Playing hide 'n seek with the @newyorker.com 's food writing was not on my list of expected 2025 reading experiences. 🤣 After I can't find my quarry, I assume they bored of the game earlier without notice and are off at the movies.

Wonderful poem by @angelaheiser.bsky.social boatsagainstthecurrent.org/poetry/g-ram...

Just a reminder to check for your name in this list of books that OpenAI trained from. If your name is there, they probably owe you several thousand dollars. OpenAI cried that if everyone eligible author files, the company will go bankrupt, so I'm alerting every author I have ever spoken to.

this is getting next to no media attention and it’s horrifying. transphobes weren’t going to stop at bathrooms, no hormones for minors, they are going to keep pushing until it’s entirely illegal and no one is standing up for us other than trans people

Hi, new #poetry book #booksky 📚💙 Congrats, @slanders.bsky.social !! 😍📖🎉 #roofbooks #seguefoundation What to Carry into the Future by Susan Landers

Not so interested in horror much right now, at least not poorly made horror. Yet, like a desperate monster poking a claw up through the surface, this "refine with..." nightmare continually creeps out in Docs / Drive / Workspace, etc. Garlic & stakes don't work. What do you have to save us all?

You know, I reread The Great Gatsby this week, and it was much better this time, decades later.

I'm never sure how to start on social media, so I'll just share something I've read! Today it's The Notebook of Doom: Whack of the P-Rex. Troy Cummings does really great work in coming up with fun monsters and the jokes landed right on target. A great series for kids in the early elementary range.
