"But the handicapped need cars!" No, what they need are options in mobility. The tech exists to enable their freedom of independent mobility, but almost always what is lacking is the enabling infrastructure. Bike lanes and quality sidewalks serve everyone.

Canadians should NOT be traveling to the US. Our sovereignty is under threat. Our economy is under threat. The US has fallen and is regularly committing egregious human rights violations. ICE has locked up Canadians. Boycott America. Vote with your dollar & stand against fascism.

This is all hands on deck! Pneumatic plague is airborne and nearly always fatal if untreated. Wiped out 150 million, half of Europe, way back when. Treatable with antibiotics, but we don't have enough antibiotics. Also from a lab in Russia, where they still have weaponized plague. Total nightmare.

Princess Prisma Moonsorrow the Cosmic Ghost Bag is on super sale until midnight tonight. I designed and hand-sewed her and her hat, and I hand-embroidered all her stars. Prisma wholeheartedly believes that she's a princess, although most people don't seem to agree. jeremycreature.bigcartel.com

Here's a lovely photo of Prisma. She's a black ghost with a gray moon face, twinkly black eyes, and a little frown. Her body is covered with stars of various colors and sizes. There's every color of the rainbow, as well as pink. The top of her head is a metal coin purse clasp. She's wearing a black fabric witch hat magnetically attached to the clasp. There's green fur in the background of the pic.

Here's another lovely photo of Prisma, where she's resting on my palm, her back facing the camera. Her back is also covered with an embroidered galaxy of colorful stars. The hat is beside her.

Here's a lovely peek inside Prisma. Her lining is a beautiful galaxy print fabric.

The picture on the left is the Great Wall of China, but so is the picture on the right. Often when thinking about greatness we fixate on how it looks at the end-the sum of it-but most greatness is achieved by stacking one small action on another. That's really all it takes to achieve great things.

But we have to be careful when this convo centers one case. The reason they want to dox this woman or focus on how many times her story changes (if it even does) or worry over the ruined lives of the men involved is because you can pick apart a single case. Everyone will find it in what they want.

The cover of my third novel, HERO COME HOME. Four human figures centred, the main image being that of a bearded man looking back over his shoulder (that's Oro, the protagonist), with a circle of symbols behind him. We can see a swan and a key. In the foreground are three people: two women, one with a mysterious marking? scar? who knows!? on her cheek and the other carrying a sword, flanking an older, balding man holding up a pistol. The possibly-scarred woman looks ever so slightly amused, and that is certainly very like her. Everybody else is not happy to be here, or indeed, anywhere
