This collection is a haunting and meditative journey on losses past and to come. Some stories will leave you in tears. Others will comfort you while you cry.

short fiction is so good and yet beloved by so few. everyone should read a short story a day. i set a goal to read a hundred this year because I like measurables and i've been slacking, and now i'm up to #317, which still doesn't feel like enough.

That was my sister’s and my favorite movie as kids. I’m glad to hear it still holds up. Sometimes I’m afraid to go back and revisit media I liked when I was little.

Thrilled to share my very short story "Everyone Drinks at Sunrise" published by @pseudopod.org today, alongside some other creepy tales. I especially love the host's commentary. Liberal guilt, it turns out, *is* delicious.

Ted Chiang's take on AI consciousness is 100% worth the read. I wanted to summarize it, or use flattering adjectives, but I give up. Just, read it. www.theatlantic.com/philosophy/2...

No, Artificial Intelligence Is Not Conscious
Taken to its logical conclusion, this line of thinking is absurd—and damning.

CALIFORNIANS! we need to talk about the primary. our state is fucked up and does not guarantee a democrat will be on the ballot in november. the top two candidates of ANY party will. so we need to focus right now on making sure Xavier Becerra is one of them, no matter who you might prefer.
