One thing I've always loved about Star Trek is that even when characters dislike each other on a superficial level, they always manage to work together in a crisis and save the day. Because at the end of the day family is complicated but you're all in this together. #StarfleetAcademy

Happy Valentines! I think I will start posting my art here. 💕 #art, #artistsoninstagram, #artwork, #creativeart, #artdaily, #fineart, #visualart, #artoftheday, #birdart, #painting, #birdpainting

I generally dislike villain characters, especially the campy ones who chew up scenes. (Sexually harassing the female captain is also a no-go for me.) So... thinking about 50% of this Starfleet Academy episode just ain't for me.

I love when people think authors can't possibly have day jobs. Like, how do you think most authors LIVE?

Mamdani apparently just pulled the kid out of the Omelas hole. Turns out we could've done it anytime

The literally instant arrival of a bunch of finches and chickadees upon refilling the bird feeder is somehow very validating.

That's it; I'm calling it: winter's over! Just turned my a/c on.

I have a trunked YA fantasy, the first book I queried. That book went through a mentorship and had lots of agent interest but ultimately no offers 😓 Maybe one day he'll return, but for now I'm hanging out in the adult SFF space!

Okay, I got my thoughts out about Starfleet Academy this week. I'm continually impressed. A lot of the issues touched upon here are especially evocative to my Oklahoman heart. 🖖🏻 Now we just need to get a Native into Starfleet Academy! medium.com/@ZaneBrumley...

"Actually, working out gives me energy! 😊" You are an unholy demon who feeds off the suffering of others

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

Oh, I love this.

Is it so hard to say "person" instead of "woman" when talking about things traditionally labeled as "women's health"? 😓 I feel so many trans and enby people suffer lack of good healthcare because of this.

Apparently our fake excuse for a government is saying even American citizens are gonna have to provide proof of citizenship. I don’t have a CLUE where my birth certificate is. What’re they gonna do, send me to France?? Please?

One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

Perhaps the surest sign of AI not being super intelligent is the amount of tailored scams targeting the finances of authors, which is as rewarding as trying to mug a seagull.
