irony dead yet again

IT'S LIKE THEY DIDN'T EVEN TRY.

Bravest motherfuckers you've ever seen. They just saw a neighbor get murdered and still out there. Maybe let's see some local officials with the power to arrest show as much backbone as these voters PAYING YOUR FUCKING SALARY

AI is so very helpful ...

all i can do is write my silly little stories and repost images of cats. that's all i have in me. if that's all you have in you, that's okay.

My morsels, I know you desire to unfurl your wings and gather a glorious hoard. I too desire this. But beware. Knights still lurk, as surely as dragons do, and they will seek to slay you. Are you prepared to face them?

“If I were a dragon, I would EAT YOU!” tantrumed the child. “You’re not. You’re a gnome. Now eat your porridge,” answered her mom.

In fact the person responsible for this deepfake porn that is harming women and girls isn’t just not trans but is hardcore “gender-critical”. A friend and supporter of every TERF. Transphobes always harm all women and girls.

From Twelfth Night, if memory serves.

"Hard times are coming, when we'll be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now, can see through our fear-stricken society and its obsessive technologies to other ways of being, and even imagine real grounds for hope...realists of a larger reality." Ursula K. Le Guin

As the #symphony played, Graven the Amazing placed his assistant into a large box. He produced a chainsaw and sawed the box in half. The crowd at the Woodworking Conference booed. "That's not how you make a cabinet! That's the opposite of what we like!" #vss365

Maybe--MAYBE--we should let humans do the human things like marriage vows? I know it's a crazy thought.

This has been every point in my life, but the desire certainly is increasing in intensity.

“What were you doing in this gap in your resume?” I was waiting for the server to put enough Parmesan on my pasta.

Things I want more than Greenland as an American: •Affordable Housing •Universal Healthcare •Ability to travel and explore •Chance to pursue passions not money •To make a difference in other people’s lives So I want #StarTrek The future Gene Roddenberry envisioned

“What were you doing in this gap in your resume?” That was when I carried you 🦶

So odd that kids these days don’t play outside anymore

It is perfectly acceptable to go after quick small wins while trying to figure out larger problems. You know what happens to low hanging fruit if you don't pick it? It rots.

Name an 80s song. Can I name one that's deliciously 80's-style? Shut Up and Dance With Me. But if you want a real 80's one, let's go with Eye of the Tiger.

You've probably seen this a lot lately if you follow me. But TODAY... the campaign is live. I'd love it if you'd click over and check it out. And I'd love it if you'd back the book, too! Yes, this is me, under my old name. Cause I still write under it... for now.

Yup, its just nice to walk into a world and know that Trans people just *exist* and no one cares because its *normal*

I've shared this in my newsletter... and now here! There are SO MANY good ways to support indie writers. Kickstarter is one of them.

In a world of grumps, be a @seanferrick.bsky.social . He shows such care, such love, and yet finds real joy.

Reminder to every creative person making anything. Having hope and creating in the face of horror is rebellion too. It's also one of the bravest things we can ever do. Please remember that. Oh... and that all art is innately political.

Same. I don't support those who use AI in their, um, art. So, thanks for using it and saving me money, I guess.

literally just one or two more bundle sales and the Full Bloom audiobook will have paid itself off! This is amazing. I am proud that hiring union talent at union rates pays for itself with quality results and love from the fans. itch.io/s/177864/mag...

Hey! I am working on curating a starter pack for trans and nonbinary authors -- please either comment here or DM me if you want to be added! Also, share so I can get the word out. #writingcommunity

YES It's not, "I'll be a writer someday." If you write, you're a writer.

Dragons were real. They are real, still lurking in society, hidden as humans. But many have become so invested in their roles they have forgotten their true selves. This book is a guide for them, for you, that you may reclaim your draconic nature. To be the dragon you are. We are LIVE!

It's important to encourage and support each other through the horrors. It's also important to rest from the horrors. So you know what? Something innocuous. Board games are awesome. Our family gave each other six board games for Christmas. We have yet to play them all. Time to fix that.

Willing to withhold judgement on this film but I just had an image of the older Robin Hood played by Hugh "Wolverine" Jackman having technicolor flashbacks to Hugh "Showtunes!" Jackman and now it's all I can think about.

This was the first of his I saw, in the theater. The lush animation and incredibly nonwestern story grabbed my imagination so, so much.

This, and: if you choose to keep reading a book you hate, that's your prerogative, but the author didn't do that to you. The author would probably tell you to put it down too.

When Miriam is captured to be sacrificed to the Shadow across the Sun, she thinks her life is over. But when the Archangel Michael choses a new Paladin, Miriam finds herself pulled along on a quest to save the world from encroaching darkness. www.patreon.com/collection/1...

Cheese cannot think, alas, but it can tempt more effectively than any siren.

"GenAI is the futu--

I don't know that the cat would be helpful if I was having a cardiac event, but I'd certainly die happy.

One guy tried, unsuccessfully, to blow up a plane with a bomb in his sneakers, and everybody had to take off their shoes at the airport for the next 20 years. Chatbots have a collective body count equal to Richard "The Night Stalker" Ramirez, and they're trying to put them in schools.

If Cruella Deville was a car salesman, do you think she'd have made dalmation upholstery?

my 75yo mother told me last night that she’s planning to delete Instagram and Facebook because she’s sick of not being able to tell what’s AI and what’s not, and I genuinely don’t think tech companies have reckoned with this kind of move as an actual possibility

The child glowered at mom. “Dragons don’t take baths!” “Maybe you’re not actually a dragon, then. Get in the bath.” Later, mom pulled dad aside. “She’s remembering. We’re going to have to tell her eventually. Before she learns how to breathe fire.”

"Genital inspection provisions" should scare the shit out of EVERYONE.
