If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before)

Ok so if you're still using Spotify I highly suggest you stop
(Personally I use Qobuz for streaming convenience but buy the mp3 from bandcamp if possible and from retailers if not)
Bandcamp has a strong anti ai policy and is committed to artists

In April 2024, Spotify implemented a new scheme: songs with less than 1k streams per year would no longer receive royalties.
The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.
Read it again: 88% of songs on Spotify have been demonetized.

Woah, this is news to me!
Hey, peeps! My very first book is currently on sale for just 2 bucks! Both the eBook AND the hardcover, apparently? It's about a tea specialist-turned-assassin who embarks on an epic quest to rescue her kidnapped sibling... in SPACE.
Also HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Every time someone says "I can't write X, editors will never buy it" an angel loses its wings
Those shining adamantine feathers, sharper than death, slice all creatures in their path to molecule-thin ribbons, blood raining down onto acres of land rendered poisonous for decades.
So maybe reconsider

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.
