Emma: I love all my daughters equally.
Irma: You called me "Mindee" for a year.
Emma: I was teaching you a lesson.
Irma: What lesson?
Emma: Your name is awful.
Irma: You're a bad mother.
Emma: Yes. I am aware of this. I never claimed otherwise.
Megan: She's right. She's a bad mother.
Ruby: No contest.
Emma: See? I'm such a bad mother that my children from other timelines show up to insult me.
Ruby: You asked us to come. Because our timelines don't have sales tax.
Emma: Mommy needs her liquor.
Megan: You're disgustingly wealthy.
Emma: And this is how I stay that way.

As we approach the cut-off for Hugo nominations, I want to remind folks that the October Daye series IS eligible this year, on account of the genuinely horrifying number of words I've added to it over the last few years.
I try not to be all "hey hey me over here nominate me," but the rules in this category are just new enough, and hence confusing enough, that I really do feel like clarifying my eligibility matters.
(Also I am occasionally a petulant princess, and at least one person has said that my being nominated again would show "a lack of breadth" for the category, where Lois McMaster Bujold winning twice apparently did not show a lack of breadth?)

One of the best things about doing comics is that I feel like other people are being paid to do fan art for me, all the time. "I get to make someone DRAW THIS" is often said, in hushed tones.
Like, the last page of the first issue of NIGHTCRAWLER? My inner teenage girl punched the goddamn sky.
I get to make people draw SUCH AMAZING THINGS in my Lumberjanes annual. And today I got a bunch of Spider-Gwen pages that were just like OH SHIT WHAT LOOK AT THAT WHAT.

Today is THURSDAY.
Yesterday was WEDNESDAY.
Wednesday is NEW COMIC BOOK DAY.

All of which means, when put together, that I am now the published author of an X-Men ongoing.
THE AMAZING NIGHTCRAWLER is only five issues long (I almost typed six just there, that's how much I don't want this to be over), but it's still an ongoing. Same creative team, same editor (hi, @chrisrobinson!), same everything for five issues.
Even if Marvel decided tomorrow that I was too me to work with ("me" can mean so many things, from "distracted by novels" to "filled my editor's office with live frogs"), I would still be the author of an X-Men ongoing. And that's amazing.

1. One question that jumps at me in this passage, Luke 10:25-37, is – Who are the robbers of our days? How do we describe robbery in our day ? The original robber is Satan who leverages the sin nature to destroy other people's lives (John 10:10). #Love
2. There are armed robbers who rob physically with weapons and there are also economic and political robbers destroying people’s lives. (James 5:4) #Love
3. Whichever way the robbers rob, they leave people wounded and hurt. There are people in our world today who are wounded. #Love

#SundayThoughts today’s sermon at #StAndrews #Guluddene - my village church, with 1 service at 10am to 12noon, non-resident pastor (we are working on building a residence in 2019)

#Okuwagala - loosely translated to #Love in English but that is just a small aspect & perspective
#okwagala is seeing the positive and the best in people and circumstances …

The story used is of #Joseph son of #Jacob. His father loved him so much more than his brothers, leading to “natural” ill feelings towards him
Lesson 1: Show love to your children equally and try not to show favoritism

His brothers wanted to kill him, but Reuben (in a moment of love) asked then to just put him in a hole, with plans to taking him back home later but did not follow up so he was sold into slavery

1. Love is a subject that every one of us has an opinion on. However our emphasis is on the doing part of Love. #Love
2. The first component of Love is in John 3:16 - for God so love the world that He gave his only begotten Son. #Love
3. To love is to recognize value in someone and to demonstrate that recognition of value. #Love

Name an awful old white man who you think the media would not sanctify upon their death, and I'll show you how they would.
"RIP former president Donald Trump. He really shook things up and inspired so many progressives to get involved in politics. When America elected its first Black woman president, many credited that achievement directly to Trump's presidency."

OK, look, sometimes people mess up. We all have times when we mess up. We all have times when we make two or three bad errors in succession. We're human. #1/23
The @newsundayherald is one of the important institutions of Scotland's news media. Admittedly it's less important now as our new media develops, but it was a big win for #Yes when, in 2014, it nailed our colours to its mast. #2/23
However, there's two aspects to that decision: yes, @newsundayherald's decision to come on board helped the #Yes movement, but the #Yes movement repaid that with a substantial boost in sales for the @newsundayherald. #3/23
