I currently have shipping to the USA turned off due to it being complicated right now. You can go to my publisher's site and order from there.
The only difference is you won't get the little bonuses I like to include when ordered directly from me. You know who to blame.

They're going to have a rough time pinning this on trans people.
Oh, no! These surveillance devices are being used to surveil us!! Who could have foreseen this?! WHO?!
Me, too!
Iโm good either day.โ
Cory Booker text message and my responses: Are you kidding me? STOP. STOP STOP STOP STOP From any and every phone number STOP.
I find little ways to entertain myself... what else can you do?!

This is an absolutely insane visual for a European official... holy shit.
"Deescalateโฆ"
Christian Nationalists with nuclear weapons braying that Islamic Nationalists should not have nuclear weapons.
Our homegrown lunatics all need to be REMOVED before they gin up a preemptive strike... we're closer than we think.
Well the joke's on them because the GOP will never return the favor. Last guy to be corrupt is a rotten egg!

Dialog box informing me that "My Library" cannot be modified.
What is a library, why can't I modify it if it's MINE, and what makes Adobe think I wanted to modify it in the first place?! This justโฆ appeared.
Wake up, Dems. This is a LOSER issue. We don't need to reach across the aisle on this or anything else. LET THEM BURN.

He could have just said โweโre going to push some buttonsโ but he went with โweโre butt-hurt republicansโ. Weird choice.
Nail that story down! It's important!
Charley Chase brandishes three exploding cigars in a promotional still from the Laurel and Hardy film "Sons of the Desert".
This guy!
(He hated this role, but he's STILL hilarious.)
Two more weeks to get these guys over the finish line.
For god's sake CHARLEY CHASE is in Sons of the Desert! (The funny one, not the porn one.)
โOh no, my theft canโt be protected by the state from other thieves!โ - all the AI Bros who constantly snark that Hollywood is finished because they are so good at creating the perfect prompt.
There is no amount of money in the world that would lead me to fight a Vietnamese refugee that grew up in Louisiana
(Also I really want to try a Korean style Poโ Boy)
