Anyway. We are paying like hell for our car culture. Insurance, cars, car maintenance, road upkeep, the incessant road widening which SHOULD NEVER EVER HAPPEN AGAIN.

I do not want it. I want trains and public transit. I would GLADLY get rid of cars.

But here we are.

Most average working Americans abide by laws and norms. Most are kind and decent. But there is growing rot at the top of our system. And its stench can no longer be ignored. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-732

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

You can think it’s good that Massie and MTG are stirring up shit within the GOP caucus without thinking their politics in general is good. It’s not hard at all in fact?

OMG…!!!
THIS LOOKS FASCINATING…!!!
Are you going to World Fantasy in Brighton? Might you like a macaroon? Or a glass of wine? Are you intrigued by the lure of goodies?

Would you perhaps like to hear Peter F. Hamilton and Stew Houston talk about Stew's fantastic new space opera?

Does Stew have the event for you!
If you're @worldfantasy2025.bsky.social my new novel,
Project Hanuman, is launching there two weeks early at 2pm on Friday 31st.

I will be joined by the amazing Peter F Hamilton to talk about the novel and there'll be macarons, wine and goodies.

the symbolism of “Trump destroying the White House for a overpriced luxury vanity project, during a government shut down, days after a historically-large mass demonstration against his regime called “No Kings”’ would be rightly viewed as laying it on a little thick if it was in a work of fiction

On his blog, @jdnicoll.bsky.social takes a look at The Eye of Argon, and how many fans have been cruel to the (then teenaged) author and his work.

All Summer in a Day
Jim Theis’ 1970 The Eye of Argon [1] is a stand-alone sword and sorcery novelette. It was originally published in OSFAN 10. The barbarian Grignr has many skills. Avoiding danger is not one of them.
