Just a little shop of horrors in the bog — where the plants are hungry and the vibes are fabulously spooky. Did you know that Charles Darwin was fascinated by carnivorous plants in bogs and published a detailed illustrated book about them? If you have encountered them, tell me about it!!

Nancy 9/7/26 … Happy Labor Day 🛠️

i often feel intolerant of sentiment in movies. very picky about it, don't like to feel too overtly manipulated. but i love it in music. pile on the cheese

Wow, four hours to go and less than $700 from our second stretch goal! Maybe we’ll make it? 👀 (help us make more tiny books please)

ergot. has published several of the best stories of the year so far imo. Valediction - Jason Baltazar Sisyphus, Bound - David Stevens Late Bloomer - Ian Kappos The Professor of Desire Presents - Anneke Schwob Rolliecoaster Meadow - J F Gleeson Read the archive, it's full of gems.

yeah man "woke 1" sucked ass. I "woke 1" morning from uneasy dreams to find myself transformed into a giant insect

Anneke Schwob's "The Professor of Desire Presents" is one of my favourite stories of the year so far. Fuck. ergot.'s strike rate of putting out short fiction that make me feel absolutely wretched (complimentary) continues to skyrocket.

if they're drinking nounwine it's fantasy. if they're snorting a verb it's sci fi

Cover reveal! Our August issue features cover art from Katie Beardmore with stories by Anneke Schwob, Denise Dumars, Katherine Marzinsky, A. Katherine Black, and more! zurl.co/IG1Oa

I can't believe I missed this – I loved reading this story about a missionary in a strange land in our slush and I'm so glad it's out in the world (and even better)

We are asking the WSFS business meeting to extend this story’s eligibility until 2026, because it received extremely limited distribution in 2025. Only 5,000 copies of the print edition were distributed in late 2025, to a primarily non-SFF audience. It became available online on July 9, 2026. 1/2

WILL SOMEONE TELL ENGLAND THEY’RE LEGALLY ALLOWED TO PLAY IN THE SECOND HALF

it does not appear to be coming home

I know it’s tough to know where to put your dollars when it feels like all the zines are running their fundraisers at once. But consider throwing some cash at khōreō, who do incredible work and deserve to be recognized for it

This is shockingly good, by which I mean shocking, and extremely good.

CABO VERDE, THE ONLY TEAM IN FIFA WORLD CUP HISTORY TO BE UNDEFEATED IN REGULATION

The Pope has decided that instead of competing against each other, Portugal will play Brazil while Spain plays Mexico.

It's been 10 days since we began the annual Strange Horizons fund-drive! So far, we've raised 75% of our base goal of $22K, which will allow us to continue existing in 2027. We would love to get there, and beyond, so we can raise our writers' pay. To help us: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s...

This pitch targeted me with surgical precision on my goddddd

24-hour-update: Thanks to your generosity, we've raised $9635 already: some way to our base goal of $22K, and to our overall goal of $30K in order to keep our writers' pay at 10c/word. Our next milestone is $10K, to unlock a new poem. Get us there: www.backerkit.com/c/projects/s...
