Text in a bold font reading "Harlem Renaissance Forever" is split up by the Apochromatic Unlimited rainbow "A" and a decorative scroll that reads "BHM 2026." Behind this, a pair of rough silver wing shapes frames a colorful paint splatter and explosion of gaming paraphernelia, including cards, dice, and tokens. Spilling out from the wings are two persons: on the left, a black woman in a gold flapper-girl dress, jewelry, and feathered headdress; on the right, a black cyborg in rugged EVA gear with decorative gold collar, dark shades, and wiring mixed in among his braids.

What's good folks? Enjoying Black History Month?

What are we saying? Of course you are! You got us and our stories to motivate you all month long.

Speaking of which, check the post below for dates and time of the games we have this Friday!

Going live soon!

Join our cast of scrapy cosplayers as a fun day of cosplay turns into chaos as everyone finds themselves transformed as their favorite characters.

Someone brought up a timeline. Like that I’d like to get feedback between 4 to 6 weeks from the start date so it gives people an expectation and they can best address how realistic that is.

I’m starting my beta edit which means getting beta readers!

I think I’ll be throwing out a google form.

Set some expectations:

- what I want out of beta readers
- general format I’d like feedback in
- that I’d like them to read the thing if they are going to sign up

Is that insane?

Advice?

And just like that the alpha write of my novels done.

Fuck yeah.

I’m back stateside and have been trying to be disconnected for a week.

I feel like I missed a LOT.

Idaho families sue over immigration raid that swept up hundreds, including U.S. citizens — NBC News About 400 people, including children and U.S. citizens, were detained for four hours while they were denied food and water in the raid, according to the lawsuit.

More than 400 people, including hundreds of citizens, were “sorted” at gun point into racial and ethnic groups by 200 ICE agents who fired flash-bang grenades into cars with people inside, pointed guns at children & demanded their zip tied parents not comfort them. apple.news/Ausdx6kWtT0e...

Teferi during Black History Month:

Are episodic books with some overarching plot but without a huge driving plot a thing?

Like cyberpunk characters go out and do dope shit together?

I know this is a dumb fucking question but is this a thing I could write and sell?

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

I never got past the alpha write phase so I don’t know what to dooooo.

ICE halts "all movement" at Texas detention facility due to measles infections The measles​ cases at the Dilley Immigration Processing Center were detected Friday, Department of Homeland Security spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said in a statement to CBS News.

Horrifying. ICE confirms measles outbreak at Dilley family detention center. www.cbsnews.com/news/ice-dil...

We don’t owe them anything. They spent a decade ignoring obvious evidence implicating the most guilty while fabricating insane accusations against the innocent.

A reminder that Bad Bunny performs in front of the biggest audience on earth in seven days

Bad Bunny condemns ICE during his #GRAMMYs speech for Best Música Urbana Album:

“Before I say thanks to god, I’m going to say, ICE out. We’re not savages, we’re not animals, we are humans and we are Americans.”

I’m still seeking a job almost a year after Monomith’s closure, and would appreciate your support. If you hear of any opportunities or just want to catch up, please send me a message or comment below.

I’ve also got a long history of consulting, editing, and DEI consulting.

A separate post on the job hunt which frankly is going nowhere. I've had two interviews, one of which is being generous in calling it an "intervew" when it was more like false hope bundled in a lie.

All industries are struggling but on the 25th, it'll be a year of searching.

32 patterns given out and counting!!

Dark souls banner that reads ‘good enough’
