First glimpse of Orion, last night (this morning technically) a bit after midnight! Maybe it’s cliche to pick Orion as my favorite constellation, but he’s just so dazzling. ✨⭐️ Happy First Orion Day!

As someone who can’t sew at all but who has written lots of novels that contain romance, a) thank you, and b) I am in awe of people who can make clothes; it’s super cool in my opinion.

Anyway, here's her Tweet. Romance is a legitimate genre, clothing is still made by humans & they deserve a living wage, and fuck gen-AI. ~fin
Screenshot of a Joyce Carol Oates Tweet that reads "this is why AI-generated romance novels make perfect sense. Formulaic fiction doesn't need to be written by hand, so to speak; what difference does it make if a machine "writes" it? There are machine-made clothes & there are custom-made clothes. They appeal to different consumers."

I finally just actually read the whole JCO tweet about the romance novels, and I got to the point about the clothing manufacturing at the end of the Tweet right now and I'm so mad I can't even decide where to start.

And for those of us who know that chilblain is a word because we have had them IRL: let me tell you, an under-desk foot warmer is THE way to go. 😄 Far fewer chilblains since treating my feet to one of those. (It's like an electric blanket that folds and makes a warm pocket for your feet.)

Daaaamn, Tim Curry. 🔥😆👏 This bit is regarding the filming of Home Alone 2, from his memoir Vagabond.
Excerpt from Tim Curry’s Vagabond:
Later in the week, Donald Trump and Marla Maples-who was his mistress at the time- did a walk-through while we were shooting one of the scenes, eager to find the director.
"I want Marla to meet Chris Colum-bus," Trump said to me, "because Marla is a very talented actress."
"I'm... sure she is," I said, leaning fully into the conciliatory tone of a typical top-notch concierge. That wasn't a complete lie; I have no doubt she was good at faking it.

Fraternities make it grossly stark that many men are okay with receiving abuse if in exchange they will one day be licensed to commit that and other abuses.

I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

Molly Ringle @writermollyringle.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
The first big contraction or the water breaking is not a “ten minutes till baby” warning. I do understand, as a writer, the need to condense timelines, so if that’s why it’s written like that, I get it. I just want to make sure people don’t think it actually works that way.

Molly Ringle @writermollyringle.bsky.social · 26/09/2026
But what if the water breaks? you ask. Surely that means you’re DEFINITELY in labor? It pretty much does, yeah, but a) it can happen at various points in the process; labor does not usually START with water breaking, and b) you’ll often still have many hours to go after the water breaks.

They have several hours, often several days, of off-and-on cramps (Braxton-Hicks contractions) and maybe call their docs/midwives, only to be told, “Monitor those and call back when they’re getting more regular and closer together.” It’s a looonnng process in most cases.

Peeve in books/films/shows: When a pregnant person gets a sudden sensation/pain in the belly, looks at the nearest person, and says, “The baby’s coming.” Believe me: pregnant folks and their partners and their medical teams WISH it was that easy to tell. It almost never is. It’s more like…
