Everyone: Wow Emma D’Arcy’s performance in HOTD S3E2 was incredible that‘s their best performance so far. Emma D’Arcy in S3E3: Hold my dragon.

In response to PlayStation going full-digital, Nintendo’s next console should go back to using big, gray cartridges that are mostly empty space and feel really satisfying to push into a slot.

Buckle up, buttercups, we’re going for a ride! I am so so so grateful to Ali Herring for believing in this story, and to Ardyce Alspach at US&Co at @hachetteus.bsky.social for taking me under her editing wing. Out fall 2027!

Painfully accurate.

That House of the Dragon premiere is one of the best episodes of the whole show period. On par with some of the best moments from Game of Thrones.

This article is *impressively* determined to ignore, say, declining royalty percentages & advance sizes? Widening disparity in publisher support? Declining literacy? To instead blame...libraries. I mean, yous over there do need a PLR system, but also. My dudes. No.

I hope who ever wrote this loses each of their fingers to flesh eating bacteria.

If I had a nickel for every time a Star Wars movie related to a tv show featured a plot where Jabba the Hutt’s son needed to be rescued due to the plotting of his extended family, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t a lot but it’s weird that it’s happened twice. Nah but for real it was a lot of fun.

Look I made a meme

When Minneapolis felt under heavy siege, people from everywhere helped and reached out and it was really heartening and made a difference. Memphis deserves that too, all the more so because there appears to be a concerted effort to keep their occupation out of the news

“Ban LGBTQ content.” Alternatively you could just gouge your eyes out instead. You won’t have to see it and everyone else will have a good laugh.

this is the closest I've ever come to actually suggesting a "one neat trick" suggestion for anything, but I'm so serious here. the Virginia Constitution gives the legislature the power to set retirement ages for judges "REGARDLESS OF THE TERM TO WHICH ELECTED OR APPOINTED." make it 54 right now.

What's this? We've got a nostalgic sports horror book with @3ambooks.bsky.social out this summer?? Get ready to dive in, the water's... fine 😈 www.thebookseller.com/rights/trans...

It's Pub Day for my debut novel, THE REPUBLIC OF MEMORY. It's an Arabfuturist story of a revolution set on a generation ship with lots of linguistic shenanigans. Chapeau to tu!

Ahhhhhhhhh it's real ahhhhhhhhh! Beyond excited to get to interview Stephen Graham Jones at @cymerafestival.co.uk!!

Apparently the most powerful weapon in Hollow Knight: Silksong is Hornet’s fucking backhand I mean seriously I wish I could just slap the shit out of everything.

YES, A FAILED IMPEACHMENT MEANS REPUBLICANS APPROVE OF TRUMP'S CONDUCT. THAT'S THE WHOLE REASON TO DO IT

The AI Overview actively gets things wrong about me and my career, how can I trust it with things I don't already know about

CHARITY ANNOUNCEMENT: Devil’s Claim, our OC-based western horror artbook is proud to support the mission of the Native American Rights Fund. 🌵🌎 Stay tuned for more info about our Kickstarter and zine preorders! #zine #oc

I am here for messaging that the THREAT alone - regardless of if it's carried out or walked back - should end his presidency. The die is already cast. You cannot wield the power that man has and say that kind of shit.

If only a dozen Republicans in Congress found the will, they could impeach and remove him today.

I’ve discovered Hoopla and in an effort to curb mindless scrolling I’m starting the IDW Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series and oh man why did this take me so long.

instead of watching the new harry potter trailer, why not pick up some horror books by trans and nb writers for the trans rights readathon?? there are so many good options. For example, check out some of these writers:

Every picture of ICE agents in airports is just this again

Very excited to be part of @thevelvetcompote.bsky.social’s upcoming western horror zine! Lots of other great writers and artists are involved as well.

I guess they rejected OPERATION BLOW UP CHILDREN TO DISTRACT FROM THE FACT THAT WE RAPE CHILDREN

Atomic Coffin by @benedictanning.bsky.social www.thebookseller.com/rights/trans... If Philip K Dick and Stephen King had a lovechild at the height of Cold War tensions, it would look something like this book. GET THIS ONE ON YOUR TBRs Trust me

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him. White. Hot. Rage.

The people who'll tell you today's murder victim in Minnesota shouldn't have turned up to a protest carrying a gun are the same people who said Kyle Rittenhouse was perfectly entitled to do the same thing.

I was puzzled for a moment about why DHS would release the phone footage from the murderer's point of view, since it clearly shows that the murderer was in no danger from the victim.

I made a brief post on my website looking back on my writing accomplishments for 2025 and thinking about what comes next. I’ve also made a list of some of my favorite books, movies, etc. from this year. www.mattbrownwrites.com/blog/2025-st...

This will sound like a joke, but it's not. When TWO "Minnesota Nice" politicians drop the F-bomb in front of live cameras, we're at Defcon 1.

Behold! The Christmas 2025 book haul. Not pictured: books my wife got that I will also be reading and the Redwall books the kiddo got which I’ll be reading to her. Mind you, my TBR shelf is still quite full and it’s only gonna grow over the course of 2026.
