I want the Nova Knicks versus the Spurs for the title

It's out nowwwwwww. YOU can go PLAY the GAME I've spent the last two weeks fixated on now! Seriously, ZERO PARADES is great. And it will tide you over until the new season of Slow Horses arrives... My review: remapradio.com/articles/zer...

i hate only getting paid once a month. this shit sucks. i'm coming up to the end of the pay period and my insurance payment wiped out the last of my account. if anyone can spare even a bit to make sure i can buy groceries and pet supplies before next week it well be deeply appreciated

the billionaires are openly declaring war on everyone and in a lot of people's heads it's still about how some other group's existence is boutique and entitled and their pain is not real while your group's pain is the one true reality. we need to kill this shit across the board.

There are like four or five distinct discourses that I can’t get to the bottom of right now and I’m probably better off. Might read more Zero Parades reviews though

I've gotta make like $200 before next week for rent thanks to some bullshit so if you haven't yet, check out my latest zine: noescapevg.itch.io/no-escape-20...

If sex and gender were so fucking innate it wouldn't take a whole cultural apparatus to maintain them, would it

yeah man did you hear? the guy casting shadows in plato's allegory of the cave got cancelled for casting problematic shadows. yeah its really fucked up especially given that the shadows cast on the wall of the cave are basically the same thing as real things outside of the cave

ARE YOU ENJOYING YOUR CHATGPT FRIENDS

A lot of bitching and moaning on here about how the left jerks off about Russia and China meanwhile the actual former Secretary of State for the last Democratic presidency lied to Congress about a country's forced starvation policy in order to keep funneling weapons and he's been rewarded for it.

say what you will about the many ways in which it is very bad (i certainly will) but pokemon is like the only big children's franchise from when i was a kid that is like. still genuinely for kids. kids be loving pikachu in all decades

Oh wow you watch media from governments I think are authoritarian? That pales in comparison to my media consumption strategy: getting everything from people who post on r/politics

On the reissuing of old ideas... pcvulpes.wordpress.com/2026/05/21/r...

Took several days longer than it should have: my addendum/corrective on reboots, remakes, re-releases, and nostalgia as being used to sell you something, except I'm not sure how much I really talked a/b nostalgia so much as creative dead-ends and exhaustion pcvulpes.wordpress.com/2026/05/21/r...

I was watching highlights of the 2014 men’s World Cup last night while finishing that article going live in two hours, and I got so excited to see all these teams play again. I love football

More money than god and they don't know how to make movies or comics that'll bring in a new audience, just playing the same songs over and over as their followership dies off slowly.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.

Sometimes people say things you think are stupid about stuff you kind of care about and you just have to walk away from a pointless argument

Read the first volume of Kieran Gillen’s Darth Vader run last night. (Shout out to Libby and the FLP). I found Doctor Aphra at once both immediately charming *and* found her an odd match with Vader. Reverse Indiana Jones bit is funny, seems a little different than the character I met a decade later.

Something truly miraculous happened last night: Though we had never met nor even communicated, artist Jamal Barber came to Charis Books in Atlanta and gifted me a print of his magisterial work “The Overseer Class.” I am beyond words and will let the art and our smiles explain how loved I felt.

ICYMI: I had sheafs of notes and thoughts left after this conversation so I turned them into an essay performing a paranoid reading of the Southern Reach and Area X as metaphors for the struggle for a border(less) definition of the genre of weird fiction (as I am wont to do)

TV companies should just let people install some fruity version of Linux or Android on their TV, the number of people who would actually do that is basically a rounding error and it would make TVs less annoying.

On the tube

if gas were $10 a gallon i'd be like "that sounds about right yeah i shouldn't be using this"

Hell of a week for the opposition: 8 Senate Dems voted to confirm a Trump judge who wouldn’t admit Biden won. A Dem governor pardoned an election denier who orchestrated a breach of her county’s election system. 8 House Dems voted for a bill attacking trans rights in schools. Feel represented?

none of the occupations are over

Taking a while for these screenshots to upload to Wordpress, but if you want to hear some of my thoughts on soccer and EA FC 25 after over 100 hours managing Chelsea FC, tune in to pcvulpes.wordpress.com tomorrow

Heads up but we're not done with the anti-trans bills for the week. Tomorrow HR 1329 will get a vote in the House. 127 Dems co-sponsored the original version that didn't have this anti-trans section, but if you have time in the morning, call your rep and check if they still plan to support it.

this was HR 2616 which also bans books by or about trans and nonbinary people from schools START CALLING YOUR SENATORS NOW CIS FRIENDS TRANS KIDS NEED YOU

This family has spoken to me too, and are real, and in need. Every share helps them find a helper on your TL possibly. Every share counts. Let's do all we can to uplift this family in their dire need. #HelpSky #MutualAid chuffed.org/project/omsh... 💕💸🍉

Hey did you read my review of Zero Parades yet? Many are calling it the greatest thing I've ever written. Go read about my current pick for GOTY 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Describing someone having any type of moral or political standard you don’t personally have a ‘purity test’ has done more to undercut movements than any so-called purity testing has ever done. Spreading that talking point is embarrassing & insidious.

The funniest part of this is calling Project Hail Mary high art. Open the schools.

the idea that you have any rights -- to live, to not be executed in the streets, toy not die frozen in a ditch -- is being actively arbitrated for the vast majority of the populace right now, all but the turbo rich. kind of a crazy time to put "you can usually sell your labor for food" in some doubt

I’m not sure why this isn’t being mentioned more, but: IRS policy for 50 years has been that the sitting president & VP get audited every year, in an effort to reassure the public they’re not corruptly abusing the office to enrich themselves.

Was outside my polling place for three hours for this man specifically 🫡 (tbf, better shade by my polling place than most)

90 minutes left to vote, Philly!!!

Trying to decide whether to throw myself more into weightlifting or running is the coolest of my leisure-time/dubiously disposable income related problems.

Exciting moment tonight at a horror writers’ panel where it struck me that the “you have to set your story in the past cos of mobile phones” era is over, cos now your phone will lie to you, mislead you, freak you out, let you down, and do all sorts of sinister uncanny shit.

If prisons are allowed to deny transition related healthcare then that opens the door to denying *any* healthcare People underestimate how much revocation of trans rights unraveles critical cornerstones of the entire framework of rights in general

We are launching the same week as a new Absolute title so that's gonna be The Big Book. But hey if you're picking up ABSOLUTE GREEN ARROW*, a comic about men in power thought untouchable being killed, grab SEVEN WIVES, a mystery comic about what happens after a powerful untouchable man is killed.

@nicanor.bsky.social excellent display name

Israel now going phone to phone trying to argue with people

There's definitely genres of leftist are annoying but if you're shaking your fist at 'radical leftists' while purporting to be left-aligned you're probably just a shithead

"this very senior worker makes too much money" is not a position that should exist in left of center politics, and yet

it is actually very normal for fans of a team to be engaged and excited and to have weird rituals that scan as unusual to outsiders. the thing where some NBA arenas are full of disinterested rich tourists is what we should be railing against
