girl not the undivided ceaseless eternal will...........

in a just world you would be killed with 2x4s for writing an op-ed

Between Zero Parades, Esoteric Ebb & Suzerain I've been spoiled this year with dense, wordy RPGs of diff flavours. And Eternal Whispers & a new Divinity on the horizon to continue my indulgence, yisssss. P.s: @zaumstudio.bsky.social pls release Bloodtype Hecatomb as an actual book thx.

Granta publishes an obviously AI story, which is then awarded The Commonwealth Prize. Meanwhile, Olga Tokarczuk gives an interview about how she uses AI to bounce ideas off & explore story development. It's all just circling the drain and feels futile to care 😪

That we continue to persist at all is a testament to our faith in one another.

Did this person watch Emily in Paris and take it as authoritative or something?

Every few years I reread The Left Hand of Darkness or Book of the New Sun and it's their like a psychic nuke every time. Just astounding books, no matter how many times I read them, that dominate my thoughts afterwards.

Sauron has announced that Saruman will be moved to the newly created Committee for Everlasting Peace on Middle Earth. The Witch King will be taking over Saruman’s duties as head of the Department of Orcs. Both have been thanked for their service.

i love when people admit that they fell for the most obvious lying and propaganda campaign in history. these people are cattle and proud of it

there is not a strong enough 'death to america' vibe on this website if we're being quite honest

We killed 85 schoolgirls. We are not the good guys.

average person cheering for war in iran

I'm already sick of "It's all a distraction from Epstein" replies. This regime is killing innocent people because our leaders are all power-hungry tyrants and war profiteers. When you say it's "just a distraction" you minimize the gravity of what's happening and the lives lost.

I see a lot of people arguing we don't need more Evangelion. But a series where the last 3 endings all stress the importance of letting go of the past & moving on, coming back for another series, is a very good bit.

new Evangelion content means new Evangelion memes

This job listing from xAI is the silliest thing I've ever seen. Complete ignorance of how publishing works. Maybe they'll get themselves Neil Gaiman since he can't do anything else anymore 🤭

The guy who owns Amazon shutting down the books section of the Washington Post is beyond parody

Pitch us! Now accepting pitches for Issue 09: The End, and 10: The Future: forms.gle/aczwoktWoi4w...

ICE just shot another one of my neighbors. They had the person on the ground, being beaten by several agents, and then fired multiple shots. In front of the donut shop where we like to get donuts for our kids.

i do not know how this goes on for three more years

Today's murder courtesy of the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals.

A US citizen has apparently been shot by ICE agents in Minneapolis. I’m gathering information, but the situation on the ground is volatile. ICE should leave now for everyone’s safety.

ICE shot a legal observer in the face in Minneapolis. Abolish ICE and prosecute every single one of their deputized terrorists.

ICE agents stopped by protesters after the shooting an observer in Minneapolis, according to witnesse. ICE deployed pepper spray and tear gas.

For the first time in my life I have a collection of completed work that I actually like, ready to send out into the world. I'm no longer buried in disparate drafts, partial fragments, or loathed ideas. Going into 2026 with optimistic (but realistic) feelings towards my output!

We're going to need a bigger Hague.

thankfully donald trump is speedrunning administration and political movement suicide. this should be extremely bad for him and his movement long term. democrats please stand against this the world is begging for you to stand strong against imperialism

Thread of (just some) of the shorter writer I really loved this year: Essays, poetry, short fiction, whatever. No particular rhyme or reason, just things I liked!

this season of STRANGER THINGS is frustrating because the bandwagoned hate is ridiculously hyperbolic but it's still flawed enough –– IE, a redundant pattern of bad plans, poor dialogue, heart to hearts, and so-so action –– it's not worth defending what it does well either

I'm two years in drawing the same person for secret santa. This year, she also drew me. In future years, it will devolve into a 1 on 1 showdown, the family gathered around to witness us engage in a highly obfuscated duel of gifting.

genuinely beautiful that new york elected a muslim lefty mayor the same day that dick cheney died

China Miéville!! Deliver me a giant freaky tome and my life is yours!! Oh look-

My new novel, The Emperor’s Twin, releases today! Thank you so much to everybody who preordered, cannot wait for you to read it. Link below for the hardcover and ebook — audio coming soon. All my love 🖤

the president wont see your cheap dunks against jeffery epstein . But your friends who have ties to state sponsored pedophilia will

I am reading that New Yorker profile of Curtis Yarvin and I cannot overemphasize how much he is a stupid person's idea of what a smart person sounds like. I resent having to know who this man is. I wish to wipe him from my memory.

Brand Manager getting ready for Pride Month

I entered a supermarket last week in Northern Europe that was trialing an AI assistant on those self hand scanning things you carry around. Apparently it recommends accompanying items based on what you'd already scanned. Deranged corporate mindrot stuff

This reminds me: the last few months I've been revisiting a lot of late 90s and early 2000s MMO stuff. Runescape, Everquest, Ultima etc. It's been such a rich nostalgic experience, and become very clear there's a magic to older games that is rarely itched nowadays.

one of the most insane normalized aspects of our political climate is politicians going after their own constituents in the name of anti-wokeness. what are we doing here

She was 9 weeks pregnant. She died. The state of Georgia is making the doctors keep her alive to incubate the baby. She’s been dead for three months. This is REAL. this isn’t about what should or should not be done. This is about having a VOICE. This is about having a CHOICE.

READ. THE. SUBHEAD.

The Pope is filling the catacombs with barrels of moonshine

A new Pynchon, a new PTA-Pynchon, a new Pope, a new country I'm living in, and a new citizenship. For all it's horrible facets, 2025 is shaping up to be a really interesting year personally. I just need to actually get on top of writing 😅

Finding out I'm blocked on twitter by a journalist I really like and regularly read, but have never interacted with, is my personal 9/11. What did I do! 😭

this hasan vs ethan debate

Rockstar announcing that GTA VI is delayed to May 2026 is because they don't want to get smoked by Clair Obscur for GOTY. I will accept no alternative theory.

Momentous day for rabid homophobes who converted to Catholicism as adults and also gay people who loved conclave
