If you're phone shy, the evening is a pretty great time to call your US rep. You'll get a machine and can leave a message.

No romance author should EVER ignore this. I don't care if you think you're different from porn, throwing porn under the bus only greases its wheels so it can run you over next. If you write ANYTHING but very bland cishet romance you're first in line. But it will hit you eventually either way.

Hey! Remember Republicans saying "Obamacare will make death panels to kill your grandma!"? Then you should probably go check out chapter 14 of the Project 2025 manifesto. Because every Conservative/Republican accusation is a confession.

Just called my rep AGAIN to tell them to sign onto this. Every D in the House should be a cosponsor. Yes, it won't pass the R-controlled House, but we have to make this an issue.
Please feel free to call your own rep if you feel similarly! You can find them here: www.house.gov/representati...

Project 2025 includes the call to “outlaw” porn. If you want to understand what they mean by that? Look to what these groups are already fighting “porn,” and their connections to anti-gender movements outside the US. I start that analysis here:

The fatigue is indescribable. I used to finish every book at 5 am, just blasting through because that sweet, sweet triumph of finishing the draft made me teflon. It’s as if this LC fatigue throttles my desire to write, like it carries with it a dark cloud of apathy. For me, that’s the worst.

This part. I see a lot in Joe Biden that I wish I saw in more elder peach-complected USians. I've watched him grow and learn and change my whole life. Nobody gets an excuse. He's given you the map. He doesn't get it perfect every time, but he keeps trying to get it right.

Project 2025's policies don't make "the family" the centerpiece of American life. They make the right-wing Evangelical movement the centerpiece of every American's private life, placing the federal government squarely in your bed, your book shelf, your closet, your phone, and your doctor's office.

If Trump has “no idea” who the authors behind Project 2025 are, he’s showing an alarming cognitive decline. He appointed most of them to roles in his administration! Project 2025 is, in short, the plan to implement what Donald Trump has said he wants to do if he’s reelected.

Le Pen's party (RN) got 143 seats. While a record, that's far (very far) from the 289 they hoped for to govern. How?! Hundreds of Left & Macronist candidates dropped out to help each other block the RN. And millions of voters then voted strategically to get that job done.

The lesson that we Americans must learn from France is this: You GO OUT, VOTE IN LARGE NUMBERS, VOTE STRATEGICALLY, VOTE WITH BRAIN, YOU SUCCEED & WIN! Period. End of story. Is the French Left-wing coalition perfect? No, by a mile, but it’s a HELL OF LOT BETTER than the Neo-Nazis in suits & ties.
