Crucially, by upholding their constitution and the rule of law, Brazil discovered that support for Bolsonaro evaporated save for a dwindling minority of die-hards and dead-enders. Because Brazilians see Bolsonaro as a criminal and a loser, they've largely moved on from him.

Cruelty in the name of virtue is still cruelty.

Injustice in the name of justice is still injustice.

There's a lot of "good people" out there who will do evil things to others and justify it to themselves.

These are the same people who would watch Wicked and miss the point entirely.

Y'know, if you want to lie about me and my character, at least be an adult and do it to my face and not like a middle schooler spreading rumors in the hall.

Ironically, what they're planning to do, including coordinated political outfits etc, is actually against the rules of Disneyland so they might not be allowed in!

Moved a LOT of stuff out of my living room into my old room so we can have more of a cleared space for guests on Thursday.
...I need to order more storage bins and maybe need to start downsizing parts of my collection

In the face of massive antisemitism, too many people are either cowards or hypocrites, and too few stand up against it.

Got another email from SDCC, this time regarding small press/artist alley.

Wait listed. TBH, I rather just walk around vs deal with the logistics and being chained to a table.

So i'll still see you in San Diego! No tables! No masters!

Past #SDCC goers, any advice/suggestions re: hotels on offer for the Early Bird sale (or should I wait for the general sale?)
November 18, 2025 at 6:40 PM
I have a concept for what I think would be a fun Red Hood and the Outlaws book...but I doubt DC would even sniff at me long enough to pitch it. ^^;
November 18, 2025 at 12:09 PM
I'm really excited about going to #SDCC for the first time next year, and that I'm bringing friends from all over with me to enjoy it!

Also, VERY anxious! I have to do my best networking, etc. (Plus I'm not prepared at all for Hotelpocolypse)

Please let the SDCC hotel lottery be on a weekend...Im usually so swamped at work that them doing it on a weekday would be insane :(
