In my defense, some of this is getting caught up on Seanan McGuire's Patreon, so: short stories, not books (<10).

I don't want to post many more updates on this now that we're working with a lawyer to hopefully unravel it, but we have been told that this is going to be A PROCESS just to get the accounts unlocked, much less maybe recover some money. So I added a few other gift cards on here for practical shit.

I've been writing code for 20 years and the best AI can do for me is find the missing freaking commas. Which a good code editor can also do. I am deeply afraid all that all the knowledge I found by googling error messages will disappear forever. Or already has.

Despite creating a billion-dollar franchise - with a new $200M budget Hollywood blockbuster launching in a month - the creator of He-Man's family were unable to afford his dementia and care facility costs, and had to setup a GoFundMe. Mattel gave $5,000.

Like I said: the civil rights era never ended. You are still in it. The most important form of free speech, is the right to vote. Racists don't want Black people to vote. So they wrote down a plan to stack the Supreme Court with people that would make it harder for Black people to vote. It worked

I love making fun of my orange boy. But just as I'd be comfortable teasing a friend for being blond, I would also not assume her traits belong to every blond, everywhere. People (and cats) are individuals.

when we mourn le guin, we mourn one of our greatest writers & thinkers. but we also mourn one of our all-time greatest haters

All you do is take all the sex out, and use little short words, and little dumb ideas, and don't be too scary, and be sure there's a happy ending. Right? Nothing to it. Write down. Right on.

If you do all that, you might even write Jonathan Livingston Seagull and make twenty billion dollars and have every adult in America reading your book.

But you won't have every kid in America reading your book. They will look at it, and they will see straight through it, with their clear, cold, beady little eyes, and they will put it down, and they will go away. Kids will devour vast amounts of garbage (and it is good for them) but they are not like adults: they have not yet learned to eat plastic.

You ever think about how the Mafia boss in The Rocketeer has higher ethical standards than everyone who attended the WHCD

The Mafia boss from 1991's cinematic masterpiece, The Rocketeer. He's yelling at a Nazi: "It matters to me. I may not make an honest buck, but I'm 100% American, and I don't work for no two-bit Nazi." Then he teams up with the FBI to fight Nazis and it's awesome.

Yes, Swiss scientist Fritz Zwicky coined the term “dark matter” which is impressive, but he also coined the term “spherical bastard” to describe people who are bastards no matter which way you look at them, and I think that should be celebrated more.

They paused Oversight Committee hearings the minute we started getting answers about the Epstein files. Now it’s “roundtables”: no rules, no oaths, no subpoenas. You do the math. Because the moment accountability shows up, they shut it down. The survivors deserve better.
