Idk i think we should normalize bullying our elected officials. Online, in-person... wherever. Clearly, most of them have forgotten the power of a disparaged people and think they can skate by on words alone.

Remind these fuckers why we elected them, yaknow?

If you're out celebrating the excesses of capitalism, or taking advantage of the steep discounts to get needed items, DO NOT patronize Starbucks.

I'm very sad to share the news that our lovely @chaoticauthor.online has passed away. His ending was peaceful and surrounded with love but came far too quickly after a short battle with pancreatic cancer.

I've known Matt for years. He was a warm, gentle, generous, all-weather friend. I miss him.

Okay okay okay but consider: the Mechsploitation dynamic of Handler/Hound but it's in the fantasy trappings of a collaborative magic system where one person is the wellspring of power that the other person draws from.

MY LORD is currently on sale across all platforms 😁
If you fancy yourself some queer gothic horror, please check it out 💜

mylord.shimaira.com#buys

🖤📚😱🌈📚💙📢📚🌍🌶️📚🩸🌈💜 #DiscountBooks
Queer, slow-burn erotic gothic horror Lord Deminas is known to be cruel. Yet, he's rather protective of Meya, his new chambermaid, and punishes anyone who dares hurt her. Servants regularly vanish, and with the Lord now drinking her blood, Meya and her paramour need to avoid the same happening to either of them. Sapphic, polyam f/f/m hurt/comfort Kinky, medieval lord Consent is emphasised overcoming trauma harm her & suffer Kill your abusers healing blood delicious long pig vampires, but different Foursome in the dungeon Content warning: abduction, off-page and non-graphic sexual abuse (rape is condemned and sexual abusers are killed), explicit sexual content (consent is emphasised), kink (wax play, knife and blood play, primal play, bondage, and mention of spanking and breath play), graphic violence, gore, death, vampirism, cannibalism, and illness (pneumonia). Shimaira dot com 5 star review reading: “The perfect blend of spice and horror” This book takes many dark and chilling themes and a creepy setting and blends them together with the spice just perfectly. I loved the romances between Meya and her two loves and how both unfolded differently but just as naturally. When we meet Meya, she is already on the run and just trying to survive, the full weight of what she has endured has not yet hit her when even more trauma comes her way. This book is about vampires and steamy romance, yes. But it's also about Meya re-learning how to be a human being and finding herself again after so much hardship has beaten her down. There is a scene at the start that sticks in my mind because even those the people who hurt Meya are dead, it's clear she still doesn't feel safe yet; her mind is still living through the trauma even though her body is safe (or as safe as it can be in the castle of a vampire....). This is true for most trauma survivors. It takes a long time for the mind to finally realize the danger is past and this was so perfectly portrayed in this book. Come for the spice and horror, stay for the healing and trauma recovery. ~ Lily

Treasure Planet 2 (unproduced): The Centurion, art by Emil Mitev

It's all the more unfortunate that Treasure Planet didn't find its audience, as it was conceived as the beginning of a saga. A sequel was already in pre-production before being canceled a few days after the film's disastrous release.
The Centurion, art by Emil Mitev A concept sketch of a massive fantasy airship or flying galleon. The vessel features a complex rigging system and numerous billowing white sails, with mechanical elements integrated into the hull. The ship is shown flying past a detailed, dark industrial dock or platform with small buildings and cranes, set against a mostly white background.
