70. Million. Dollars. And the genocide lovers still could not buy the election. I’m so proud.

People constantly saying “this will start World War III” makes me feel insane because some of y’all really believe the West and its proxies can bomb and starve millions and millions of people throughout the world but it’s not a world war until the Western countries are at risk

I need sleep but Michigan

Shit like this would honestly be laugh-out-loud-funny if it weren't for, y'know, the hundreds of thousands of people they've slaughtered.

Basically the height of caricature at this point: Israel is demanding that as part of the ceasefire agreement with Hamas, it be allowed to continue attacking Gaza.

I will be speaking at @laworldcon.bsky.social in Anaheim in a month, and I'd love to see you there!

WOW, new finds from the Ice Age! Two absolutely stunning Ice Age figurines from the Swabian Jura were found, dating back around 40,000 years. The tiny carvings, about the size of a thumbnail, depict two birds, rendered with remarkable attention to detail. Snow grouse, buzzard, or...🧵1/2

I got an R&R that advised me to lean into the horror, and I have no idea how to write to genre so I am just going through each scene and being like "can I make this More Terrible" which? Honestly? Incredibly fun. Put the tiny people in a jar and shake harder.

This sounds SO fun and creepy

THE BLOND is coming!!! ⏱️ I’m SO excited to share that @catapultbooks.bsky.social will be publishing my second novel! If you love Cloud Atlas, messy queers of the past, and books that feel like you’re exploring an archive, then you’re in for a treat…

I’ve been dreaming for a long time of offering an advice column — not just a basic “do this” but something stranger, blending somatic guidance and mystical wisdom and a touch of poetry. Would you be remotely interested in reading that? What kind of questions would you ask me?

Hadestown: still good

Watching Hollywood trailers get whiter and whiter is real depressing.

Why do pistachios and cardamom make literally everything better?

Every time I think I have a sense for the devastating evil the US is inflicting upon Cuba, I learn something worse.

There are few things as infuriating as the process of advising desperate, dying people on how to tailor their cries for help so that numb and easily distracted Westerners might take notice.

I went down a rabbit hole learning about rice, does anyone want a big rambling thread about rice?

I had a lot of frustrations with this season but I'm still SO excited

In response, to the settler attacks Netanyahu has ordered the IDF to "accelerate the legalization of farms and outposts in the West Bank and establish new ones" and launch an "intensive" military operation. www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Following the incident – where two Israelis and two Palestinians were killed – the IDF imposed a full closure on Nablus and nearby villages. The army said that it conducted 'targeted operation' at a N...

I like when liberals argue that the US is too mean to Netanyahu and not mean enough to, uh, Iran.

Okay white people are trying to correct my rice thread again so now you all have to read it again. 😂 (To be clear there is an error in the rice thread. I got Humboldt’s place of origin wrong. I corrected this two months ago, and yet 🤷🏽‍♀️ But hey could be worse I could have mixed up China and Japan)

Virtually every single poll released since 2021 has shown that Black Americans are consistently the most skeptical of Israel and pro-Israel policies out of any demo

Forest have always needed to burn. The indigenous people of the Americas have understood this for millennia, creating small controlled fires to clear away the underbrush. Colonizers banned these practices and called it conservation. Wildfires are what happen when necessary fires are banned.

Parnia Abbasi was a 23-year-old Iranian poet who, along with her whole family, was killed this past June by Israel. I just translated an excerpt of her poem The Dying Star for my book. I have no idea if I'll get to use it in the book, but translating it made me cry, so I'd like to share it with you:

I always love @readercon.org but this is the loveliest one I’ve had. Such amazing conversations, such delightful panels, such a sense of warmth and support and mutual geekery. Thank you to everyone who made this experience so wonderful!

My favorite convention of the year is @readercon.org, and this year they're letting me talk about tea!! Also horror and Megan Whalen Turner and a group reading with the wondrous @andreahairston.bsky.social and @benjaminrosenbaum.com, but: tea!!!
