I'm obsessed with this story by @katherinegarrison.bsky.social at @foofarawpress.bsky.social So clever... it's the kind of story that feels like fun, and then the sad and chilling undertow pulls you deep. Also, the audio narration is fabulous!

“30% of our international travel are Canadians, and we're seeing an impact to our state.” - @cortezmasto.senate.gov I wonder wh— "There are reasons why the president and some of his team referred to Canada as being mean and nasty to deal with, OK." - US Ambassador Pete Hoekstra Oh, right.

That’s de Adder 's Take: buff.ly/YENJWge

Great book, great cover! Check it out!

So many gorgeous pieces here, including this beautiful, thought-provoking poem by the talented @mizukiyamagen.bsky.social Love this title. And I got to the end then went right back to the beginning to devour every word again.

My story is free to read at Crepuscular today! 🥳 I'm rather pleased with this one. Such a treat to be published at this great micro mag!

I'm so excited to have my story, 'Sacrificed to the Ocean', published in this gorgeous issue!

This micro by @scmillsbooks.bsky.social is fabulous! Vibrant imagery, and an emotional journey in 100 words. ❤️👏

I tried to go to Mark Cuban's page to see what he's been saying about the political situation lately, and apparently I'm blocked because I've been added to some pro-AI list? I am absolutely not an AI apologist and think AI has no place in creative spaces. How do people end up added to these packs?

Amazing, exciting news! Such a gorgeous story, written by a wonderful writer and human. Yay!

So thrilled to have this itty-bitty weird romance up on X-R-A-Y today! 🥳

So... this just happened. 👀 My story, The Heart Outside My Body, won the Heart Writing Battle. 🥳 Waiting for that to sink in...

A joke for us consultants who might get a *bit* too comfortable on the bench…

A piece I wrote for @twistinthetale.bsky.social is published today with The Anti-Misogyny Club! We've all got at least one Medusa story in us, right?

IMPORTANT: If you live in the United States or Canada, you’ve probably heard Trump‘s constant claim that the United States is “subsidizing” Canada. It’s wrong of course, but here’s the best explanation I’ve seen about how & why it’s wrong. PLEASE WATCH & SHARE IT A LOT. Kudos to Andrew Chang & CBC.

Excellent overview of the issue with this. Thanks, Steve! (Follow his channel. It's great.)

Canadians, do not allow CBC radio to host a "discussion" with Americans about whether or not Canada should exist as a country. We must not normalize this. Email [email protected]. Contact the ombudsman. cbc.radio-canada.ca/en/ombudsman If this airs, we boycott and call for resignations.

No. Call it out as a threat against our sovereignty. These are not simply "comments" to be discussed. Trump is violating international law. Do not normalize this. Do not frame this as if it's remotely reasonable. Do not send the message to Americans that Canadian sovereignty is up for debate.

This was so good!! Ben is a writing friend who is also a magician, and he's amazing at both -- which is very clear from this bit of storytelling magic.

So happy to have this piece published at foofaraw today! A little friendship chaos, for anyone in the mood for a lighter read. 🎶🍄

Every ten minutes here is like: - Trump doubles student debt - Musk now has keys to your house and is in your bathroom doing plumbing drugs - Three planes just crashed - Trump signs EO making women illegal - Face-melted Nazi from Indiana Jones now in charge of CIA - Meteor not arriving fast enough

Yes! Love this. Lots of other great and inspiring content on her YT channel too.

Canada is participating too. Let's make it global!

Always new amazing things to discover in this world. Wow!

I want to talk about my move from Substack to Ghost for a second, and what it's been like working with a nonprofit tech company that actually lives its values. Especially if you're a writer still on Subtack, please read. 1/x First of all, about the org: They are a nonprofit, I just met employee +

Fabulous and moving story by @jaimegill.bsky.social. So happy to see this one find an amazing home!

Take a few minutes to read this amazing flash by @cuylermeade.bsky.social.

Buckle in for an awesome ride in this 7-part interview of @cuylermeade.bsky.social’s new story with @intrepidusink.bsky.social, “La Perla de Gran Precio”!

Trump has been clear — he's using economic pressure to try & annex Canada. If US corporations can lobby for tax breaks, they can lobby to stop a war in NA. Time to apply our own pressure where it might actually help. Cancel services & tell US corporations to fight Trump if they want our $$!

This language describes a coup. You have to be a government employee, subject to the rules & procedures that bind gov employees, to do this kind of work. This is a blatant abuse of the public trust by the Trump administration, a true 5-alarm fire. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

An excellent piece by @timothysnyder.bsky.social and recommended strongly by @hcrichardson.bsky.social - Please read and spread the word!

Time to accept that we simply have a mad king. The guy slapping 25% tariffs on Canada's postage while calling for its annexation - and releasing scarce water into the Central Valley to fight already-contained fires in LA - isn't doing a bit or pursuing a secret, rational strategy

US friends. Please call and write your government officials -- all levels! -- and tell them you do not support Trump's threats against Canada. He has stated he will use economic pressure to annex Canada & military force is not off the table. He is paving the way for war in NA! Please stand up!

Getting it done 11:59 style.
