Absolutely brilliant electroacoustic set from clipping. with Sharon Udoh, Kid Koala and David Rothbaum. And they also play Dodger, one of my favorite songs of 2025 😭😭😭 Really recommend a listen -

It's a wonderful story with a fantastic protagonist (narrator, too)—get it!

Hold on, friends! It's going to get spooky! To celebrate 10k followers, I'm answering your questions about Palestinian folklore here in this mega thread.

Interested in #RosalindFranklin? With help from her family, we published an anthology of stories in honor of her work and struggle, edited by @bogiperson.bsky.social and featuring stories by authors whose names you will recognize! Give it a look? For you or your local or school library? #Booksky

By @aptshadow.bsky.social, @bogiperson.bsky.social, @spitkitten.bsky.social, Milena Benini and Emil Minchev, DRACULA: RISE OF THE BEAST tells the story of Dracula from the end of his mortal days (as Vlad Draculesti, Voivode of Wallachia) to the start of Bram Stoker's book.

Actually, I made a few mosaic novels/anthologies on the same model. This was another one: shop.rebellion.com/products/aba...

Finished playing Chronoquartz by @infinitestairs.bsky.social - such a joy. Time loop puzzle adventure, with some absolutely delightful puzzles. All-ages appropriate, if you want to play with your kid, it is wonderful for that too. store.steampowered.com/app/3275880/...

Are you a marginalized author (or the editor/agent/publicist of one) who has a trad pub book coming out in 2026 that is science fiction, fantasy, or horror and either adult or young adult? This book critic wants to know about it! Small press strongly encouraged. bookjockeyalex.com/contact/

Alright y'all. This is finally happening.

Just started playing the Frog Detective games with husband and we love the tone and dialogue. The way everyone is earnest and literal and kind is amazing. The autistic utopia we all deserve.

Good literary translation requires understanding (language, culture, genre--on both sides of the translation) and an ability to write well. "AI" can't do that. There are no shortcuts. Treat your work and foreign language readers with the respect they deserve. You won't fool anyone with this.

oh yeah, finished "The Black Coast" by @mikebrooks668.bsky.social . It was a certified banger with an interesting take on cultural taboos and culture shock.

Just a heads-up that you can read 'Kali_Na', my cyberpunk Kali creation myth story that won the Shirley Jackson Award, for free here, reprinted by @tasavvurnama.bsky.social. Written before the Age of Generative Slop & more optimistic than I'd have written now, but there it is:

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

My brand new book Song of Spores is just $4.99 on the Kindle! A fun space opera adventure that's also very trans, queer and intersex (like me). So um, *now* might be a good time to pick it up! Spread the word! Costs less than an iced matcha latte 😆 amzn.to/47ES674 (Associate link)

You're also on Kobo, including Kobo Plus! so that's me sorted www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/...

The Jamaican government has allocated over $1 billion to provide grants and assistance for restoration, reconstruction, and relocation efforts. NOTE: the only legitimate government channel for aid is www.supportjamaica.gov.jm Verify that "gov.jm" is at the end of the url before donating to govt.

Behold our glorious cover art! "Keeping Contact: Jewish Cultural Initiatives across Cold War Borders" Eds. @rkpejsova.bsky.social & @labendz.bsky.social (Purdue '26). Moshe Peter Shamah created this original artwork. The volume derived from two symposia, the last held at @chgs-ramapo.bsky.social.

The timeline is healing

Here with a roundup of what I read and reviewed in October, as always including some enthusiastic short fiction recommendations: www.tarvolon.com/2025/11/03/o...

In case you missed this yesterday!! For understandable reasons

In case you missed this yesterday!! For understandable reasons

That's...remarkable. Mamdani won by a full 9 points. I was skeptical he could get all of that from a subpopulation that is itself only 14% of the population but I ran the numbers and...he could. 67% of 14% is in fact...a bit more than 9%. I hope Gavin Newsom is paying attention to this.

This needs more attention: Zohran SPLIT the straights with Cuomo. ALL of his margin was from LGBTQ+ voters. Every Dem who ever said “we should abandon the transes” needs this shoved down their fucking throat with a ramrod.

I am required to show off this spectacular cover (artist: Juan Bernabeu) for my near future political novelette coming on @reactorsff.bsky.social on Nov 5. An older medic with scant resources fights to support her community as they survive life behind the company wall.

The Barbellion Prize relaunches today. Such good news. barbellionprize.org

just want to remind everyone again that zohran is the one cis candidate i am aware of that had his platform on trans rights written by trans people. i think that matters

While I was at book club, Mamdani won??? This is excellent (book club was excellent too). Share other cool wins?? I saw Mary Sheffield for mayor of Detroit 🥰

Our publisher blurbed this book and thinks you would like it too! Happy book birthday, @bogiperson.bsky.social!

I feel like emacs was ahead of the curve on this

Thank you to everyone who's donated & shared so far for your generosity. But Archita is at 70% to her goal & donations have slowed. Please help her get some security in this terrible time if you can.

Reading this rn and 💜💜💜

The world seems like we are going backwards at the moment, so it is important to take the time to spread awareness of advances. Scientists have developed an enzyme that converts organs into universal 'O' type. This is huge. www.popularmechanics.com/science/heal...
