If you want a lesson to take away from the past few days: we are now living under an authoritarian regime where you need to be extremely careful what you say on public-facing platforms.

Remember, you don't actually have rights, and the Constitution is a piece of parchment that will not protect you.

The police will call you about photos you post to private chats. They will do this almost immediately, it seems www.kenklippenstein.com/p/charlie-ki...

I’m thrilled to make an appearance in the latest episode of “SpongeBob SquarePants” (I play I.M. Poster, the pirate who sings the slightly altered theme song in “Bizarro Bottom”)!

rarely have I more acutely felt the dynamic by which Dems are held responsible for the rhetoric of every random left-leaning person on the internet and Republicans are not even asked to answer for their own personal words

I have no idea what white people are talking about right now. The warnings that the fascists will "use this" to do more violence. WHAT WON'T THEY USE? You've watched them deploy the US military on US soil using bullshit pretexts. What even are you talking about?

Regarding recent events, as an attorney, I would advise everyone to be very careful what you post on public-facing social media in this current political environment.

I imagine that things are going to get really ugly if Charlie Kirk is in fact dead.

Here’s my handsome snippet of the cover art for The Wideness of the World, an upcoming anthology from @tfpublishing.bsky.social.

Inside, you’ll find my story “The King’s Emissary” — a tale of intrigue, diplomacy, and dangerous desires set in Safavid Persia.

I can’t wait for y'all to read it! 🥰

This would've been a daily stormer thread a decade ago. Neo-nazi conspiracy theories are mainstream now.

In the words of Nelson Mandela: it always seems impossible until it’s done.

My friends, it is done. And you are the ones who did it.

I am honored to be your Democratic nominee for the Mayor of New York City.

Every time I see someone attempting to justify federal agents acting in a capricious and tyrannical manner against citizens by weaponizing the phrase "no one is above the law," I'm reminded of this quote from Peru's former authorarian ruler.

The fact that Shiloh Hendrix—an unabashed racist with no qualms about hurling racial slurs at young children on a fucking playground—has earned a little over three-and-a-half times my annual salary in less than two days as a reward for being a monstrous racist makes me just...

Bought this beautiful brooch today from a scrap jewelry dealer! It's 18k gold with rubies and diamonds and I believe it was made in the 1950s. 💎
