I've been procrastinating on the right moment to share this, but the cover release and opening pre-orders might just be it.

AGENCY by me!

It's a cosmic horror about commercial landlords from nether-hell dimensions. #nonfiction #fnar

May I also suggest Slings and Arrows? It’s an older show, but it checks out.

I've created this graphic to illustrate how bizarre this is

That school bus drove up a pedestrian path along the edge of a cliff with a 55 metre drop into the Ottawa River when it started scraping into 64 wooden panels of the scenic lookout

If you want to see a master at work, read @lairdbarron.bsky.social's "The Blood in My Mouth." Brilliant, searing; at turns hopeful & hopeless. I'd forgotten just how magnificent this story is.

While I was in prison, I was the food procurement clerk. It was my job to work with the first cook to design the daily food menu and then make sure the men were fed on a budget of $2.60 per person per day.

How I helped make the best Christmas prison meal, a thread.

And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, stood by himself against his hills, holding darkness within; he had stood so for eighty years and might stand for eighty more.
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, said two vast and trunkless legs of stone stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, half-sunk, a shattered visage lies
And Tiny Tim, who did NOT die, left from the Grey Havens and sailed to the undying lands.

This sort of thing enrages me because it’s always someone who knows all they’ll do is fine them.

People need to go to jail or be forced to spend a year doing conservation work or something, but a fine is nothing.

Sadness arrives uninvited. Joy demands more—it requires us to search, to kindle, to protect the flame against every wind. When we choose joy despite everything that argues against it, we don't just save ourselves—we illuminate the way for everyone around us.

The trees form riverbanks that channel stormwater and also provide refuge to wildlife.

Trans youth healthcare is based in decades of research and supported by every major medical organization in the US. Under RFK Jr, a handpicked panel produced a dodgy report claiming otherwise.

It's a clear example of Kennedy's war on science. So why aren't news organizations treating it that way?

As trans healthcare is decimated no one is standing up for the integrity of the scientific process for these patients.

The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.
