Hi editors, I have a reported story about the at-home bakers (all women! all moms!) who started their own small sugar cookie businesses through instagram. it has a business angle at the moment but can be adjusted. i would love to see it find a home!

if she announced she wanted to hunt Vivek for sport in the woods of Scioto County I would completely understand
Governor-elect Amy Acton (D-OH) says she has “no intention of speaking” to her Republican opponent, Vivek Ramaswamy, after his campaign ran a controversial ad that featured her estranged mother: “Leaders’ words matter and we need to hold folks accountable.” First on CBS Mornings, Governor-elect Acton also shares about her mission to bring “public service, unity and decency” to her state and her position on AI data centers: “We’re open for business, but we’re not for sale and we’re not to be exploited.”

Every morning, when I first wake up, there are a few moments where I forget that you're gone. This is about AO3.

I have two cats. They are not a bonded pair and they are not friends. They are more like coworkers who share a cubicle space.

Day 8 of the AO3 outage. Tags I would use to describe this catastrophic event are as follows: Angst, Suffering, Hurt/No Comfort, Whump, Edging, Drama, and Eventual Happy Ending. (🤞)

This is extremely well done, and on a difficult topic, too. I won’t spoil it.
Einer der besten und berührendsten Spots, die ich je gesehen habe. Und das zu einem sehr schlimmen und traurigen Thema - zu dem es sehr wichtig ist, dass es viel Aufmerksamkeit bekommt. Daher bitte teilen. #MonstersEverywhere @NOMOREorg

A day ago she got called fat in front of a thousand people by an adjudicated rapist, smiled through it, kissed him, and it ended her career. You can see her realize it in real time that it’s over for her - realization that she sold her soul to accomplish nothing. The pain is real. And she deserved it.

the ideal novel is one in which a woman gives up on her lover and tries to find something to do

Anyway, no one is gonna stop me from posting as soon as AO3 comes back. I miss it and I miss the readers, and I miss reading and commenting and browsing different tags and I love that website and everyone has worms for brains and needs to go outside.

I keep thinking about Amy Acton not picking up Ramaswamy’s concession call. She did not owe him the courtesy of answering her phone, and she knew it. We don’t have to take calls from our monsters. Not any of us. We don’t even have to listen to their pathetic message. We can just push delete.

Remember when Charlie Kirk got killed and Republicans were like YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU HAVE UNLEASHED, TREMBLE IN FEAR AT WHAT’S COMING and then nothing happened and then they lost everything?
