Minaj is a Trinidad-born Black who admits immigrating without legal status and claims she isn’t even a U.S. citizen. Add her explicit lyrics, bareass outfits and performances that'd make Jeffrey Epstein blush... SHE’S PRACTICALLY THE WHOLE MAGA CULTURE WAR COMPLAINT DEPARTMENT WRAPPED IN FISHNETS.

I finished the final Hap & Leonard novel. It was bittersweet and I thought I was okay with it but @joerlansdale.bsky.social 's Author's Note made me cry. We don't really know the authors whose work we love but after 40 years or so they can start to feel like family. Much love to the Lansdales.

The Serpent of Venice, in which a diminutive fool named Pocket, with the help of a dragon and Marco Polo, solves the racism and antisemitism in The Merchant of Venice and Othello. $1.99 wherever you buy your ebooks.

All of this.

Everything I didn’t want to learn about covert narcissism: They must protect their delicate ego at all times. They continuously rewrite reality to keep their image of the so called“wounded healer”. They take pride in calling themselves an empath, saying they “feel everything“ 1/3

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.” ― F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby

Maybe it's just me, but if I dug into the sofa cushions and pulled out half a billion dollars, I'm reasonably sure I could find better things to do with it than bankroll fascist political candidates.

Got my hands on a copy of THE BEST MYSTERY STORIES OF THE YEAR that cites my story “The Devil’s Cut” from Hoosier Noir in the honorable mention category. Cool to be in such great company!

"...Trump’s rallies have become a slog as a sleepy president rambles pointlessly from one subject to another, like a musical act whose hit-making days are decades in the past..." Here in Las Vegas, they call these "residencies."

"This is the story again and again as Trump tours the redder parts of the country: The venues are smaller, the crowds are less excited, and the man at the podium is weirder." Good @paulwaldman.bsky.social piece at @atrupar.com's place (thx for citing Mahoning!) www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-rall...
