@murderbooks.bsky.social for @marthawells.com book signing.

And here I thought she'd outlive Keith Richards and Willie Nelson. She will be missed. www.npr.org/2025/10/16/1...

that johnson is more terrified of seating a duly elected democrat who could force an epstein vote than having the entire government shut down really makes me wonder about that epstein vote tbh

I see this and I question my life choices and the office job.

@naomialderman.bsky.social could you please point me at the sources you used for Part 4, chapter 3 of The Future? I'm having to deal with AI enthusiasm and would like something other than misguided boosterism. I may even make something of boxes and colored marbles... Thank you.

So, not having a bad day, but figured why not brighten the world up a little bit and give out one of my favorites. Marrow by Robert Reed #KindleBookGiveaway

"He reviled, belittled, and demeaned large numbers of my fellow Americans, but he was quite cordial to me" sets my teeth on edge.

Because the world is a bad place right now and I'm in a bad headspace, here are 5 copies of @karlschroeder.bsky.social 's _Stealing Worlds_. #KindleBookGiveAway

@aptshadow.bsky.social I know you have very little push on the publishers, but any chance the Bioforms/Dogs of War trilogy could get a set like Children did?

@naomialderman.bsky.social I was reminded of The Future today by our tech media totally failing to grasp your description of algorithmic/iterative learning. Anyway, thank you for a book that taught me something. And that I enjoyed a lot.

#KindleBookGiveAway Life is hard, I still can't fix this blasted report. But, here's 4 copies of Tripping Towards Mars, which I have, but _haven't_ read yet. The premise sounds great though.

🌟 GIVEAWAY 🌟 It's been six whole months since my humorous alien invasion anthology WHY ON EARTH hit shelves, so let's do a giveaway! Repost, follow, and comment your favorite alien below to enter! I'll pick a winner in a week. (US only, sorry! I cannot afford international shipping alas)

If you see this, quote with a robot that isn’t from Star Wars, Star Trek, Doctor Who or Transformers.

Alt text. This is pretty awful, but probably what has to be done to preserve the service at all. IMLS still has a chance- please make sure to show support.

@nerdnitehouston.bsky.social is there a Nerd Night July 5?

Last First Snow book club tomorrow at Craft Sequence subreddit! www.reddit.com/r/CraftSeque... 19:00 GMT. Please bring your questions, opinions and impression of the book. Hope to see you there!

@tkingfisher.com I've been getting interested in birding (your enthusiasm helped with that) and I was hoping you had some advice for beginners. Any thoughts?

Finished Moonbound by Robin Sloan and was really impressed. Well written, with a light touch and a build up to a resolution that was a surprise and felt right. And according to the word of God, it is part of the Penumbraverse, so I'm off to check out the earlier books.

Not gonna lie, I was trying no to laugh like a hyena when I read this.

Batting clean up from the great Discworld sale, here are 2 copies of Going Postal. www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... #KindleBookGiveAway

Because @kithrup.bsky.social gave away vol 1 and this is one of my favorite series, here are 5 copies of vol 2 to give away. #KindleBookGiveaway www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... www.amazon.com/kindle/redee...

Still boggles the mind that they managed to have a rogue squadron film in production and fumbled it. "do top gun but in space" It's the easiest pitch EVER MADE

If kidnapped, what would you post that would alarm your followers without the kidnappers knowing you're asking for help? Why, yes, book piracy is fine.

#KindleBookGiveaway Because the world is a pain, and Discworld books are on sale, here are 10 copies of Going Postal, my favorite Discworld book. Links in the comment.

@theguardian.com you might want to do anything plagiarism check.

Well, I did it. I used 5calls.org to contact my reps. Pity my senators are Cornyn and Cruz. @algreen.house.gov is a good one though.

#KindleBookGiveaway Things are bad right now so giving away some books seems like a good idea. @scottwesterfeld.bsky.social The Risen Empire is a favorite. At least tough SF space opera and some fun concepts.

"All the presidents and prime ministers and kings and queens are going to be coming to beg me to lift the tariffs.” There's his main motivation right there... his overwhelming childish need for fealty is his main driver. The best thing the rest of the world can do is to stop feeding it.

Apropos of nothing: Kamala Harris predicted this exact moment happening: “Understand that part of Trump’s plan is to put in place a national sales tax of at least 20% on everyday goods and necessities.” She warned us over & over again & she was so right.

@calumgrace.bsky.social I snagged A Nocturne as part of the FitD bundle. This has been a wonderful and interesting read. I hope you do more with it.

Super, super useful!

Inside you is a seven nation army.

Did some pen and ink drawings of the main characters from Shadows of the Apt by @aptshadow.bsky.social This is my first time drawing in this style and it was a learning experience for sure!

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who is coming to save you? This is either going to go great or very dramatically wrong...

@houstonpublicmedia.bsky.social ia.bsky.social You folks do know you're off the And not transmitting through the app either?

I'm hoping for complete aphasia.

It's that time year @cosmicrami.com

I saw this on reddit and laughed and laughed.

. Let's strike a flint and see what happens...

New paper by Corsi's group at UC Davis on long term clean air delivery rate performance of #CRBox. Held up well after an academic year of operation. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Corsi-Rosenthal boxes air filters work really well, even on low speed and over nearly a year of operation. They seem to get much higher airspeed and CADRs than I have measured for particles <100 nm. But bottom line, $100 DIY air cleaner is one of the best options out there.

I always thought people were essentially bright. Distracted, sure, and weak, and beaten, but never stupid. And then you show them, here's the two people who want to be president. One is evil, but you can deal with him, because he actually harbors beliefs.

#KindleBookGiveaway 5 copies of The Quantum Thief by Hannu Rajaniemi Yes, it's a crappy day, but might as well try to brighten someone's day a little.

Similarly, we have a rule that if any of us say it can't happen to me, a dope slap is administered and the person that says it has to either plan mitigation or buy insurance against it.

Proof of pet. Late. But proof of floof.

Sent my kid to alternative school, but all they learned about was gas, flatulence and diarrhea. It was an IB school.

#KindleBookGiveAway Just one free copy of Sun of Suns by Karl Schroeder left. www.amazon.com/kindle/redee... C'mon! It's a free ebook!
