't write to please somebody in a TikTok, or to worry about trends - they come and go with regularity (believe me, I've been doing this for over thirty years - I've seen all subgenres of Romance die and be reborn). You write to please yourself, and tell the story of your heart. That's all.

If you're wondering how bad things were at Pixar for women, the answer is pretty horrifyingly bad.

Happy International Women's Day. 🏴

To take your minds off what’s going on in this country, here’s an unbelievably talented knitwear designer who does bespoke knitwear from vintage patterns. She’s in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 but will ship to the US. She’s an amazing artist. www.fieldsatelier.eu/knitwear

I love Peep Rex.

What happens when you want to repaint behind your bookcases (A dining room. The floor around the table is covered in small stacks of books. Going up, the table itself is stacked with a solid cube of books, 3x2x3 feet. There are also books on another area of the floor. All genres and types.)

This site is pretty fun!

Y'all know this, but just a friendly reminder... If you're doing the time change (even if you aren't_ it's time to swap out smoke alarm batteries. If you're in Ontario (maybe elsewhere) you need a CO alarm on every storey of homes with a fuel-burning appliance, fireplace, or attached garage.

This is a sheer indulgence on my part, but it turns out I never actually shared the poem here, so: 🍃

Just a warning that when this game releases widely I'll be incommunicado for at least a week

Canadians always wring our hands and debate what makes our country different from the US when it was always this: a profoundly different attitude toward other members of society. Somehow this has always been obvious to me which makes me frustrated when the topic comes up.

Surprise! It's a new book!

We're thrilled to reveal Carrying by Samantha Josephs, a biting new horror novel about a stealth trans woman desperate to maintain her picture-picture life discovers that she’s seemingly—impossibly—pregnant:

BIL sent me this video no context and I have been laughing for fifteen minutes

Wow, amazing #sciart via @thisiscolossal.com

This work is made by the renowned Ukrainian artist Ivan Marchuk, who invented the unique painting style called "plyontanism" (from the Ukrainian word plyontaty, meaning "to braid"). This technique consists of hundreds of fine, intertwined lines that create depth and an almost textile-like texture.
