here’s my review of Wake Up!, a novella many of you would really love, I think

In incredible news, the European Parliament has voted overwhelmingly for "The Full Recognition Of Trans Women As Women." Even the center-right European People's Party voted for the declaration. It will form a foundation for their position at the UN Commission on the Status of Women. Our latest.

Recently read "Black Hole Science is Filled with Apologies" by @never.horse. While, admittedly, poetry is hit or miss for me, I found it a strong collection with stunning descriptions among many of the pieces. Fans of poetry, surrealism, and themes of gender/identity, this book is calling to you 🌀🌀🌀

My new genre is "special contemporary disaster"!! 🌟🌟 A lovely review of the (quietly) upcoming Wake Up! <33333 traumbooks.com/wake-up-book...

the extent to which the UK would rather have dead children than trans children is sickening in a just world it would be yet another permanent stain on this country

Art is the best avenue to explore the taboo and grotesque because no one gets hurt. Be uncomfortable, be disgusted, be horrified. Just don't start a moral panic over something that at the end of the day causes no real harm.

Hugo Noms have opened and I want to get in quick with this: there is a fabulous and vibrant contemporary SFF novella scene and the quality is *not* disproportionately located at tordotcom, which puts out brilliant work but does not have a monopoly on it. 5 titles for your consideration follow:

Super grateful for the people still doing book reviews -- often unpaid -- at small venues, just for the purpose of being good literary citizens. With the gutting of every major book review outlet, we need these folks more than ever.

Everyone go cancel your Nitro now. You still get the perks until the end of the payment cycle and if an absolute shitload of people do this they'll crap their pants and try to backpedal. Also if they don't, there's a chance all of your friends & fav creators will work on changing to something else.
