"This is a God who knows, in his body, what it is to suffer under the hellish forces of the nations that gloat as they massacre the innocent, and this God is going to burn it all down." sojo.net/articles/cul...

Wow, I thought I'd plumbed the depths of Howl's Moving Castle. Somehow never understood that the ghouls in green are wearing soldier uniforms.

Submitting to The Dark so I can feel alive for the 55 seconds before my rejection comes

Yesterday at Park Slope #NoKings with Brooklyn Ethical Voices. 🎼 This love that I have, the world didn’t give it to me. The world didn’t give it and the world can’t take it away.

Marty Supreme, vampire movie 😲

Project Hail Mary is such a good time.

Started listening to The Big Sleep at work today because of this episode. Vivid prose and characterization have me feeling inspired. (Plus there's no line for Raymond Chandler on Libby.)

Statically likely that a given airplane at cruise has a baby walking up and down the aisle.

A printable zine: 50 Ways To Meet Your Neighbor. “32. Picking up trash, generally, is a good way to meet neighbors. People notice. 33. Winter: Shovel someone’s sidewalk. It’s also great cardio.” [millionexperiments.com]

This is Aly. She just learned about capitalism. Certainly not a perfect system, but if that is what it takes to put chippies on the table, she understands. 13/10 (IG: alythebichon)

Who else is writing this weekend?✍️✨

Always trying to find a way to shoehorn an oblique wing aircraft into my fiction... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique...

This draft is coming together folks...! Targeting completion by March 7 so I can go dig trenches in a swamp in peace. ⛏️

for $100 i will eat all injustices in the world

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

Kung Fu Panda fights Deadpool & Sub-Zero at the Olympics Then skates to “…Baby One More Time” the Tenacious D version ⛸️ 🎶

Rest in power, Reverend Jesse Jackson.

Toni Morrison, correctly, of course, said that “Writing to me is an advanced and slow form of reading. If you find a book you really want to read but it hasn’t been written yet, then you must write it.” If you’re afraid of trusting your reader, you’re afraid of trusting your own writing.

The Facebook suggested-content-algorithm is the most unhinged, consistently disturbing imagery I've ever seen. Maybe time for FB to cease to exist.

I love this book

and the fact that you move so beautifully more or less takes care of futurism

New M83 album dropped months ago and somehow just found out 👀

Reminder that the tech companies can take away everything at any moment... As far as I can some stupid AI malfunctioned and disabled my entire google account, then restored it five minutes later.

it is apparently the 25th anniversary of the greatest piece of art Denton, Texas, has ever produced

“They just told me where to stand, and they said: ‘Don’t move. Stand here and be one with the grass.’” A fun read:

Concentration camps: “For 280 days we haven’t eaten a single piece of fruit, banana, apple, orange, or anything fresh. We are all in one big room with no doors or windows. We can’t see any grass or trees. We are all constantly sick."

What We Will Use as Weapons: A List of School Supplies. “This is a protest quilt. It was made by an artist whose day job puts her on the front lines of one of the most grotesque realities in America today. She is a teacher.” [kottke.org]

I’m excited to announce that ARIA UNSUNG, my book with mech-driving witches who use resonance magic with crystal technology, has been acquired by @inkedingraypress.bsky.social for publication in the Spring of 2027! Check out the blog announcement: inkedingray.com/aj-super-and...

I made a punch card for my short fiction reading this year! Each dragon represents 10 stories. Let’s see when I can finish this one. I’ll be logging stories under this post:

this is a pretty good summary of the project I’m writing

Reread the last third of my draft today and yesterday. Got a good feeling about [most of] this!

I just want to say that 1) AltWatcher is doing the lord's work and 2) the altnps account, in my opinion, needs to be outright banned - and I don't say that merely because I loathe it, but because it's unbelievably unhealthy for this fake, plagiarizing, qanon-lite account to have this influence.

Reading rec inquiry: Does anyone have stories about cutting someone off (justifiably) and then that person *earning* being allowed back into the community/life/etc? Not in a handwavy 'of course Id forgive you eventually!' logic but that the person must make real reconciliations

Someone is stalking my every move. 🫣 #WritingCommunity #writers #authors

Draft 2 has surpassed 100,000 words which must mean the new ending is around here somewhere, probably just two or three more scenes left.
