Edmonton people, if you need another reason to come to my book launch on Oct. 13, where I will be joined on stage by the incomparable @daniparadis.bsky.social, we have procured a life-sized cardboard cutout of the premier. Tickets: the-aviary.net/events/jerem...

That’s a catch 22, because is it really an Act of Service if eating out good humans is my sexual orientation?

Just heard a song by Wolf Mother in a bar and looked up at the sound station to see it was playing “Oldies,” pray for my queer tranny ass.

So… I had this same problem this year, and I solved it with snare wire, a boning knife, a Dutch oven, and two cans of beer (ie, I ate the rabbits). Just saying, it works?

It was STILL over an hour after it burst until anyone could see me, as I paced back and forth, in pain I’d class easily the top ten my life, nauseous and sweating and unable to sit because the pain was so terrible and I CURSED every capitalist bastard ever born… but I also would prolly have been

For the record, I had the same deeply visceral reaction to this as I do seeing someone in like… Looney Toons PJ bottoms in public. Like tell me you’ve given up so hard your friends should and/or presently are organizing an intervention without telling me that out loud.

Omg let them yell till they’re hoarse if one more cis bi curious person pulls the “by the way my bf/gf is cool with us” on or after date #1 having not even considered I might have needed to know that prior to this moment in order to consent I am declaring war on the lot of them. no exceptions.

Also, it’s not “non monogamy” if you don’t tell the person you’re dating you’re already in a relationship until AFTER they’re already on a date with you, kids. That’s called “being a huge dick” and is universally uncool.

Laurence “eff rich people ” Fox @fox-e-laurence.bsky.social · 04/10/2026
Behold: a “hot take” that is actually a goddamn science fact. What a lot of people who aren’t actually non monogamous believe non monogamy to mean is “I fuck around so long as the cis man in the relationship is cool with it and also he can do whatever he wants and queer people are side pieces.”

In practice, AI literacy doesn’t start with building the tool for your personal use. It starts with understanding yourself as a collection of tasks who should subcontract those out to a machine. Almost no regular person’s life currently exists as such.

I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs. This video is lowballing it.

Absolutely stoked to be among the 2026 winners of the BC-Yukon Book Prize. “This Book Is A Knife,” my second non-fiction work, took home the Jim Deva Award for Writing That Provokes. It focuses on a single thesis—that capitalism is the root of climate crisis. Read more 👇
