Okay, fellow tie-in novel writers, I could use your assistance. I need an agent to reach out to someone for me, in hopes of acquiring a particular work-for-hire gig. For reasons I'm not getting into here, my current agency is not interested in pursuing tie-in projects.

How is it fucking March already? How is it only fucking March yet?

I'm going to need more than a Senegalese name and a vague "there are indicators" quote from a grossly compromised FBI to believe the shooting on 6th Street last night was terrorism.

Also, let's not pretend those poor Iranian schoolgirls were the first children Trump murdered to hide his rapes, either.

I see he wages war the same way he lives the rest of his life: Targeting schoolgirls.

I wish I had the funds to pay an artist to help me create graphic novel versions of THE GOBLIN CORPS and THE IRON DEVILS. I feel like those two novels, in particular, would work really well in that format. (Anyone who suggests I use AI art to do it gets blocked. Seriously.)

This is why I keep--and *will* keep--banging the trans rights drum. This is why a candidate who calls them a distraction or claims there are "legitimate questions" is unacceptable. WE STILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO SUPPORT GOOD CANDIDATES BEFORE THE NEXT ELECTION. (Assuming there is one.)

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

Currently suffering, for my sins, in the Hell of the Slowly Developing and Excessively Lengthy Outline.

FYI, Academia.edu has changed its terms of service to give an irrevocable worldwide license for anything uploaded to its site to be used for generative AI. I do not consent to this and have pulled all my papers.

You need to open your eyes to this. If your first instinct is to deny that what she says is accurate, you need to really sit with yourself, because this _is_ happening. And we cannot let it.

"What is VIDEODROME on mescaline, but with 800% more fart-huffing?" Alex.

Apparently Ammon freaking Bundy wrote a ten-page essay in support of immigrants called "A Christian and Constitutional Case for Protecting Those Who Come to America," and finds the behavior of ICE and the regime morally sickening, and I have no idea whatsoever what this fucking world is anymore. 😮

I don't know why it took me this long to realize, but the reason ICE is tear-gassing schools is because their bosses can only get it up when they see little girls crying.

For a guy whose bio says he's focused on "risk mitigation," you ain't showing a lot of acumen in that regard here, chief.

I finally cracked a major impasse on a D&D setting idea I've been noodling for *two decades*, and it's timely without being too on-the-nose or an obvious metaphor. So of course, this happens during a time in the RPG industry when there's not a company out there looking to publish a new setting. 😝

I wish my "werewolf vs. human traffickers" script--which includes a small team of ICE agents among the villains, though they aren't the *main* villains--would stop getting consistently more topical than it was when I wrote it.

The demotion of Bovino changes nothing. Body cams and training will change nothing. Don't fall for it, and don't think your constituents will let you off the hook. NO FUNDING FOR ICE. Period. @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

Bovino's demotion is a good gesture. But that's all it is, and it worries me. I worry that some of the less informed citizenry will take this as reason to relax their efforts. I worry that some less committed Blue politicians will take this as sufficient change that they can vote to fund ICE.

If the nurses' union really wants to make the largest possible impact in protest of the current fuckery, instead of striking they should go into the computer systems in all the hospitals and erase all the billing info and balances owed.

NGL, it feels like a terrible time to be launching a crowdfunder but it's been in the planning for more than two years and so... here we are. Please consider signing up to be notified when we launch or sharing this info with possibly interested parties! ❤️🙏 www.kickstarter.com/projects/gre...

I want to state for the record that I don’t give a SHIT if someone is undocumented and have no interest in deporting ANYONE! I would rather deal with the criminals under our laws, than to spend millions trying to deport people. Deportation is expensive and cruel. And quite frankly, stupid.

i was talking with someone in the twin cities about how it’s not even accurate to call them protesters. they’re literally just people protecting their city from TERRORISTS.

ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

AAAAAA!! I'm enough of a Baldur's Gate 3 mark that I ABSOLUTELY NEED THIS. youtooz.com/products/sho...

