Immortal. Magical. Wise. And utterly, totally outmatched.

Character art for everybody's favourite imp has arrived - thank you so much to the amazing @grendraws for their work on this! I love how they're captured him in the act of doing something he almost certainly shouldn't be doing 😂

[Lucy Knight @Jargonautical]

If you like:
* grown up protagonists
* thrift shops and coffee shops
* a sprinkling of data science
* sweary fairies
* mythology and vengeance
then Somewhere To Be should be your next read!

Today I am making peace with the fact that this book will be over 100k words. Just - not TOO much over, I hope 😬

[Lucy Knight @Jargonautical]

Yeah, so anyway, I found another plot hole and it was driving me crazy, you know how it is, anyway long story short, we're back up to 106k words 😬

Nigel Farage took £40,000 to speak at a conference helping wealthy people gain citizenship abroad. Now he’s stoking fears that entrepreneurs are “fleeing all over the world”.

Reform UK took £2.3 million from fossil fuel firms. £2.3 million!

They’ll hike your bills, lie about it with nonsense about oil & gas, and throw in some culture war nonsense to keep you distracted.

Different packaging. Same old grift.

“The looks of hate, the feeling that you just don’t know if you’re going to be safe, have really got worse since the ruling, to the extent I now either ask a friend to come in with me or use the disabled toilet”

TERFs think women should be legally obliged to undergo mandatory swabs and have apps on their phones in order to access a public loo.

"Villagers verbally abuse Scouts they mistook for migrants. Newbridge residents confuse 30 Scottish teenagers on summer trip for asylum seekers."

This is the HATE driven by @Nigel_Farage and #Reform.

Liz Truss is a former Prime Minister, a former leader of the Conservative Party, has been a member of the privy council for more than a decade and has 24 hour protection from the Metropolitan Police. Who precisely does she think "the elite" is if it's not her?

And this is the person who accuses trans people of being crazy. Putting an angry psycho scrawl in Nicola’s new book. You’ve completely lost the plot @jk_rowling . It’s YOU 🫵 and your ghouls making Britain a more dangerous place for ALL women.

[Thomas Willett @ThomasWillett9]

The issue isn’t that you “chose to organise separately”. There’s nothing wrong with groups focusing on specific parts of the LGBTQ+ community. The problem is that you actively work and lobby to undermine trans people’s rights, while aligning with known homophobes and biphobes.

"JK Rowling's barrister friend says she was banned by her vet for her gender-critical beliefs - but clinic staff say it was because she was rude when told dog was too fat"

These people are so embarrassing.

[Barack Obama @BarackObama]

Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.

Now Republicans are trying something different: quietly weakening the law and hoping you won’t notice. We can’t let them.
