#ScribesAndMakers 8/28. Our next featured creator is a pun-slinger. Share a pun.
In Spanish, to vote is votar. To throw is botar. They are pronounced identically. In 2015, I was in Guatemala during the election, in San Pedro Atitlan. Prohibida Botar Basura, or Throwing Trash Prohibited is a common sign painted on the walls of the town.
#WritersCoffeeClub August 28: How do we defend ourselves as artists when the arts are devalued?
MAKE ART LOUDER.
#ScribesAndMakers 8/29 Did you know what you wanted to be at 11?
Not that I remember.
#WritersCoffeeClub August 27: "Does ‘humanity’ as a concept figure often in your works? How so?"
do you mean definition #1? The quality of being humane? Sure. I like to write about characters who care.
or definition #2? The quality or state of being human? Again, yes, many of my characters are homo sapiens, so duh.
or definition #3? The totality of human beings? Hard to avoid, when you are writing about interactions between us and other worlds.
#PennedPossibilities 1101: Creature as an unconventional pet?
In Ocean and both my WsIP, Mander has befriended a pack of (cleverly named) pack dogs, who are loosely modeled after the javalinas of the Sonoran Desert, albeit larger, pricklier, and hexapodal.

@MaryAustinBooks@mstdn.social I hear the new wig is made exclusively from the hair of female Fox News hosts who aged out of the job.

#PennedPossibilities 1102: Do you have a strategy for how you approach worldbuilding?
Well, I have only built one, and that one just evolved with the story, so no.

@selzero@syzito.xyz I helped Reagan win in 1980 by voting for Anderson. Anyone who refused to vote for Kamala or Hillary bears responsibility for Trump, no matter how much they try to pass off the blame.
I would like to know if #RogerDean in any way was compensated for the entire aesthetic of #Avatar?
The latest release from #PeterGabriel, Looking For The Happy. Audio only #musicvideo.
What was done to the #Jewish people 80 years ago does NOT excuse what #Israel is doing to the #Palestinian people today.

@blogdiva@mastodon.social By the way, Amazon now lets authors remove DRM from their books. I have done so, so if you buy mine, you can share it with anyone you like. Also, the "pittance" I get from Amazon is a hell of a lot more than I would get from a typical publisher.
There has been a non-stop series of #earthquakes off the coast of #Chiapas, #Mexico, and a few in nearby #Guatemala and #Oaxaca over the last 24 hours. I think the number is well over 100.

@Nonilex@masto.ai Trump is such a small, petty, vindictive little troglodyte. I'm surprised he hasn't cut his own throatwattle, since it makes him look so bad.

#MarkwayneMullin Is an inbred racist buffoon, who is threatening the security of our #election system.
More importantly, MUCH more importantly, he was confirmed by a majority of the #Senate
Our last chance to save the #country is this November. Show the fuck up, hold your nose if you have to, and #vote #Democrat up and down the ticket.

@ai6yr@m.ai6yr.org Of course they did. They need the money to pay for Trump's giant swimming pool, WWE fight, Ballroom, and Arch. Fuck all Republicans and their voters.

@samlitzinger@journa.host @lee_eyres@mastodon.social I think the historical reason was to give the new congress and president time to travel to Washington.

@TexasObserver@texasobserver.social John Cornyn is a racist pig. Just rename ther monument.
Replying to
@samlitzinger@journa.host Agreed, but from what I've seen in Central America, where the government changes from the top down in every presidential election, this will destroy continuity in favor of chaos and corruption.
So, @WhichOne'sPink just boosted a #meme by @reiayanami@aus.social saying Scratch a #Centrist and you'll see a #Fascist. It shows a probably AI generated image of a guy holding a sign saying Equal Rights For All and another guy putting on KKK hood, with a confused woman in between them unable to choose. (Of course, it is a woman who is confused) I am not allowed to either quote or comment on the meme, presumably to avoid comments such as this:
Add simplistic, reductive #labelling, and the #left will never win another #election.

@blogdiva@mastodon.social Seriously. How dare creators expect to be paid for their work?

@ktdoggett@c.im Neither capitalism nor socialism exists in a vacuum. Both words are used as triggers to rile up people who understand neither.

@chemoelectric@masto.ai Einstein died in 1955. The first commercial radio station began broadcasting in 1920.

@chemoelectric@masto.ai I imagine he didn't stop thinking, but hey, I look forward to reading future installments of your theory.
