The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

It's been a good year, and we have the horror to prove it. The Fifth Year Box Set of CHM is available to order here: https://bit.ly/44Nyf51

"Academics literally cannot make genAI go away" we also can't make underage drinking go away and we're not advocating for installing bar carts in every classroom.

This is just going to always be my go-to response to this kind of thing anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...

I keep seeing people mention it's a slow news week, and my brain does not comprehend. How can it be a slow news week when genocide is ongoing and the Doomsday Glacier is preparing to raise sea levels by a couple feet? Not enough celebrity gossip, is that it? www.ecoticias.com/en/scientist...

Just a reminder, y’all: If you love a book, especially an indie-published one, tell the world! They can always use the help. And the authors (and publishers) love hearing it🖤☠️

❄️Happy Winter Solstice!❄️ The perfect day to get cozy w/ some not-so-cozy horror.📚 Luckily, Chthonic Matter Quarterly’s winter issue is out now, incl my story inspired by the horrors of chronic pain, medical gaslighting, rare diagnoses, & rural decay 🏚️💀 chthonicmatter.wordpress.com/chthonicmatt...

🛸📺 I’m currently on the infamous season 8 while rewatching the X-Files, so my partner and I have started yelling “John Doggett!” (in the way one would say “dagnabbit!”) whenever something goes wrong. Next up: an intermission of The Lone Gunmen spin-off series and its uncanny 9/11 predicting pilot ✈️

🩸🗞️🦠 After writing an apocalypse told entirely through HOA newsletters, I (obviously) had to have this collectible serial from @benjaminpercy.bsky.social & @stephenking.bsky.social I ordered direct from @badhandbooks.bsky.social if you’re interested in reading along with me… 🧵1/?

My Awards Eligibility post is "anyone who made it through this year should get an award" 🏆

If you make a billion dollars — or $500 million or even $100 million dollars — and you keep trying to make more, then there is something seriously wrong with you. It's a mental illness akin to hoarding or drug addiction.

I'll be appearing on the web show Galactic Terrors tonight at 8pm along with two other writers to read a portion of my story "Westward I Reach" and answer some Q and A with the hosts and audience. A recording of the show will be up on YouTube afterward

🔥🗑️🚮 So, how’s your 2025 going? Don’t know what I’d do without Inoúin’s thoroughly relatable dramatic facial expressions…

Yes. It's getting really hard to suspend my disbelief for competence porn in these times... rs-benedict.com/2025/11/29/s...

Sure, they've made an environmentally catastrophic mass hallucination disinformation plagiarism Clippy that will destabilize the world, but also their other goal is to replace human workers entirely and let us humans starve. A boycott of AI is the most important boycott of your entire life.

YOOOO come meet “The Reek From Pelton Creek” (it stinks!) you will be okay after, totally healthy and normal, your family too, just a very nice and safe cryptid experience for everyone, no side effects to worry about. preorder!

Yes, it’s a high-concept sci-fi novella. I was high when I came up with the plot.

MONSTROUS ANGELS is out now, featuring my cosmic horror story “Desert Blues” about a guy conning his lovers into ritualistic sacrifice and turning them into monsters. it’s a fun one! all proceeds go to the Avian Haven Wildlife Rehabilitation Center in Freedom, Maine. bookshop.org/p/books/mons...

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

Happy hour drinks alone with a good book is where it's at

"Microsoft warns that Windows 11's agentic AI could install malware on your PC: 'Only enable this feature if you understand the security implications.'" bro what-- what are we doing here, exactly, how can you--anyone be okay with this?

Putting this together was heartening. I'd honestly forgotten that some of these were 2025. In a tough year, I really needed to reflect on my #writing wins. What's not pictured? All the other amazing stories I wrote! (Stay tuned for 2026+?) If you want to nominate anything, I won't stop you. 😘🖤

The idea that individuals are going to be able to "negotiate" better rates with health insurers than the US government can is pants-on-head level absurd on its face

📖🎉 Happy 11/11 Release Day to Dear Stupid Penpal ✍🏼 by @rascalhartley.bsky.social - the first book I’ve written a blurb for 🖤 ✨A joyously weird tale of unexpected genre mashups, overwhelming odds, quotable lines, and queer romance that even the most jaded cynic can't help but get swept up in.✨

never let them convince you that reading is a waste of time or that reading physical books is replaceable. Physical books, zines, etc -- these are spaces where we cannot be monitored, where we can truly be w/our own thoughts for a gd min & make up our own minds. Of course that frightens them

The list of things being sacrificed for shareholder profit is endless. It’s literally everything that makes life worth living. And, of course, it’s life itself. Heartbreak & rage are the only rational responses.

It’s almost that time, Tenebrous Cult. Time for what, you ask? For the world to discover DEAR STUPID PENPAL is a genre-blurring masterpiece that refuses to fit into a convenient slot. @rascalhartley.bsky.social best get ready for the attention 🖤☠️ Out November 11; get it: store.tenebrouspress.com
