The goat carries a castle on its back. From a distance, it looks like a model, the size of an apple box; if you get close, the castle suddenly towers over you. Many assume a mage misheard a request for a moat. Regardless, the castle has withstood all attacks for centuries. The goat wanderers on.

Watch Duty now has nationwide coverage, incidentally. A membership is pretty cheap, lets you see firefighting aircraft, and supports one of the very best public safety orgs and its app that the US has.

Do you need a new badge? Are you perchance going to Anthrocon? I'VE GOT BADGE SLOTS OPEN NOW!!! I won't have a table at AC so this is the ONLY way to get a real media badge from me! (if you're not going to AC, you can still get a badge & have it mailed to you!) vgen.co/LizardbethAr...

Heads up. He is/was in a lot of starter packs, too, so check yours if you've made one so you're no longer recommending a rapist.

Darlings! My new poem, "When Death Comes, Look to The Tower," is out at @smallwondersmag.com!! It's for anyone who needs a reminder of their own strength -- that you have all the power within yourself, that you tell your own story. smallwondersmag.com/piece/when-d...

Okay, emergency bill shit dealt with, power's back on, I'm just still, at two weeks, desperatley hoping to get enough together for a full grocery run. Yeah, we're just talking a hundred bucks or so, but it's been that much of an uphill fight trying to get back to here, esp. with my leg still fucked.

This is glorious and bizarre.

Working with THE Katherine “K. A.” Applegate is everything I wanted when was thirteen and trying to get Animorphs fans to join my Everworld fan page on Yahoo Groups. Working with her on Wombat Waiting is a childhood dream come true! people.com/mara-wilson-...

Honestly, if we're mutuals and you sell A Thing™, I will try and buy that thing.

Gemini: Just remember. Everything has a silver lining. Like that guy who saw the murder you committed. Now you get to murder him, too.

@sario.dev from today.

I had the absolute pleasure of spending an evening among hundreds of nesting roseate spoonbills. Here, three baby spoonbills (AKA teaspoons) are impatiently waiting in their nest at golden hour for their mother to return. #Birds #Photography

Here's the cover illustration of Astarion by @tkingfisher.com , a Baldur's Gate 3 novel, that I had the immense pleasure of painting for Penguin Random House and Wizards of the Coast! Cheers, darling! 🥂

Been a while since I did a silly stream game, but today I learned that hairless bats exist so enjoy these monsters.

Good Morning, World.

any time some asshole big game hunting millionaire gets smushed into paste it's like a little practice run for When It Happens. no need to crack open the champagne bottles but maybe open one of those little cans of bubbly to put yourself in the right mindset

I'm still confused how they thought showcasing a grandma forced to do DoorDash to pay for cancer treatments was supposed to make DoorDash look good.

can you help Sonia today? even a repost helps.

@realfollowers.bsky.social Let's see, shall we?

A lot of people are quick to say they *can't* give up Amazon. Okay, don't. Just don't make it your default. That thing you threw in your basket that you can get elsewhere? Get it elsewhere. If everyone still buying from Amazon reduced their spending by 20%, Bezos would be screaming bloody murder

WTF Patreon, why are you randomly sending emails about posts I don't have access to? I don't need blurred out pictures in my inbox.
