Have you ever noticed that old clothes online sometimes look better than old clothes in your closet?

Why is that? 🧵

Ok everyone, I’m assigning you your resistance homework for the week.

Everyone ready?

Do something silly that makes you smile. I just waved at a dog that had its head out the car window because it made me happy. Don’t let the assholes take your joy.

Want to hear about a party that isn’t too keen on democracy, deporting people who side with their opposition and stifling the opposition press to remain in power?

The Alien and Sedition Acts have a LOT to say.

1. @matthewhughes.bsky.social has done this both personally and professionally
2. My editor at Penguin (Megan Wenerstrom) has been excellent precisely for saying “great idea but what if we did it this way” avoiding a bunch of shitty work and somehow making it more fun

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

Want to hear re: a president who wanted his opponents physically beaten & was accused of wanting to be king?

My lecture on Andrew Jackson

In this cartoon from his presidency, he’s standing on a shredded Constitution w/a book titled “Judiciary of the US” at his feet

Are you seeing ICE recruitment commercials during #AEWDynamite or Collision?

In AEW, we say ABOLISH ICE, ABOLISH FASCISM.

Tell the networks to SAY NO TO ICE during AEW!

AGENT OF BYZANTIUM is Byzantine alt hist, not fantasy. It's set in the 14th century of a universe where Muhammad doesn't found Islam. The Byzantines and Persians are still intriguing against each other in the Middle East, and technology is starting to change.

More Byzantine fantasy? Why, yes! THE TALE OF KRISPOS is an omnibus of the 3 books of, well, the Tale of Krispos. It's Basil the Macedonian with some John Tzimiskes thrown in. I can get away with that, because fantasy.

Facts about Hilde
A profile of my wizard cat character, who we now learn is named Hilde. The text says: Facts about Hilde Age:? Born in: unidentified fantasy land Breed: orange Occupation: wizard thief (a wizard who is a thief, not a thief who steals wizards) Wants: your stuff Bored of: her stuff Skills: reality bending, power napping Fears: reality-bending dogs Greatest achievement: stole the king's crown Lowest low: crown was too big A relationships section identifies the king as an "easy mark", dipper as a "frenemy", and poppy as a "rival magician" A reality cam section shows a photo of Hilde in the real world. Since Hilde is not based on a real life pet, the photo is just of the cartoon her from the story where she briefly visited the real world and bit the artist's hand
