They/them. An ace, agender, autistic fren-shaped person. Owned by three cats. And a Roomba with googly eyes. I'll post pictures eventually.

THE KEEPER OF LONELY SPIRITS is eligible for a Hugo, a Locus, and a Nebula, so consider it if you're a person who gets to nominate for those awards, pretty please?

THE LORD OF THE WOOD releases in July, so add that to a TBR now!

Talked about my work in audiobooks with a family member and just found out that he asked my sister if she knows who “Charles Tingle” is

I also like fucked-up, weird horror.

I like action-packed bloody adventures.

I like traumatic backstories and revenge.

I like reading about merciless assassins finding family, tenderness, even love with their fellow merciless assassins.

I like epic space battles.

I like a lot of stuff.

I like cozy fiction.

Cozy as in we spend a lot of time getting to know the characters in lower-stress situations between the action.

Cozy as in we know we won’t see gory violence or sexual assault.

Cozy as in the lesbians snuggle. They kiss. They fuck. They get an HEA.

Cozy, not toothless.

Unhinged Hazbin Hotel theory. No serious spoilers for S2. What if the daughter Carmilla lost is somehow (think amnesia and perhaps an earlier redemption) Vaggi? What if Vaggi saved her sisters and was redeemed? What if Carmilla knows somehow and that's why she keeps helping them?

My parents: *Encouraging young me to read all the books and think critically*
Also, my parents: "How did you turn out to be such a heathen commie? We didn't raise you this way!"

Also, I realise it is Thanksgiving in the US- virtual hugs to all the children of similarly bewildered parents.

While we're giving thanks ...

If you pick up a book by an indie trans author, they'll be thankful for the sale, while you'll be thankful for a good read!
On that note:

Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.

Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.

Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo
Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"

So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?

When Imari accidentally runs into her childhood friend Cassidy at a fall festival she is shocked to find out that Cassidy has grown up into a sexy af butch. Imari is bi but she has never been with a woman but can't deny the growing chemistry between them. is.gd/bjElfS #wlwbooks #fallreads

Australia recorded ZERO cases of cervical cancer in women under 25 for the first time since they started tracking the cancer in the 80s.

This is the power of vaccines.

The HPV vaccine is extremely effective at preventing cancer.

Viruses can be oncogenic. Get your vaccines and protect yourself!
newsGP - Australia set for world-first cervical cancer elimination
Vaccination programs have played a key role, and GPs remain ‘instrumental’ in boosting screening rates to reach the 2035 target.

This makes me even more rageful that a friend just had to pay $800 because her insurance denied coverage of her 19 year old's HPV vaccine, claiming that it is no longer recommended. Appeals were denied. I can only assume RFK Jr had something to do with this???
This is wonderful news, and also means it’s time for me to beat the drum I always do when HPV vaccines make the news:

They are not only for women! HPV also causes penile, anal, and head and neck cancers. The latter are particularly deadly. Please vaccinate ALL your children.

Okay. I'm not going to lie. After the...words are failing me right now...we'll go with *last* for now...season of Umbrella Academy, I was *very* concerned about the last season of Stranger Things. Sure, it's only half over, but it's already amazing enough there's no way it can...equal...that.

So I've actually found TWO foods today that Rangi will not eat: Celery and frozen cranberries (he eats dried ones, ask me how I know...).

you will note here that the term used is “ape” instead of “monkey” because nobody is actually stupid enough to use the latter term around the Librarian

Discworld QOTD, from Interesting Times

“‘Am I alone in thinking, by the way, that it doesn’t add to the status of the University to have an ape on the faculty?’

‘Yes,’ said Ridcully flatly. ‘You are. We’ve got the only librarian who can rip off your arm with his leg. People respect that.’”

I have discovered a food that Rangi will not even try. Feel free to guess in the comments. For the record, he *did* try the raw potatoes. (Didn't like 'em, but tried 'em.)

Wesley will give up purely on vibes. Unfavorable weather, lost socks, burned coffee. Call the whole thing off.

Fortunately Kenzie and Owen keep the plot rolling no matter what: setbacks, losses, collateral damage, and divine intervention be damned.

For Max, I'd like to say it would never endangering or harming his sister, but we both know his addiction to magic goes beyond that...

For Lyle, it would be death itself and he's on a timeline here!
