If you’re mad about Louisiana, you can do something to help us in Louisiana. I literally grant write and fundraise alone so I can put women & girls through school, pay their rents, & provide them menstrual products. Don’t talk about us in Louisiana like we’re dead. tpfwoman2woman2026.funraise.org

Happy May Day, everyone. Here's to another year of draining the power out of capitalism and filling all the workers' cups equally. (Do not actually drink raw, untreated capitalism. Please boil and filter it first.)

An update from us!

Lotta talk lately about the F dominating the SFF well callin it now this is gonna be A BANGER YEAR FOR SCIFI 🔥 CODE AND CODEX by @deuceofgearsmusic.bsky.social 🔥 THE FIST OF MEMORY by @wtalabi.com 🔥 THE SUBTLE ART OF FOLDING SPACE by @johnchu.bsky.social (also THE LANGUAGE OF LIARS by meeeee)

Happy Oaks Day! I had so much fun pulling together this stack of Kentucky books by Kentucky authors! The Commonwealth is always home no matter how far we travel and no time of year feels quite so homecoming as Derby season! What Kentucky book should I read next?

just a reminder that in this day and age, you must protect your investments

This week I'm asking Why Haven't You Read The Memory Hunters by @itsamia.bsky.social a truly unique story that takes the idea of "magic mushrooms" to a whole new level! #booksky 📚💙 📚🪐

There’s still time to submit a public comment opposing this new rule. There’s not even 2000 comments yet. There’s a link here, easy to use. Took me just a few minutes, the time it took me to write this post. open.substack.com/pub/donmoyni...

hell of a series. wolves with such grit and heart. on to the spurs!

Black Louisianans have suffered more than their share in this country just since Hurricane Katrina There are still people who are displaced. Dead people who should be alive. People who never got their money. Who never recovered what they lost That injustice of that magnitude is tolerated is gross

It’s my birthday and I am once again doing my matching campaign of $340! Somebody already matched $340 for Crips for eSims but you can still donate $3.4, $34, $340, or more! :) Email screenshots to cripsforesimsforgaza[at]gmail[dot]com. chuffed.org/project/crip...

this wolves-nuggets game was 100% worth the day pass from sling

joker does not have to flop. c'mon now.

It’ll be gay marriage next. Then interracial marriage. Then segregated schools. They’re already working on that. Then whites only public spaces. They’ve already re-segregated the federal work force by firing as many Black people as they could.

Last words of James Broadnax, who was executed tonight in Texas

Buy me a coffee? Or help me keep an evil corporation from suing me after my 2nd job fell through 😭 Either way thank you to everyone who has contributed especially the Indie authors who I know are struggling as much as I am, y'all are the real MVPs 🥰🥰

We do not concede the south, the birthplace & continued lifeblood of the Black American experience, to people who hate us. We do not throw in the towel. Black people have every right to be southerners & very much are no matter who likes it.

i did not know the wolves were also down ayo and slo-mo. yikes.

scoreboard looks like a blood pressure reading

mike brown going to the bench. for what. it's garbage time. save your starters and your bench. hawks ain't catching up.

To those who might not understand, the Hawks in the neighborhood of Atlanta sports are the guy who is forever electrocuting himself hanging up Christmas lights, but never actually totally killing himself in the process

mike brown play garbage time for a full half challenge. the people demand tyler kolek, pacome dadiet, and ariel hukporti

at least we're spared a hawks-magic round 2.

Knicks starting out strong tonight, thank god

Think about how little Washington is paying attention to this & then imagine if any other nation did it. Israel just kidnapped nearly 200 people from around the world in international waters near Greece. And it did what many are calling "piracy" all to defend its other crime: its blockade of Gaza.

I love a boat historical (Master and Commander, Our Flag Means Death, the fucking Windflower) and @authoremcaro.com’s poly pirate romance (you heard me!) is salt-drenched and detailed and messy and glorious. Pirates being bad at delicate relationships makes for a good time for all of us.

This month’s #RomanceColumn has pirates and princesses and Faerie lords, oh my! Books reviewed: Rears and Vices by E.M. Caro, Stay for a Spell by Amy Coombe, and Thistlemarsh by Moorea Corrigan. (Gift link)

I've known Hailey for years and I've seen her deal with some incredibly tough challenges with grace and resilience. I've also seen her do so much to lift up other trans and queer people. It fucking sucks that her mom is sick. I'd be so grateful if you could show her some support <3

the knicks game and the wolves game are both on ESPN tomorrow, which sucks, because I don't have ESPN and i am definitely not hitting up a sports bar. guess i'll be watching the pbp while i work...

- It's 'just deserts' - It's 'piqued interest' - It's 'pore over' - It's like rain on your wedding day - It's a free ride and you've already paid - It's some good advice that you just didn't take - It's not irony, just bad luck and folly

We must understand that the Voting Rights Act was not merely about ensuring Black Americans rights, it was about democratizing America. This ruling is not just a decimation of Black rights and Black Americans’ ability to have representation, it is a fatal blow to multiracial democracy.

So, uh, cognitive and developmental psychology folks, are you as alarmed as I am over how chatbots and LLMs are destroying the ability to understand other people as real and separate, with their own thoughts and goals?

did mr. bobby caldwell ever tell us what we/he won't do for love or are we just supposed to be left hanging forever?

the greatest thing about having a car from 2010 is that it can't fucking spy on me. i have a cd player. i have an aux jack. i have a usb hookup. that's all i need. maybe we gotta go back to 2014 standards or something.

MSG, I never want to hear Mr. Brightside at a Knicks game ever again. Keep the Ruff Ryders anthem tho.

well well well @johnpicacio.bsky.social Spurs are taking care of business too!

Violent raids & arrests in the West Bank in the last 6 hours (since dawn) - 20 so far #Palestine

the KNICKS, amen

Gonna be missing a good chunk of the Knicks game tonight, which may be a blessing in disguise for my blood pressure.

Today! Today is Release Day for my new book, the sapphic time travel fantasy coming of age novella, The Mystery of the Bitten Peach! Get it wherever books are sold... or right from Neon Hemlock: www.neonhemlock.com/...

literally branding us and this country like we're products. fucking disgusting.

these turnovers are killer. ugh.

mike conley is trying but he just does not have the speed or strength. really missing ant and donte on these matchups

pretty sure i didn't breathe that entire possession

julius channeling donte to open the game. julius randle, have yourself an amazing 48 minutes please

if there's a team i can't stand in this league, it's the magic. hate that they're winning
