"In Chicago, of 92 people arrested for assaulting or impeding officers last fall, 74 cases have resulted in no charges; in 13 cases, charges were filed and dismissed; and five charged cases were still pending *** As of the end of January, there have been no convictions."

This 53 year old man who lived in my neighborhood w/no criminal record & who had been in the US for 30 years, was detained and thrown into a cold cell for days, caught pneumonia and COVID there and deported. He finally died. I am so angry. www.kptv.com/2026/02/21/n...

#TimeTravelAuthors D21 Excerpt. Arthur and Pari talk through how the US Border Patrol (villains) might next try to dissuade the Diplomat from the Future. Pari thinks they may try sexual entrapment. She opens a conversation about it. This two part story on Sexual Ethics has spy action and kissing.

An excerpt from the TED Talk by the Diplomat from the Future. #fiction #FanFiction #Writers #Bahai

The Diplomat from the Future has finally given his promised TED Talk, in Vancouver BC. It's about the future, climate change, and that he is a beggar because the future is not doing so good and has sent him to beg for mercy. Chapter 23 of my fic on AO3. archiveofourown.org/works/650041...

Portland Public Schools is under a federal civil rights investigation for moving forward on a voter-approved effort to better support the district’s historically marginalized Black students.

#TimeTravelAuthors D19, honesty. Lately, because Canada, the Diplomat and his aides have decided that their integrity gets in the way. He decides to ask Alexis, the chief Russian spy, to make some introductions in the underworld. It worked in London, it should also work in Vancouver and Seattle?

Dear writers and journalists. Please. You never, ever need to use the phrase "across the pond" when referring to Great Britain. We beg you, resist.

Roses are redde Noble are the manatees For a bettir future Teach artes and humanityes

It was a great night for a parade!

#TimeTravelAuthors D17 To be perfectly frank, I don't believe in the Butterfly Effect, I think it's silly. The Diplomat from the Future has travelled back in time a hundred years to do everything and anything he can to make people think harder, smarter, avoid being stupid and slowing climate change.

#TimeTravelAuthors D11 snippet. Arthur (Traveller/Diplomat) courting Pari (Widow/Exceptional) "He brings her small gifts that she can easily acccept: a flowering hyacinth, a four-piece box of unusual chocolates, a new hot pad after he accidentally burned one, a pretty lantern to put out at Naw-Ruz."

Had a terrific tourist visit to Seattle: Amtrak from PDX, hotel in Pioneer Square, water taxi to West Seattle, Art Museum, Seattle Symphony, Chihuly, nature boardwalk on the waterfront, Miners Sourdough, Arundel Books, Pike Place Market apple-peach cider, sunshine for walking, National Nordic Museum

What’s so weird about men in power is how when they face scandal and should step down the world acts like no one else can do their jobs. Bottstein, Wasserman, these aren’t irreplaceable men! Stop with this delusion.

I recently visited Maria in the Tacoma detention center. She is a loving mom, pays her taxes, and has no criminal history -- not even a parking ticket. She deserves to come home to her two children and her husband, who is recovering from surgery. I will not stop fighting until she is home.

#TimeTravelAuthors D9 Political? Damn right I do. The Diplomat from the Future lives in Canada, is friends with PM and has visited the Oval Office as a guest of the PM. There is a run-in with Border Patrol in an airport. And some spy action in Bellingham specifically. That was so much fun to write!

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 3. Series? Yes! Once I got started on this fan fiction journey, nearly 95% original characters, there was so much to do. The series is "The Future has yet to be Written" and recently organized in chronological order for time travel that is. archiveofourown.org/series/4598191

#TimeTravelAuthors Day 1, deeply impressed by The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley I dipped a toe into fan fiction in her universe. 100 chapters later coming to the end of my 2nd novel. My MC is Arthur John Gore who has been sent by the future 100 years into the past to try to save the planet.

@dansinker.com Saw a busy group packaging on 1st Street in Seattle.

#TimeTravelAuthors 2/13 Love The Diplomat from the Future is deeply in love with his wife, a Persian woman, who is a retired executive. They live in Vancouver BC. She recently did a little spy work on his behalf. He is shopping for diamonds. Also, he loves helicopters

Wait. What? I'm a time travel author.

From #AHAPerspectives in 2018: Zita Cristina Nunes described how Dorothy Porter successfully built @howard.edu's Moorland-Spingarn Research Center, one of the world’s leading repositories for Black history and culture, and the legacy of her work for contemporary scholars. 🗃️

I wrote a Romance. It's a time travel fan fiction post canon romance. It has an older man and woman, seniors, being romantic. Also adventures. I had the best time doing it and you can read 22 chapters of it and it's romantic as hell. So. There. archiveofourown.org/works/65004130

part of me still can't believe the East Wing was completely destroyed and there have been no negative consequences or reports on whether items inside were properly archived or not

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition. Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

not saying he's necessarily in the organization, but this skull face mask was popular among members of the Proud Boys a few years ago

Gen A.I. barons want us talkinge alone on our phones to a demon thei created, and not goinge places and being wyth each othir yn art and joy and communitye. Thei want cinemas to shut downe and broadwaye to go darke. Thei want wryteres to stop writinge. Thei want to build hell and have us pay for it.

Wolf had found the evening paper in Old Fox's desk. He took it to his room & slowly read the names aloud, into the silence. Luis Gustavo Núñez Cáceres, Geraldo Lunas Campos, Victor Manuel Díaz, Heber Sánchez Domínguez, Renee Nicole Good, Parady La, Alex Jeffrey Pretti, Luis Beltran Yanez-Cruz.

I spent the evening outside the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis, where the feds have been releasing people they detained — often for no discernible reason — into the freezing cold... wearing whatever little clothing they had on at the time they were taken.

Portland shows up to protest ICE.

Do people know that there are almost 1 million Muslims in NYC? Where are the stories about how Muslims are feeling about the first Muslim Mayor in NYC?

Happy Christmas, Winter Solstice, and Shab-e-Yalda! I wrote a little Winterfest story with all three seasonal celebrations. archiveofourown.org/works/75303056

Stunned and honored to have received the 10th Annual Chicago Review of Books Award for Fiction. The CHIRBys are a special event, a truly Chicago moment.Thank you @chicagorevbooks.bsky.social and all the readers, writers, judges, supporters, and members of this extraordinary community.

one thing that doesn’t get enough coverage or comment with regards to this administration is it how much it hates the actually existing united states

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

I'll be on a local radio show at 4pm today with @joanesposito.bsky.social and @wcpt.bsky.social to talk about my arrest, my church's anti-ICE nativity, and why it's important for Christians in particular to fight Islamophobia. Give a listen on tunein or on wcpt820.com

My wife @annapiela.bsky.social and I wrote a new book that comes out in January - Confronting Islamophobia in the Church. Invite us to your church, book group, or podcast, please! If you could help us spread the word and even preorder the book, we'd be grateful. www.judsonpress.com/Products/J32...

Recommend Danger Man on A03! I had to go to YouTube to find the show.

As always, wise words and excellent examples.

While I've got your attention, people seem to want to hear me talk about my arrest, and interviews are cool, but you can feel free to come to @lakestreetchurch.bsky.social at 10:30AM Central to hear a HOPE-FILLED sermon about yesterday's events. Livestreamed here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1Qi...

My friend.

The special float drop will coincide with the Siletz tribe’s restoration powwow.
