Let me be clear: I’m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

This obviously very stupid but is it also smart? We’ll talk to some liars after this break.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

In the story of Humpty Dumpty it is never said that he is an egg. However, it is never said that he is NOT an egg. This means that any character in ANY story could be an egg unless explicitly stated otherwise. Keep that in mind when you read a Jack Reacher novel

Man I hate watching videos, I barely watch actual TV, as long as out of touch idiots like me exist there is an audience for comics

Shocked to have received a weak, spineless email from my Senator, Chris Coons, today. Who knew he could send a whole email this close to Valentine's Day!

The Earthsea books did little to nothing for me, until that one came out of nowhere and hit me like a truck

it took an expensive, coordinated effort & a lot of people saying β€œthis doesn’t matter” to get from a bathroom ban costing one state $400 million & a gubernatorial race to β€œtrans people must turn in their documents which become invalid in a few hours or face fines & potential jail time” in 10 years.

Magic Oxbridge or boarding schools. Like any of the modern genre marketing buzzwords, about half are great (I love a story where a hyperfocused bookworm endangers themselves and others) and the other half are like "we need to add magical teams or houses to meet the buzzword targets"

Not to mention that many of the SAME PEOPLE are all for letting children get the measles, causing them to suffer various harms up to and including blindness and death

All serious historical novels are works of speculative fiction, even ones set in the β€˜60s and β€˜70s. These three are absolutely brilliant.

In terms of what cures are being lost:

- Epstein-Barr virus is perhaps the major trigger for multiple sclerosis
- herpes simplex virus causes cold sores, genital herpes, infections in babies, deadly meningitis
- shingles virus causes an intensely painful disease

The cover of my new book The Grapples Of Wrath. It shows a 2D graphic, block colour scene of a beach, with Brighton pier on the left side. A blue and white striped deckchair sits on yellow sand, under an orange sky. A lucha wrestling mask hangs from the deckchair, and appears to be dripping blood...

HELLO! My name is Alice Bell. I used to write about games, and now I still do that but also write murder mysteries with ghosts and jokes. The latest is about solving a murder in a pro-wrestling gym and is out now!
