Hey guys. This is important. My friend needs to pay 30% of her surgery costs up front or they're canceling the procedure. Her husband's income is affected by the government shutdown. I know we're all strapped but can I get a share? Donations would be a huge help.

- Brains (no prions for me thanks)
- Epic Movie (and any of the others in that vein)
- Pink Pony Club

Introduce yourself using only one food you refuse to eat, one movie you’ll never watch again, & one song you can’t stand:

- Cucumber anything. However you think it tastes, that is not how it tastes to me
- Farewell, My Concubine (Beautiful. Brutal. Once was enough)
- Collective Soul, “December”

What I love most about BNHA is its unflinching sincerity.

I'm kind of joking but also totally not. If y'all like short fiction and essays and helping me afford vet bills, maybe think of joining my Patreon.

This little nugget is making friends at the vet. Now everybody cross your fingers that he can get his dental scheduled before March.

My battered copy of The Twisted Ones now holds an even greater place of honor on my shelf. So great meeting @tkingfisher.com who is every bit as delightful in person as you'd expect.

despair is one of fascism's favorite weapons because fascism often projects more power than it has. the only way to actually keep people in line that way is to crush their spirit so much that they feel that fighting back is pointless. hence shock and awe, hence state terrorism, hence the cruelty
