Publishers everywhere: if you’ve gotten a story submitted by me in the second half of this year, know that it was a rare special gem and should be cherished because I sent it during the 2 hours of free time I have had since August

HUGE. Judge Xinis grants the writ of habeas corpus and orders that the government "SHALL release [Kilmar] Abrego Garcia from ICE custody immediately."

Every part of this is bonkers. The intro is bonkers. The transition to his health is bonkers. The mention that other presidents didn't need cognitive exams is bonkers. The claim that this screening test is somehow hard is bonkers. The idea that criticism of him is treason is bonkers. All of it.

ECO24 IS HERRRRRRE I think this from @apexmag.bsky.social is the most important anthology of the year, and @marissavu.bsky.social is the editor of the year. There, I said it. There's a clarity of vision happening here (and quality) that's unparalleled.

The whispers are true. We open to submissions at midnight (12am EST)

My brother told me to bring a soup that blinds you for one day for Thanksgiving dinner so I made this and had a test bowl and I’ve been hiccuping for 3.5 hours

surprise! i'm in this issue of The Dark with a reprint of my coastal new weird story "Twilight Tide," which features undead marine creatures, love letters, neurodivergency, and estranged hornysad monsterfucking 🐠💍🦷 i am delighted this was the story they liked

In the midst of a government shutdown, as masked ICE agents roam America’s cities with impunity, with lines at food banks across the country growing, and farmers at risk as America bails out Argentina instead… Donald Trump threw a Roaring 20s/Great Gatsby themed Halloween party at Mar-a-Lago.

Even if the House was fully functional, they're in session for an avg of 147 days and out for 218. Under Speaker Johnson, Congress has been in session only 12 of the last 97 days, and he still won't swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva. These are the people who demand Work Requirements.😐

Perhaps the most ominous satellite presentation we've seen. Cat 5 Melissa within 2 hours of landfall in Jamaica. Winds at 185 mph (tied for 2nd highest on record). Pressure at 892 mb (tied for 3rd lowest). Will be one of strongest Atlantic storms to make landfall ever recorded.

A wonderful review of ECO24! "The diversity of stories reflects the diversity of the authors and also showcases the indefinable quality of eco-fiction." Ben highlights stories by K-Ming Chang, Guillermo G. Mendoza, @hironennes.bsky.social, @renanbernardo.com, @kayv.bsky.social & Mathew Freeman 💚

This is the best political news I’ve seen in a very long time — so please pass it on👇 Each state can limit Citizens United in their own state & they don’t have to wait for other states to do it. Our new @rollingstone.com piece based on our new book MASTER PLAN. Get the book at LeverNews.com/book

"If women in yoga pants are confronting ICE you've lost" "Even wine moms are going to the rally!" "This is real protesting, not like those women with pussyhats!" Hey, real quick, why is it that some of y'all can't tweet about women organising without dripping contempt?
