Block. Do not engage.

Easiest interview I’ve ever done; @joe-hill.bsky.social answered my questions before I asked them. It was almost as if he had a key that let him look inside my head… 🤔🤯
Wow. @robincmduncan.bsky.social and I just spoke to @joe-hill.bsky.social for 90 minutes. Listeners of Long Story Short are in for a treat - we could have easily talked for longer.

And you're all going to want to check out King Sorrow at @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social 🙌

It’s an honour and an exciting challenge to take on this role; and was a great privilege to learn the ropes under the mentorship of Pete Sutton, who we wish the very best.
After 6 issues & 3.5 years at the helm, Pete Sutton is stepping down as Editor of BFS Horizons—and current Assistant Editor @robincmduncan.bsky.social is stepping up. Robin already acts as the committee's Editorial Officer & co-hosts the BFS podcast.

To insult two highly respected and free thinking politicians like this is disgraceful.
It just shows how far standards in society have fallen.
Anyone reposting this insulting photograph should feel utterly ashamed.

Your chance to listen to three people talk about stuff, with my guarantee that at least one of those people talks sense.
