'It is the cry of the pine as it fights upward into the sky, & the sly tongue of blight on its roots; the hiss of a maggot as it coils through a dead thing, & the roar of that dead thing in its every rotting part. It is the fresh inhale of the maiden, & the knowing pant of the crone.' -Sara Hinkley*

The Subtle Art of Folding Space by @johnchu.bsky.social is funny and sad and engrossing. It's about the people who maintain the meta-universe that controls the flow of our universe. And about food. And music. And one spectacular pun that combines them both.

‘The Best We Can’ by @carrievaughnco.bsky.social is a good, realistic account of the red tape and delays after spotting a near-Earth artifact on an eccentric comet-like orbit. Who will try to retrieve it and study it? I love stories that make me feel the alien is real and imminent.

The cover for Uncanny Magazine Issue 70, "Ocean Swell" by Julie Dillon: A bearded man with his white shirt open to reveal his chest sits in a wooden rowboat with the remnants of faded green paint. He looks up, perhaps in awe or shock as a giant, cresting wave of dark blue-green water looms over him. In white text is the "Uncanny" banner, "May/June 2026," "Issue Seventy," and the artist, writer, essayist, poets, and Uncanny staff credits.
