This is an extremely interesting point i hadn't thought of esp in the days of eroding royalties for everyone (music, tv, etc) and is a gross aspect of "we shouldn't have to depend on this for healthcare/good conditions
I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

Charles Dickens was a real sonofabitch. You're still gonna watch any old A Christmas Carol adaptation.

‘One officer told me that I "had no chance of returning to Minnesota" and that "the best thing for (me] is self-deportation." …
She offered me $2600 to self-deport.
I refused.
I wanted to talk to my attorney.
They didn't tell me the judge had already ordered my release and return to Minnesota.’

I need everyone to know that on the crochet subreddit the mods made a big post about how they're taking a week off because there was too much fighting/political posts. so there's currently no mods on r/crochet and people are being absolutely insane

This is true. I’ve had a simple renewal application before DHS pending review for like four months.
Good. "But DHS isn't just ICE, it's also..." nope, wrong. DHS no longer serves any useful functions, the whole thing has been reassigned to repression. FEMA isn't even paying out to states. All DHS does is shooting, teargassing, facial recognition, and administrative warrants. Shut it down.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Thursday that demands made by Democrats for new restrictions on federal immigration officers are “unrealistic” and warned that the Department of Homeland Security will shut down next week if they do not work with Republicans and the White House.

Sir Ian McKellen performing a monologue from Shakespeare’s Sir Thomas More on the Stephen Colbert show. Never have I heard this monologue performed with such a keen sense of prescience. Nor have I ever been in this exact historical moment.TY Sir Ian, for reaching us once again.

Seeing lots of people dig this goofy thing is a welcome reminder that, if I feel like doing something fun and silly, I probably should

Maybe you should too!

Treasury Secretary saying out loud the government has the right to kill you for doing 2nd Amendment things -- fears about which, if I remember correctly, triggered an explosion of militia recruitment across the US in the 90s. Also a real explosion at federal building in OK.
VAN HOLLEN: You suggested Alex Pretti was culpable for his own killing because he had a gun he was licensed to carry. Would you like to retract that statement?

BESSENT: I would not. Would you like to express remorse over the death of Ashli Babbitt here in the Capitol?

Asimov's actions, and the tolerance-up-to-celebration of it, absolutely drove women out of field and out of fandom, and made it easier for others in the field, writers, editors and fans, to follow his lead for decades. Asimov pinching asses was not about his work. It kept women and their work out.

In early Y2k in the SD goth club community it was openly known that Gaiman would go home with young goth fangirls, which in the groupie mindset was very normalized. When you're young, you don't think about power imbalance. Someone in our clique came home one day and there was Gaiman on the couch.
Folks outside SF/F don't know that Asimov was a sexual harasser because while he was alive fandom thought it was cute (up to and including Asimov being invited to give a lecture on "The Power of Positive Posterior Pinching" at Worldcon, which he, wisely, declined).

Saw some "Y'all are suckers for believing anything Bannon says" takes yesterday, but wouldn't you rather deal with this fascism thing with your eyes wide open? Aren't we sick of surprises by now.
Breaking:

The White House press secretary just said she "can't guarantee" that ICE won't be around polling locations in November.
