Wrote about @samcohen.bsky.socialβs book banning volume for @lareviewofbooks.bsky.social. The volume invites us to consider why books matterβand it shows the many ways theyβre under attack, even here in progressive NYC.

The Queersar not an award 2020!
10 (+1) great queer SFF novels.
V good year for queer SFF; I found it *really* hard to narrow down to 10. But happy with what's on here & more convinced there *is* a gap in the award landscape for books like these.
can't "love libraries" and not fight for them to be fully funded.

Grateful to the journal of East Asian Science, Technology and Society for asking me to review Jeffrey Ding's excellent new book Technology and the Rise of Great Powers. I use it to discuss AI development not as an inter-national scientific 'race,' but an intra-national financial struggle.
