i see a ton of vivek signs in cincy suburbs and its the burbs that determine the win. 24 burbs went redder, same in 22. i'd like it to be real, but ohio is a constant disappointment

#LitHodgepodge I'd love to tour with Silvia Moreno-Garcia. She is such a fluid writer and isn't genre bound. And I love her books. For dead, hmmm, maybe Mark Twain? (altho he preferred demure women and I am not) Ida B Wells would be interesting. I admire her deeply. Or Edith Wharton

Evergreen tweet from a while back, from the old place.

A tweet by Lydia Kauppi which says: Americans have fetishized rugged individualism to such a degree that being asked to share community responsibility feels like oppression.

A little spooky and some romance and definitely things we'd call zombies. A reader told me they were surprised by how dark and bloody it was (and they are a dentist, so take that as you will) Available at Kobo, Bookshop.org, and other non Amazon places! books2read.com/u/b5depp

A foggy background with a bookcover on it for The Dissolution of Tal Stephens, which shows a woman in a red dress with her face melting. Text at top says Looking for spooky read (with feels?) A list on the right says: Necromancy, murder mystery, zombies, vengeful mages, and kisses

oh they are going for it. because apparently we voters can't possibly understand what we are voting for

if i say im fat don't respond "no you're beautiful." what does one have to do with the other? stop using fatphobic rhetoric to put other people down. if you're ok saying that about them, what are you really thinking about me?

I voted Ohio and you can too! The early voting center in Hamilton co was busy (the worst part was parking), but they had many windows open so the line moved quickly. We can do it! 🌊

yes, greenwitch is the best one (i sometimes think dark is rising is better than the grey king but the use of wales, and will's disorientation and intro of bran are so good. it won the newbery for a reason!)

It's the most spookiest time of the year! Ghouls and goblins, tricks and treats, with monsters soon to be out roaming the streets! Maybe it's time to curl up with a good book? Maybe The Backwards Knight, or The Dark Side of Super?? Either way, it's time to get spooky! #Booksky #BookTok

Hi #PortfolioDay! I'm Laura, a traditional painter working in abstracted surreal fantasy themes. Most of my work is in watercolor. Lately it's been a lot of "getting lost in the woods, and how to find your way" Website fallenlights.net Patreon patreon.com/fallenlights Email laura@fallenlights.net

Landscape painting of twisting roots and branches with oranges and pinks. In the middle is a green deer with a path of ribbon flowing from his feet into the empty air below.

orange landscape of an abstracted tree and sunset. It's almost like a tower mixed with plants.

Landscape of a tree in the forest, with air below its roots. It could also be a tower with many windows. Blues, teals and grays are the colors.

A raven flying through a storm. The shapes are flowing, like flower petals all around. He has a pink ribbon in his beak.

Man in a gilet stood on platform 12 gives up on reading the display and asks ChatGPT out loud if he is on the right platform for his train. I don’t want to be dramatic about it but Eratosthenes figured out the circumference of the Earth using a stick and knowledge of a distant well.

In one of the opening scenes of Titanic, the ROV is seen approaching from the starboard and then entering a door into a gangway that is on the port side. truly pedantic (also personal complaints about how the film portrayed Murdoch and Ismay)

I think its insane that people are dumping their tax returns into ChatGPT or Claude. That's so much personal data. and personally, if i see one more person with a W2 asking how they can take a deduction meant for business property because Claude said so, i might lose it.

Some of the escalations we're seeing, including the attack on Ilhan Omar's home (I will not pretend this act was "investigatory"), are desperate acts. But we must remember that desperate people can be very dangerous. A domestic abuse victim, for example, is in the most danger when trying to leave.
