It's been fantastic to see Asian inspired fantasy works becoming more popular in Anglophone media, we may need to reconsider how some concepts have been represented. On fairies and China: snowpavilion.co.uk/fairies-in-c... #culture

I live in a neighborhood that loves to bang and boom for a couple of weeks on either end of the 4th. It's the toughest stretch of time for my pup 😔

The thing I can't stop thinking about is this: I'm 48, and in my adult lifetime there has been one Republican who won the popular vote. But I will probably spend the rest of my life under the authority of a Supreme Court dominated by hard right conservatives. How is that democracy?

this illustrates why I think they actually need to just get Biden on TV all the time right now this version of him isn't as smooth as he used to be but it's totally fine - he's there, he's engaged, he can do the job "I had a cold, lemme tell some self deprecating jokes and shit on Trump"

Sure, Democrats are the lesser of two evils. But that gap in evil helps promote LGBTQ rights, climate action, clean air, abortion rights, science (not religion) in schools, and much more.

What about beans? They come from a flower but are considered a legume. Is everything I believed a lie?? 😆

The Democratic Party’s reaction to their candidate having a bad debate substantially outpaces the Republican Party’s reaction to their candidate being convicted of multiple felonies, held liable for rape, and owing judgments in the hundreds of millions for defamation and fraud.

*Eyes publisher implosion situation* Ooph. Well, we don’t owe our authors lots of $$$, don’t charge our authors for book production/edits and are an all human, all the time shop. We are also funded through book sales and our publisher’s Patreon so buying a book or two today would be great! 🏳️🌈

There is no fucking way I am watching the debate tonight. I've known who I am voting for since 2020, and I'm certainly not going to subject myself to 90 minutes (or whatever) of watching a bilious orange turd fulminate incoherent fascism. If something truly memorable happens, I imagine I'll be told.

Maybe this is the secret reason why conservatives keep trying to ban them. Also? No one can track you when you're reading a book. Are you in a hammock? On a blanket at the beach? Your couch? Reading the first book on the stack? The fifth? The tenth? NO ONE CAN KNOW!

Ohioans, today is a good day to check to see if you are still registered to vote in our state. And if you are not, or if you haven't registered yet, today is also a very good day to do so.

They’re not “gifts.” They’re bribes. Clarence Thomas took $4 million in bribes from billionaires. Everyone understands this, and yet he still holds a lifetime position as one of the most powerful people in our country. Unrig the Supreme Court.

It’s not inflation, it’s corporate greed.
“Some firms seem to have used rising costs as an opportunity to further hike prices to increase their profits, and profits remain elevated even as supply chain pressures have eased,” the report read.
