Some big writing news: my debut novel, VENUE 13, will be published by Ravenstone in 2026!

Read the official announcement here: www.turnstonepress.com/news/in-the-...
I'm glad yours finally arrived! If you are interested in posting about it after you've used it, I'd be interested to hear what you think. (I do most of my writing on my laptop.... but have been thinking about ways to avoid distractions, too.)

I had never heard of these! And now I want one....

When Fascism came to America, no one crawled on their bellies and kissed the boot more willingly than those who once defiantly shouted "Don't Tread On Me!"

This is a really good read.
For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention.

The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
Opinion | I'm a Minneapolis sociologist who studies violence. Here's how ICE observers are helping.
Research into how violence occurs shows that disapproval from the people around you can help reduce it.

1. Respect to folks in their differing tolerances of cold. (I, a Manitoban, was unprepared for what "cold" felt like along the North Atlantic)
2. *rolls dice*
3. Successfully made my "Avoid Going Full Four Yorkshiremen" saving throw, everybody relax
Minneapolis has seemed like a lovely place full of lovely people the few times I’ve been there but man oh man I have cured myself of the notion of thinking about moving there at some point, we are only in day 2 of this cold snap and I want to fucking die

Hence the tired "paid protesters!" line, I bet. "No one would *volunteer* to show up and defend strangers in their community! NO ONE"

The terror campaign in Minneapolis is almost certainly going to backfire in so many ways but I think one major way is that after it, LA, Chicago, and Charlotte, they’ve blown what shock-and-awe advantage they had and people all over are getting organized on a level they were absolutely not ready for

There was a comment I saw earlier that observed the atomization inherent in driving certain folks to join these terrorizing forces was showing others what community can do, and reading your comment, I also think this emerging solidarity terrifies those would-be terrorizers.

Last month I tried using sourdough starter instead of active dry yeast to make Icelandic brown bread and it worked wonderfully.
January 16, 2026 at 4:58 PM
I have only been making sourdough for a little bit but I have been wondering about attempting this!

Awesome! Nobel peace be with you, Jen.

Let's be honest: our timelines all probably need this today
When your worlds collide.

Bassets now come in goth.

I've been trying to figure out why I don't like using it and I think you've both articulated it better than I can.

Hey can you award me a Novel Peace Prize too? After that I'm going to try to get a Stanley Cup.

Wins the internet this week and it's not even close
I was thinking about that 1980s James Bond movie where everybody's trying to get their hands on a Fabergé egg for some reason

And then I realized:

It's an Egg McGuffin.

"No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to ... fry."

This is beautiful and amazing. I think it turned out wonderfully!

Also: when we are so bogged down in the endless grind of "getting through the week" I think not having time to make things for fun is such a huge loss.
January 16, 2026 at 2:02 AM
I think this is absolutely marvelous, and it reaffirms my belief that making something by hand is a joy in itself, on top of the generosity of making something and giving it to someone else.
After probably over a year, mere HOURS before @ktsimpson.bsky.social 's arrival, I have FINISHED the book sleeve I promised her ages ago.

It is not perfect.

But it certainly turned out better than all the times I thought, "well this'll never work."

As happens every time I crochet / sew a thing.

I love “Swept Downstream” - it’s the kind of story that gets me every time. 🖤🖤🖤

No spoilers here. You’ll have to read it for yourself!!! 📚😱
