Even their name—Science Fiction Weekly—is unoriginal, the same name as the Sci-Fi Channel magazine edited back in the day by @scottedelman.bsky.social. (Even more aggravating, they've reprinted some of Scott's own DSF stories, and they're the first result when you Google their and his name.

Saying this again: there is a scammer out there targeting newbie authors, claiming I'm one of their clients. They use different names, and I'm already pursuing legal action. But I have never worked with a PR company, editing service, or book packager, so anybody saying so is lying, period full stop.

Authors Against Book Bans @authorsabb.bsky.social · 22/08/2025
One easy way to support a banned book: Tell the world you're reading it! If you share on social media include a link to somewhere people can get it. Word of mouth is a powerful way to draw attention to books & that takes readers like you shouting about the books you love!

I'm sure that's factored in to the plans of the billionaires who are behind the Heritage Foundation and its Christofascist agenda. Likely part of why Vance has been on a vacation trip once a month.

They set it up for the next generation of dictators. With his obvious dementia and bad health, how can anyone expect him to be around long enough to enact all the heinous crud in the Heritage Foundation manifestos? Vance is going to be a placeholder for the next one, likely Thiel.

He is given too much credit. He's not that smart. He's the point of the spear. The Christofascists in the Heritage Foundation are holding the spear. Bill Gothard and the Koch Brothers had more to do with taking over the GOP than felon47.

If you know you will be punished, that means your parents are going to make it worse. You may trust them in some areas and not in others. And the ones where you don't and think you can handle it may be the very ones where you can't and need their help to avoid harm to yourself or others.

I recall several times where I went along with what my friends were doing and I knew I'd get in trouble from my parents if they found out all the details. They'd punish me if they knew, so I kept those secrets. Not about trust. /2

Relationships between parents and teenagers are rarely as simple as trust equals they tell me everything. Peer pressure or adult predators can lead kids into dangerous situations that they lack the skills to see as dangerous or get out of without harm. /1

I'm sure by "abstract target" they mean "you didn't give us a step by step action plan with cost benefit analysis of each step by someone who sees profits as the justification for ignoring this huge problem. A plan we can pick apart and lobby against until it's too late to implement any of it."

2 thoughts: 1. Most parents copy the parenting behaviors that they saw their parents do (unless they were actually abused or traumatized, then maybe/maybe not). 2. I don't think they choose to be anything. They're dealing w/all the adult shit & kids are exhausting.

Catdaddy Tim @catdaddytim.bsky.social · 31/07/2025
It's not that your kid cannot be trusted to tell you. It's that a teenager can be led astray by other teens or by adult predators. I'm not sure most parents can prepare their teens well enough for that. Still agree on need for privacy, though.

Catdaddy Tim @catdaddytim.bsky.social · 31/07/2025
I think that should be the goal -- but peer pressure gets worse as kids approach the end of school (not so much in college IIRC from my college years). That peer pressure can lead to more dangerous situations for 15-18 y/o than for 8-14.

The Department of Justice is pretending it needed to talk to notorious liar Ghislaine Maxwell to know the truth about Jeffrey Epstein, when it is concealing thousands of documents about him that don’t lie. It’s a sick farce.
