LAST CONTRACT OF ISAKO x KILLSWITCH PROTOCOL Arun “Starling” Tige doesn’t want to be an assassin anymore. Only problem is, the man who trained her can give her the childhood memories she lost in a coup twenty years ago, but to get them back he wants her to kill a king. #DVPit #A #SF #LGBT

Assassin Starling lives in a world of blood with a forgotten past. Now she wants a little cargo ship outside of Alliance space. When the man who trained her offers her childhood memories and a way out if she kills a king, she can’t say no. Or she’ll lose her family and her life. #DVPit #A #SF #LGBT

Last day of #DVParty! I'm so excited for everyone! The (very) few projects I've seen (because time) are wonderful! The people, even more so! Wishing everyone luck tomorrow!!! And a huge thanks to all the #DVPit mods, runners, founders, and all the people for putting this together for so many years!

A cargo ship on the Rim doing jobs that don’t involve knives would be nice. But to get her memory back, Starling must do one last assassination for a resistance she didn’t know she was a part of. And if it doesn’t succeed, it means the end of her dreams. Or her life. #DVParty #A #SF #LGBT Dystopian

I’m going to be pitching an #A cyberpunk dystopian #SF MS about an amnesiac assassin whose mentor manipulates her into a last job in a few days, so I thought I’d throw up a moodboard for #DVParty today! #DIS #LGBT #ND

It’s time for her annual checkup. She’s healthy now, but used to get urinary crystals and bladder stones. She’s on a special diet that requires a prescription yearly. So here we are. Unceremoniously dumped into her carrier and dragged to the vet. She hates me. LOL! Here’s to semi-spicy kitties!

A friend of mine found these three kittens behind a Bay Area gas station. They are tame, vaccinated, and incredibly affectionate. Unfortunately, she's unable to keep them and I'm trying to find them a home. They are at risk of going to a shelter. Bay Area people, are you open to adopting?

So if blue eyes don’t actually have any pigment and are only blue because of Rayleigh scattering, does that mean they’d appear to be a different color on a different planet with a different atmosphere/sun?

Can anyone tell me what this is? (I feel like I should do that wrong answers only meme thing, but I’m not even sure what a right answer would look like!) I received it in the mail yesterday, and it had no card, no sender, nothing to identify who it’s from. Um… I feel like I’m getting punked somehow.

A book cover for the book Project Tasman by S. Morgan Burbank. A woman with dark brown hair is free falling in front of a group of green, blue, and purple lights. She is wearing a blue zip-up hoodie and a black t-shirt along with blue jeans. She has black eyeglasses, as well as piercings on her right eyebrow and nose. She is watching a number of poker chips -- one each purple, red, yellow, black, and blue -- falling through the air near her. A sixth chip is resting in her right hand, this one colored white.

Such fake news! How much you wanna bet these “leaders” are either all white or not even “leaders”? (Paranoia hat on says that these “leaders” are people associated with the store, not actual boycotters.) Even if they reinstate their DEI initiatives, the damage is done. Never shopping there again!

@victoriastrauss.com Hi! Not sure if you've run into this "contest" before, but I wanted to give a heads-up as it feels scammy and they've started following a bunch of independent and unpublished (including querying) authors. The contest claims it's for novels, but they only ever assess the
Screenshot of Bsky account for a "First Novel Prize".

Profile: "A writing competition open to unpublished and independently published novelists. Entries close on the 31st of May. Judged by Sally Williamson (Transworld) and Hayley Steed (Janklow & Nesbit). Organised by the Literary Studio.

All Caraman wants for Christmas is ownership of the embryo that mysteriously started growing in the walls of the organ factory she runs. She doesn’t know what Dr. Arteme Farrow knows—that the thing Caraman actually needs is a lobotomy. Ecce Lochia. 20k Sapphic horror novella. #Q #A #S #H #questpit
A graphic with a horror aesthetic, including someone drawing a needle, wide eyes, and a fleshy mass. Title is ECCE LOCHIA, stylized in all caps. It reads below that: a suicidal exec and a heartless surgeon discover something gestating in the walls of an organ factory. Family won't fix this.

The quote at the top reads: "Feelings were like snowflakes. You never felt the same thing twice. And sometimes, you felt nothing at all."
