Happy September Equinox! Today the dividing line between day and night runs exactly from the North pole to the South pole, and the sun is directly over the equator. This is an actual image of the Earth today, taken from the Himawari-8 satellite.

I loved the architecture boat tour of Chicago. I am extremely excited Toronto now is doing one...the next time I am in Toronto I am going to have to do it.

Half the politicians in the world right now competing to be the best nazis they can be.

Writers! What's an interview question you liked being asked? One that surprised, or delighted, or made you think in a new way as you answered it?

Seems like awards season starts earlier every year, I mean they haven't even taken down the Hugo decorations in Sainsbury's. Anyway, here's the usual roundup.

Hornytown Chutzpah is much closer to musical comedy than melodrama. That said, "One day more (for the fundraiser)" Let's show them what "Little People Can Do!" Don't let me be "On My Own!" It ends at 11pm EST. Please spread the word and help if your heart urges www.kickstarter.com/projects/att...

Spent yesterday afternoon moseying around Hood River and Timberline Lodge; spent the night filling water bottles and serving ramen at mile 72 of one of Oregon's most gorgeous 100-mile races. Dawn always looks better when you stayed up all night!

Next up is my most well known series. THE TIGER’S DAUGHTER starts off an epic trilogy about two nascent gods who kill demons, fight duels, and kiss. Also they’re sapphics. Inspired by East and Central Asian cultures and lore. (Also I get royalties on it) torpublishinggroup.com/the-tigers-d...

First off, I would LOVE if you pre ordered my kinky Artemis romance novel. I’m really proud of how it turned out! You don’t need the first book to make sense of it either. Let Artemis teach you woodcraft and other things! www.read-forever.com/titles/k-ars...

Do you remember? It’s my birthday today (yes, really)! That means I can invoke the sacred social media rites of the PROMO THREAD! let’s boogie

"In a landmark study, OpenAI researchers reveal that large language models will always produce plausible but false outputs, even with perfect data, due to fundamental statistical and computational limits." www.computerworld.com/article/4059...

A very important piece. I have my own feelings about art initiatives being sponsored by CSR--at which point your longevity is only as assured as how loved you are by the brand. More important is the public & private sectors willing to be in it for the long haul, and for art's sake first.

Random book-promo post! If you've enjoyed my Inverted Frontier series but never encountered the companion novel MEMORY, I hope you'll check it out. It's the story of Jubilee and Jolly in the before-times. mythicisland.com/memorypage.php #escapeReality

Trump had his accounts suspended on January 7, 8, and 9th 2020. WHEN HE WAS STILL PRESIDENT. It was not Joe Biden because Biden was not President.

Part of the Bree Deep Lore is that I lived in Austria for my junior year of high school and attended school in this modest little place on the Danube.

Josh Shapiro: "I was on a Spanish language radio program in the Allentown area and the host said something really chilling to me -- that he now has to think about what topics he's going to discuss because he's fearful he might offend federal regulators of the president."

It’s really all we should be talking about today.

After Douthat says Trumpism is pressuring institutions "to do the right thing," his first example of that "right thing"—the "civic purpose"—is resegregation in higher education

Today, Canada recognises the State of Palestine.   My statement: www.pm.gc.ca/en/news/stat...

SCHUMER: I hope and pray that that Trump will sit down with us and negotiate BASH: And if he doesn't, I'm just confirming that you'll vote no. Is that correct? SCHUMER: We are hoping that he will negotiate with us BASH: And if he doesn't? SCHUMER: We must get a better bill than what they have

I would like the 174 house democrats who voted for this to drop an update on their security concerns

Douthat's thesis is that Trump is pressuring universities and entities like Disney "the right way" to "row toward the great American middle" IOW, those universities and Kimmel are just too left for America, and wonderful Donald John Trump is going to make them course correct.

Good Morning Blue Sky! Hope you’re all ok? Today I’m currently reading a great fantasy novel A Sword of Gold and Ruin by Anna Smith Spark. What are you reading at the moment?

This chaos also speaks to the growing awareness of the profound corruption of the Supreme Court. The excessive H1B fee is clearly illegal according to the text of the applicable statute. But no one can have any confidence anymore that it will ultimately be thrown out.

there is a line from a YES song that reminds me of the Tetons. "Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there" bryanhansel.substack.com/p/photos-fro... @bryanhansel.com has been in the Tetons (and I have envy, not been there in a few years)

No Friend to This House is an extraordinary reimagining of the myth of Medea Out now in the UK, coming to the US in March
