Black Friday thread.

I'm not big in the market, and while I was active a good year I have to admit The Bad Place we just left wasn't great for boosting my work. SO! Some places where you can get my work.

We've got politics, D&D, and collectables.

Everyone knows data centers use a ton of water.

What hardly anyone knows: they can poison the water that remains.

And in eastern Oregon, Amazon is doing exactly that.

I remember several occasions I've talked about this and people straight up thought I was making it up or even accusing me of "misremembering".

Now one of the last know survivors of that terrorist attack has passed away and the story fades along with her.
The first time terrorists used planes to attack Americans wasn’t on 9/11 or at Pearl Harbor. It was the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 when white supremacists flew a dozen planes to drop turpentine or nitroglycerin bombs on Black Americans.

Viola Fletcher was there.

Viola Fletcher, Among Last Known Survivors of Tulsa Race Massacre, Dies at 111
Mother Fletcher's legacy will live on as the epitome of honor, courage, strength, and resilience in the face of violent terrorism, white supremacy, and cowardice

The Labor Party in England is now proposing to get rid of almost all jury trials in England to make the criminal punishment bureaucracy more efficient. This should be a warning for us all. Neoliberals are walking us into the waiting arms of authoritarians.

We’re about to invade Venezuela because trump wants their oil. No other reason. The airspace has been cleared. Embassies are being evacuated. Flights are being canceled.

Woah!

Ontario passed a law starting Jan 2026 that it is illegal for companies to ghost you.

If you have interviewed for a job they are legally required to inform you if they hire someone else or close the position.

The law also requires salary transparency on listings and disclosing use of AI

And look, I get it. I have many many times been the writer saying "just write" "have your specs ready" "write and write and write" but right now, in the current state of the industry, repeating that insistence over and over to a DROWNING generation of young writers is super unfair.

For most of us we've written our specs. We've written MANY. We have great samples. We have good feedback. We KEEP WRITING. The problem? No one is reading.

Rooms will not read lower levels. As such, agents will not read us because they can not get us work. We're writing specs for an army of one.

My dog of 16 years had to be put down this week. It’s been 48 hours and I’m still spontaneously crying.

A client of 7 years of this family also chose to end treatment this week, 98 years old and tired of the pain. He went very quickly.

2025 continues to frelling suck.

Behind this important reversal is a member of the Coast Guard who saw what was happening and had the courage to leak it to the press. That person deserves serious praise.

Breaking character: I am open to the idea the media's coverage of Biden's age and mental acuity was fair or perhaps not even tough enough. But the fact that it was so much tougher than the coverage of Trump's (more severe) mental decline is damning and I can't see how anyone could argue otherwise.

Literally none of the economic issues we face are due to undocumented immigrants.

Meanwhile, this is verbatim Nazi propaganda being pushed out by the US Dept of Homeland Security.

The Trump regime is a fully fascist regime. They're not attempting to hide it in any capacity. This is who they are.

This is what systemic white supremacy looks like. Trump is building a Nationalist Christian (Nat-C) state to violently stifle dissent.
