ATTN EDITORS & AUTHORS: If you published original short SF/F/H this year that engages with themes of nature, climate & animals (pets included!), send it our way for consideration in The Year's Best Speculative Ecofiction ✨ We also accept collections & anthos (stories are considered individually).

still figuring out if insurance will cover it, but in the meantime it'd mean the world if you'd consider: 1. picking up my latest game "The Vatican Stole the Menorah and We're Going to Steal Back": jumpgategames.itch.io/tvstmawgtsib 2. or a 20% bundle of all my other games: itch.io/s/176257/jum...

2025 was brutal for games media, but I'm seeing some glimmers of hope as worker-owned sites like @aftermath.site, @rascal.news, and @giantbomb.bsky.social have carved out vital spaces in the games community. Earlier this year, I made a huge Indie Games Media starter pack for y'all. Let's celebrate.

Would love recommendations for TTRPGs, modules, hacks etc. that explore femininity, misogyny, and gender roles through the lens of horror. Think ‘Bluebeard’s Bride’ as a great example of the kind of thing I’m after. Also open to recs from other media (books, films, etc.) I’m researching 🤓
