Grateful to my queer internet besties

This post is discrimination against poets

I finished this book in one day, which I rarely do. Helen put a microscope on our society and where it's going. Well done. #SFF #BookReviews #ScienceFiction

"There is no substitute for the state, whose obligation is to redistribute the nation’s wealth for the greater good of the greatest number of people. But when the state is a malevolent kleptocracy, mutual aid—neighbors helping neighbors—starts to look like radical civil disobedience..."

"The caged bird sings with a fearful trill of things unknown but longed for still and his tune is heard on the distant hill for the caged bird sings of freedom." - Maya Angelou

“I only know that here and now, in this moment of calm between the storms: I’m so glad you’re here with me.”

I loved this story by @samtasticbooks.com in @uncannymagazine.bsky.social. It’s the end of the world but make it funny and cosy (I know right? But Mills makes it work).

My fave genres are: 5. Someone's dead and only this woman can solve it 4. Is it just me or does nature seem alive... and mad 3. Seemingly avg women goes on magic-driven quest 2. Female friendships that are complex but all powerful 1. Everything is not as it seems here

but they won’t stop saying how lovely the ruins, how ruined the lovely children must be in that birdless city. www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazi...

“These are the days when birds come back, A very few, a bird or two, To take a backward look. These are the days when skies put on The old, old sophistries of June, — A blue and gold mistake. Oh, fraud that cannot cheat the bee, Almost thy plausibility Induces my belief…” —Emily Dickinson

Writers! Spread the word! Uncanny Magazine will be open for Flash Fiction submissions (750-1500 words) from March 24-28. www.uncannymagazine.com/submissions/

I was a beta reader for this trilogy and can't wait to see an agent pick it up. Philosophy, politics, imperialism, and more. What else could you ask for in sci-fi? #SFF

On C57, they found a world where everything had a price. Access to the intergalactic trading system would bring major technological advances to The Plots, but it could threaten their agricultural society and their values of cooperation. Blackrock. #questpit #Q #SF

On C63, they created a cooperative society. Everyone shares the work and everyone shares the harvest. That society and its values endured for almost a thousand years. When the archivist uncovers how the council ensured their success, he will face the test of truth over stability. #questpit #SF #Q

The archivist is forced to re-examine the beliefs he grew up with, beliefs that shaped the colony. As he digs further into the archives, he uncovers more than just history. He learns the council has preserved the values of the colony through deceit and manipulation. #questpit #sf #Q

New from @aprilehrlich.bsky.social and Tony Schick of @opb.bsky.social (and me for @propublica.org): www.propublica.org/article/bide... "Under Biden, the [BLM] is on track to log some 47,000 acres of public lands, nearly the same amount as during President Donald Trump’s first term in office."

Today marks 10 years since the start of the Flint Water Crisis. A decade later, kids are still sick, the city is not done replacing lead pipes and families still haven’t seen a cent from settlement funds

Absolutely classless behavior. Libraries are the best. I'm going to go to the library even harder now.
