A fluffy black cat with large white eyes lies on its side on green grass beneath a textured sky fading from blue to pale pink. White handwritten text reads: “Maybe sometimes you want to do everything so badly that you end up doing nothing at all. That’s okay. Maybe you’re more tired than you realise. I just hope you know that taking care of yourself counts as doing something, too.”

Advice for my younger friends: if you want to encourage yourself to stay healthy and functional, to exercise and eat well... ...pick a couple of motherfuckers you really want to outlive.

White supremacy and patriarchy are the reason for this threat of AI. I know this is obvious to many of us, but it still needs to be spoken aloud.

Decided a flannel shirt was the best way to protect my very fresh forearm tattoos while running errands. 96 was way too hot for that but being in layers did soothe my soul.

Something I think about often is how after 9/11 we had a chance to make this world better and we didn't. We chose to make everything immeasurably worse, not just for others but for ourselves as well. If cutting off your nose to spite your face isn't the American spirit, then I don't know what is.

Another eclipse outing in the early hours of this morning to the base of Glastonbury Tor. It was a fabulous experience to watch but less fabulous to try and get the settings correct and capture the scene in one frame 😂

like the reason Dolly feels like an exceptional human being is because all the things we're talking about today in her lifetime of philanthropy trace back to just .... having empathy and we live in the era of "I Don't Know How to Explain to You That You Should Care About Other People"

"Every book, every story, someone reaches out and says 'It's like you looked inside my life' or 'I thought I was alone before'. It creates connection because you know another person has felt what you're going through - which a machine never will." - Angela Slatter on why she does not use AI.

"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic - the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we’re alone." - Charles de Lint

“If there is a halo round the sun or moon, then we can all expect rain quite soon.” It's true, the old saying: ice crystals in clouds refract off the light, creating a halo that indicates a front is about to move through the area. #WyrdWednesday

Happy Nonbinary People's Day! 💛🤍💜🖤 I'm a nonbinary author of queer SFF. You can assume all my characters are some flavor of queer unless stated otherwise. But my queerest book, with a shy nonbinary elf mage as love interest, is Tea & Treachery at the Infinite Pantry: books2read.com/tea-treachery
Book cover for Tea & Treachery at the Infinite Pantry, a cozy fantasy by Jo Miles, with a wavy rainbow surrounded by labels: 
Magical, anti-colonialist food museum
Older bi woman learning to finally trust herself
Shy nonbinary elf hiding their feelings
A big warm hug in book form
Soooo much yummy food
Problems? Let’s make tea about it
Sweet F/NB friends-to-lovers romance