Hey, I know a lot of you use Discord. You need to get on this survey and make it damn clear to them that this would be the absolute wrong direction. The last thing we need is the slop-spewing environment-chewing plagiarism bots invading there, too. discord.sjc1.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_...?

I know I have several literary agents (in this case, I'm speaking of novels, not scripts) among my contacts. If any of you would be willing to talk to me about a particular endeavor that, for reasons, I can't pursue through my usual agent, I would deeply appreciate you shooting me a direct message.

On a lighter topic, because God do we need a lighter topic... I have no idea if or when there will ever be a live-action Dragonlance adaptation, but it really needs to happen before Jamie Campbell Bower gets too old to believably play Raistlin.

Am I correct in thinking that, while Bluesky lets you limit who can react to your posts, there's no way to limit who can *see* them?

Hilton is removing the location that refused to host ICE agents. They're losing their franchise. Here are some options to make your displeasure known: 1 (888) 446-6677 [email protected] (That's their contact for media and PR-related requests. I couldn't find a more appropriate e-mail.)

So, that credit you're giving to Hilton? Don't. The decision not to accept ICE agents' reservations was a local one, not a company one. And corporate has already forced the location to walk it back.

Terms like "plot holes," "loose threads," and "queerbaiting" used to actually have definitions.

All right. I know a lot of us balk at making these phone calls, especially when we have GOP reps, but it's time. You're almost certainly going to get a voicemail, so you shouldn't even have to speak to anyone. You can find phone numbers for all your reps here: www.commoncause.org/find-your-re...

We are, as I type this, bombing a sovereign nation without provocation, in an operation that is illegal by our own laws, let alone international ones. And still nobody is stopping him.

AAAAUUGH WRONG WRONG WRONG NOT IN 1987 GODDAMMIT THE SORCERER AS ITS OWN "INNATE MAGIC" CLASS SEPARATE FROM THE WIZARD WASN'T CREATED UNTIL D&D 3RD EDITION IN 2000!!!! *pant, pant, pant* Okay. I'm okay. Back to catching up on this last season of Stranger Things. 😝

I object, on moral grounds, to the *parents* of the main characters in the shows I watch being younger than I am. 😝

Get. Off. X already.

I'm a bad Jew. I almost forgot to order the traditional Christmas Eve Chinese food. 😮

It is Christmas Eve. The AC is on. I have a mosquito bite. 😑

If a movie/game/tv show/album/TTRPG/whatever deals with mature and upsetting themes, then it doesn't mean it should be demonized for existing. A mature piece of media's existence does not diminish the existence of media without upsetting themes.

Okay, that clip of the thing that's going around because certain people didn't want it shown? Here's a copy. Download it. Save it somewhere. Make it available where you can. Don't just count on mine, or anyone's, to stay up. drive.google.com/file/d/1JXv7...

This is the 60 Minutes segment that the Trump administration censored this last weekend from American eyes. Thank Canada for letting the news out. If you have not seen it, see it! Spread it! Shove it in their faces. #FuckICE #ViveLaRésistance #Resist www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...

Step back to the early days of my novels with the tales of Corvis Rebaine. The Terror of the East. A man who left his ambitions and his violence and his sins behind him, until someone worse forced him to drag it all back out into the light. THE CONQUEROR'S SHADOW. THE WARLORD'S LEGACY.

Also? Every single time--EVERY TIME--an advisor or pundit or commentator or politician says "Democrats should abandon [X], it's not a winning issue," your very first job as a voter is to look into how that person's interests are served by drawing attention away from [X].

Stop saying, "I know Newsom is transphobic and brutal to the homeless, but surely you'd still vote for him over a MAGAt!" and instead start using the literal *years* we have available to us to work on elevating candidates who don't support evil positions.

A Conversation in Two Parts. (part one) Hey, Ari! Yes, Ari? You know how you have literally almost a hundred D&D characters you want to play but will never get to? Uh, yeah... Well, here's another! Oh. Good. Is he at least a little more likely to be used?

You are either on Team Release Everything (except for victim info), or you are a pedo protector. And everyone satisfied with this obvious cover up is on Team Pedo Protector. There is no middle ground. That is who you are.
