Mário Coelho @mariocoelho.bsky.social · 12/03/2025I liked the mechanicality of VHS, but I'm aware it's pure nostalgia. I miss physical media in general, though, especially video rentals. I think the scarcity and intentionality of VHSs and DVDs made me appreciate the movies more. 010

Mário Coelho @mariocoelho.bsky.social · 22/02/2024Yeah I feel you, the rules themselves are okay. I just hate that the Anglo SFF scene is seemingly proud of its diversity while being vastly less diverse than, say, literary fiction. 000
Mário Coelho @mariocoelho.bsky.social · 22/02/2024"Based on this information, I cannot consider myself a Hugo winner and will not be citing the 2023 award result in my biographical details, or on this site." Adrian Tchaikovsky is a true chad. Source: adriantchaikovsky.com 040
Mário Coelho @mariocoelho.bsky.social · 19/02/2024I'm sure that's true, but SF is insanely more insular. The Nobel prize recognises the existence of fiction outside the Anglosphere. 120
