Gift article of the NYT Woodrell obit: www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/o...

In the early 2010s, Esquire described him as “one of American literature’s best-kept secrets,” and The New York Times said that he “writes about violence and dark deeds better than almost anyone in America today.”

I just saw a white-haired, white-bearded old hippie get into an aging jeep festooned with national park stickers, environmental stickers, FIGHT HATE — and TRUMP/VANCE.

The president is a political cartoon of corruption come to life, a gaudy grifter who is selling off pardons and lining his pockets, building a golden ballroom and protecting his fellow sex predator elites, all the while regular Americans are suffering and struggling to make ends meet.

Run on *that*

These are great. Been thoroughly enjoying Tchaikovsky’s post-dystopian worlds.
For those who haven't come across the Terrible Worlds series - these are standalone novellas, entirely separate to one another in setting and plot, but loosely grouped in conceptual trios...
Next year, a new TERRIBLE WORLDS novella is coming your way from @aptshadow.bsky.social !

Preorder PREACHING TO THE CHOIR now: https://geni.us/preachtc

And dive into the rest of the thematically linked series whilst you wait. Each novella is a standalone but 1-6 are available in bind ups too!

Put another way: it turns out Louis CK was never joking.
Yeah. Before the fall, CK's act—and his fandom—rested on the premise that his worst self wasn't his true self. Now it's the opposite, and that's just not interesting as comedy.
He is just generally an alt-right, unrepentantly racist and transphobic piece of shit. He is also a genuinely bad comedian, much in the way that thin-skinned assholes often are 🤷‍♀️

The issue has been a major battleground in discovery. OpenAI could be on the hook for hundreds of millions, if not billions, of dollars if it was aware it was infringing on copyrighted material.

Communities need used-book shops.

As the trends in our world are increasingly standardized and entrenched by "predictive" technologies that stifle innovation and reduce human actions into economic categories...

We need a full range of possibilities for readers and communities to explore and share.
