i wrote a short (850-word) essay about organizing my very first protest, despite being kind of a cowardly activist. there's kind of an amazing postscript to this story, which i'll share in the this thread (read it after you read the essay, okay?) www.ebar.com/story.php?ch...

today when i asked a bookseller to carry my book, the first thing he did was look up to see how many amazon reviews it had. there were two. 😟 if you want authors to keep making the work you enjoy, rate/review their books on amazon, goodreads, b&n, etc. it makes a difference!

This is why mask bans are suddenly being proposed. If you’re in a place where that’s happening and you think we should prioritize public and personal health and freedom over expanding the powers of the police state then please do let your representatives know why the freedom to mask matters to you

Cops don’t like them; makes it harder to use surveillance footage and facial recognition to arrest people (especially at protests).

hello i hope your day was pretty

The idea of “PhD level intelligence” is very funny to me, personally, because I have worked with scientists for 20 years. I know someone who has helped find treatments for diseases we didn’t even think were possible and also struggled to understand how the hot tap of a water cooler worked.

i love this pic of me and my ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥 cartoonist friend @leelacorman.bsky.social

dear bug-loving pals: any idea what this tiny cutie will grow up to be? they live in my lavender.

Okay, I'VE BEEN GOOD for years. I ignored the most prolific and hateful book banner in America repeatedly jumping into my replies shouting lies so many times. But I went off on him just one little time, as a treat. Once he sees it I'll block him.
