Love Galaxy is OUT NOW!! Check it out if you like sapphic romance, murder, and political undertones mixed in with your sci-fi 💫

So preorders are one of the best ways you can help an author! They signal interest to the bookstore and the publisher! Now is frankly an especially great time to preorder a lot of queer & diverse books, to signal that there's still a market despite bans! It's a way you can help plus you get BOOKS

My new Strange Horizons essay is up! With a deliberately provocative title! WHY ALL SCIENCE FICTION AND FANTASY WRITERS ARE HISTORIANS Yes, *all* And, no, it isn't just for the reason you think... I've been working toward this one for a while, very excited to share it!

My debut novel is going to be releasing a smidge sooner in the U.S. & Canada which means less waiting and also I’m absolutely totally emotionally prepared, see I even made a graphic

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days. His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

I think a lot of us get hope wrong. Hope, I do not believe, is an emotion. In fact, hope makes space for lots of emotions to exist alongside it. You can DO hope scared, angry, sad etc... Hope doesn't find us. We make hope through action and struggle. It's a practice of living and is re-made daily.

struck by how much places that do not usually do political journalism have stepped up in this time.

Abolish ICE, prosecute and imprison its leaders, impeach and remove the President from office. This is the only sane reaction to a group of armed men kidnapping and gunning down our neighbors in the street.

every federal agent who ever put on a mask did so because on some level they knew this moment was coming they knew they were setting out to do things that would deserve profound shame at the least, and righteous retribution at the most

There has NEVER BEEN AN IMMIGRATION PROBLEM IN THIS COUNTRY. There has been a racist, nationalist fear-mongering problem in this country. There has been an immigrant worker exploitation problem. But there has never been an "immigration problem."

Oh hey, I’m starting a newsletter, sign up at the link in my bio or website if you want my unprompted thoughts in your inbox at chaotic intervals (also like updates on publishing stuffs or whatever)

I’ve been writing Popular Information for 8 years, and this is one of the most important stories I’ve ever published. This is a humanitarian crisis that has gone unreported.

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

ICE doesn't keep our communities safe.

I am sold seven hundred times over. Very excited to read this!

Global hunger is falling for the first time since the pandemic, driven by gains in Asia and the Americas. In 2025 the world produced record harvests of wheat, rice and soybeans, pushing grain prices down 8 percent and rice prices to their lowest in 18 years. buff.ly/2Jeoldi #ShareGoodNewsToo

Anyway, I did a thing.

These are mostly indigenous communities in Alaska that have been slammed by the storm. The local manager of a small airline fleet says he is the only one doing evacuations right now! Defund FEMA and people are abandoned. Defund public media and no-one knows. FYI, today is Indigenous Peoples Day.
