When I was a kid I wondered why people would eat something on purpose that caused them pain. Now I eat spicy food to feel alive.

If you use Libby you can take their survey (that is annoyingly hidden below the inspire me section of the app) and tell them how unhappy you are with this asinine statement.

Discworld QOTD, from Snuff "But what should we do when the highborn and wealthy take to crime? Indeed, if a poor man will spend a year in prison for stealing out of hunger, how high would the gallows need to be to hang the rich man who breaks the law out of greed?"

Whatever you might think of Maduro, the seizure and kidnapping of a head of state takes us to a very dark place. Vast, arbitrary, extra-legal power, which could be exercised almost anywhere, regardless of the character of the target government.

I came home to some very exciting mail. Heartsick and Other Stories contains, among many other treasures, my first published piece of fiction. It's a joy to see my story on a physical page and an even greater pleasure to be included amongst such talented writers #edinburghwritingawards #flashfiction

The cover of "Heartsick and Other Stories" an anthology. The cover depicts a silhouetted figure leaping in the background. In the foreground is a vase suspended in mid-air over a wooden floor. The neck of the vase has ribbons.

To the left are images of the front and back of the anthology. To the right is a list of all the authors included in the anthology.

I'd absolutely design some sort of visual indicator that it isn't his door he's trying to open. 👀 Probably a florescent sign "Your princess (flat) is in another castle (through a different door.)"
