"When they've punished you enough, they'll serve you salmon and potato salad, make speeches, give you a medal, and pat you in the back telling all is forgiven. Just remember, it won't be for you it would be for them."

It was really excellent to meet Yaroslav Barsukov #NoToWar #НетВойне at Glasgow 2024, A Worldcon For Our Futures. Just started reading the ARC of his debut novel (expanded from a #Nebula-finalist novella.) So far, I’m damned impressed.

That was one of THE best beer chats, right on the last day! Man. That Worldcon was blessed.

hey the next Mossa and Pleiti book, THE POTENCY OF UNGOVERNABLE IMPULSES, is coming in June with more mystery, more romance, more petty academia, more gaspunk Jupiter! aaaaaaaaaaand it's pre-order sale time at Barnes & Noble barnesandnoble.com/w/the-potency-…

A sculptor struggles when he is commanded to perpetuate the lies of a deceitful and cruel king… "Set in Stone" by K.J. Parker, ed. by Jonathan Strahan & illus. by John Anthony Di Giovanni, is now on Reactor (formerly Tor.com)! reactormag.com/set-in-stone-k…

Spoilers but The Siege of Burning Grass by Premee Mohamed is so far my best read of the year - it’s rather amazing and you really should get it runalongtheshelves.net/blog/2024/3/24…

Milkshake Duck Brings All The Boys To The Yard.

This is one of my top books of the year. I would really love to see Premee Mohamed on the Hugo ballot for Siege of Burning Grass. Hoping enough other Hugo voters read the book.

Updated the list of works we're considering putting on our Hugo ballots next year. It's kind of a ludicrously great year for SFF in general. Recommendations List: hugoclub.blogspot.com/2024/03/open-d…

This is the second thread calling out one of these right wing pop culture criticism channels on YouTube that I've seen in two days. Is the tide finally turning against these channels and are the attacks on The Acolyte what did it?
