The Legolas and gimli “never thought I’d die fighting side by side with an elf” scene from the two towers except the quote has been altered to read “never thought I’d die fighting side by side with Catholics/what about side by side with a Pope Against AI!/Aye, I could do that”

"The current level of political animosity is exactly what one would expect to see if an extremist faction attempted to rescind the hard-earned rights of the vast majority of the country’s citizens." There are not enough exclamation points to convey how I felt reading this paragraph

Screenshot of article which reads: From this perspective, the “both sides” frame falls apart. The prob-
lem is not that the parties are divided. The problem is the existential
threat that a reempowered ethnonationalist strain poses to pluralistic
U.S. democracy writ large. The current level of political animosity is
exactly what one would expect to see if an extremist faction attempted
to rescind the hard-earned rights of the vast majority of the country’s
citizens. The only way to re-oppress most of a country is to use anti-
democratic and authoritarian tactics. And the only way to oppose those
tactics is to push back as a population and clearly reject them. This is
the argument happening in the United States, and its pathology is not
anger—it is the movement to undermine a generation of rights.

This news is important because all the fucks out there actively attempting to wreck the world want you to think that the work is hopeless and just mitigating the worst case scenario. It's not. Fucking keep going.

Nine rotating POVs. It's a Robin Hood retelling, so. *gestures manically at the Merry Men* Robin's chapters are 1st person and the rest are 3rd. He's not an UNreliable narrator, but he ain't exactly reliable, either. All characters further the plot, but sometimes the plot needs a diff voice!

DON'T GO GENTLY is an American Robin Hood retelling set in Wisconsin during societal and technological collapse, and I'm posting it serially every month starting THIS SEPTEMBER! FREE! (The Governor is King Richard the Lionhearted.) linktr.ee/motorycycleboyfriend #writingcommunity #lgbtqwriters

Ted Carlisle was angling for Governor of Wisconsin running a campaign centered around ‘traditional American values.’ This was vague by design, to cast a wide net, to thread an impossible needle. He was a Trojan horse of a Democratic candidate; he’d taken great pains in his years as a senator to appear much more conservative than he actually was, than he actually planned on being once in office. He was a wolf in sheep’s clothing—or, maybe it was the other way around, considering the political landscape of 2034. Ted was a dirty Democratic Socialist masquerading as a barely-left-of-center establishment Democrat, as a the kind of politician whose votes were for sale. He was behind enemy lines.

From Vol. II of DON'T GO GENTLY, a near-future, post-apocalyptic Robin Hood retelling set in Wisconsin's Driftless region. It's as insane and as fun as it sounds. Little John and Robin Hood are endgame. ;) linktr.ee/motorcycleboyfriend for details. #queerwriters #writingcommunity #lgbtqwriters

“I wanna throw up,” was the first thing Jules told Ted when she finally got to speak to him, hours later. “They’re killing people, Ted. They’re shooting ‘em in the head like rabid dogs and burying them and they’re hiding it from the rest of us.”
There was no field hospital. Innocent people were being taken to Effigy Mound Quarry to be executed, their bodies buried in the sand. Their only crime was being sick.
Ted’s face drained of color as the words tumbled out of Jules mouth in a confused rush. She didn’t have any other details; Brinley and his men had moved onto other subjects after that, something about taxes and tithes, and she’d stopped paying attention because she couldn’t believe what she’d just heard. She had to wait two more hours for them to leave, and when they did, she hightailed it to the Carlisle’s quarters. There she sat at their dining table, alone and panicking, until Ted finally arrived home around sunset.

I'm going to start posting chapters of my Robin Hood retelling on Patreon and Substack starting in September. DON'T GO GENTLY is a genre-bending retelling set in the Driftless region of Wisconsin during societal and technological collapse. Details here! linktr.ee/motorcyclebo... #WeeknightWriters

Large and bright red Gothic lettering reads DON'T GO GENTLY beside an illustration of an angry-looking young man wearing a hood. His hair is the same color as the title. A subtitle set to his right reads AN AMERICAN ROBIN HOOD STORY. The illustration and text is set on a black background.

I've posted an early chapter preview of my modern Robin Hood retelling, DON'T GO GENTLY, on my Patreon. Alanna is Alan-a-Dale, and instead of a bard, she is a fanfic-writing fujoshi (and I adore her). www.patreon.com/motorcyclebo... #robinhood #fujoshi #indiewriter #lgbtauthor

Bold white text on black backgrond:
Siobhan and Alanna wiped their boots on the salt-crusted industrial floor mats in the entrance of the residence hall and made their way to the front desk. In any other time, the building would have been alive and bustling at this hour. But it wasn’t any other time, it was the year of the storms, which meant it was the year UW-Madison’s student enrollment was at a historic low. With the civil unrest, the clamp-down on international and out-of-state students, the general brain-drain caused by two decades of anti-intellectualism enshrined into federal law, and of course the meningitis-like endemic in the south and in the west, it was not surprising. Finding a job, avoiding illness, and not getting disappeared by the HDA was a little more pressing than getting a degree.

Came across these past wise words from my friend @mskellymhayes.bsky.social today:

They don't want you to understand that history matters. They don't want you to understand that political education and training matter. They want you to think you are going it alone, trying to invent the wheel in the streets. They want you to lack the tools you need to win. You are part of a larger lineage of resistance. That does not diminish you. It makes you even more powerful.

The image here borrows its title from Grant's 1868 presidential campaign slogan, "Let us have peace." Here's what Frederick Douglass had to say about that sentiment.

In the language of our greatest soldier, twice honored with the Presidency of the nation, “Let us have peace.” Yes, let us have peace, but let us have liberty, law, and justice first. Let us have the Constitution, with its thirteenth, fourteenth, and fifteenth amendments, fairly interpreted, faithfully executed, and cheerfully obeyed in the fullness of their spirit and the completeness of their letter.
