Thinking about books, bones, sociability, magic, and care. Co-led the COVID Tracking Project @ the Atlantic in 2020. Bunch of editorial and community work in tech, journalism, and culture orgs before that. Child advocate in the extremely broken US foster-care system.

I write a lot about community and sociability, including on the fediverse. I don't CW those topics.

Image is whats on twitter now. All tweets about their propaganda, silent censorship, silently censored, removed. Twitter is no longer a social media site.

The last image was the Canadian Womens Hockey Team Beat Russia, 6 to 1. The Russians showed up late without test results, so Canada played in masks, every minute of every period. I was and am, filled with admiration.

To be honest, I mostly lurk and boost.

The Last Rose of Summer is a true story about corruption in #cancer research. I discovered a cheap, plant-derived drug that could replace some much more toxic (but more lucrative) therapies. #BigPharma got involved and suppressed the research. Eventually I had to publish the story in thinly veiled fiction and survive a bunch of murder attempts.

"Mary Austin" is a pseudonym, as my publisher forced me to use one. So... hi, I'm "Mary." 🤷‍♀️
