As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Arte Moreno bought the Angels in 2003 (the year after they won the Series) for $184 million. He then spent 23 years running them into the ground, let the stadium decay, wasted Trout and Ohtani, and sold for $4 billion. And the owners are crying poverty and threatening to kill baseball next year.

No hell too hot. www.sunjournal.com/2026/07/13/i...
The little girl was still in Bluey pajamas.

No older than 3, she was trying to smell the flowers.

At her side, a pink rolling bag.

Her father, Joan Sebastian Guerrero, had just been fatally shot and yanked from a car he’d been driving. Now, he lay handcuffed in the street, where he would remain for five hours.

 “You took her dad, you took her dad!” a woman nearby yelled, according to Cecelia Humiston, 22, who witnessed the interaction in Biddeford on Monday morning.

Hey friends, my mom has an intensive surgery coming up as part of her cancer treatment. To help her out, I'm raffling off some limited Jeff VanderMeer novels from my collection. There will be three winners with all proceeds going directly to my mom. See next post for info and alt text for book info.
The Book of Lost Places: The Selected Works of Jeff VanderMeer. The book is in pretty great condition for how rare it is. The title page is signed, but it does not have a numbering page.Shriek: An Afterword. Limited edition from Wyrm Publishing. This is number 316/500. It is signed and has a second signed inscription. The book itself is in great condition, but sadly does not come with the CD.Finch. Limited edition Rebel Samizdat 89/350 and comes with the CD. It's signed on the front cover and is in excellent condition.

With all due respect, it's utterly dismaying to see the leader of the AFT saying that we should embrace AI as a solution to the crisis of overburdened, under-resourced teachers instead of leading the charge against this project to make them do more with less.

Brandon Sanderson is a practicing Mormon, which means he gives 10% of his pre-tax income to an international hate group that wants women and people of color subjugated and queer folks erased entirely. If you MUST read his LitRPG fics with delusions of grandeur, please just pirate them.
