People hiding in the metro during the air strike on Monday, May 25th, 2023.
The explosions are heard throughout the whole city on this fine, sunny work day, after we all have been woken up by explosions at 4 am.
– If you don’t teach me, I’ll tell your parents and grandparents that you’re playing with something as dangerous as this. It’s very dangerous! Lethal and dangerous! I’ll tell them right away.
– Are you a primary school student? You want to tattle to your teacher?

You know what would make a GREAT plot twist? Fidelity.
And yes I mean in the context of romantic relationships, but not only in the context of romantic relationships. Or did AND ROHAN WILL ANSWER mean nothing to you?
After months of research and development and market testing and perfecting the first item I feel confident selling online, I have realized... that it is an incredibly niche item that only a specific subset of absolute nerds would want to buy, and I will have to do a ton of explaining the basic idea over and over again before people generally get what it is I'm even selling. RIP me
Long story short: I'm selling embroidery patterns. You stick them on fabric, embroider them, and wash the pattern away to leave your embroidery shining in solitary splendour.
Long story long... here goes.
I'm in Santa Fe so of course I went down to the picket line outside a local studio. George RR Martin was there too, and I got to see Paris, George's better half, as well. So was incredible author Nnedi Okorafor who had driven in from Arizona to be on the picket line.
George RR Martin is such a good supporter he's been on strike from writing his books for years.
Until the strike is over, anybody making this joke has to donate to the Entertainment Community Fund. I'm sorry. I don't make the rules.
My boyfriend made this joke yesterday. Today I saw this post and texted him a screenshot of it with the comment, "Neil Gaiman says your joke is bad and you should feel bad."
He texted back, "He said no such thing. He simply informed us of the rules." And then send a pic of his donation confirmation.
I had dinner with George tonight and informed him of the low-hanging joke and the rule. Your boyfriend is spot on.
Did you know that Humble Bundle currently has a bundle where you can get the entire Murderbots Diaries series in audio for only $20?

best advice i ever got as a writer was to pick a hobby that i hated more than writing and stick with it. i’m a runner now and it’s miserable and i Hate It and writing is so lovely in comparison. bonus: i’m in excellent shape and running gives you a lot of time to think about writing. i’ve solved a lot of plot complications while running.
This is such funny advice. Writing is so excruciating, you gotta take up Self Torture so that writing feels like a fun little break 😭
Are you struggling with being a writer? Well Have You Tried Poison Testing As A Hobby,

I wanna know your REACTION, your VIBE, I wanna know what you're FEELING, I wanna know how the post you reblog attacks you and your household specifically, i wanna know your birthrights and your guts and your will

excerpt:
After being entrusted to look after an underwater Shinto shrine, Hiroyuki Arakawa, 79, got to know the marine creatures that lived in the area. He started diving when he was 18.
Among the shrine’s residents is a female Asian sheepshead wrasse named Yoriko whom he became friends with about 30 years ago.
Whenever Arakawa dives to visit the shrine, all he needs to do is knock on metal, and Yoriko will be swimming toward him, Atlas Obscura said.
...At one point, when Yoriko was exhausted from struggling to find food, he fed her five crabs every day for 10 days. He also helped her on another occasion when she was badly injured.
For the priceless bond they’ve made, Arakawa couldn’t be more fulfilled.
“I have an amazing sense of accomplishment in my heart,” he said.
I can't stand it
