“the pharaoh’s tomb is cursed! the necromancer’s ring is cursed! the witch’s grimoire is cursed!” that’s how you sound. everything is fucking cursed with you bro. i don’t care. i’m taking this skull.

Reminder that as an American you’re being milked for every dollar, denied health care the rest of the developed world enjoys, and force-fed a grossly distorted pro-capitalist, pro-military religion that does not at all align with the pacifist, give-your-wealth-away teachings of Christ.

✨ COVER REVEAL ✨ We’re thrilled to share the cover of @buehlmeister.bsky.social’s THRICE-BOUND FOOL! The Thrice-Bound Fool is the epic, rollicking next chapter in the bestselling fantasy adventure series that began with The Blacktongue Thief. Out October 13, 2026!

Sailing to Sarantium is delightful—a talented mosaicist travels to the capital and gets tangled up in court intrigue. Immersive, fun, and leaves an echo of nostalgia particular to Kay’s writing.

One of things war brought that now feel so natural is: saying ‘tykhoii nochi - ‘quiet night’ - instead of a ‘bye’. As a way to wish for a night without Russian drones , missiles and explosions . So, tykhoi nochi druzi.

Fire alarm went off in my London AirBnB building at 3:34 am. I ended up in the street, calling 999 for the fire brigade. It ended up being nothing. Then I thought about how this is every night in Kyiv, only it’s not nothing. People are killed and hurt. Fuck Putin and every Russian who likes him.

I know there's a lot going on But what the US is doing to Cuba is unconscionable

See, this is what happens when you replace sex ed with active shooter drills.

Justice for survivors means investigating all credible tips. That includes credible tips against the President. The public demands answers. It is time to depose the President.

Taking care of business. We need to do this and move on.

I would say Fuck John Fetterman, then feel like *nobody* should have to fuck John Fetterman, but then I remember it’s John Fetterman, and I have to admit that maybe *he* should have to fuck John Fetterman.

And, as much as I love this writer, we have business. Because I cried - like ugly cry snot wept in bed alone - at the end of Between Two Fires. Not out of manly sadness, out of joy and love, for second chances. Keep an eye on this jerk. Going around making cry. Not cool, dude.

After working with the U.S. military in Afghanistan, Mohommad Nazeer Paktyawal died in the country he spent years of his life helping. The cruelty is endless.

I’m home, jet lagged from my American book tour, enjoying some quiet time with my wife and my floofs. But soon I’ll be in the UK signing more books and meeting more readers. Events in Bath, Newcastle, Edinburgh, and this one in London. Come and see!

CAESAR The ides of March are come. SOOTHSAYER Ay, Caesar; but not gone.

"The Christian soldier is an oxymoron." We talked to Christopher Buehlman about the BETWEEN TWO FIRES reissue, writing redemption in a plague, and the empathy of an insult comic. A masterclass in medieval horror. 🧵👇 [Link] @buehlmeister.bsky.social @gollancz.bsky.social #booksky

‘Hey’ came before ‘hi,’ and ‘hi' came before ‘hello.’ ‘Hi’ is most likely a variant of ‘hey.’ ‘Hello’ is not related to either. Goodbye.

So the guy now running Iran is the son of the guy we just killed. Pretty soon the stable genius Trump is going to realize he’s tanking the economy with this shitshow and try to walk away from it. Spoiler alert: we don’t get to walk away from this one. Unless there’s regime change. Here.

There’s a beautiful alternate reality America that diverged in the 70s when unions were strong and we valued education and were tired of corruption and war. The music, the films, the theater that emerged in the 70s were so kinetic, experimental, and wonderful. Maybe that other America is heaven.

A lovely review, and incidentally just a few nights ago at a live event I brought up Verhoeven as a director whose work, specifically Flesh & Blood, has tonal overlap with Between Two Fires.

When a US warship is sunk, and I fear that in this era of drone swarms and hypersonic missiles one soon may be, dozens, hundreds or—God forbid it’s a carrier—thousands of young Americans will die because Hegseth and Trump are thoughtless, arrogant murderers making us more hated every day.

Christopher Buehlman is a gracious, funny, and fascinating guest on our Elevenses @dieselbookstore.com podcast today. He'll be in-store tomorrow signing Between Two Fires. Info: dieselbookstore.com @buehlmeister.bsky.social #BookSky 📚

I like the smallest, saltiest, biggest-pit-having olive in Spain better than that fat, semi-illiterate, vapor-locking pedo cunt.

Iran’s youth protested for change and they were massacred—the government richly deserves to be toppled. My concern is with the character of the men prosecuting this new, unsanctioned war—Trump is a corrupt idiot, Netanyahu a corrupt butcher. The best result would be the ouster of all 3 regimes.

Sneak preview of our upcoming (3/4) Elevenses podcast interview with author Christopher Buehlman who will be at @dieselbookstore.com on 3/5. Here, Vhris talks about “interrogating Christianity” in his novel Newteen Two Fires. @buehlmeister.bsky.social #BookSky 📚 #fantasy

Fuck the US men’s hockey team. Hail the US women’s hockey team. That is all.

Shout out to that part of the brain that remembers there’s another sip of something good left in the cup. Clearly some hunter-gatherer instinct that kept us from walking away before we’d finished consuming scarce resources, but still hanging in there and giving us a tiny glad feeling.

L’église Saint Ambroise looked especially fetching under yesterday’s clear skies. I love that this is our neighborhood church now. I might not go in, lovely church, but I see and appreciate you.

My schedule's opening up a bit in a few weeks. If anyone has some music they're making to benefit Minneapolis and/or people negatively impacted by the fascist nightmare we're facing, I'd be happy to do some pro-bono mixing and/or mastering. Hit me up with your project and let's talk details.

Join us next Saturday for more adventures with the handiest Soviet spy in East Berlin, Comrade Hochs Spitzen-Waxoff!

So, the monkey video. And this guy is our Commander-in-Chief. Not that it’s ok that he was already a fraudster, a rapist, a creepy dad, a betrayer of allies, a deadbeat, and a guy who had his deceased ex wife BURIED ON HIS GOLF COURSE, but yeah. Now also the monkey video. Fuck outta here.

So the fat cats running everything walked into Epstein‘s diabolical honey trap, eh? Would explain why Israel got a blank check despite Bibi’s atrocities and why Putin and Musk got to treat Trump like their bitch. The rot must go very deep indeed. #Kompromat #ReleasetheFiles or #PartyLikeIts1789

That feeling when you just *know* someone is behind you.

I miss the country I thought I lived in when I thought it was just a pee tape.

From a trip to Bologna in November.

Minnesotans are among the best of us. All the ugly things coming out of the US reflect on us as a group. But so, I hope, do these kind, brave patriots on the frontlines of oppression. Minnesota, like Ukraine, is defending more than her own citizens. www.instagram.com/reel/DUJJjia...

2025 was rough. Had knee surgery in February, only now close to 100% (or as close as I’ll get). Flu mugged me in late December. But today? I got on the heavy bag. 10 (slow) 3-minute rounds. My wind is for shit (see also:old) but it’ll come back with work. Crunchy shoulders, but 🤷🏻. Onward.

Trump’s right hand cannot be responsible for investigating his left hand. We need an independent, impartial investigation now. www.cbsnews.com/news/alex-pr...
