A highly complex website showing two betting accounts earning nearly $500,000 and $120,000 on a minimal number of positions.

In case you were wondering, Polymarket had yet another spate of likely inside traders betting that the US would strike Iran by February 28.

Per the due diligence investigation service Bubblemaps, the wallets used were created 24 hours earlier.

The Pentagon Pizza Index has been replaced.

abolish ice first and foremost but after that abolish dynamic pricing

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

sophie tracking her period is maybe the most realism this show has ever done

Transgender Chicago man hospitalized after saving baby from drowning in Lake Michigan “I wasn’t going to let that baby die,” Lio Cundiff said.

This 30-year-old transgender man, who can’t swim, jumped into Lake Michigan after a wind gust blew a baby in a stroller into the freezing water.

He’s being called a hero. But now he has medical expenses, and people are donating to a fundraiser to support him.

Don't be fooled by this bill's name-- this is a book banning bill that will exclude LGBTQ books from all public schools NATIONWIDE.

Call your congresspeople and tell them to VOTE NO on this nakedly bigoted book banning bullshit.

it's absolutely not gonna happen but a bitch can dream!!!

re: bridgerton i know this isn't really the shows vibe but, since most of the hetero sex is passionate but pretty vanilla, i hope when francesca gets to lesbianing they fuck real nasty. like i hope the tone of the show takes a real turn

literally no reason to do this other than to expose and harm swers

feeling sad, might buy a sword

Hey! Guys, I write a series on Reactormag called SFF Bestiary. Have you written a book, sff or f, that features aliens based on earth animals? We're on cats now. Would love some new reads. Can't promise to feature them all, but let us know about your book. Every little bit helps.

It’s not just Medicaid funding they’re withholding to MN. It’s food assistance, child care assistance, social services, job training, safety testing, public health, disaster relief. SNAP. Free lunch for kids in school.

They hate us for loving our neighbors, and are collectively punishing us for it.

also ootlander is making me giggle thank you

he's finnick in the hunger games!!

i'm so stoked for this i love sammy claflin

agreed with a lot of these (especially When They Burned the Butterfly and Song of Legends Lost), and will add — whatever Micaiah Johnson and Suyi Davies Okungbowa are putting out, Kacen Callender's YA series, and Hafsah Faizal's A Tempest of Tea series

I feel like midlist SFF is both vitally important and uniquely threatened right now because the midlist is where you find most of the queer, PoC, and otherwise marginalized authors. As well as a lot of really exciting books trying new things! Stuff that's not a "safe bet" but often a great read

Reactor reviewers I love you, I am so incredibly proud of the review program at Reactor, feel incredibly blessed to be at one of the few (but mighty) outlets that supports real criticism, and will fight to the death to keep it going forever.

there's some other adult shit that's good too but not much tbh.

i think the best thing about being an adult is that i can have cookies for breakfast whenever i want. i will regret it later but the point is that im allowed

Heads up for SFWA members filling out the Nebula nomination form:

It is possible to 'save and continue later' BUT if you do this, be sure to ALSO do the step (on the next page) of emailing yourself the link to your partial ballot.

Otherwise you'll have no way to get back to it!

Stay on target. STAY ON TARGET … 🎯

Take the Fire Out From the Wire: Imagining a Future in Heated Rivalry - Reactor How can we find a path forward after the cottage?

Absolute joy to share @thenerdypriest.bsky.social's essay on how Heated Rivalry can help us think about working for a more hopeful future.

I feel like every other thing I post lately includes the word "hope"?

I hope that continues.
