This. It has always been this. A sitting American president did this. And because he did this, he should have been convicted and put behind bars. And the fact that we never held him accountable for these crimes will forever stain this country. And we may never recover from it.👇

New Lizards book! Out October 8th! Genuinely think it’s one of the best books I’ve ever written. Brilliantly illustrated by Tim Miller.

You should definitely get yourselves a copy of Droids & Dragons when it releases this Friday (and not just because I'm in it)

My review of Droids & Dragons- 5 stars
FYI, my short story 'Gotta be Dragons' is included in this anthology.

There's something for everyone in this collection; a fantastic variety of stories and poems!
I thoroughly enjoyed reading everything, and several of the stories left me wanting more- I can only congratulate the creative world building utilised.

Highlights for me include:
-Insurance Policy by Robert Miller;
-The Dragon’s Dirge by Carol Dresser;
-A cyborg, when asked about sex by Greg Beatty;
-The Woodcutter and the Dragon by Jay T. Levy;
-Waking Up Human by Jenna Cornell;
-The Dragon and the Little Droid by Shan Jeniah Burton;
-and Vanquishing the Beast by Rachael Crawford.

In all honesty, it was hard to pick favourites, but I 100% recommend reading this anthology.

I know "narcissist" has somehow come to mean "my ex-boyfriend", but now that one's been President for what seems like eternity, can we just take account of the damage that a real one can do? The man has a sense of self and literally nothing else. It would be fascinating if it didn't also kill people

My favorite is when people who have no experience of a thing think they can talk all day about a thing. If you don't have ADHD, then how do you "know" it's over-diagnosed? If you don't need SSRIs, then how do you "know" others don't need them? This is literally basic empathy.

The imposing Callanish Stones stand talk with their shadows spanning out across the glass. It's a super clear sky, but looks cold. Above the central stone is a strange figure-of-8 shape of dots. This is the location of the Sun, at noon, on various different days across the year.

I’m not sure why it’s impossible for a Labour politician to say that racism is not a “legitimate concern”. You cannot and will not ever be enough for your enemies. If you move, they’ll move further. So don’t move.

The progression of certain thinkers from denying the validity of trans people to denying the validity of disabilities is a nice illustration of the way in which transphobic habits of mind can quickly evolve into a kind of acquired sociopathy.
