I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

Awful and dangerous to hear the Mayor echo the transphobic bigotry coming from the Trump administration. It's completely at odds with the values of our city and another reason why his single, disgraced term in office cannot end soon enough.

I don’t think this post is wrong, but it still gives me cognitive dissonance since every media exec buying content relies so heavily on the creator’s level of social media engagement (or says they do).

JUST IN: Harvard won summary judgment against the Trump administration with the court finding that the admin violated Harvard's 1st amend. rights. The court has vacated the funding freeze orders and termination letters and issued a permanent injunction. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

i met anubis in the realm of the underworld, big strong guy by the way, had a dog’s head, i’m not so sure about that. and he said to me, mr president, you’ve got the heaviest soul we’ve ever weighed down here. can you believe it? they’ve never seen a soul that heavy in all of duat

They’re gonna turn people over to ICE. Just don’t use their trash at all. It’s bad for your brain and they’re an evil company.

I spent the 2010's arguing with my white colleagues that we were facing a crisis in newsroom diversity. The smart, dedicated, talented cis white journalists I thought of as my friends didn't want to hear it. Most of them ignored me. At least one of them told me to go to hell.

i'll say it again, my loud and vigorous support for any democrat who calls for televised hearings and criminal charges for everyone involved in DOGE. this guy should never be able to live in peace again.

Huge congrats to @shoutoutmapes.bsky.social for his started review for The Ganymedan in Publishers Weekly!! @solarisbooks.bsky.social @bardythoughts.bsky.social

Very exciting news!

An interesting thread that I have some issues with, but very worth a read. As someone who’s pretty anti-AI, I hope to be open to challenges against how I think it should be fought. This will be something to discuss at my NYCC panels in Oct.

Way to go @shoutoutmapes.bsky.social !!

I honestly have no idea why we even took con law at this point.

What is fat, but insulin persevering?

"GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE"

Hello, I’m Jewish. I think genocide is bad and Zohran Mamdani is good. Hope this help.

This sounds like a bit but I’m being serious: kids using chat gpt for their homework are denying themselves the invaluable experience of learning how to bullshit their way through a problem. You drink some caffeine the night before and figure it the fuck out. That’s a skill. You need it in life.

Huge thanks to my family, friends, and partner for all their support! And also shout-out to my agent @kalyarn.bsky.social, Editor @cyngharris.bsky.social, and the rest of the team at @andrewsmcmeelkids.bsky.social. Get your copy here: publishing.andrewsmcmeel.com/book/pacheco...

Happy Book Birthday to @apamaate.bsky.social !!! @andrewsmcmeel.bsky.social

Judges have realized how little power they have against the other two branches of government if they don’t want to comply.

I grilled 72 hot dogs on Saturday, but did not eat them all.

Is it a bad idea to be pitching editors when I’ve had a lot of late nite gin while listening to Jack White?

Just upgraded to a new version of Acrobat, and... look. I am reading a friend's NOVEL. Something I WANT to read. For ENJOYMENT. Fuck off into the sun and take your designer with you.

This is very exciting!!

Just called Gillibrand and Schumer to demand they not only vote against the murderous Republican budget bill, but that they deny unanimous consent at every opportunity and do everything else they can to gum up the works. This is intolerable. Find your senators here and make your own calls: reps.fyi

She knows exactly where that book you want is shelved.

Here is some good news!! "Despite the timing of a massive Amazon book sale, indies nationwide reported strong sales and attendance for this year’s Independent Bookstore Day festivities." www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...

An old slide I made for a lecture about writing. You have my full permission to use it if you would want to.

“I can’t wait to read this book written by AI”

This is so, so bleak. (Source: www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/42...)

I have a lot, but this one has been running a LOT recently.

i mean, if the choices on offer are: a. talk to JD Vance b. die i can see why he chose how he did.

When the Pope ghosts someone he REALLY ghosts them.

Francis knew what was up.

The stupid is coming from within the house.

4/ This honestly is perhaps the most insane thing we’ve heard since Jan 20. Musk, Thiel and Luckey want the US to pay for the creation of this network of surveillance and attack lasers and then the Pentagon will become a subscriber to the service. So the US won’t own our own missile defense.

Had some nice Easter bells last night in Lisbon.

Better a pig than a gen A.I. user!

Lololol. Nice work guys! Fascists never push for more.

I’m an author married to an author who is also an artist (he’s ambitalented, yes, it’s unfair). I have watched what goes into a book cover. It’s skilled work, worth every cent. You cannot replicate that with a computer. Cannot. I narrate my audiobooks. I spent time learning, practicing.

Happy that FSG Kids will be releasing this new Annihilation children's edition later this year.

Daammmmmmmmnnn

Today, you can use your powers of vision to read the books I've written or contributed to. I myself will be on display on some other day. I wrote WRATH GODDESS SING, a novel about how Achilles slaughtering her enemies, killing and eating the gods, and learning it's a mistake to talk to dolphins.
