John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
well it's not "Fansub"
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
bratwurst, try a little self-confidence. how about "princessbest"
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thanks for writing it! Although I wish you didn't have to.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you so much!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Happy Pride to lesbian car mechanics.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Wise choice bringing a great feline beast along for the journey!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Spent my day post-markets getting sad about @wiswell.bsky.social 's new release :'I Good book to pet kitties to, tho, 11/10
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
This is an excellent piece. Monsters are a political construct. An identity that is praiseworthy to demonize, harm, exploit, and destroy. Never trust anyone who peddles in dehumanizing others. Especially not this Supreme Court.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you so much! Ironically, I just released my second book last week! Wearing The Lion is also on Audible. It's about Heracles bonding with monsters rather than slaying them.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Happy Pride to the memory of Alan Turing.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
It looks like you're ruining the world. Would you like some help?
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Are they responsive to other animals' noises? Like if I say in a regretful tone, "Alright, fine," as I move away, is there a chance they won't give me a parking ticket?
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I'm pretty cool with snakes up until I hear a rattle. My childhood media diet taught me that I will die in the next few seconds.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I was a simple child. Give me a theropod with horns, and I wanted to know everything about them. Carnotaurus was so neat.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Awww I love that Kirby is into Delany.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Why thank you! ππ€π€ I'd dearly love to visit Can*Con (and Canada in general!) someday.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you so much!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!

Bluesky has died so many times that even Uncle Ben and Batman's parents think it's overdone.

Sotomayor: "Given its conduct in these proceedings, the Governmentβs posture resembles that of the arsonist who calls 911 to report firefighters for violating a local noise ordinance."
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Ads for Mario Kart have gone too far
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Wearing The Lion has been out in the world for a whole week! My favorite thing in the reception is listing different readers' favorite character. So far the faves have been: -Heracles -Megara -Auntie Hera -Granny -Purrseus -Boar -Ares -Hephaistos
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
The reporter who threw his shoes at Bush served 9 months in prison and was tortured for it and to this day days he does not regret it in the slightest.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Satoshi Kon was special.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thanks, folks!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
That little demigod baby has a long career ahead of him!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Gods help me, Iβm about to voluntarily go outside for a walk. Is it grossly (and dangerously) hot & humid out? Yes. Did my local bookstore call me to tell me they had gotten in my copy of @wiswell.bsky.social βs new book? Also yes.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
You're the real hero here, Suzanne!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
You deserve this beverage after such a grand journey!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I mean, I'm down to call it that!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
You deserve this sugar rush!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Ahhh I can't wait for your thoughts!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
-Trains of ants -Little bitty cliffs -Trees with hella leaves swaying in breeze -Cobwebs on trees -Lake skimmer bugs skimming dem lakes
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Yaaaay!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):

Time for a new audiobook and Iβm so excited to listen to @wiswell.bsky.socialβs latest π§
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Peopleβuse alt-text. USE ALT-TEXT! Iβm going to start blocking folks who donβt. And possibly folks that RT folks who donβt. Just FYI.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Say what you will, but she vastly improved her wardrobe coming into the new century.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you, Anne!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Oh yes! I've liked villains ever since I was little. Skeletor to Godzilla to X-Men to Grendel. I've always been a weird little guy.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Happy Pride to gay social workers.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Are you emotional about X-Mens?
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you so much!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
It was just so cool for an X-Men fan!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Hear her roar.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
i know it's weird i grew up to write sympathetic bad guys
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
What's a poster you had up in your room growing up?
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope you'll enjoy my monster!

John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I hope my monster will treat you well!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I'm so glad the book landed that strongly for you! Writing Shesheshen was so liberating for me.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Thank you so much!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):

John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):

John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Finally getting down to read #wearingTheLion by @wiswell.bsky.social really enjoying it so far! Love Heras chapters! #dipshitHusband
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
If I could schedule my brain, I would get so much more done!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Through Vash the Stampede, all things are possible.
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
BRILLIANT
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
I could pack in ten minutes, but instead what if I put a podcast on right before I opened my bag and then had ADHD for two hours?
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
but that raspberry haul π
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
That's so kind of you to say!
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Hurray, it came! I'm really looking forward to this! @wiswell.bsky.social
John Wiswell (@wiswell.bsky.social):
Haha thank you! I love putting the profane alongside the sacred--or at least the beautiful next to the silly.
