I had a good time talking with the Toronto Star's Richard Warnica about the very dim state of US democracy under Trump and the tech oligarchs.

Richard Warnica: Democracy has survived two world wars and the threat of nuclear holocaust. Can it survive Trump and the oligarchs?

On the one hand, the Jeeves stories; on the other, “The Remains of the Day.”
rich dudes got freakier after butlers fell out of fashion, like say what you will about having domestic servants but clearly it was some sort of moderating force on old rich dudes having a fancy man follow you around saying shit like "oh dear sir, that wouldn't be very becoming"

On Thanksgiving, I think we should all, as a family, watch THE LAST WALTZ. It’s the first Thanksgiving with all the members of The Band gone.

I admit to being a 1-person PR spox for #JayWright but I'm glad to see his *Transfigurations* (aka Collected Poems Pt 1) is finally out now in the UK. Though he's 1 of the greatest living poets in the English language/greatest living Black poets this didn't happen until he'd reached 91 years of age!

Hooray! I've written 30,000 words toward my next book, SNOWBLIND. It's the story of the doomed Brusilov/Albanov expedition of 1912. In honor of hitting my writing goal for October, here's an overhead drone photo of the boat from our 2021 Arctic expedition to Franz Josef Land for research.

one of the most quixotic of my many years-long quests is to rehabilitate the standing of 90s hip hop group P.M. Dawn. I am succeeding, one person at a time.
Speaking of which, one of my favorite things I've ever read on the Internet is this piece by @anildash.com:
