Its funny how Black folks saying a certain kind of job shouldn’t exist was treated like a death threat, but AI bros saying all our jobs shouldn’t exist is treated as matter of fact.

Instead of ending the constitution and murdering people, we could have high speed trains and universal health care.

The first good news of the year for me!

Hey y’all: if you use Libby and you hate them allowing generative AI content and incorporating it in other ways you can go to your profile, scroll down to “help and support”, and take a survey to tell them that you hate it

You know what's good? Books.

Had one of those “I’m not going to bed until this is done moments” forgetting that my mind can sometimes be a 5 year old child who will refuse to go to bed AND not do the work.

done! (mostly, will probably do some minor edits and weathering when I get back to my laptop haha) #sinners

And like history, brown sugar doesn’t need bones to exist

Every recipe that calls for white sugar tastes better with brown sugar. Like history.

Merry Christmas!

Im watching Supernatural for the first and a demon saying Dick Cheney has a special spot in hell for him is wild to experience in 2025. How far we have come.

I don’t want the year to be over, i just want it to have a break. Im so tired, can’t we all just sit down for min?

I need to write something fun. Its been school essays for three months… I NEED something goofy.

I’ve only met L.P. Kindred twice but he is so kind and has done so much for the writing community. I hope you get your B.F.A! @lpkindred.bsky.social

Pro-tips from someone trying to become a librarian - Libby is your friend, you can request certain books and they will get it for you, using the library means you support authors AND your library all for ZERO dollars!

95% through Count of Monte Cristo! Boy does it escalate!

This is how you know Zohran is not fucking around with the 1%.

Collecting all the recent good news and holding on them like a rope in a bad storm.

Blushing roses for thursday

Things i love: friday dnd followed by an impromptu sleep deprived debate/rant/crash about the world. Also sleep

We’ll never get the multidimensional movies we deserve as long as hedge fund managers, venture capitalist and the military are funding Hollywood.

12:57 and reflecting on some new family drama that will end up in a book somewhere someday.

There is nothing nicer than having friends come over with snacks and we all jump in the pool under a full moon and talk about things we want to write, things we love to read.

Repost with a vampire that is not Dracula.

From an editor POV, you can kinda tell when someone is just following a trend cause the story is usually not that interesting (because the writer isn’t actually interested). When a writer is compelled the story gets weird and thats what pulls readers in.

Jokes aside, serious congrats to all the Hugo winners! It was a night of success. Every human in that room was proof that we don’t need AI to do what we’ve always been doing - making art and building community.

Had a great time at Worldcon meeting new and old faces! Thank you @emelkrishnan.bsky.social for letting me be your plus one! Glad we could trauma bond over our masthead being skipped again. I look forward to next year!

There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.

Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.

Im annoyed at seeing news stations show burning cars and fireworks when you can see how few people are doing anything to the officers. LA is not rioting. You can look at history to see what an LA riot looks like. This is a peaceful protest.

#HandsOff Santa Barbara! 📷: Society of Fearless Grandmothers

Sunday! for my Bsky writers - quick reminder: rejection DOES NOT MEAN you are a bad writer! especially for my marginalized folks, often misrepresented, misread, misunderstood - keep going! you got this❤️‍🔥

We need good chants, good music, and the DRUMS.

Santa Barbara showed up #Handsoff

Breaking america’s future like those “cheap eggs” he promised. #tarrifs

No, wait. I forgot they love that one Harry Potter fanfic that made them go all crazy for AI.

I find it so funny that our tech overlords are 75 years behind the times when it comes to Sci-Fi. They think they are so smart and yet they wouldn’t be able to name even one speculative novel that was published in the last decade. 🙄
