If your Marxist critique doesn’t recognize race as a structure of domination, then it’s worth fuck all to me.

unfortunately, we found a fair number of best of sf anthos were just authors turned editor publishing their friends in a circle jerk of white male writers propping each other up and then by dint of that creating "classics" that did not hold up
NGDL, that TOC is fire. I respect both the usual range of what many call “classic” or “must-read” authors & stories & the very obvious work to counteract the traditionally exclusionary element of that perspective via a broad inclusion of and focus on BIPOC, non-European & modern era creators.

Should have taken photo of adorable possum that's been getting into our chicken coop, who I finally caught and rehomed. Tis season of Dogs Murder Everything; was anxious to re-home it before it inevitably had 30 babies the dogs would murder over 2 weeks and traumatized me for life like last time

This is also true in Canada, on both Amazon and Apple at least.
As pointed out to me by @tiffpocalypse.com, @seananmcguire.bsky.social's The Rising: The Newsflesh is on US ebook sale for $3. I decided this deserved a larger budget, so I got 10 copies for random giveaway.

As a child protection professional, I can tell you the death penalty is NOT an awesome solution to child sexual abuse. Most children are abused by family members; they will not report if their family members will die as a result.

He’s betting it can unite a majority across divided regions and broaden the party’s coalition.
