It's my birthday today. I've reacted an age that a much younger Karlo could not have conceived of being, and yet here we all are If you want to celebrate, don't worry if you've not brought a gift - just do me a favor and: 1) read something new 2) let the author know how much you liked reading it

Happy Friday before going on holiday staycation, everybody! Hoping for some quiet time before the year ends to read and write Anyway, everyone should check out my latest story: #weirdfiction #TropiWeird #BlueskyPR #PuertoRicoLibre #Latinsky www.typebarmagazine.com/2025/12/05/b...

writers, destroy chatgpt by embracing your inner weirdo pervert. it will never be able to replicate true freak shit.

With the shutdown, I had forgotten that it's Puerto Rican Heritage Month. Great month to sell a story about Puerto Rico in @typebarmagazine.bsky.social

Get LATIN AMERICAN SHARED STORIES (Speculative Storytelling from Many Voices) here: bookshop.org/p/books/lati...

You know, often my stories go out into the world and after their initial splash, I wonder if they're still being read by someone out there But some days, someone tells you a story you wrote was the best thing they've ever read That's a good day

A little preview of how fucking cool Gore Poetics is going to be. Can't wait to publish this one next year.

Just watched The Pledge (2001) starring Jack Nicholson. Solid movie.

Just watched Shadow Dancer (2012) with Clive Owen and Andrea Riseborough. Highly recommend it.

I wrote about how art is work and AI art is fascist bullshit rs-benedict.com/2025/07/27/a...

It’s pride month, which means you’re legally required to read my story about a gay widow who takes horrible tourists on a tour of a ghost coral reef and decides he’s really, truly had enough of these fuckers. www.havenspec.com/the-coral-to...

Surely the headline has a copy error and was meant to be read "take him OUT back".

One of the best queer books I’ve read this year. A great pride month read for anyone who wants to lose their bones!

I'm printing and folding 'zines to give away at the Watch City Steampunk Festival.

The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent (which also stars my boy, Pedro Pascal 🇨🇱)

120 Murders comes out in April. Please book me on your stupid podcast about bullshit.

When we talk about the water wars of the climate "future," we really need to consider AI's very current role in that war. Shut this shit down.

I have a new story out today in the @drabblecast.bsky.social. It's about loneliness and social media. As a nice bonus, its read by fellow Borincano, @kjy1066.bsky.social. www.drabblecast.org

If you have a few bucks to spare this holiday season, a fellow writer could use some help with a situation that could cost him his teaching career. www.gofundme.com/f/stand-with...

My schedule for @arisia.bsky.social has been finalized. Unfortunately, I will be unable to attend the reading on Saturday night and the only readings on Sunday conflict with the panels I'm already on. I look forward to seeing you all there!

A trailer for The First Word on horror, an upcoming docu-series featuring horror writers. First season: @sgj.bsky.social @elizabethhand.bsky.social @lairdbarron.bsky.social Mariana Enriquez and me! I swear and everything. Directed by Philip Gellat. www.comingsoon.net/tv/trailers/...

Hope you all are surrounded by love today

I wrote about the spiciest molecule on Earth. Give it a read and you'll have something to talk about during dinner today that isn't which chemical is turning the frogs gay. medium.com/a-microbiome...

I enjoyed writing a robot cop story for this one. Much more than I enjoy the prospect of "impartial" robot cops.

Regardless of what happens in this horrible election, we need to keep creating, celebrating, and defending queer art. That includes the ugly, transgressive, problematic stuff--the whole range of queer expression. Cede no ground to fascists.

Geomorphology and botany can contribute to the verisimilitude of the description of settings in fiction. stevendbrewer.com/using-geomor... #writing

Just finished Aniara by Harry Martinson. Inspirational stuff. I'm thinking of writing a story in the same setting with everyone on board worshipping right-wing memes or something. Maybe add some enzomolgy in for kicks.

Watched Chompy & The Girls (2021). It had some interesting scenes, but was a yawner for the most part, if you know what I mean.

I watched Arcadian (2024) starring Nick Cage. I really liked the monster design.

I really enjoyed Yellowface by R. F. Kuang. I also learned a few terms I didn't know.
