Getting fired for speaking out against racism is messed up.

The MSNBC commentator saying that most political violence has historically come from the left just once again showed how we suffer from failing to learn history. Lynching, pogroms, race riots, the political violence that ended Reconstruction, and against the Civil Rights Movement. Come on.

I pace the floors and talk to myself in-between writing scenes. I'm glad no one is around to watch me. Sometimes writing feels like having an argument with yourself.

It's always Black women saving the democratic party. What would they even do if they didn't have Black women who were actually committed to being public servants carrying their entire load & being treated like shit!

I deleted my Twitter last year, and recently got paranoid that someone would make a new one with my username. So I did it as a placeholder lol.

A drawing of my OC Eunicio, originally created in collaboration with my friend Hugo Damas. 
He is standing around a few dead trees with some sparse foliage growing up from their bases. 
we see him from his upper thigh on up, one hand held is holding a dandelion as be blows it's seeds and makes a silent wish to him self - the sun at his back.

NEW YORK (AP) β€” Television's MSNBC network is changing its name to My Source News Opinion World, or MS NOW for short.

Saying this again: there is a scammer out there targeting newbie authors, claiming I'm one of their clients. They use different names, and I'm already pursuing legal action. But I have never worked with a PR company, editing service, or book packager, so anybody saying so is lying, period full stop.

WHY are we still holding the #HugoAwards on some pedestal when we KNOW they censored Xiran Jay Zhao from the Lodestar list because the execs wanted to go to China?? or the fact that they nominate BIPOC but rarely win?? and then treated Kamilah Cole this way??

HUGO AWARDS DONT GIVE AF ABOUT BIPOC.
