The best match last night. More please!
A high stakes Mixed Tag Match went off the rails immediately when the team of "Timeless" Toni Storm + Orange Cassidy faced Marina Shafir + Wheeler Yuta with the loser of the fall getting their head shaved!

This winter Ive observed 2 types of ppl: those who put their head down & trudge thru 10in of snow to reach the door to their bldg & those who pause to look around for a sec, identify a path already shoveled by someone else, & take the couple extra mins to walk the longer but clear way to the door. 🤔

Anyway, the place where I am coming from whenever I write anything, anywhere is: we can live better than this, but that requires the will to change. The universe is too fucking fabulous for us to only know it through capitalism and white supremacy. That's what my posts and books are always about.

"The Nightmare Box" is still one of my favorite stories of my own, and definitely one of the many ACAB stories in this book.
The titular story of The Nightmare Box and Other Stories explores a government program's supernatural efforts to suppress the Black Panther Party, and a mercenary witch's decision to either be complicit for $ or follow her moral conscience.
