I don't talk about it enough, but I have a blog!

I mostly post book reviews for whatever I'm reading and throw up the occasional flash fiction. Feel free to check it out and subscribe.

Thanks! ^_^

I want to make a list of *short stories* (any genre) published by intersex authors in 2025 & hopefully going forward. I've been meaning to do this for a while, and I think now there are plenty of stories.

If you have some stories, let me know / if not, please repost to spread the word?

Thank you!

Trans people: If your partner insults your appearance, mocks your efforts to transition, says they support you in one breath and then that you ruined their lives in the next, are embarrassed to be seen with you, or makes you feel like a burden, that's not your partner, that's your abuser.

i really need people to stop hiring this person for covers. we got in another book with their obvious Ai art in the other day and the more of this shit thats on the shelves the more people will want to work with her. she's been called numerous times. her whole portfolio goes from clip art to Ai.
people have been pointing out the “artist” has been using AI. and the company has deleted the reveal but they sent this email out recently and had said they weren’t doing these dust jackets anymore BUT this is such a WILD thing to write out and email everyone??

y’all. get your refund because wtf

For all the mfers who say workers just serve coffee, just deliver packages, just stock shelves, just clean rooms, just prep food, or just check in guests, remember this, they keep our communities running every day. And when they’re on a picket line, you respect it.

Starbucks CEO Brian Niccol made $95 million last year. His workers are striking for the bare minimum. Glad to be on the right side of the picket line with them.

Pastor Jorge Bautista was telling a Border Patrol agent "we come in peace" when the agent fired toxic powder at him, leaving him struggling to breathe.

“No one should be assaulted for being out there protesting,” he says.

Not acknowledging World AIDS Day and engaging in COVID revisionism are straight from the eugenics playbook. One of the most effective ways of making people invisible is by erasing their history.

hey w how trad pub is likely going to be pulling back on books by marginalized authors, now more than ever, please get over whatever roadblock exists in your mind that keeps you from branching out to indie books. if the trad space starts to look dire soon (and it will), this is gonna be the solution

Finally divided up the leftovers from Thanksgiving into plates and I have dinner for the next 8 days. I put a chunk in the freezer, plated and covered, so I only need to thaw and reheat.

Reality-Based Leadership: Ditch The Drama, Restore Sanity to the Workplace, & Turn Excuses Into Results A book on business is far from my usual book of choice. I actually work in an office as part of my day job and supervise a team of six people. It's a lot of work, but I try to keep their goals easily achievable and let us be able to leave the work day without exhausting ourselves.

The other day a gas station tv tried to sell me cappuccino and mango flavored dip and I’ve never been more convinced that we’ve lost the mandate of heaven.
Little TV screens at the gas station pump blaring ads directly in your face as you spend $70 on a tank of gas is enough to radicalize a person

I want him to be so annoying that no contractors will touch it and when he does finally leave office there's still this massive demolished part of the white house. I want him to tear down more if it. I want him to go unhinged over this.
