I could play it back to listen in on the whole conversation but I could also punch myself in the head with a sampling drill and I was not going to do that, either.

A reminder that this anti-trans panic is 100% bullshit and exactly none of our country’s problems are related to someone expressing their gender identity and everyone who isn’t a hate-filled weirdo knows it.

I am really enjoying Clues by Sam, which I learned about from Amal's posts. I am good at logic puzzles, but Amal is better.

Hi i should get money

Sometimes I wonder if our many years of jokes about writers hating writing and doing anything but writing, etc, have convinced people that the writing part is the hurdle and the goal is just to have a thing in hand. But I am here to tell you: the writing is the best part. The act is the thing.

Thank every single mother fucking one of you who went out to vote today and delivered us our first, loud, decisive victory against the most evil pack of sonsabitches our country has ever known. May this be the first of many. Y'all fucking rule.

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed. The way forward is together, not over the bodies of our own.

Hey Canadian writer fronds, speaking of grants, would anybody be down for something like an application critique group 2-3 times a year?? I feel like we could do a lot to lift each other up faced with this weird opaque black box 🫠

Oh hello, I am in this 🫣

You would be kicked out of any writer’s room in existence if you had the villains celebrating a Great Gatsby-themed party while taking away food benefits from millions of poor people.

I have signed back a letter of offer so it appears that I will be rejoining the ranks of the gainfully employed.
