FORTY YEARS OF DISCWORLD! In the beginning there was… a turtle, somewhere on the frontier between thought and reality. Now, in the midst of our Year of Discworld, we’re happy to unveil the logo for these celebrations!

A stylised version of the Discworld as shown from above on a circular pin. Text reads, on overlaid banners, Forty Years of Discworld.

Since it's come up a lot in both private and public discussions recently, some thoughts about how to engage in the total shitshow that the world is, here in 2024. whatever.scalzi.com/2024/02/25/a...

A Reminder in a Contentious Time

It’s 2024, which means it’s an election year here in the US, and a particularly messy one at that, and also, the world in general is in a state which is best described by the very techn…

DO YOU LIKE GOTH SHIT? Start with Mort, the first of the Death books. DO YOU LIKE DRAGONS? Start with Guards! Guards! the first of the Watch books. DO YOU LIKE ANTITHEISM? Start with Small Gods, a standalone skewering of organized religion. From there, follow this guide to find your next book.

The brilliant Good Omens drunk Aziraphale and Crowley bookshop scene from the book, 5 ways!!! :) #GoodOmens www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LFq... @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com ❤

The brilliant Good Omens drunk Aziraphale and Crowley bookshop scene from the book, 5 ways: :)
The Full Cast Audiobook with David Tennant and Michael Sheen 2021 (audiobook masterpost :))
David Tennant reading the scene at the Playing in the Dark event 2019
Neil Gaiman reading the scene at the event An Event With Neil Gaiman at University of Washington 2015 (x)
Part of Michael Sheen reading the scene at the The Town Hall Good Omens event with Neil and Nick Offerman 2019 (x)
Part of Jon Hamm reading the scene The Art of Elysium’s Heaven Gala event 2024

Fun fact: Neil said about this scene that there there were lines by both of them but it was primarily by Terry, that he remembers this was: something that I just remember Terry phoning me up and reading it to me. And this was the point that I knew this book was going to work. ❤

The Bluesky population meter is currently at 4.99 million, which means probably within a couple of hours we’ll hit five million users, which is roughly the same amount of people in the Republic of Ireland. Have a pint on that, folks.

Der Golfstrom kippt. Zumindest wird das gerade immer sicherer. Für Europa bedeutete dies ein Temperatursturz von bis zu 30 Grad in 100 Jahren.

Ganz genau. Mein Vorschlag seit langem ist, armen Menschen, Rentnern, Pflegenden und Kranken das Leben zu erleichtern, kurz: ein sozialerer Staat. Außerdem: wir laden fucking Nazis nicht mehr ins Fernsehen ein und schreiben keine Artikel mehr über sie. Ich glaube, damit kämen wir schon echt weit.

General rule of thumb: if you get DM'd by anyone claiming to be part of a notable person's social media management team or their agent or any entity closely connected to the notable person in question, you're being scammed. I mean, ask yourself: why would this person be reaching out to ME?
