1) I still expect Schumer to try, even if he can't corral a rogue member.

2) There are sticks a Senate leader can bring to bear if the carrots aren't enough.

There's still no guarantee it'll work, but see point 1.

We don't just expect you to vote no. We expect you to whip and enforce the rest of your caucus to vote no as well.

ALL of them.

Let me be clear: Iโ€™m glad Kristi Noem was fired. But we still have to abolish ICE.

Also people complaining that the show isn't including their powers enough, as if they could possibly tell that already.

This is a TEASER TRAILER. Of *course* they're limiting what they're showing! It's probably almost all footage from the first few episodes, too.

Christ in a canoe...

I'm already rolling my eyes at the people claiming it's not "real" GL because it's not set in space. The various GLs have *always* had a pretty solid split of Earth-set and cosmic stories.

The Lanterns trailer looks absolutely fantastic.

The bullshit negativity in the comments on said trailer, less so.

(No, nobody has to think it looks good. "It's not for me" isn't the kind of negativity I'm talking about.)

Any of you using Ellipsus as your writing software of choice? If so, what do you think of it?

(I am willing, when speaking to said agent, to provide a list of my prior tie-ins, of my non-tie-ins that are in the same vein as the project I'm shooting for, etc. At this stage, I literally just need them to make the initial contact.)

If you have or know an agent in that sphere that you trust, and that you think might be willing to speak to me about a one-off collaboration, I'd *deeply* appreciate hearing from you. A private message is fine if you don't want to respond in public.

Thanks.

Okay, fellow tie-in novel writers, I could use your assistance.

I need an agent to reach out to someone for me, in hopes of acquiring a particular work-for-hire gig. For reasons I'm not getting into here, my current agency is not interested in pursuing tie-in projects.

I'm going to need more than a Senegalese name and a vague "there are indicators" quote from a grossly compromised FBI to believe the shooting on 6th Street last night was terrorism.

Also, let's not pretend those poor Iranian schoolgirls were the first children Trump murdered to hide his rapes, either.

I see he wages war the same way he lives the rest of his life:

Targeting schoolgirls.

I wish I had the funds to pay an artist to help me create graphic novel versions of THE GOBLIN CORPS and THE IRON DEVILS. I feel like those two novels, in particular, would work really well in that format.

(Anyone who suggests I use AI art to do it gets blocked. Seriously.)

This is why I keep--and *will* keep--banging the trans rights drum. This is why a candidate who calls them a distraction or claims there are "legitimate questions" is unacceptable.

WE STILL HAVE PLENTY OF TIME TO SUPPORT GOOD CANDIDATES BEFORE THE NEXT ELECTION. (Assuming there is one.)

Dispatches from MN: it's getting really hard, guys. The media has left, the donations are drying up, and ICE is still here kidnapping people. It's hard not to be resentful that other people have the option of setting this aside for.other things.

You need to open your eyes to this. If your first instinct is to deny that what she says is accurate, you need to really sit with yourself, because this _is_ happening.

And we cannot let it.

Apparently Ammon freaking Bundy wrote a ten-page essay in support of immigrants called "A Christian and Constitutional Case for Protecting Those Who Come to America," and finds the behavior of ICE and the regime morally sickening, and I have no idea whatsoever what this fucking world is anymore. ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

I don't know why it took me this long to realize, but the reason ICE is tear-gassing schools is because their bosses can only get it up when they see little girls crying.
