So it sounds like you'd be better off setting your money on fire than donating to a candidate campaign at this point. π¬
We found that as of right now 73% of your campaign donation goes back to the consultants and vendors (!!!), four times more than just 20 years ago. Only 13% to ads. Even I was shocked.

Please donβt trust the polls, yβall. They have been inaccurate AF way too often. Vote like we are 3% down in every race and we need every single vote to pull out a win. Bc I fear that may be more accurate. Vote like your life + liberty depend on it. Come hell or high water, get to the ballot box.

If you did something amazing today, I'm proud of you. If you went to work today, I'm proud of you. If you took a shower, I'm proud of you. If you did some laundry, I'm proud of you. If you got out of bed, I'm proud of you. And if all you did was make it through another day, I'm still proud of you.οΏΌ

As noted by @attenuated.bsky.social, Villain (Hench Series Book 2) by @nataliezed.bsky.social, is on US ebook sale for $3; I got some for random giveaway.
Don't know if you've noticed but Natalie Zina Walschots' Villain is on sale for $3 at ebook retailers. Already grabbed myself a copy but figured you might like to know!

This, this, this, this, this.
From everything I've seen, an LLM is a combination of a search engine, autocomplete, and mansplainer. It throws together the first information it finds and presents that as fact. The only way it's even close to being human is it has a techbro's irritating habit of being confidently wrong.

I know writers who use subtext and they're all cowards.

With the uptick in ICE activity & the resulting surge in whistle requests (get 100-3k free at 3dwhistles.com), I'm reminding folks that you can support the printing of whistles by giving $20 to @protopasta.bsky.social, who in turn sends DEEPLY DISCOUNTED filament to our printers!

Hey folks! @yellowfund.bsky.social is taking their bus down to the coast to make sure those who lost power/cars/homes in the hurricane have hot food, non perishables, diapers, and wipes. If you want to help you can do so here: action.yellowhammerfund.org/a/hurricane-...

My cousin organized a series of masked concerts in NYC so immunocompromised and other covid-conscious folks can still enjoy live music events, and is raising funds so he can keep doing so! Love and appreciation to anyone able to chip in ππΎβ₯οΈ www.kickstarter.com/projects/pos...

We will probably be closing the shop again tonight before the tropical storm runs in, so now is your best chance to grab some stuff! πππ
Pssst, the shop is briefly open and we've got TWO sales going on! Sale #1: to celebrate the launch of our first seasonal items and just for funsies, almost everything is 25% off. Sale #2: the stuff that isn't 25% off is 50% off because we have some clearance stuff I need to get rid of!
