The number of people whose work, talent, etc. have amazed me during a long life that have turned out to be crazy, evil, supportive of evil, etc... is not a small number any longer. Entire bodies of work that I have supported now make me unbearably sad.

Congrats to all the Chicago Marathon runners who had to run through a war torn ravaged city. You did it!

The lengths some folks will go to to defend something when, really, if they still want to have it or enjoy it, they could just say nothing, realizing the creator is a horrible person, and there would be no drama. I'm left believing the drama is all they want.

I'm sure if you do a newsletter, you know the frustration, but when 1200 people receive it, and 400 plus have already opened it, and there is no link, including the one to a free excerpt from a book, has been clicked more than one time, it makes you wonder. I get some feedback in email but...

Pretty sad, after the battles that took place all year, to see the @milwaukeebrewers.bsky.social flying a "L" sign after the game. Pretty much ended all of my "it was a tough series" thoughts and replaced them with fucke those no class assholes.

I can assure you that if he had a baguette, or any other form of food, he would not hand it to anyone. (lol)

Our boy Webster has had an off-and-on limp that seems suddenly to be a little worse. Have to take him to the vet tomorrow (hoping they are open on the holiday). He's such a lovey guy I hate that he's hurting, and doesn't let it affect his attitude.

Webster, an orange tabby exotic short-haired Persian acat wearing a polka dotted collar and a polka dot party hat, staring into the distance as if he's hearing the call to save the world.

Would he play himself?

One of the most cringe things on social media is "heartfelt" posts, outrage posts about people, or events, that the poster clearly knew absolutely nothing about, and did not care about, until there was a bandwagon to jump on.

Grieve.

Every person will have a threshold for who does or doesn't get their grief energy.

And the reasons for not grieving will range from "this person did something against my core principles" to queerphobia, racism, ableism, antisemitism, etc on down.

I'm stubborn... of course. I keep writing books that do "okay". I keep sending out newsletters with links in them and the site says YAY! TWO CLICKS (lol).
