I recently posted the first chapter of a new novel-in-progress, Untitled Maid Story (but very tentatively to be titled, Maid Flesh) to the patreon: www.patreon.com/fakeminsk/po... It's a story of wealth, privilege, and maids, inspired by recent Booker prize winner, Flesh.

On one hand you should use titles like a normal person, on the other I completely refuse to use the english title for "the girl with the dragon tattoo" in any context I can because I think the decision to localize it that way is cowardice and travesty that protects the fee-fees of rapist men

Discworld QOTD, from The Wee Free Men

Witches are naturally nosy,” said Miss Tick, standing up. “Well, I must go. I hope we shall meet again. I will give you some free advice, though.”
“Will it cost me anything?”
“What? I just said it was free!” said Miss Tick.
“Yes, but my father said that free advice often turns out to be expensive,” said Tiffany.
Miss Tick sniffed. “You could say this advice is priceless,” she said, “Are you listening?”
“Yes,” said Tiffany.
“Good. Now...if you trust in yourself...”
“Yes?”
“...and believe in your dreams...”
“Yes?”
“...and follow your star...” Miss Tick went on.
“Yes?”
“...you’ll still be beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren’t so lazy. Goodbye.

lyric comic to pink in the night, by mitski. page 1 text: and i know i've kissed you before, but i didn't do it right. scene 1: a little boy and girl are sitting in the rain. the boy wipes away tears, having tripped and scratched a knee. the girl leans forward to kiss the small wound. scene 2: the two friends are in elementary school, holding hands. the boy looks at a picture depicting a mom, dad, and child.

page 2 text: can i try again, try again, try again. scene 1: high school. they lie on the floor during a study session, but they only have eyes for each other. scene 2: college. the same couple, only now they are two girls, kissing in bed. scene 3: the girls are getting married, exchanging a sweet kiss in a field of flowers. sunset colors cast warm light onto their wedding dresses.

page 3 text: try again, and again, and again. scene 1: the girls are moving in together. one dozes off against an unpacked moving box as the other kisses her head. scene 2: disneyland. both wear minnie mouse ears as they take a selfie, laughing at the kiss mark one has left on her wife's cheek. scene 3: the childhood friends have grown older. one woman hides a bouquet behind her back as they kiss over breakfast.

page 4 text: and again, and again, and again? scene 1: the women wake up in bed together, hints of grey in their hair. one kisses the other's bare shoulder. scene 2: a winter walk. they kiss as their dog plays in the snow. scene 3: the shore of a beach. the wives have greying hair and fine wrinkles, but they're still just as in love. they hold each other close, laughing, full of affection.

The film is written, directed, and co-stars Hitoshi Ozawa, a legendary Yakuza actor who is a villain in Yakuza 0, who got his fellow legends involved. This was his passion project inspired by one of his best friends, a trans woman, and he worked with the community for representative casting.

The theme was probably supposed to be "you must be vigilant lest fascism rise again" and/or "people choose their own path and there are wrong choices" and/or "fight for what you believe in even if it seems hopeless".

It’s never hard to tell whether the machine is set to suck or blow. This is what’s happened to Farage after just a few months of long overdue “blow”.

@Steven_Sw...• 1h
BREAKING:
X
Reform UK would win less seats than both Labour and the Conservatives if a general election were to be held today in a dramatic reversal of fortunes for Nigel Farage's party, a YouGov MRP has found
The new large-scale seat by seat MRP by YouGov suggests the UK is currently heading for a hung Parliament with Labour as the largest party with 241 seats
The Conservatives would be in second place with 130 seats, better than their result in the 2024 general election, while Reform would be pushed into third place with 123 seats
If replicated at the next election the poll suggests that both Robert Jenrick and Suella Braverman, who deserted the Tories to join Farage, would lose their seats to their old party
Even if Reform and the Tories could agree a pact they would still not have enough seats to form a majority coalition government
However Labour would also struggle to govern having lost 162 of the 403 seats that it holds at present
It would have to rely on both the Liberal Democrats, predicted to win 71 seats, and the Greens, on nine, or one of the nationali parties in order to command a majority

e.g. Kemi Badenoch might be a disastrously online bombscare of a politician, someone it’s okay to make fun of, but she’s still the leader of the Conservative Party and if she wants to hire Nazis and talk about migrants as an orc horde of rapists who must be crushed, then that is her prerogative.

It’s how Britain works: look at Sir Keir himself, as a prime example. Respect and deference goes up towards superior people who are professionally and socially above you, and contempt and vituperation are showered down on the scum pig-people, who are beneath you and deserve the abuse you give them.

Writers used to be able to live comfortably off the sale of a short story or two a month. Authors like Terry Pratchett made enough money selling silly fantasy books in the 80's that they quit their day jobs. That doesn't happen any more.

The whole "small boats" issue is a problem created out of thin air by successive right wing governments and amplified by a racist media who don't want a single brown person in this country. It's so simple it fits in one post and I can add this sentence too.

Discworld QOTD, from The Color of Magic

It was the King Color, of which all the lesser colors are merely partial and wishy-washy reflections. It was octarine, the color of magic. It was alive and glowing and vibrant and it was the undisputed pigment of the imagination, because wherever it appeared it was a sign that mere matter was a servant of the powers of the magical mind. It was enchantment itself.
But Rincewind always thought it looked a sort of greenish purple.
