Seconding this. Offering to help. 🙋‍♂️

Will other countries respond by reinstating the CIA World Factbook, accurate information about vaccine efficacy, etc? I’m certain copies of these resources exist.

28 Years Later: The Bone Temple more than made up for the aimless lameness of its predecessor. That was a proper goddamn horror movie, and it stuck the landing.

Once you’ve been at it a while and tried certain markets more than once, you start to get a sense of response times. Oh, and I also keep my shitlist and my list of tiered/personal rejections in this document. It a mag rejects my story for being over length when it wasn’t, I won’t be subbing again.

Google Doc, arranged by piece. Date I finished, embargo until (to leave editing time), and list of suitable markets. When I start submitting, I note where I sent it, how (Submittable, email, etc), and any comments. Date and comments for rejections and acceptances as well. It’s good data.

List of thoughts from queer culture that reframe ideas about life.

Too good not to share.

I have never been a fan either.

Thank fuck.

It’s rained every day this calendar year down here.

First primrose of the season. The (irritating) neighbors even have a crocus blooming, and the daffodils by my front door are only a few days out. Nice change from all this fucking rain. I’m not one to whinge about the weather, but JFC I am sick of this shit.

I’m watching mostly for Kate Butch. The contrast with USA s18 is remarkable though: the queens this time are mature enough to have their own points of view. In contrast, here you have a lot of vapidity and shrieking. And vocal fry. ✂️

That’s disgusting.

Give it a try and see if you like it?

Good lord what the fuck now

One meme to save us all.

I didn’t love season 4, but I think For All Mankind is one of the best series ever. It charts whole new categories of goodness and relevance.

So, it’s official: the Cornwall chapter ends and the Sussex chapter begins on May 3. I hope I haven’t inadvertently fucked myself by arranging to move over a bank holiday weekend, but whatever. I have an AirBnB in Worthing for a month. Will have the stuff I’m keeping stored. And yeah. Finally. 🥂

I’m in England but I feel the same way. Loved the book when it came out but have zero interest in the films.

Interestingly, I would X all the same ones you did if I were to fill one of those out.

An excellent read.

Greetings from Moisture House. My conservatory roof, unfixed by my landlord, is leaking badly. The whole floor in there is wet, and it’s getting into the living room.

Five concerts you’ve seen with women lead singers

Eurythmics
Tori Amos
Kylie Minogue
Lady Gaga
Cat Power

Interestingly, we were seated a few seats down from Hong Kong film director Wong Kar-Wai at the Cat Power show (which was in Macau). It was an interesting night.

I sometimes wonder about prevailing health narratives. What is this nonsense about trying to prolong your underfunded retirement years? To live longer in this world as the climate collapses and oligarchs have all the resources and the arts are all AI? Hard pass.

With respect, and I realize this is a personal comfort level thing, but why share a meme image with the annoying asterisks over the swear words? Why give him the benefit of the doubt by putting fig leaves over what he said? You’re not going to get censored on Bluesky for sharing an image file.

View from my last apartment there before moving to England.

That sounds like a nightmare

Right!!?

Either that or she dressed up as one.
