Hey romancelandia and fandom peeps! If you live in the U.S. right now you should know that KOSA (along with a slew of censorship bills) are advancing through congress right now. If you care about spicy books and/or fanfiction you should contact your reps right now and tell them to vote NO on KOSA!

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.
Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.
This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵

Spotify is garbage on every count: Its treatment of artists, its ICE advertising, the CEO's investment in military AI, its leading role in the commodification and AI slopification of music, its terrible audio quality—you name it.
So I quit, and put together a complete guide to getting off Spotify:

i have never received a penny for the music i have on spotify (which wasn't even uploaded by me so i don't even have the ability to take it down). this is not a joke. i would rather happily let you download my shit directly from my harddrive on soulseek than you listen to it on spotify
If you can't justify the cost/inconvenience of buying the music you listen to, fr just pirate it. It's not any worse than Spotify.

Disappointed to see this. 160 union workers are fighting for a fair contract at Individualized Shirts, a US factory that makes high-end men's button-ups. The managers there have rejected the union's request for fair wages and health insurance. The union is asking for support 🧵

I'm at the Target boycott, I'm at the Starbucks boycott, I'm at the combination Target boycott and Starbucks boycott
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets.
no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

New blog post. I love being a working artist but I do not love the rampant exploitation that has become a feature of art industries. Artists deserve better.

I don't qualify for SNAP because they think I make too much money (even though I typically can't cover my monthly expenses).
Because of this, the food bank at my local LGBT+ center has been a bloodline. It's run by Operation Healthy Hearts.

Something I say a lot is, "Let Black kids go to Narnia" as shorthand for, "There should be more stories where Black characters get to be centered in the magical adventures they've often been excluded from" so projects like this always make me so happy. I am looking forward to more from this team!
While making a short film over the summer, things get crazy for best friends Tammy and Sia. Witches, magic books and Vampires too? Will their friendship survive this supernatural summer, and will Tammy be able to handle a romance with two vampires?
