This is so important. Reclaim your sovereignty and act even if the steps seem tiny. Support your nervous system and it will care for you like nothing and no one else ever will.

I had only published in Academia. I decided to turn my dissertation into a comic and it went to literary auction. I didn’t even know what a literary auction was. She was compiling what she needed for that and told me to do that so I just did what she told me.

Well I wrote it in 1996, I used my actual name, and spoke at conferences about lesbians reclaiming the erotic. I told her someone is going to put 2 + 2 together because I’m an out lesbian in my mainstream published work. And she advised me to remove it. Without even looking at it.

So I sent her some of my old erotica and now I’m writing a queer romantacy proposal for her which she wants yesterday. Because the trade presses aren’t buying non-fiction anymore.

Are there any of us old Xenite fan fic writers who went on to be published authors around?
My first agent, who I later fired, said, take all your fan fic off the internet! So I did! Or I tried.
My new agent is like, well was the writing good for 36 year old you? Then stand by it!

For those following along I’ve been on a deep dive on comedy as subversive directed anger. When I was at Hollywood Writing Boot Camp, drama was my thing.
This woman is brilliant. Her whole gig seems to be interacting with the audience by lottery.
This is also education:

I mean, I strongly doubt that the Volkswagen engineers who implemented a system for detecting the car was running on a benchmarking platform did not realize that this was cheating, with or without ethics classes.

An old screenshot talking about Google on top. It says "Google is a pure search engine — no weather, no news feed, no links to sponsors, no ads, no distractions, no portal litter. Nothing but a fast-loading search site. Reward them with a visit. Below is a screenshot from The Phantom Menace, where Anakin Skywalker is walking next to a building and behind him you see the shadow of Darth Vader.

I was sooo cynical and yet somehow not even close to cynical enough

The most scathing critics of Silicon Valley circa 2014 barely scratched the surface of the treachery these companies have shown.

Providing your products to criminal regimes planning to use them to violate human rights on a massive scale is a choice!

We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.

That’s what the Ambien corporation said at the time. Racism is not a side effect of Ambien.

I have war insomnia. I have Ambien around here somewhere. Wasn’t that Rosanne Bar’s downfall? And Riot is trying to tell me something about my alter to my dad I set up when I brought his book back last month

I told the press that my dad left me all these Irish history books, including Ireland Her Own. No matter what racist insanity Irish Americans were up to, he would just mutter “The Irish are the N-words of the white race.” (Much less politely).
