BREAKING:

CDC rescinds “flared base” recommendation, saying users should be able to go to the ER to have objects removed if they wish.

“This administration will not be cowed by woke rhetoric about what is and isn’t safe to insert in your anus.”

Maybe if we offer him a Nobel peace prize to get out of office he’ll take it.

We can all want the same things. But if we all want to eat and one of us chooses to give all the food to someone who has already been fed in excess, that one person is a traitor to those of us who starve.

All I want for Christmas is dead Nazis. If that upset you, you must be one of those Nazis.

Word count #WeeklyUpdate!

Finally managed to beat (more than meet) my weekly goal! Over 10k words this week! Might have to slow down with the holidays coming up again, but finally hitting a good pace.

They want your money, and they want you dead. That’s this whole administration in a nutshell.

I did it! ✋✋
Give yourself a high five if you wrote a book this year.

You did great!

I’ve never been more excited than I am to here “Portrait of God” is getting a feature adaptation! Genuinely the best horror short film ever made and can’t wait for more of it! #horror #shortfilm #portraitofgod

Hi! I’m Connor, and I write queer horror! My first novel “Patient No. 8” debuted back in July. It’s a psychological horror book about gay conversion therapy. My second novel “Looney Lynda Darcey” is a slasher about learning to accept yourself in a world that won’t. It releases 2026! #booksky

AI will never kill artists for the same reason microwaves will never kill chefs.

I've never understood the argument that being LGBTQ+ is a choice, because:

1. It very obviously isn't
2. Even if it was, so what?

Less progress on this word count #weeklyupdate on account of the Holiday. Didn’t hit the 8k goal, but got around 6k unless my math is bad. Next week will be hitting the ground running again.

Do people still do Black Friday? Have we not realized it’s a complete scam yet?

Not the queer friendship in #StrangerThings making me ugly cry

Gotta say, the gays are slaying this season of #StrangerThings

If you ever feel like you’re bad at marketing or graphic design, I present to you a banner currently on the outside of the Asheville Mall where they forgot to put the “Tree” at the end of their call to action. Great Job. No notes.

The only reason anyone would be upset about reminding our troops they can and should disobey unlawful orders is if they were planning to give unlawful orders. Please let that sink in and realize how horrifying that sounds.

She is watching and stalking her prey!
"Looney Lynda Darcey" releases in 2026 and brings a new face to the slasher genre. Inspired by gruesome classics like "Friday the 13th" and otherworldly sci-fi like "Stranger Things," Lynda brings blood and madness to the page!

Word count #WeeklyUpdate! Sitting at just over 16K, so meeting my goals, but not going as strong as I’d have hoped. Will be trying some new things next week to get the ball rolling a little quicker. #booksky #indieauthor
