This is a speech I’m giving to myself, mostly, with regards to my literary career, and to my “real” career, and to my financial situation generally. (Longer version of this clip here.)
But I’m also giving it to y’all with regards to the weblog awards. Hey, I don’t mind seeing Wetmachine lose to Ars Technica. It would just be nice to lose by less than ten-to-one. There are still 8 hours left to vote. We have about 240 votes, and only need another 2,000 to get back in the game. So who’s with me? Yeargh!

https://www.emptywheel.net/2022/09/30/aileen-cannon-is-stiff-arming-the-press/Sometimes the crucial moment in a crisis is when you’re focused on other things long before consequences peak— true of climate change, true of the failure to protect voting rights last year. It’s true of Pelosi’s fake blind trust bill. Stop it right now or face horrors later.
AFAIC(oncerned), John, you’re a mighty fine author.
I look forward to your masterpiece.
