I think people are wrong when they say Musk's conscience is getting to him, and I think they're wrong when they say he's too sociopathic to care. The one thing Elon Musk gives a shit about is other people's opinion of him. Remember: he needed a wellness check after the Chappelle incident.

The bizarre Democratic leadership crashout was always coming. You can't spend decades only listening to a bunch of overpaid consultants, wealthy donors, and imaginary swing-voting centrists from Massapequa and then act shocked and appalled when actual voters don't show up for you.

Some people are saying Twitter c. 2015-2018, but imo, it was better earlier than that. 2010-2013 was an incredible time. Zero monetization strategy, just vibes. Every tweet 160 characters or less. Then Gamergate crawled out of a subreddit like a sewer demon and the whole thing never recovered.

I say this as someone who enjoys reading and writing sex scenes: too many authors treat them as an obligation to meet reader expectations rather than an opportunity to deepen characterization and romantic conflict. When a sex scene is doing its job, you should learn something about these people.

ICYMI, I wrote a little thing about how the crafting of sex scenes in genre romance has taken a major hit in recent years. #romancelandia romancing-the-stoned.beehiiv.com/p/no-f-ck-is...

I read this decision start to finish and I can't decide which was my favourite part: "you can't copyright hot boys", or "YOU CAN'T COPYRIGHT THE STATE OF ALASKA."

I think you can get decent reactionary art. The problem is that these people are such catastrophically embarrassing losers that they've spent the last decade having public meltdowns over gas stoves, the Cracker Barrel logo, & whether the green M&M used to be fuckable. They're joyless hall monitors.

OG Twitter people remember when this guy was so liked that if you posted even the mildest criticism about him, you were flooded with days of harrassment, and now look at this whiny little piss baby.

And what gets me is that these same journalists still write like we should give any of their opinions deference at all. "Sure, I was wrong for TEN YEARS, but democrats should..." man, fuck you.

"Damn, maybe we should be soft on the people who have lived in this delusion for TEN YEARS and are just discovering Trump is a fascist" If other people want to have grace, go with my blessing, but I especially will not forgive or forget the journalists who smugly told people we were fear-mongering.

I have vivid memories of 2015 and people telling me "trump can't win" and then when he won, telling me, "The supreme court is fine" and then telling me "roe v wade" is fine, and framing people like me as hysterical, so these people can actually eat shit and put in the work if they're sorry.

It's deeply, deeply fucked up to see a Dem leader so ineffective and disconnected from reality that people have to stand in the cold, begging him to convince his own party to stop bankrolling masked nazis murdering civilians in broad daylight.

There are some days I wake up and see shit like this and feel deeply, deeply resentful of all the people who are responsible for putting this nonsense in front of my eyeballs daily. We are not even a year into this presidency, and it feels like I've aged a decade.

The reactions to the ending of Heated Rivalry is why capital-R Romance people will fight and die on the hill of the Happily Ever After/Happily For Now ending. That ending is load-bearing. It's earned. It's the soothing hug after the story took a bat to your emotions.

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre. A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>. This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

The thing about Bari Weiss is that she has the unshakeable confidence of someone who has never once been the smartest person in any room she's entered, but has also never noticed.

I am going to watch this freaking show just to write a think piece countering stuff like the original post. The NHL as a league is a bigot's wet dream. They banned players from using pride tape. They have no out players. The fan base and players are overwhelmingly white, straight, cis. +

Elizabeth May/Katrina Kendrick @elizabethmay.bsky.social · 18/12/2025
The culture in Heated Rivalry is not about the culture *at large*. It's the homophobic culture of hockey, specifically. The NHL is STILL the only major men’s league with no out gay players. Brock McGillis, who came out after retirement, has said this show was too real for him.

I can only come to one conclusion: a very horny romance show that is not actually about hockey broke a lot of critics' brains.

I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

I don't know how many Senators up for reelection in 2026 actually argued in favor privately and then stepped back to let someone else fall on the sword, but I would bet CASHHHH Chris Coons was one of them.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Someone needs to do a post-mortem of that election because it was an absolutely unhinged cocktail of racism, xenophobia, billionaires with too much time on their hands, a political party working to kneecap its OWN CANDIDATE, all served with a side of legacy media losing its collective fucking mind.

support whomever you’d like, but what is frustratingly dishonest about this take is that actual issue — the thing critics have identified as the problem — isn’t the decision of the 21-year old to get the tattoo, but of the judgment of the 40-year old who still has it.

The only reason they're going after ILR right now is because there was an uptick of COVID migrants who came in on relaxed rules to fill occupation shortages and will soon qualify to stay permanently. This is just pointless fucking cruelty for no reason.

My husband (not American) was asking me, "Shouldn't the protests be more serious than costumes?" and I explained to him that in a time of video manipulation and misinformation, it's very hard to make protests look threatening when people are wearing things like giant inflatable dick costumes.
