"There are all kinds of different ways to run a conservation program to save an endangered species, but it’s almost guaranteed you’ll never have read anything like what the Somerset Eel Recovery Project gets up to." www.goodnewsnetwork.org/activists-us...

It means so much to me to share that Green Fuse Burning won the Indie Ink Writing the Future We Need Award for Indigenous Representation by an Indigenous Author!!! 💚🌿

I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

I'm never so bold as to claim that the things I enjoy are objectively "the best," but Five Books asked me for a list of #solarpunk books I recommend, so I listed five I think more people should read. All novels, too, instead of short stories! I also talk a bit about one of my own books. #booksky

I love this! From their FAQs in response to “what’s the point?”: MOCKERY IS A USEFUL TACTIC AGAINST FASCIST REGIMES.”

“I think this will be greatly to the benefit of the UNM Press,” Hull said, explaining the role the press plays in chronicling the state’s history, culture, cuisine and other subjects. “We all take that really seriously and feel like we have a duty of care to this institution.” tinyurl.com/3nsdberr

"Olivas takes his most audacious step yet: an absurdist tragicomedy that transplants Samuel Beckett’s Waiting for Godot into the terrain of U.S. immigration policy." —Latino Book Review Review of my forthcoming book Waiting for Godínez. www.latinobookreview.com/waiting-for-... @unmpress.bsky.social

Over on Reddit someone is asking for science fiction for their precocious young reader and the people there are suggesting books that were old when that kid's grandparents were the same age as the kid, for fuck's sake if you didn't know any SF books from this millennium maybe sit this question out

How Octavia Butler’s 1993 book ‘Parable of the Sower’ predicted our climate reality. Set in 2024, the sci-fi classic shows an America ravaged by climate change. Here's what the book got right. grist.org/culture/octa... #ClimateFiction #Fiction #Books #SciFi #Solarpunk #CliFi #BookSky #BlackSky

I got to hang out with Gary at AWP and I wish I could hang out with him at SDCC too! This a very cool collection. The poems in small lives tell a loose narrative about three superheroes and the everyday moments that punctuate their adventures. Afrofuturist superhero poetry FTW

Ozzy went out like the legend he was, singing from his throne just 17 days ago before a live audience of 45,000 worshippers and a TV congretation of millions. And he sounded fuckin' great. Good night, Prince of Darkness. I hope you're up there frightening the angels.

Oh, man. Oh, wow. www.bbc.com/news/live/cn...
