Not considering my own work:
1. Grass, by Sheri Tepper
2. Heroes Die, Matthew Woodring Stover
3. The Goblin Emperor, Katherine Addison

You've been placed in charge of a movie studio, and have an unlimited budget to adapt any work of your choosing that has never been made into a live-action TV series or film. What are you picking?
For me: PC Hodgell's Kencyrath Cycle and there's no close second

Knights of Guinevere would be a significant achievement no matter the circumstances but a talented creator infamously mistreated by Disney releasing amazing art right when Disney’s reputation is at its worst is sweet sweet justice

For years, right wing grifters and the dumbasses they’re grifting have flooded the internet telling Disney “go woke go broke” every time a woman, poc or queer person shows up on their throws or movies.
In one week they’ve been shown that the opposite is true.

Made the mistake of engaging with a troll. Quick Look at their profile and they’ve only been here a few hours with the sole intention of antagonizing actual users. They seem to be flooding in. Bluesky needs to do something about this so it doesn’t become another Twitter shithole

People keep thinking if they make queerness illegal again we will go away. Pride started when we were illegal. The corporate sponsors might pull out, bigots might ban and counter protest Pride, but we will always be here and we are not going away

I had a an interesting conversation with my boyfriend yesterday. He constantly needs to have music playing (though I make him turn it off at bedtime). I love silence, especially after snowfall. He finds silence loud and oppressive. I’d be interested to learn more about the psychology of silence
