Good art challenges its viewers.

@heliofractal Sounds like a ringing endorsement to me!

@theewinterwitch A gay man who's about to make it your problem.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

I am afraid this will be my personality from now on.

Time to get the X-Men back to the 90s.

Marvel Animation’s #XMen97 Season 2 streams July 1, only on Disney+.

@LindyTasteful KPop Demon Hunters would like a word.

@homosexualmouse My books? :)

@river_is_nice They have no butts? Like...really missing a key factor for the gay men there...

@megievalist As a lover of the Wife of Bath, this made my day. (She is a wonderful example that people have always been people.)

@tylerangert And this is why the arts and humanities are important. Being shown and told over and over to improve yourself or someone else will take your spot does ~ surprise! ~ make you better.

@hudsonsriver If I ever apologize to one of my own creations, please let it be known that it was done sarcastically.

@TriciaDearborn An excellent observation on what AI cannot do - actual solve problems. It can't think. It can (badly) guess at the what's statistically most logical.

In other words, it'll tell you to take the boring option.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

@denpanopticon Sounds like a skill issue.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

@nypost Who is more likely to molest children? The President of the United States of America or gay parents?

Guess which one is not in the Epstein files?

@JoyceCarolOates Oates, as usual, is right. The publishing business is data-driven at this point, like all other industries. If "women-focused" books are what sells, that's what gets published.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

@moonymarss Nah, man. Traditional publishing is one of the most reactive business models - consumers and retail buyers wanted this. The publishers actually hate making these, because the profit margin is so slim.

@zbogus77 I saw KUSHIEL and thought "OH!" and then remembered Phedre's other skill - linguistic savant. Truly a woman of many talents.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

@fairskyabove Genius.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

@NairYasmin An agent's main role outside of author care is literal gatekeeping for the publishers. They control the slush pile. Agents are not equipped to deal with this (many agents aren't even full-time!), and publishing workers are just tired and underpaid.

[Patrick Dyer @PFSPublishing]

But what if I was excited about my Nasty Pig shorts for summer?
They make my ass look amazing, y'all.

It’s not about politics. It’s morality. Movies, superheroes, comics as silly as it may sound, taught me a lot about empathy, understanding stories of marginalized people, & always stand up for them with a voice of reason. If I have a platform & I can use it responsibly, so be it
