They were so much fun. Made me wish I read more slowly.

@cielpierlot.bsky.social I just wanted to say I recently picked up Bluebird, absolutely devoured it in a couple of days, and then did the same to Terms of Service. I absolutely adored them both and really needed you to know that. I never knew how much my life was missing techno-fae!

This kind of reminds me of a cousin of yours I used to be friends with...

I can think of something else that would, too.

I could never see a single feature with this man in it and still know "This man will beat me if I fuck with him." His ancestry has got to be at least 78% bouncer.

I’m not at all shocked by this. I read it when it was first posted and there was nothing to corroborate it. Sounded made up.

The new show has to have that character carrying a keltec PR-5.7. Get crazy with it. That or have him carry the tiniest little gun. Bodyguard 2.0 or a P365 .380.

Isn’t that illegal? Denial of rights for some citizens but not others?

It’s so rare in the guntube world. It’s amazing how you can find someone who is so intelligent and knowledgeable and then something unhinged comes out of their mouths.

Reread Terra Ignota, washed it down with something much lighter, and have moved on to “Inventing the Renaissance.” Really enjoying it so far, but I can’t help but notice a marked decrease in the number of weird sex scenes/conversations with dead philosophers. Assuming it’s a few more chapters in.

There are a distressing number of tech bros who do not understand dystopian fiction. There’s an even more distressing number of them who are the billionaires trying to usher those futures in.

@adapalmer.bsky.social I have to tell you rereading Terra Ignota while watching the veil of neoliberalism being publicly lifted from the world order is kind of a weird ride. People of Bluesky, read this series. It’s incredible.

Get in loser, we're going to put our bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, to make it stop

Don't smoke anymore but goddamn do I want to light up these days.

We really did too. I’m still salty about it. Rey’s saber and Leia’s saber were petty sweet though.

Listening to my favorite podcasters @iwriteok.bsky.social and @margaret.bsky.social play a role playing game is so much more fun than I’d have thought it would be. It also reminds me how weird parasocial relationships can be. Anyway I really gotta try Pathfinder now.

Magpie some weeks I honestly don’t know how I’d make it through the week without your show. Especially when there’s badass warrior women. Also I badly need to know - please - if you’ve read The Terra Ignota series by Ada Palmer? Cause I think you might really dig that shit.

I am pleased to announce that I have recently received the Chuck E Cheese Peace Prize.

Also @margaret.bsky.social I need to know what hive you’d be in. I have my suspicions.

Maximum Derek! @dg4prez.bsky.social · 05/12/2025

I don’t understand why we’re not all talking about this series constantly.

I’m usually not too concerned with physical versions of things but this is one of those “get a signed copy” things for sure.

Derp. Quadrilogy not trilogy. Still incredible. One of my personal top three.

@margaret.bsky.social just listened to you on btb and you made a comment about an end to political borders. It made me wonder, have you read the Terra Ignota trilogy by @adapalmer.bsky.social ? It’s bonkers in an amazing way. The writing style, the story, all of it bonkers and brilliant.

This album and Ani Difranco were on a very solid rotation.

Excepting of course her pretending to be a Nazi in American History X. That doesn’t count.

Maximum Derek! @dg4prez.bsky.social · 14/10/2025

I hate every word in that sentence but fuck me if you aren’t correct. This sounds a lot like how young me being extremely willing to invest the emotional effort to fix Fairuza Balk, though I’m pretty sure even at my thirstiest her being a Nazi would have been a turnoff.

No part of me understands this. Like even if you want to have a pet gay man why would you want one who is total monster?

So just to be clear - saying the slightest negative thing about the kind of values Charlie Kirk put out into the world will result in getting fired, but saying we should kill the homeless is fine if you say you're sorry?

Oh you mother fucker. Why is it dangerous Mitch? Is it because of what you did to the Supreme Court? Maybe it’s because you kept him from being impeached? www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
