#Supergirl has been out a week or so, so I figured it’s time to release all the #conlang dialogue @quothalinguist.bsky.social and I translated. Lots of #Kryptonian plus three new full languages and four conlang sketches. A LOT of work, but a lot of fun! archiveofourown.org/works/88310311

Nice to see me and @quothalinguist.bsky.social made the credits for #ProjectHailMary (and with Jessie’s correct name!).
Well put. This is a solution in search of a nonexistent problem, all to make it far harder for millions to vote. That's vote suppression, folks.
This Epstein drop is HUGE and utterly disgusting. I don’t see how this man is allowed to remain in office. Where are the evangelical leaders, the soccer moms, the folks stocking up on eggs, the farmers, the small business owners. Decide. Who are you?
This month for Fiat Lingua I did a re-read and reflect on @quothalinguist.bsky.social’s new book How to Create a Language: The Conlang Guide. I go through each chapter and give you my thoughts along the way and some bts info on how it was produced. #conlang fiatlingua.org/2026/01/
