Self-published books are amazing.
Their quality, value, and diversity are excellent.

I am an AI hater. This is considered rude, but I do not care, because I am a hater.

Either you understand that there is an organized campaign to push trans people out of public life with the explicit end goal of "morally mandating us out of existence" that is backed by some of the wealthiest individuals to have ever lived, or you're simply not equipped to grasp what's happening.

One night in Arda makes a Dark Lord humble

I proudly fight The War On Christmas because Elf on the Shelf is like 10 years old but people act like it is an old tradition. Its creepy, wrong, and 100% responsible for the growing acceptance of a militarized surveillance state.
