Tonight's movie. As much as I love this movie, the production values are... not good. I mean the evil sheriff's department is a single floor ranch house. And the FBI office is the most stagey looking stage set in the history of film.
Read a great story in the latest @clarkesworldmagazine.com today. 'Passenger Pigeons, Dodos, Neanderthals' by Jordan Alexander. Now, it's not exactly a subtle story, thematically speaking. But something like this is much more impactful when it isn't. #speclit clarkesworldmagazine.com/alexander_08...

@csecooney.bsky.social is one of my favorite people. Once when she was introducing a bunch of people around, she called me a 'notable sci-fi writer'. I thought someone musta been standing right behind me. 'The Asterist' out October 13th Preorder yours today at Amazon --> buff.ly/OvREuiA #speclit

Futurama Season 11 Episode 10 - All the Way Down This might be the heaviest episode they've ever done. And an early contender for the best of the Hulu run.
A great read. Recommended!

Twin Peaks Season 2 Episode 22 - Beyond Life and Death The show started to get back its fastball at the end. But by then it was too late. People had already tuned out. It was just too much of a pale imitation of the early vibe. In truth, the show probably shouldn't have been more than a miniseries.
Futurama Season 10 Episode 13 - Meanwhile The last final episode of the series (so far), and probably the best of all of them. That final act is *chef's kiss*
Go read this book. It's fabulous.
A.T. Sayre@atsayre.bsky.social · last wk.According to @matthewkressel.net, I'm a hard science fiction writer. Which, sure, I can't deny it. It just feels weird—I never did well in science class. I'm just a dipshit with a film degree. 'The Asterist' coming October 13th. Pre-order yours today at @barnesandnoble --> buff.ly/jPL3RrT #speclit
It's a fun ride of a story, particularly if you like thoughtful space actioners!

Tonight's movie. I had intended to watch this the other night after La Jetee, but I was feeling tired and knew I'd never make it through it. Better late than never.
Twin Peaks Season 2 Episode 15 - Slaves and Masters What is the worst storyline in Twin Peaks, and why is it James Hurley and the scheming wife? Other than because James Hurley is involved.
For such glowing words to come from a writer like Adam-Troy Castro whose work I admire so greatly, means a lot to me. The Asterist, coming October 13th. Preorder yours today at @barnesandnoble.com --> buff.ly/jPL3RrT #speclit
THE ASTERIST. A THREAD. 1- My new book, THE ASTERIST, is coming out on October 13th. It's quite a crazy thing to contemplate, that this thing I spent so much time slaving over in my stuffy room is going to be out there for people to read. It's Goodreads page - buff.ly/HF3Y3KV
It's a little late to start, but I'm in the mood for this semi double feature. First this, the original, then the Gilliam remake.
Twin Peaks Season 2 Episode 12 - The Black Widow Only five episodes after having one of the best episodes of television ever, they have one of the worst episodes of television ever. My God, this one is bad. So, so bad.
Kind words from @schoen.bsky.social about my new book, The Asterist, coming October 13th. Preorder yours today at @barnesandnoble.com --> buff.ly/jPL3RrT #booksky
Futurama Season 8 Episode 12 - Overclockwise My favorite in this season. Kinda feels like it might have been another series finale. It wasn't, or even meant to be as far as I know, but when you keep getting canceled I suppose you're always preparing for it.
That moment when you realize that in Twin Peaks, Bobby Briggs is the actual rebel, and James Hurley is a whiny, histrionic jackass.
Tonight's movie. I actually have never seen this one before. Heard a lot about it over the years. Might be a top five film hole in my lexicon.
I will always be thrilled he took the time and liked my book. He's always been one of those writers I go out of my way to read. And you should check out his story in the current @clarkesworldmagazine.com. I read it last week and it is, as his work always is, top notch.
Thomas Ha@thomasha.bsky.social · 2w agoappreciate the opportunity to read an early copy! always hard to sum things up in these quotes. i don't often make it to novels these days with time constraints. but this really pulled me through quickly. contained, well paced, thoughtful. worth checking out.

Twin Peaks Season 2 Episode 7 - Lonely Souls "It is happening. Again." This is the highmark of the show, and one of the best episodes of anything in television history.
