today I feel so grateful for translators, who spend incredible amounts of time and effort to bring books to more people, and whose work makes it possible for books like these to end up in my local library

how you sleep when you had two dinners and don't know what an economy is

i'm thinking about how last year started and ended for me with koji suzuki

A screenshot that says "Your 2025 reading wrap-up" and "you finished reading 25 books, across 6304 pages!" It shows the first book as Edge by Koji Suzuki and the last book as Spiral by the same author.

I want to apologize for having called generative AI users sloppers many times this year... It was wrong of me and I feel bad for the misnomer. I meant to call them "fucko demon sloppers." So sorry.

the Vibe Death of the subaru outback should be studied

A side-by-side compoarison of the subaru outbacks from 2006, 2016, and 2026. The car's design become larger and more boxy over time. The original design is styled more like a station wagon, while the newest looks like a boxy SUV.

empirical evidence indicates that wearing a black shirt will cause my orange cat to want to snuggle, and wearing a white shirt will cause my black cat to want to snuggle

"Technically speaking, you can look at any human life as the sum of a complex collection of chemical reactions, in much the same way as you can look at any beautiful painting as a simple collection of pigments, which is to say, you can miss the point of anything." Jared K. Anderson

Happy to report that not only is @tadethompson.bsky.social included at my local library, but this copy is looking quite well-loved

there's a lot of talk about the Bible in the classroom but savvy voice are asking if the real question is "should John Darnielle's 'Universal Harvester,' a meditation on grief and place, be taught in classrooms?" the answer is yes. every classroom should have at least thirty copies

having a bit of a fixation reading about death, dying, and the aftermath lately. grateful that i caught these three phenomenal books back-to-back all at just the right time for me.

An image of three book covers side-by-side. First is The Unwritten Book by Samantha Hunt, which has the black silhouette of a tree with a single eye. Second is Bibliophobia by Sarah Chihaya, which has a solid primary green background with the title jumbled up. Third is Things in Nature Merely Grow by Yiyun Li, which has the title against a soft green two-toned background.
