the worst astrology burn I ever saw was, "all you end of september people were New Year's whupsies." like how dare you

hm. if you want a short standalone, that's Even Though I Knew The End. If you want a series, the Kingston Cycle is a trilogy. If you have enjoyed D&D, The Feywild job is literally a D&D book. If you want a book about reproductive rights while being a fantasy romance, that's The Midnight Bargain.

I don't think there have been any translations of The Feywild Job at all, alas

I grew up in Canada so add "I bet I can sled down that/it appears that I may have miscalculated" and "bela lugosi's ice capades on the lege grounds rink/bowness park pond"

Buy audiobooks & support local bookstores

your local brick and mortar bookshop, I'd say. you can do that through bookshop dot org or your bookshop's website. for audio, I like Libro.fm and for ebooks, I like Kobo but I think bookshop dot org sells ebooks now too.

libro.fm

Libro.fm makes it possible for you to buy audiobooks directly through local bookstores.

The Kingston Cycle is exactly that, three books long. Even Though I Knew the end is exactly that, but it's only a novella. they might be a little nutritional?

The royalties on that trilogy go straight into my pocket, so YAY thank you

It was outside, a lot of the time. as a kid there was a spot in the bush all the kids knew. we'd go there to smoke (tobacco) and listen to the radio. We'd gossip. We'd decide to go play on construction sites (don't do this) or it was cheap, so you could show up for two bucks.

Yes exactly! One day i should write about the strike 52 afternoon but I suspect it's the kind of story where I think it's funny and everyone else will be like 😳

Okay I have been got. Why?

I really need some unmarketable luxurious indulgence right now. I want eighty six word sentences (The Midnight Bargain began with that particular exercise from Steering the Craft, in fact, and while i did split the sentence, it's still in there!)

C. L. Polk @clpolk.com · 24/09/2026

I really feel like "just do it" drafting is getting me down so I'm going to get into a slow return to Steering The Craft I have invited people on my Patreon Discord to join me. I'm not boot camping it. I am tired of efficiency. Density of purpose is boring. I want the luxury of prose again.

Oh it's simple. I signed up for The Tomorrow Project many years ago, and sometimes they want me to come in for blood draws and such. So I was just doing science

Why is internet signal so shitty in hospitals? Do they deliberately degrade the signal?

I'm glad you told me that. I am greedy for all the romances that make people double take because they didn't expect to see themselves

Do you know how it felt to open a writing app that claimed to analyze your writing for optimization and discover that my books were inside its system? I had never spoken to these people. they hadn't asked for a license or permission or *anything.* and that all the big AI companies had done it too?

I’m also going to say that we could have reached this from multiple lenses I use historiography and theory because it makes people listen But any body who’s ever made anything. TOLD YOU THEY WERE STEALING THEIR WORK

cosplaying a full face mask character at comic-con must be really fun for famous people

I also realized something about structuring a novel as a result of yesterday and today's thoughts, so I'm going to post a quick note about it on my Patreon.

Still posting through it Mr. cee bought two pain au chocolat, but he didn't eat the other one yesterday, so he lured me out of bed with it today i did the same thing. idled in a video game, crafting this and that, and writing down my book thoughts as they struck.

HaJ3FgupAm8RrDJW3MHgT9X7Ft27eVaD What is that? That's a hard-coded API token that Flock cameras use to identify themselves and get OAuth credentials, which can then be used to talk to Flock's production servers. Like, anyone on the internet can probably do this right now.

Flock was founded in 2017. If they’re still installing cameras with this firmware, this implies they have *never* conducted a security update.
