I think any story about Trump's autocracy should be mostly about the people and institutions who failed to stop it. This guy isn't a political genius, everything else just happens to be rotten. 'Toddler Consolidates Power In Household' is a story about incompetent parents, not shrewd maneuvering

It's just embarrassing being alive. It's humiliating.

makes me weep to think of the gifts robbed from us because unaffordable housing has made it difficult for people to pursue their passions and hobbies

You might enjoy E.T.A. Hoffman. I recommend the Dover collection The Best Tales of Hoffman. Some stories have horror elements but they're all fun. Angela Carter's The Infernal Desire Machines of Doctor Hoffman was partly inspired by his work.

I'm only halfway thru episode 2 but it's already 500,000,000,000x better than Aliens Romulose (which did actually have super cool sets too and I liked the gross human hybrid monster).

haha I try to keep all the books by a certain artist/author together, but this is my technique too. On some shelves I've created rolling hills or sharp cliffs for visual interest. Throw in some curveballs based on spine color here and there. 🎢 KOO KOO 🎢

The only upside to AI absorbing everything I write is that I’m helping teach the machine to fucking hate itself

Earlier this month I went to Las Vegas and saw the bleak and lonely AI-managed world of the future at the Consumer Electronics Show. I wrote about that, and other possible futures, and a neat soft-serve machine I'd love to have in my home. defector.com/the-future-i...

If you love hard-boiled, smart action comics, then run out and treat yourself to ALL-TRUE TALES OF WAR by @nidoog.bsky.social !!! I cackled several times reading this harrowing, beautiful WWII story. War is hell, but new Rob Goodin is always a reason to celebrate!

Aw, thanks, Rob! haha now I'm embarrassed by my handle, which was meant for lurking, since I'm not really a poster. Hmmm, maybe time for some Pentapus fanart!
