eternal and undying life to Jensen, Garamond, Baskerville, Electra; retirement to Times New Roman, Caslon, Didot; death to Arial, Calibri.

This could be a hot take, but I think as a society we committed too hard on the sans-serif fonts. Every time I see a serif it feels like a little treat.

I have long had a scene in mind, I hope I can use it one day, of a trail of pigeons moving in absolute and fearless synchronicity.

41. Birds are scary. Alfred Hitchcock doesn't own the idea of birds. Use some birds.

my new book is out today. it's about separatism and utopia and bodily autonomy and cults and capital and love and revolution and nature and sex and all the things we owe to each other. I'm so proud and excited and nervous for you to read it. i hope you do. simplicitybook.xyz

the cover of SIMPLICITY: the main character of the story, Lucius, getting pulled down and off the page by glowing vines. A pair of hands from a robed figure reaches for him.

tempting, tempting...

is there a Tyrant Philosophers graphic novel possibly going to be in the offing sometime? I can't but think that the opportunities for inventive visuals are second-to-none

content strives to be nothing more than an occupier of time. it is impossible to imagine something that can only be referred to as "content" being a work of art, bc movies, music, tv, books, paintings, etc, of necessity aspires to be MORE than just a time-occupant!

Caroline Renard @carolinerenard.bsky.social · Jul 11

Please stop calling movies, music and shows "content." The conflation is why we're in the state we're in with the arts. We're not making content!

watched it once and thought it war very good except for Paul Schneider who has got to be one of the least charismatic actors I've ever seen

Terry93D @terry93d.bsky.social · Jul 7

reading books of quality, and a variety of them to boot, is just as important.

we love you too! as a reader and writer, your work—Manhunt, Cuckoo, Wyrm—has had such an impact in what I want more out of my books and what I want to achieve w/ my own writing. also you seem like an absolutely wonderful person and a delight

I haven't thought about those in forever! never did get a hold of the last two. wouldn't dream of trying to go back and reread, all these years on. I wonder what traces those books left on me.

I read a book once that claimed that in the 90s a majority of USians thought "from each according to their ability, to each according to their need" came from the Constitution.

the USian political system has been fucked for a long long time
