Substack’s extremist ecosystem is flourishing The app's recent swastika push alert was just the tip of the iceberg.

It’s clear you put considerable effort into your newsletter. However, Substack raises significant moral and ethical concerns that you may or may not be aware of. www.thehandbasket.co/p/substack-e...

I'm more understanding. The comments reflect frustration with the current religious conservatism that many feel is eroding our rights. When even the opposition says prayer guides them, you can see why some would lash out believing we face either no alternative or a milder form of the same politics.

I have a few but one that comes to mind is Red Mars by Kim Stanley Robinson.

Ha! Small world. Good to hear from you. I hope all is well on your end! I've been on a Pepe kick recently and that's how I came across the post. Dude is a visionary. Again, good to hear from you!

Vital City | Guess What? Government Is Already in the Grocery Business. Zohran Mamdani’s campaign promise is not nearly as outlandish as his critics suggest.

Is @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social's idea to open some government-run groceries really that outlandish? CUNY prof. Nevin Cohen says no. www.vitalcitynyc.org/articles/gov...

It's wild that we still lack real accountability after everything that has happened. I would expect a breaking point, yet they keep pushing boundaries with no end in sight.

Thanks!

Song of the summer. "Endless scrolling." youtu.be/YLh8pW3PRRs?...

She's one of my favs as well. Always hyped when she has some new footage out.

Well, he’s already made his fortune, or at least his so-called 'net worth' in a largely unregulated space, so the pivot feels natural. He’ll probably do it in some off-the-grid lab anyway. That’s just how guys like him operate, and there isn’t enough political will to definitively put a stop to it.

A Door Into Ocean by Joan Slonczewski comes to mind. I read it recently and thought it was great.

Legendary scene.

If you're into thought-provoking, beautifully written speculative fiction, HIM by Geoff Ryman is an underrated gem that deserves way more buzz.

Nothing but bangers.

No problem. And, at the risk of overkill lol, here is my rankings of his novellas I’ve read to date.
1. The Compelled
2. The Swoon
3. Bethany
4. Stealing the Sky
5. High
6. The Midas Rain
7. The Man Who Would Be Kling
8. Anticopernicus

My most favorite to least. Though, I liked them all.
1. Land of the Headless
2. The This
3. The Thing Itself
4. Bête
5. Lake of Darkness
6. Jack Glass
7. New Model Army
8. Twenty Trillion Leagues Under the Sea
9. Yellow Blue Tibia: A Novel
10. The Death of Sir Martin Malprelate
11. Purgatory Mount

The This By Adam Roberts
The Thick and the Lean by Chana Porter
HIM by Geoff Ryman

I recommend reaching out to the National Farm to School Network. They have been surveying producers affected by the cuts.

This documentary is fantastic and gave me a greater appreciation for his talent, impact and legacy. Truly one of a kind.

Ha ha! The other Tim and I were refencing Manimal just yesterday. Not even on a full season and yet still a point of reference 30 years later, even more so than some actual hit shows. Legendary.

If that's the standard you could possibly make the case for Nu Shooz "I Can't Wait"

Really? So odd. That would have never crossed my mind. Wild.

I usually just skate whatever works and doesn’t look awful, so I’m not super tuned into shoe aesthetics. But I’m curious, what makes the Reynolds shoe an “old head” pro model to you? It doesn’t seem that different from what other brands are putting out, or am I missing something?

The five Adam Roberts novellas published by Neotext are great.

The Compelled

Stealing for the Sky

The Swoon

High

The Midas Rain

Perhaps an Adam Roberts guest episode at some point?

That's my guy. Hyped to see him get some shine.

I thought the both were Ted Kaczynski lol!
