Cached US #KindleBookGiveaway: 6 copies of Villain (Hench Series Book 2), by @nataliezed.bsky.social, which I *have* and *did enjoy* and *do recommend*. However, this is a sequel to Hench (which I recommend!), and cannot be read standalone. It's very good.

The Serpent of Venice, in which a diminutive fool named Pocket, with the help of a dragon and Marco Polo, solves the racism and antisemitism in The Merchant of Venice and Othello. $1.99 wherever you buy your ebooks.

VA website requires it too. It sucks.

Wow. Treasury.gov is now requiring users to log in through ID.me - already a lot because it requires you to take a photo of your passport or driver's license through their app + take a "live video selfie" or video chat with an agent. It's so much personally identifiable data & kind of invasive.

The first genuinely honest ad for generative AI I've ever seen, from Microsoft / CoPilot A mediocre white guy sees his non-white colleague getting praised for good work, he asks AI to *literally copy it*, and then he gets all the praise instead: www.ispot.tv/ad/SoDi/micr...

Always be suspicious* of anyone claiming that it's actually GOOD for you that they have nearly all the wealth and power. *"be suspicious" here means "tax the fuck out of them and throw moldy lemons at their head."

Sarah is twenty-two, newly graduated from college and looking for a job. Alas, it's 2026, and if there's anything available that isn't temp work or gig economy she sure isn't finding it with her Mythopoetic Studies degree. She types quickly, and can pull information together and solve puzzles--

Okay, this book is an absolute ROMP of Fascist-smashing adventure featuring shapechangers, clones, an evil scientist, and a bit of murderous revenge. Come for the Fascist-stomping, stay for the characters! Plus, if enough people buy it, we might just get a sequel and I want that very much!

I find the concept of a "booknook" very intriguing. What do you mean "something to put between book gaps on shelfs"? There is no such thing!!!

This is, to put it kindly, a snow job. There exists a protection of authors' and illustrators' rights; it's called copyright and if you're a publisher you ought to know as much. Not only is this an attempt to paper over a greedy rights grab, it's also insulting to anyone's intelligence.

I keep seeing interesting looking articles... And then notice that it's on substack and nopeing away from it. Which is a real shame for me, and for the authors. But still, nope.

Tristan Grayford@tristangrayford.scot

X and Substack are run by edgelord fascists and there is zero good reason for anyone to continue using either platform whilst plenty of alternatives exist www.theverge.com/report/10066...

Going on record to say that for any company in America given the choice between 1. AI productivity gains mean our 10,000 employees can work 4 days a week. 2. AI productivity gains mean we can layoff 2,000 employees and have 8,000 people work 5 days a week. None will choose option (1).

This is a fantastic book! I have it sitting on the shelf behind me. I think I'm gonna give it another read once I finish the current book I'm on. You should definitely pick up a copy in whatever format you prefer.

Mack Megaton cartoon I did. I wrote The Automatic Detective 18 years ago. I know Ray Gun will soon eclipse it, but not going down without a fight. So if you’re looking for a retro detective story with robots and mutants, I’d say it’s worth a read.
