Between Mozilla removing their promise to never sell your data, to some of the other anti-privacy things they've been doing, in addition to partnering with this in particular, and their wish to partner with ad companies, and their push to work on generative LLM's instead of keeping up a good browser, and now, this? Now would be a good time to cancel your donation to Mozilla. Besides, corporations love, or will love, the direction they are headed in, so they will end up sponsoring Mozilla. Save that money and pay artists instead.

Just discovered Amanda Briar and this series. Dawn of Hope is the first book in a debut New Adult Fantasy Romance trilogy, for readers who love slow burn romance, found family, a quest, secret identity, and magical systems. It is meant for adult audiences with spice levels increasing throughout the series. I can't find where to purchase the eBooks on her website but the audiobooks are there.

Honestly wish I'd discovered Clive Barker sooner, especially after this direct quote. Noting Rowling’s vast financial success, Barker felt that Rowling’s newfound position of fame ought to exclude her from discussing trans rights. He added, “It really just seems redundant for a woman as successful, as validated in the world, as Ms Rowling, to be negative, to be disruptive if you will, to a very beaten up subculture. These are human beings. She has no right to opine, I think, upon the lives of human beings that she does not know.” “I feel very protective of people who are on the edge of our culture as gay people still are,” Barker continued. “And certainly transgender people are on the edge of our culture. And here you have one of the most successful people in the frigging world – Ms Rowling. Going after a very emotionally vulnerable portion of our culture. It just seems unnecessary and unfair.” https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/hellraiser-clive-barker-publishing-homophobia/ #Books #Author #Authors @bookstodon group
