Hey, new Bluesky friends! If you're following for my hot political takes, I'm also a bestselling fantasy author with a subversive streak that manifests in my work. And if you followed for book stuff, be forewarned that you're gonna get the politics, too!

Lol! A good reminder that there are lots of scammers out there. Unless it's a service you've contracted of your own initiative, money flows TO the writer. Anyone offering you a great opportunity FOR A FEE should be regarded with serious side-eye.

The Trump administration is warehousing pregnant child rape victims in a Texas facility, away from adequate medical care, in a state with one of the highest maternal mortality rates in the US, so that these child rape victims won’t be able to get abortions.

WIP Wednesday! What are you working on artists, writers, etc? I've decided midway through painting Joscelin from
@jacquelinecarey.bsky.social
's "Cassiel's Servant" that I'll redo the bottom half of the hero figure of this cover. Setting myself back a few hours, but it'll be worth it! 🥲 Yes indeed.

Oh, puh-leeze. It has nothing to do with falling "out of love with liberalism," and everything to do with Rowling's transphobia. Well, and the antisemitic stereotypes. And the classism.

You have to go through Congress for anything resembling this type of war. Round up Massie and Paul types and have him removed. The people in this administration are on actual drugs and have insatiable bloodlust and bespoke mental illnesses. He has to go, and everybody with him.

If a news story makes you angry at a group of people with whom you have no direct experience, you're probably being manipulated. Also, you might be dumber and meaner than you knew. 😑

British Quakers are refusing room bookings from terfs as policy. If you were waiting for an org to stand up for LGBTQIA+ rights, and unflinchingly withstand bullying and lawfare, here you go, friends. Good luck to the raging bigots, they'll get nowhere with threats.

I keep saying this but no one is connecting the dots. The war is to satisfy legal preconditions for mass removal *domestically* of Latinos (i.e., suddenly a lot of people are going to be “Venezuelan” for purposes of removal). This is 100% Stephen Miller…oil claim is to make grandpa go along

Trump's Truth Social posts should be widely disseminated. The average American voter has NO idea how deranged and utterly incoherent he is on that platform. Not sure what the best mechanism is to accomplish that.

Democratic politicians need to stop accepting Trump’s white nationalist premise that immigration is bad and proudly and loudly make a positive case for why America’s identity and history as a nation of immigrants is so important.

It's worth noting that proposals do allow members to invest in diversified index funds, so it's not like they'd be deprived of opportunity to benefit from the S&P 500 etc. 🙄

I lack the energy to decry the extent to which America is becoming a surveillance state with its own secret police, but I would love to slap the word "freedom" out of the mouth of anyone who voted for this.

I watched a lot of B-grade 1980s post-apocalyptic films in my youth, and based on the level of violent sadism unleashed in this nation, I'd say we're a generation away from Rutger Hauer slamming a dog skull on stake.

In the wake of Zohran winning Jonathan Greenblatt and the ADL have opened a tipline to report Antisemitism. Everyone should call to report Nick Fuentes, Elon Musk, Tucker Carlson, Candace Owens and every other right wing group the adl refused to condemn with the same intensity they save for leftists
