We don’t spend enough time talking about just how WEIRD all these people are. This is just an incredibly weird and insecure thing to say. Imagine any other SecDef ever being this weird and insecure?!

They're about to print up some galleys of my lady detective novel, so it's time for a new pinned post. So lucky to have stellar blurbs from both Carl Hiaasen and Vicki Hendricks grace the galleys for Bury Me in Vegan Leather.

still from The Big Lebowski of Karl Hungus lying drunk in a pool floatie next to an empty bottle of liquor. White text reads:

PRAISE
for
BURY ME IN VEGAN LEATHER
"If Raymond Chandler had a wild and wayward great-granddaughter, she'd write like April Wolfe... probably shouldn't make you laugh, but you do. Sober, buzzed, or hungover, Barbara "Bobby Sockett" is a private eye you won't soon forget. The city of angels doesn't stand a chance."
— Carl Hiaasen

movie still, up-shot of a woman in a shiny teal bikini, holding a bottle of sunscreen. White text reads:

PRAISE
for
BURY ME IN VEGAN LEATHER
"Off-beat and shocking. This down-and-out detective smashes all the stereotypes with her brutal introspection and unique lack of method for solving a case. April Wolfe's eclectic pop-culture humor is so much fun that you might forget to follow the plot. I laughed out loud and scared my cat!"
— Vicki Hendricks, author of MIAMI PURITY

She was doxxed by a Chi Phi alum who implored his followers to “help a Chi Phi.” Just in case anyone thought that organization was remotely redeemable.

Today is the day that this request for LA28 financial information was due. As I've been saying for the past two years, LA28's "annual reports" have gotten more and more opaque yet the City Council approves them with no questions. We haven't even had an ad hoc committee meeting since June!

I typically want any movie to have a long release window in theaters before it hits streaming, but considering the merger coming, I am wondering how quickly it'll be on HBO, because it would be nice if it actually does make it to streaming.

I hated ai before but now that Apple suddenly forced Apple Intelligence onto my laptop thereby closing out all my in-use apps w/o saving documents I was working on and somehow wiping out all of my settings, deinstalling browsers, and deleting my entire downloads folder, ai has filled me with rage.

ICE arrests have soared to record highs over the few months, as ICE agents work with cops and courts to disappear people while avoiding public visibility. We urgently need new points of intervention to make this tragedy visible and take action. Here are some starting points: crimethinc.com/MeltICE

The youngest person his pager attack killed was 9-year-old Fatima Abdullah, who had just started 4th grade. The pager was on a table when it went off and she picked it up to take to her dad. It exploded in her face and reports said it covered the room in her blood. She wanted to learn English.

They had two emergencies at the dentist with two separate assault victims so every twenty minutes someone came in and asked if I was the one who got hit and I had to clarify that yes but I got hit by my daughters head while teaching her to polka and for some reason that disappointed them.
