I haven’t read all of these, but the ones I have are all terrific. It’s a great list to be part of, in a strikingly great year for transfeminine literature.

I can't help but feel slightly responsible, having watched DESTINY TURNS ON THE RADIO entirely on purpose. Somebody saw that $3.75 rental fee on a Calgary-area Blockbuster ledger and must have assumed there was a market for watching QT act. We do imprudent things as teenagers.

Awe-inspiring as usual, Jason!

LA Parents say school-issued iPads and Chromebooks cause chaos A growing contingent of public school parents say school-mandated iPads, particularly in elementary and middle schools, are leading to behavior problems.

They are running the government according to the logic of right-wing grievance media. I cannot emphasize that enough. The point is to create content, and they don't see an actual difference between dunking on Sabrina Carpenter, passing legislation, and bombing other countries.

You know, the way that soccer federations are well-known arbiters of world peace.

billionaires are CATEGORICALLY people who are comfortable making selfish, cutthroat, cruel decisions for personal gain and to the detriment of functional society. i do not recognize the legitimacy of their demands and i will have nothing to do with them 🤷‍♀️

I don't know how to tell you it just sucks to struggle your whole life to communicate, find it in a style of art you have developed, and then knowing out there that there's someone scraping everything you did to steal your voice and put it on something you had no choice in speaking for.

Ah, understood.

Ugh. And based on that sign, it's not like anyone will know who's behind it.

You've got 14 hours left to pledge for @laurenshippen.com's next exciting audio drama, which has now reached its initial Kickstarter goal!

Whaaat? So cool!

FYI, Apple Music still does all the things iTunes did. I don't use their streaming service, I either buy songs in the iTunes store, which is on the sidebar, or upload files from my CDs or purchases from Bandcamp, etc. Still syncs to phone.

I believe this was the bestselling book at the Toronto horror bookstore Little Ghosts the year it was released, and it seems very possible it got there by title alone!

I wrote a bit for McSweeney's about Isaac Chotiner interviewing Santa Claus. Just a little something for the holiday season. Enjoy!

ROGERS V ROGERS is @healey.bsky.social's terrific follow-up to THE MASTER PLAN, a witty docu-fiction detailing Canada's infuriating love of monopolies, starring Tom Rooney and Tom Rooney alone as various characters, including failson Edward Rogers and a regulator who tried to stop the Shaw takeover.

That's so cool, and I'm glad it comes with a grant and not only the accolades!

All I want for Christmas is for the worst people in the world to experience some consequences

A book called the dad rock that made me a woman by Niko Stratis, on a desk surrounded by a computer, an iPad and a coffee mug amongst other desk things

hell of a time to be promoting a book about being trans, the damage done to the body/spirit in the decades spent fighting it, and how you can’t fight city hall (Big Transgender) but here we are. utpress.utexas.edu/978147733148...

America is a country that will test UBI hundreds of times, get the same radically positive results each time, and still look at it askance, but will also put untested robotaxis on the road because a billionaire threw a shit fit.

“Have Yourself A Merriam Little Christmas”

Merriam, a career-oriented lexicographer from the city, returns to her small town for the holidays and meets Webster, a ruggedly handsome librarian, who shows her the true DEFINITION of Christmas.

Oh, wow, congratulations!

Oh, that's really cute.

A rare instance of GenAI making the exact right decision on what should be prioritized as an important fact.

It sucks that professors will have to AI-proof their courses in order to preserve the value of education, but man, someone has to. At this point, it would be nice to see governments actually try to make protecting education easier

Louis C.K. is not a *cancelled performer.* He’s a sexual predator who blacklisted dozens of talented artists & women if they didn’t submit to his sexual harassment & assaults. He’s notorious in the industry for his despicable behavior & this redemptive framing sucks @newyorker.com
