✨Asunder is out in the UK today!✨
Shortlisted for the Nebula and Locus Awards, it’s a fantasy about a woman hellbent on survival…and the talkative man she accidentally binds to her shadow.*
*She was trying to extort him, one thing led to another.

the people of MN have been murdered, brutalized and kidnapped for weeks now and have remained *amazingly* peaceful in the face of it. lecturing citizens to not “take the bait” etc is pretty disrespectful after a point and avoids the real question: how long are they supposed to take this, undefended?
State investigators have been on the scene in North Minneapolis.
I know you’re angry. I’m angry. What Donald Trump wants is violence in the streets.
But Minnesota will remain an island of decency, of justice, of community, and of peace.
Don’t give him what he wants.

to scan a QR code with your phone, you have to stop filming, which would seem to be a great way to encourage people to not film ICE abuses, then get beaten for trying to get close enough to scan a QR code

If you haven’t read One Message Remains yet, then I haven’t stopped staring balefully at you through your kitchen window when you least expect me
*gloatily* V. pleased to have written two entire books about how terrible empires are (THE SIEGE OF BURNING GRASS, containing two extremely stupid and self-destructive empires, and ONE MESSAGE REMAINS, containing, mostly, one, but in active acquisition mode)
Read enough science fiction, and you'll start to notice that many authors seem pretty invested in the idea of galactic empires (clearly based on real-world empires); @jdnicoll.bsky.social asks just what the hell such authors are thinking.

Every time I see someone yammering about abolish ICE / policing and how DEEPLY UNPOPULAR it is, I want to remind them that the GOP abolished Roe v. Wade and that was also deeply, deeply unpopular, and here they are, in charge of everything still.

If you cannot make “these people are leaving BABIES in CARS in WINTER and then returning them to their carekeepers with BRUISES” into popular sentiment as a politician, you’re either inept or you want this to keep happening.

Today's short fiction read: "The Death of Demons" by Brandon Case in Trollbreath; a rather charming little story that starts out as "retired adventurer regales the tavern with stories" but quickly grows beyond those borders.
