It occurs to me (perhaps in a very preconceived-notion type-a way) that I haven't *directly* promoted the #Itch Punk Bundle yet. It's got some #Steampunk, some #Solarpunk, some #Hopepunk and a bit of my own #Aetherpunk to boot in the form of Locker's Rebellion. Grab it now! itch.io/b/3913/punk-...

There were rainbows, but I couldn't get a great shot while I was driving and it was pretty much gone when we got home.

Settle a controversy for me, please: Are these shoes brown, gray, or another color entirely?

Like...Will it REALLY make a big difference if I have a whole collection of images on screen to illustrate my point? I know that's the professional thing to do, but that's a lot of work. I can't get away with none, nor should I. But c'mon. I somehow doubt this does the trick.

Tom Suozzi is DEFINITELY afraid of @votewelch.bsky.social in the #NY03 Democratic primary. Keep up the fight! If you can contribute to Dani's efforts in any way, it would be huge.

A voicemail text from Suozzi's campaign:

Hi, this is Congressman Tom Swazzi. I'm just calling to remind you that today, Saturday, June 13th, is the first day of early voting in the Democratic primary for Congress. My real opponent in this race is going to be low turnout. Very few people are going to show up on the actual primary on June 23rd, so please. Vote early today, tomorrow, or any day next week. If you need to find your early vote location, please go to my website at swazzziforcongress.com and please vote early today, tomorrow, or any day next week. This is Congressman Tom Swazzi. Thanks so much. This call paid for by Swazi for Congress, www.swaziforcongress.com.

A little clip of encouragement from Locker's Rebellion, out now! Amazon Kindle & Physical Print: www.amazon.com/Lockers-Rebe... Itch .PDFs: jpohlmanwriting.itch.io/lockers-rebe...

“Say,” Kathy suggested, “when we get to Newcastle, after we take care of Ken’s business, we really ought to visit Branden.”
“We should,” Clarice agreed, bobbing her head in tune with the drum beat, sending e-mails off with rapid-fire cut-and-paste speed. “I’m making sure our colleagues know we’re not going back any time soon, by the way. I told them I have no idea who is replacing us, but doled out temporary promotions and the like.”
Kathy offered her wife a smile. “Yeah. We’ll be gone for a while.”
“It’s your first time away from home for a mission in a long time, love,” Clarice said, placing a hand gently on Kathy’s shoulder. “You sure you’re okay?”
“I’ll feel better when we know what’s coming for us, beloved,” Kathy answered. “Once we know what we’re up against, it gets easier to make decisions.”
“Ain’t that the truth?” Clarice scoffed as they passed through the gate in the city wall and the road opened up towards Castrell City on the way to Newcastle.
“Ain’t that the truth,” Kathy answered back.
