About 100 folks gathered today to calling for Slusser to resign as the leader (chair) of Madison County government. His fellow Republican predecessor and rival Kurt Prenzler rolled down his window at us and said he agreed Slusser was wrong to post that Dr. Fauci should be publicly executed

Looks like someone pirated Daily Science Fiction's entire output and posted them here, claiming to have author permission. At least a dozen authors to my knowledge have said they didn't grant permission. If you were published by DFS, you might wanna consider a Cease and Desist.

Memory help? Back in the olden days when Twitter was Twitter, in a forgotten year possibly around 2018, there was a lovely account called something like the shop that wasn't there. Do you have any recollection of it? They stopped posting, and I often wonder if they died. A sort of microfiction.

It's been a long, overall cool (with intermittent warm spells) and rainy spring, so my flowers have had brief glories and much wind/rain battering. I have one more tomato plant to put in, plus lots of seeds (that may or may not come up). The birds' black raspberries will be a bumper crop this year!

My novella Kill All Wizards will be set loose in June. It's a little Jane Austen and a whole lotta bloody barbaric vengeance. If you like Conan, The Count of Monte Cristo, highly opinionated narrators, or old-school adventure, then this is the book for you. thirdarchive.net#killallwizards
Cover image for Kill All Wizards, featuring the title in heavy metal style font. A hulking barbarian wearing a formal but torn suit, with a giant sword in one hand and a teacup in the other, sits before a table with teapot and saucer. He is surrounded by torn wizard hats. The blurb from Nicholas Eames reads: "Hands down the best thing I've read in years."

It's obviously good that citizens with smartphones can create multiple records of these shootings and undercut propaganda and government lies about them. But I find it a little deranging that being an informed news consumer in 2026 requires watching what are essentially snuff videos in slow-mo.

I hope I’m not alone in thinking that polling people after a domestic terrorist murders a woman is a weird, even gross, response to the incident. Imagine if, on 9/12/2001, Gallup polled the US, asking voters if they thought crashing planes into the twin towers was the right thing to do.
