Let's bring this back!

Standing offer, always valid: Name five books you love, and I will recommend a book I think you'll like. It will likely be queer. It will definitely be sff.

It's nice that we can have games of this nature that aren't hosted by terrible media outlets.

I am SEATED for this
Hey gang, guess what my next Liberal Currents essay is going to tackle?

Yes, the supposed genius and success of the "they/them" ad has been wildly overstated in one of the most degrading exercises in elite confirmation bias I've seen in a while. And it was worse than I thought. Stay tuned!
Just apropos of some ongoing discourse, I think the political class is describing way more salient to the “Kamala is for they them” ad then is actually warranted

Does Ben Smith know he's allowed to... just not respond to a quote tweet?

How did he THINK this was going to go?

If my family ever finds my bluesky... well, probably nothing will happen.

They already know I'm trans and I've left the terrible country they live in.

And my sisters already know I disagree with them on basically everything.

It's like losing all my teeth. I'm beyond the precipice's edge.

Notre Dame is playing Central Michigan this evening, and I expect a massacre.

Because after getting destroyed by Michigan, beating any team with that state's name will feel like a measure of revenge. And Hannah Hidalgo hates losing more than she loves winning.

Need to feel some positive emotions today? This thread is for you!
Seven years ago today, I live tweeted my proposal to my wife!

In honor of that, I’m going to repost the proposal so it’s here on Bluesky 🫶🏻

Apart from the movie, this was also a big win for my Luma Pro display glasses. They are very much a workable substitute for buying a tv, which was the idea.
Finally watched Superman. Fucking loved it.

Looks like the cold I've been warned about since first saying I'm moving here is about to hit.

I'm prepared, but I am not ready.

PayPal has rolled out a new "feature" that prompts you to leave feedback about an artist that you've commissioned via invoice.

Whatever you do, DO NOT fill this out! To quote Admiral Ackbar, "IT'S A TRAP!!!" It is meant to misguide you.

The military not being the president’s Praetorian Guard is good news for Trump, actually. I'm pretty sure the Praetorian Guard would have deposed him already.

My household received unfortunate news that’s going to impact our finances, so I’m trying to offset as much as possible going into the holidays.

I’m selling my like-new, limited edition Grape Analogue Pocket for $450 (with free shipping within the US) - it comes loaded with over 500 games!

Has CNN been envious of the hate the NYT and WaPo get here and decided to get in on the action?

Interested in interviewing me about my upcoming book, Every Galaxy a Circle? I can talk about writing speculative fiction, why short stories are the best, monsters, baking, outer space, and more. Wow what an interviewer's dream!

Back in the bad country, a contract was signed today. A lawyer signed for me, though I may have to go to a consulate to sign again.

Anyway, and critically, this thing is done. It's a big relief and important for my next steps.

Hi, just a friendly reminder that Freydis Moon just released an audiobook last week and that you should not buy purchase that book at all because Freydis a brownfishing white person who likes to bully their fellow trans and queer authors.

Now say it with a German accent
BLITZER: I want to be precise. Should members of the US military obey clearly illegal orders?

McCLAIN: You're asking an enlisted person for their opinion on what they think is legal. That's a pretty slippery slope. Follow your commander in chief. That's the oath that you took

(Not a no!)

I can’t wait for PEN to comment on the Israeli intelligence forces storming the Palestinian National Theatre in Jerusalem and threatening the whole cast of the children’s performance and the audience if they didn’t leave in five minutes.

Because they won’t.
