A black and white tuxedo cat with bright yellow eyes is hiding playfully under a piece of crinkled brown packing paper. The cat’s wide eyes and forward-leaning posture make it look like he’s clearly having fun.

One look and you know he’s having fun :3

Why do you appreciate unions?

I’ll start:

Weekends off
Paid vacations
Work breaks
Sick leave
Paid holidays
No child labor
Safer working conditions
Health care and retirement benefits

Wait, wait, wait, so the drugs that help people (myself included) with mental illnesses are the problem? Explain to me in what world that makes sense.

As always, the guns are the problem, neo-Nazism is the problem, people being untreated for mental illness is the problem. Let’s be smart here.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game.

The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

The biggest divide is not between β€œright” and β€œleft."

It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.

I have a feeling that promoting my debut novel would be a lot easier if I was β€œcool”. I haven’t really started yet and I know it’s going to be an additional challenge. Nothing I’m not up for! Being β€œuncool” is something I have a looooot of experience with ;)

Want to help your favorite authors? There are lots of ways!
--buy the book
--borrow the book
--talk about the book to friends, booksellers, librarians
--REVIEW THE BOOK! Even as simple as "I loved it!" is helpful on sites like Amazon (has to do with the algorithm, which is beyond me...) #BookSky

There’s renewable energy ads and there’s mother**cking wind farm ads. This, blissfully, is the latter.

Etymology of the day: spiders were once known as β€˜attercops’, or β€˜poison-heads’, because it was believed most spiders were venomous. The β€˜cop’ element became the β€˜cob’ in β€˜cobweb’.

I expect that consumer-facing AI programs will continue to improve and they may become much more useful tools for everyday life in the future.

But I think it was a disastrous mistake that today’s models were taught to be convincing before they were taught to be right.

Jonathan Joss was Comanche and Apache and an openly gay actor.

He was murdered while looking at the remains of his dogs at his own house that was burnt down.

The killer yelled homophobic slurs before shooting him.

This is the real world consequences of the hatred that the right commodifies
