ICYDK, publishing is in a decline. Many authors who have had dependable contracts in the past are now scrambling to make ends meet and seeing lower advances and fewer sales than ever. If you see lots of book publicity posts, it's because we're scared and trying to keep our jobs during The Horrors.

Even if you're solidly Team Come At Me Bro, I'm Doing Nothing Illegal with the feds -- there are right-wing assholes who've "infiltrated" Signal chats, don't make it easy for them to send you 200 pizzas and a SWAT team. Use a pseud on Signal!
Use separate cars for rapid response and mutual aid. That one really is important

Don’t use your full legal name as your Signal display name. Assume your Signal chats are public & don’t talk about crimes or share sensitive info you wouldn’t want screenshotted by a reporter or read out loud in court

another great use of a blurred background for the subject. Simon is excellent at his bird photography
Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is #EyeContact.

Another of the Wandle cormorants today, on the Point Pleasant pilings, head on with those big green eyes.

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

This makes me think of one of the Farmer Riverworld books, where Goring teams up with a Roman Emperor to set up a slave state. I could see Homan joining them in a triumvirate
Homan's face is absolutely timeless, in the sense that it could belong to an SS commandant overseeing a "work camp," a Confederate captain gleefully selling free Black people into slavery, or a Roman centurion about to nail a guy named Jesus to a cross
Homan: "I begged for the last two months on TV for the rhetoric to stop. I said in March -- if the rhetoric doesn't stop, there is gonna be bloodshed. And there has been. I wish I wasn't right. I don't want to see anybody die."

New piece on ICE in Minnesota--and what they're doing in Maine when they think no one's looking.

I mean, feel free to unfollow me if I am insufficiently pure for you. Otherwise, unless one lives in a stick lean-to and drinks naught but pure rainwater, all any of us can do is choose what level of hypocrisy we live at and with. I wrote about this, in fact:

Lots of guest announcements to come starting with an author we love - Ruth Frances Long/ Jessica Thorne who writes romance and fantasy from the heart which often strays into weird and wonderful liminal places.

In the spirit of one like one line. In the spirit of one like/one line. I thought I'd try something a little different. For every heart this skeet gets I will will post a line or review from the Hornytown Chutzpah.

Thanks for the kind words @jolantru.bsky.social

The penalty for disrespecting the vehicle of a masked goon getting paid by taxpayers to kidnap children is death. You'll be restrained then shot in the back and the government will protect your killers.

That's the idea here.
Information that Alex Pretti kicked an ICE vehicle a week before he was killed is newsworthy but ultimately of little importance. In other words, yes, it should be reported, but so what?

I have over 20k followers. I’m pretty sure around 13k of those are bots/scammers.

I gave up blocking them as and when the followed months ago. I couldn’t keep up!

I have to say it really puts my off using this app regularly going forward. Anyone else experiencing this?

Anyway here are 4 images…
