Reading some Stanislaw Lem interviews today and came across this gem of his on the predispositions of writers: “[One must have] a thoughtful and reflexive nature, [a] disregard for the allure of making money, and so on.”

She rails against corporate pillaging of natural resources and destruction of the environment. She makes rich and powerful men bend to her will to accomplish her environmentalist agenda.

I’ve been not-watching all the Batman movies while editing lately, and while this ridiculous entry has many, many (many) faults, I can’t help but love this truly tragic almost-hero.

Intrigued by the notion of wizards who get their powers by consuming the bones of extinct magical creatures from the La Brea Tar Pits in a transformed Los Angeles? Consider snagging my novelette, “The Wolf and the Manticore”. www.kobo.com/us/en/ebook/... www.amazon.com/Wolf-Mantico...

A peer reviewed study shows a promising link between flu and shingles vaccines and a reduced risk of dementia. A heroin addict who cut off a raccoon’s penis for “further study” says these vaccines cause autism. For busy Americans, it can be hard to know who to trust.

In 1991, a subatomic particle traveling *just* under the speed of light — and I do mean "just" — slammed into Earth's atmosphere with the energy of a major league basebal pitch! But... where did it come from? And how? A thing I wrote: www.scientificamerican.com/article/wher... 🔭 🧪

scientificamerican.com

Where did the ‘OMG’ particle come from?!

A single subatomic particle from deep space had the same energy as a baseball pitch, and scientists still don’t know how it got here

Just got back from a Lord of the Rings themed high tea at a tea room here in SD, and I was surprised and pleased to have won this delightful tea (and barrel) at trivia! The 100s of hours spent watching the extended editions whenever I’ve been sick paid off, heh

Nowadays, whenever I have a bout of formless anxiety, I get to play the game of is it the world, is it my life, or is it the perimenopause of it all? The answer is undoubtedly all three, and the solution is to accept I’m anxious, then try to go for a run to tamp the nerves back down

Also it’d be cool to see people re-learn that skill. We had an oral tradition for so long… I’m convinced our memory for songs and melodies wouldn’t be as well-developed if not for that

I’ve got a new essay out in the Jan/Feb Asimov’s on empathy and Fahrenheit 451. I wrote this one at the beginning of last year and it’s only become more relevant in the last 12 months:

I don’t usually post about politics or current events (or really much of anything), but in case you had any false ideas about where I stand ::ahem:: ABOLISH ICE AND FUCK FASCISM And I don’t see either as being even a remotely controversial hot take

Rob Reiner either made your favorite movie, or made somebody you know’s favorite movie. If you’re a Californian, he’s also part of the reason you or your friends can get married. He has changed more lives for the better than this asshole commenting on him ever did.

The solution is the same: a societal shift towards the sense of a shared responsibility for our communities. Not that one single man should bootstrap up an entire community. This concludes this “reading way too deeply into a Xmas classic” mini rant for the evening

It reminds me of the criticism once levied at millenials (and now at Gen Z) about how we’re ungrateful for what we have, and we don’t have the futures we were once promised because we didn’t work hard enough and spend our money on avocado toast at brunch or we took too many mental health days.

I’m all for being community-minded and being grateful for what you have, but the idea that not a single person could ever help this poor man take a couple weeks off to see the Parthenon so he could live without profound regrets? Come on

Kelly Lagor @klagor.bsky.social · 16/12/2025

I didn’t see It’s a Wonderful Life before until a few years ago and it just made me mad. Your entire community only produced one kind and competent person (you), therefore you’ll never be able to go to college or take a vacation or do anything for your own happiness? Be grateful! Fuck right off!

Still remember sitting in a dive bar in Chicago around this time a year or two ago with my friend Jeff when the Malört fairy swept through the bar, passing these out to all the patrons.
