Yoko's Asterisk 🏳️⚧Amazing news! My YA debut VICTORIES GREATER THAN DEATH is just $2.99 in all ebook formats (Kindle, Kobo, Nook, Apple, etc.) for the month of March! Here’s your chance to get caught up before the third book of the trilogy, PROMISES STRONGER THAN DARKNESS, comes out on April 11!
Find out how Tina, a seemingly ordinary human girl, reclaims her heritage as the clone of an epic hero named Captain Argentian, and how Tina and her friends battle fascists while uncovering the secrets of the galaxy.
"The 'debate' over #trans kids is happening now not because of any new scientific data showing cracks in the regularly prescribed regimen given to trans adolescents. It’s the result of a growing movement of anti-trans activists and conservative politicians who want to limit #LGBTQ rights, especially after losing on gay marriage and failing to make headway in passing anti-trans bathroom bills."

I'm a hypocrite. I spend so much time forcing people to take care of themselves, and when it comes time to take care of myself, I balk. Why do people have a hard time accepting help? https://cryingundermydesk.com/let-people-take-care-of-you/
Christopher MimsTurns out the existence of an "alpha" wolf is a myth.
It was based on old/bad experiments, conducted when unrelated wolves were thrown together in captivity.
In actual wild wolves, packs are just families. There's no dominant alpha battling for the top spot -- and in the rare cases there is, it's an alpha *female* wolf.
Insert obvious implications for the use of this term in human societies.

"I should 'throw myself into work,' right? That's what you do, when your personal life is a ninety-nine alarm sewage conflagration. Except that 'throwing yourself into your work' means hurling yourself into a story about the Puritan work ethic — a story that has devoured countless people only to spit out their bones one at a time, over a long period." #amwriting
My partner and I have been listening to the "60 Songs That Explain the '90s" podcast and it has been a wild nostalgia trip. So, naturally, we're spending our Friday night watching the music videos of our youth.
