6 year old (straight) me and 31 year old (not so straight) me can agree on one thing: Ryoko is always lovely. (hi @petreabs.bsky.social) youtu.be/fhYw_YAMLFc?...

Its release day for the Vitamin Sea audiobook! Everything @deborahbalmvo.bsky.social says about it is true. Thanks, @tantoraudio.bsky.social for casting me with such a great partner. And thanks to #MaiaRoss for writing such fun characters and stories.

@voiceactors.bsky.social is makin’ me blush!

Former President Barack Obama boarded an Honor Flight on Monday to greet 79 veterans and their families as they arrived to visit Washington’s war memorials.

I wish I knew who created this because I’d love to give credit and thank them for the inspiration.

I remember when we shot this. Thanks for posting it, @littlerecordgirl.bsky.social !

This is a blatant attempt to silence and isolate us. He’s stopping the trains, closing the freeways and firing live rounds into California. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. #NoKings

Happening now. Hundreds are gathered outside the US Embassy in London. #NoKings

The inflatable frog has gone global. Today’s #NoKings #NoTyrants rallies in Japan, Australia, Spain, and Germany.

#NoKings Miami!

A great review of Mrs. Plansky’s Revenge by #SpencerQuinn, narrated by me! It’s one of my very favorites. mikefinnsfiction.com/2025/08/29/m...

I think this is so cool. Thank you, @sagaftra.org and @duncanci.bsky.social. time.com/collections/...

Trump declared a fake emergency in D.C. and sent in the military. Congress can end this abuse of power—join @standupamerica.com & demand action now: act.standupamerica.com/letters/cte-...

TOMORROW: We’re taking to the streets in support of the courageous Texas Democrats. Find a protest near you to help fight back against Trump’s effort to rig congressional maps and steal the 2026 election: www.fightthetrumptakeover.com?SQF_source=i...

We're here because Donald Trump is trying to rig the system. He doesn't play by a different set of rules — he doesn't believe in the rules.

If you're a Washingtonian and you have not yet attended a @freedcproject.bsky.social campaign orientation training, THIS IS THE TIME. They're offering an emergency intro training TOMORROW - register and spread the word: freedcproject.org/event-list/r...

#AlligatorAlcatraz merch on #Etsy. Account CLOSED. I'm so creeped out. Email them at [email protected]. And spread the word. Sometimes a merchant has to play both sides, but where does Etsy draw the line, paedophile merch? There's no neutrality when it comes to attacking your own country.

🎧📚 Big thanks to @indieaudiodeals.bsky.social for featuring Camelot & Vine! Your New Audiobook Deals Have Arrived! open.substack.com/pub/indieaud...

TODAY: Learn the tools of strategic non-cooperation to fight authoritarianism. With institutions failing to meet the challenge, it falls to us to defeat fascism. We’re training one million Americans on leading peaceful non-compliance and disruption tactics. Join us: www.mobilize.us/nokings/even...

If "raging liberals" could control the weather, we'd have a different president. Duh.

Oh my god, it's every bit as terrifying as LA!

Cowards. Show your face, goon.

This looks to me like impersonating federal officers, which (correct me if I'm wrong) is a felony.

Yesterday's big, beautiful, peaceful, joyful #NoKings protest in Pasadena, CA.

Old people remember: WWII, the McCarthy Era, Vietnam protests, ERA marches.... #nokings

when you want to join the fun but can't quite get down with the nomenclature (ht @davelevitan.bsky.social)

I just saw @padilla.senate.gov speaking on @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com visibly moved by the attacks on his own consituents. It felt real and raw. Way to take the attention focused on you and redirect it to those you serve. Damn impressive.

I encourage everyone to consider attending one of the many demonstrations planned for tomorrow across the country. Show up. Demand accountability. Peacefully protest. Find the rally closest to you: NoKings.org

In 2024, we warned of the darkness of a future Trump dictatorship. Jailing leaders of American cities, disappearing dissenters, and using military force to harm Americans. That future is on our doorstep. But we can stop it. Don't be afraid to exercise your power and tell Trump enough is enough.

TONIGHT: Join the #DisappearedInAmerica mass call to discuss how Trump is undermining the rule of law, how local law enforcement is being pressured to comply, and how people like you can help expose and resist these abuses of power.

Another fake lit agency is on the prowl, soliciting self-pubbed authors: GWM & Associates. Lots of vague platitudes and generic stock images, plus a Feb 2025 domain registration date that gives the lie to the array of book covers on the site, most pubbed long before February gwmandassociates.com

Here's how you can support Los Angeles immigrant communities and protesters during these ICE raids and police crackdowns.

Today the Camelot & Vine audiobook is 2 years old! It was nominated for the 2023 Society of Voice Arts and Sciences award for author narration, and might have even won if the competition hadn't been the likes of Bono! (whose audiobook is gorgeous, by the way). books2read.com/camelotandvi...

2 audiobooks released this wk avail at all the places! Supporting cast in @prhaudio.bsky.social The Correspondent by #VirginiaEvans lnkd.in/gHu_cQZ5 thanks to producer #kellygildea! Sole narrator of @tantoraudio.bsky.social's Hidden History of Detroit by #AmyElliottBragg many thanks to #hollismann.

Meta argues pirated books have no economic value, book banning crosses the pond, a heartwarming local bookstore story, and more of the best writing and books links from the past week! nathanbransford.com/blog/2025/04...

New review of #camelotandvine #audiobook! “...a wild and circuitous ride...exploring the cost, courage, burden and perhaps the reward of being truthful even in a land of legends and fantasy...a perfect lighthearted escape into wishful thinking...highly recommend!” books2read.com/camelotandvi...

If you need a pick-me-up this week I highly recommend canceling your Amazon Prime. Tastes great, refreshing, five stars!!

Tomorrow’s nationwide events are about saying Hands Off! to President Musk and Kennedy Center chairman Trump. But they’re also about convincing the Schumers of the world to be more like the Bookers of the world and actually stand up and fight for us: handsoff2025.com?SQF_SOURCE=i...
