In case you missed it yesterday...

Sharing a preview of my work for @dragonageannual.art! PRE-ORDER YOUR CALENDAR AND SWEET MERCH NOW! 2026 Contributor Preview

Here’s a line from one of my pieces in the next #DragonAgeAnnual! Somebody give a certain mabari-minded character a BONE, amirite? 🦴 shop.dragonageannual.art (There’s just under a week left to pre-order a physical copy of the calendar and many many goodies!)

noooooooo

‘If you wish me to accompany you I will,’ Wangji said, and Wei Ying kissed him very hard before finally, reluctantly leading him away. #ficwip #wordgamewednesday #wangxian

🤔 I need some Dragon Age lore nerds to help me out here. The encounter "The Betrayal of Felassan" in the crossroads, the revenant says "his back turned". Where is this from? I could have sworn it was from The Masked Empire, but I just searched the entire ebook and it is not in there. 🤨 [1/2]

A billion dollars in the socio-economic equivalent of a loose nuke, and we should work with the same intensity and ruthlessness to prevent the former as we do the latter.

happy bi day to me, to you, to trans bisexuals, to bisexuals who mostly prefer women, to bisexuals who mostly prefer men, to bisexuals who do gender fuckery together or alone or with many, to ace bisexuals, to aro bisexuals, to all bisexuals!!! i love you, we are grand and beautiful

While I'm complaining about businesses: please have a website (not a facebook/IG/whatsapp group chat/wtftever) listing your services and prices. No, I will not 'contact you for a quote' or sign up for your mailing list. Just tell me if you do the thing I need, how much it costs, and where you are.

Look, clothing brands, no matter how cute I think your skirt/trousers/dress is, I'm not buying it if there are no pockets. See also rain jackets without hoods.

Gonna go even further: don't refer to it as "consuming media" when doing this. You aren't a consumer - it's not a product. You read books. You look at art. You watch movies and/or videos. Be careful about word choice. Reject "consume" and REJECT "CONTENT." IT IS ART. YOU ARE ENGAGING WITH ART.

Brain chemistry changed for sure.

Properly labelled / tagged fiction is consensual by default. You only see it, consume it, interact with it, if you consent to. Censoring it is ridiculous puritanism.

“We’re going to keep showing up until they stop abducting our neighbours.”

The most impactful way to complain about Kimmel. Fellow Portlanders: We do have a Sinclair station, and it's katu.com (ABC). (Reposting for alt-text).

After his morning ritual — a calm breakfast watching the sun rise over the lotus lake, a period of quiet meditation to the sound of crickets and lapping water — Wangji met Wei Ying at the training ground. #wangxian #ficwip #wordgamewednesdsay

idk, cottagecore cosmic horror?

So this piece is AMAZING, and since I'm the lucky one writing for it, here's a little taste of the fic that goes with it. #dragonageannual

Sometimes, all you need is some #WangXian love. 🥹💙❤️ #TheUntamed/ #CQL #XiaoZhan肖战 #WangYibo王一博 #cdrama

“This atmospheric, otherworldly fantasy by MacGregor (The Evolving Truth of Ever-Stronger Will) deploys Scottish mythology to touch on themes of grief and trauma […] An empathic and accessible tale of belonging.” Thank you, @publisherswkly.bsky.social, for this gorgeous review!

I walked all the way into town (still sick, so it wiped me out) because I need to pick up an Rx, but the pharmacy is closed for lunch. 😭 Consoling myself with hot chocolate at the beach while I wait for it.

Take some advice from someone who has seen this play many, many times before: this is the same old predatory publishing model, not some innovative step forward. “We deduct our expenses before—“ No, that’s where you can stop reading, everything else is now irrelevant.

oh man it was hard to choose, I might have to do it again later, but have some soppy #wangxian married-after-CR-summer-school AU #ficwip #wipweds #wordgamewednesday

In case anyone else was going to do this when they had time.

Some people I really thought better of.

I think it's underappreciated that this site goes "we know you all came up with your own solution to things we don't have, and now that we have an official version we're working with your solution to combine the two"

FYI, fellow Washingtonians! The Department of Health has issued a standing order to let people get Covid vaccines without a doctor's prescription! The order itself functions as a prescription, and if a pharmacy denies you a booster, there's a complaint line to report it! doh.wa.gov/sites/defaul...

People who are too afraid of cities to get to know them always seem surprised when they show up. That LA shows up is one of the things I love so much about it.

Every single EU citizen should know about this. It should be plastered all around TV, newspapers, radio, social media... EVERYWHERE. If this passes, it's one of the biggest human rights violations in DECADES. fightchatcontrol.eu #ChatControl #StopChatControl #surveillance #privacy #humanrights

ATTENTION BRITAIN! 🇬🇧 The UK now has a petition to STOP CENSORSHIP by MasterCard and VISA of legal products! This joins the Australian and Canadian petitions that are gaining momentum. Come on, let's get these signed! And spread the word! The UK petition: petition.parliament.uk/signatures/1...

Theres.... a new artist meme going around where you describe your style in detail with 3 samples and babes if that doesn't sound like training data i dont know what is

I really don’t have time to take on any more projects but will absolutely read this if the rest of you do it!

Also check by editor if you've been published in anthologies where yours might not be the top name on the list. The actual copyright status is apparently a bit murky but do it anyway.

#WIPWednesday glimpse of a thing I wrote for this year's @dragonageannual.art!

Off to yet another conference and we’re all a little fussy about it, honestly. I’ve been sick now for a week and a half.

Just wrote a little explanation of the meme(s) I posted over from Tumblr, and it made me reflect on how great alt text is! I love it when I see pictures that explain who's in them, or what a meme means. Otherwise I'm frequently totally lost. Much appreciate everyone who takes the time to add alt! 💖
