Trump officially rolled back fuel efficiency standards today. The new target for 2031 is about 34.5 miles per gallon, down from 50.4. That means more gas burned, more pollution, and more money out of drivers’ pockets. So much for making things affordable.

Brilliantly moving micro by @eileentomarchio.bsky.social in @fracturedlit.bsky.social. So many great lines... “Come on board,” you said, patting the space beside you, but with an odd rebound, like the hospital bed was an ocean and you didn’t want to splash me too hard.

Please know that I am haunted by some stories we have declined. Please know that sometimes one sentence in your story that is not quite right for us lands in my jaw and will live there forever. Please know I realize you are sending us your heart.

Not to get into publishing discourse on here, but when you’re represented by an agent from Philadelphia, your book doesn’t go on sub. It goes on hoagie.

Sad to take down our beach-read display at the libes. An old family scallop vase, shells from various shores, tub toys, throws from a Ventimiglia market. Alas, time for pumpkin spice and sweater weather picks. 📚🐚🏖️🎃🍁

HG Wells is alleged to have remarked "Every time I see an adult on a bicycle, I no longer despair for the future of the human race”. You could see this shocking chart as an index of civilisation. A country which gets this issue so badly wrong is likely to fail in many other ways.

“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Some writing advice I've found useful is to pretend you're writing to one reader. This helps lower the expectations for how many people will read your book.

Was biting into a slice just as I saw the Top 50 list. Totally worth the pizza burn. I am overjoyed. Big thanks to David Galef and @vestalreview.bsky.social for pubbing "Picture Day," to @sudhab.bsky.social and @wigleaf.bsky.social readers, and to @andrewporter01.bsky.social for his generosity. ☺️🙏✨

Here's someone who makes a big, bold and very popular promise, then actually delivers it. Why do other supposedly-leftwing administrations find this so hard? (Actually, that's a rhetorical question: they deliver for their funders and the rest of the oligarch class, ahead of their voters).

Dems have to run on this hard. Do not let the RFK types try to spin what his own party just signed off on here. Actual Monsanto, the comic book villain of Adbusters days, was shielded from liability over poisoning Americans. I don't care if it's slopulism: this Supreme Court wants you dead.
