Cultivate and treasure friendships with other authors, not for "networking" or to accrue clout, but because publishing can be an exhausting and demoralizing business and you need to be able to find joy in other people's wins as well as your own

new plan to save the world: fake an apocalypse and get all the billionaires to retreat into their bunkers and then we just kinda leave them there and/or shuffle around the front door every once in a while and pretend to be zombies while we actually build a better world

We didn't deserve this day.

Seriously it’s like there is a giant chunk of tech people who don’t understand that when you’ve learned how to write, you feel proud, you look forward to doing more of it, you cheerfully neglect your other work just so you can write more

Dramatic scenes at BBC Breakfast.

the objectively funniest period in history was just after the fall of the soviet union because neoliberal academics all got so tremendously fucking high that they wrote shit like "history is over" or "it is physically impossible for two countries to go to war if both have a McDonald's"

There is a correlation between these two graphs.

see? here's the thing. A lot of people are like, the earth is fucked, it's beyond salvation, it's hit the tipping point, but time and time again we see that if we just fucking fixed the problem, it rebounds so incredibly fast. Imagine what could be done if people actually cared

For those wanting to know more about Iran and voices from inside the country (rather than the fash-y monarchists outside), Naghmeh Sohrabi has been translating pieces from folks inside on her blog: truethings.naghmehs.com

This is an excellent rule for storytelling but also implies that Philip Pullman witnessed the death of God as a boy.

A switch 2 costs $449. For that same cost you can get an absolute *ton* of giant millipedes. Why on earth would you choose video games over chunky millipede friends, in this economy.
