🏰An inherited Scottish castle sounds like a decent consolation prize when an algorithm wrecks your career. Getting sent to 1705 in a wool dress and sneakers is a bit of a fucking overcorrection.
Then Callum walks in. 😏
Step into the opening of Soul Castle: The Guardian & The Keeper, my Scottish time-travel fantasy romance.

BREAKING🚨️️️️️️: Two former senior FBI officials have been charged with lying to Congress about their involvement in investigations concerning Hunter Biden and his laptop.
DOJ says Benavides claimed he learned the FBI had Hunter’s laptop through Wikipedia in 2023, despite discussing it with colleagues before the 2020 election. Prosecutors say records also contradict Floris’s denials of involvement.
That’s a hell of a development. Now prosecutors have to prove it. Floris’s lawyers, of course, deny wrongdoing.
