People on r/fantasy keep asking “Why is modern fantasy all so UNORIGINAL and BORING,” and I immediately assume they must not be reading, say, N.K. Jemisin or Vajra Chandrasekera or Simon Jimenez or Premee Mohamed or anything published by Neon Hemlock, and frankly that sounds like a them problem.

they don’t want you to know how they treat prisoners because it will grieve you to know it, which is natural and human, and because of your normal human reaction you will want the system changed. It’s important to them that your natural aversion to how the system works not be engaged.

Gavin Newsom is an incompetent transphobic centrist who is unfit for elected office.

His repeated failures to protect the basic human rights of his own constituents is clear misconduct in office. He should be impeached immediately.

i hope people see this recent microsoft news as proof of BDS' effectiveness; especially in regard to raising publicity and encouraging action from microsoft employees and it inspires more people to join in keeping the pressure on these unrepentantly imperialist tech companies

BDS movement @bdsmovement.bsky.social · 13d

But this win means our collective pressure is working. Palestinians call for increased global BDS and shareholder pressure until Microsoft adheres to international law and ends all complicity in Israel’s atrocity crimes.

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

A huge part of this book is the relationship between the three primordial gods of Day, Night and Twilight, a relationship that equal parts siblings, mortal enemies and lovers. How the God of Day slew his sister and imprisoned his brother because he loved them until it turned to hatred.

Rusty Shackleman @rustyshackleman.bsky.social · 16d

136. The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms
An incredibly intense book about how love and hate spin endlessly into one another. I don't know how the fuck this series is a trilogy after how this one ended but I *need* to read the next one.

They just tear-gassed us. They tried to run us over in a van holding a peaceful protester. They shot us with pepper balls. They dragged another protester into the facility.

moments ago, ice agents again came out of the broadview detention/“professing” facility to escort a silver suv out of the lot.
