The FDA has suddenly dropped a proposed rule to require asbestos testing in cosmetics.

The rule would've set up testing to identify cancer-causing asbestos in talc-containing products.

Contamination has repeatedly been found in talc-based cosmetics before.

This is called “chain refoulment” and it’s illegal under both U.S. and international law. And the State Department and ICE know very well what Ghana is doing and simply don’t care.
ICE deported a woman who owned a home in the US for 30 years. A judge banned ICE from deporting her to Sierra Leone where she had been tortured, so it deported her to Ghana, which kidnapped her and sent her back Sierra Leone anyway. ICE is part of this illegal conspiracy.

I guess if I found out someone had pirated one of my books I'd say, "Well, I'm never going to make a decent amount of money off of them anyway, so whatever"

Like, I get that times are tough all over and you do what you gotta to get by but don't expect me to be happy about it

This is a singleminded focus on bigoted scapegoating and punishment that only happens to justify atrocities. You can blame all my Holocaust education for me thinking this ain’t great.
this defies parody. also helps explain why Sec Bessent bizarrely blamed immigrants when confronted with a question about high beef prices

The point of playing a game of chess is not to achieve the quickest possible route to victory for one side in a chess game, it is to have and perform those thoughts and actions yourself and grow.

Thanks, Eryn. I have a wannabe teenage boy tearaway in this, and a deadbeat dad who also happens to be dead. Or is he? Completely?

However, please also: repost mutuals and those here tonight.

That whatever influence first taught him being A Man(TM) required he be that strong-silent-and-dying-inside type is still in his head and so entrenched he doesn't even notice it anymore. When he flinches at connection, is he setting boundaries or drinking poison another poured?

In my most recent release there's a character who subverts masculinity stereotypes and what the MC thinks men are all about.

And that leads to an outcome that some readers were not fans of lol

Q3. I'm doing what I can to answer everyone, and repost, so bear with me. So I don't keep you waiting, I'll throw out 3. Interpret this one how you like. I know many queer folks like me do not align masculinity with man shaped. And with horror, we love to subvert our tales.

Same, I don’t think I think about my characters’ genders so much. Unless I am genderbending an older story, tho it also gets complex if they’re trans.

Since my MCs are mostly ace, gender is also different for them bc they’re less concerned with attracting the opposite sex.

I try to remember that gender is inflicted on us, and try to consider whether for that individual it's turned out badly or not. Cis, Trans, Adjacent, I try not to fall into the trap of starting with gender and working outwards.

Hi #HorrorWritersChat! I write horror comedy (& other genres) as KA Silva. Every male character in my books tends to be in touch with their emotions, though whether they accept those, try to ignore them, or are led into conflict by them depends on the character & the story.
Here we go, #HorrorWritersChat!

Q1 has arrived. It's international men's day today, and I thought actually that's a good topic. Not the easiest one to build questions around, either. So if I do not hit the mark I am sure you will forgive me.
As usual, no links, no pitches, not till the end.

#HorrorWritersChat I'd like to think that my characters all think fairly similarly, but I think my masculine characters worry a bit more about keeping control and not panicking, whereas my feminine characters worry more about BEING controlled. They all have similar fears of loss, though.
