guy who fell into a coma after the last episode of fawlty towers wakes up and looks at the internet
5 panel comic

Panel 1: Purple Guy looks at a laptop and says “boy o boy! I wonder what my comedy hero’s up to”

Panel 2: A tweet from John Cleese that reads “This is where the Arabs were ahead of us

By castrating all their slaves, they made sure that there were no descendants who could claim reparations”

Panels 3-5: Purple Guy slowly closes laptop with a mystified look of revulsion

I hate when they call it a bagel sandwich. That sounds like two pieces of bread with a bagel in the middle. That's what that means and it's horrible.

I have a crafting dilemma and I need opinions from unhinged people who are unhinged the the Bsky way and not in the Threads way: Recently, I bought I full set of the Left Behind books at a thrift due to nostalgia.

There's this person I see around my town sometimes and they've got Hocus Pocus hair and face paint across their eyes and they just go into Dollar General and stare at people and I'm kind of afraid that's me from the future.

Years ago, I was at a book conference, chatting in a dinner line with an editor from a major publishing house. When I told her that I wrote The Turning, she turned cold and accused me of impersonating a different author. I stopped talking about The Turning. Now, my name is on the cover again.

I will never forgive certain climbers in the book world who have spent a decade insisting that plagiarism isn't plagiarism unless it meets the legal definition of copyright violation. And I will never forgive those who went along with it to be in the good graces of unethical people.

Some people call all romantasy "fairy porn" or "fairy smut." That's just not true. All romantasy isn't smut. This one definitely is, though.

I'm gonna cross-post my thoughts on something from Threads. Because I find the vibe here A LOT different. There is a worrying trend, a rise of "nice" in bookish spaces that really concerns me. Because we're being awfully "nice" about some of the stuff that's cropping up in books again.

It’s surreal to me that romance fans spent so much time in the 2010s urging folks to understand that romance novels are no longer rape culture bodice rippers, and now possessive, violent alpha heroes are wildly popular again… and if you who point out the conservative trend, you’re being judgmental.
