I need a timeline cleanse. How about a table of contents announcement! That’s right—despite the world being on fire, it’s time to reveal the TOC for Year’s Best Canadian F&SF Volume 3! It was VERY hard to narrow the list down but it's all killer, no filler. The book launches October 14. Enjoy! 1/2
Overjoyed to be in this, and in the company of so many incredible authors!!!

Canadian citizens and residents, there's a new official parliamentary petition raising the issue of electoral reform and proportional representation. Signing is a direct means of meaningful action toward improving our democracy, and it just takes a moment to do. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Thread on how to detect ai in that viral dog video
Yeah, I mean, I'm critical of any video nowadays that is trying to elicit an emotional response, especially when it's asking for subs at the end. It's weird that all the people seem to end up with the dog they want. And shelters are overflowing, where are the rooms full of people wanting to adopt?

BJ Colangelo deserves a criticism Pulitzer for the kicker here lolllll
There's a lot of talk about the steaminess of #HeatedRivalry, but there are more reasons to watch. Jacob Tierney's direction and the microexpression work of the actors is sublime — especially as mainstream American-produced streaming prioritizes "passive viewing."

Honestly folks, you don't have to be a frequent romance reader to enjoy Demas's books. Really carefully observed not-quite-historical fantasy in the Guy Kay mode with, yes, (queer) romance at their core.
All good, but can I suggest One Night in Boukos & The House of Red Balconies as 2 standalones.

Interested in reading some queer romance to relax after buying all the things (or staunchly resisting the call to buy all the things)? I have some ebooks on sale:

THE SHAMSHINE BLIND was meant to be the sort of escapist read one could use as psychological armor to weather arduous thanksgiving family visits, but then the whole “overturning a conspiracy to turn the US into a theocracy” became unfortunately timely
