Shout out to the Denver Tool Library because this WOULD have cost me $5000 to make if I had to buy all the tools for it, but instead I paid $150 for a membership and borrowed six separate saws (depending on what you count as a saw), two sanders, and everything from tile trowels to squeezy clamps.
This is so pretty!!!!
Aw. Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it.
These bundles are amazing, and supporting them would mean more money in the pockets of queer creators!

It’s been a minute Skyfriends. But I have been in the woods and then at the #HNSVegas conference, which was really fun. Anyone who writes historical fiction would have an absolute blast. Here is me and other Paper Lantern Writers, Ana Brazil and Vanitha Sankaran.
It’s so pretty! 🤩

This baby is in the world!
If you have ever written historical fiction, wanted to write it but felt intimidated, got hung up on research, this can help! Already called a “a true gem,” this is excellent for old hands and new. Available digital & paperback, wherever books are sold. #booksky
This is such bullshit. The fucking audacity of this worm-ridden idiot. I'm absolutely livid. He needs to such his stupid mouth and rest those diseased vocal cords.

Blue background. At the top is two images: one of the Bronte sisters and the other of Jane Austen. Below the images it says, "You know how interesting the purchase of a sponge-cake is to me." Below it it says, "Jane Austen to her sister Cassandra."
Who doesn't like a good sponge-cake? Especially with cream and fresh strawberries! #JaneAusten

How will things go when they have all your data and cc info and access to you when things get worse?
Because they will.
Need an ADHD heroine who has to BE OUTSIDE to think? How about a neurotypical hero who thinks she is too small to be out climbing in the Alps?

What is this? It’s a threat to all employees.
It sure looks like the EO is trying to give OPM the authority to determine any employee’s suitability.
That is- if OPM deems an employee as not suitable they could make employment decisions without following civil service protections and due process.
They used seven of my books. I posted on the Meta platforms too, saying that I never authorized this, and if my intellectual property is helping train AI, then I should be getting paid what they pay their software engineers.
Yes. Always. I even scout real estate options.
The Trump administration has terminated a U.S.-funded initiative that documents alleged Russian war crimes, including a sensitive database detailing the mass deportation of Ukrainian children to Russia, according to U.S. officials.
It’s giving Stalin.
It’s giving Pinochet.
And I helped!

Hey, Idaho federal employees! Melissa Davlin with Idaho Reports wants to hear from you:
I'm hoping to speak to federal workers in Idaho who were fired last week. I'm working on something for Idaho Reports. USFS, BLM, USDA, whatever agency. You can reach me on Signal: melissadavlin.33.
Wealthy and/or Rich ≠ Smart OR Good
First they came for the federal employees,
And I did not speak out,
Because I was not a federal employee
...
You know the rest of the poem.
Act accordingly.
This is beyond horrific.
Is there anything we can do to push back?
