Horror "writers" inventing fun new ways to be quislings.

I am opposed to "AI" writing, and I am opposed to the HWA. But I repeat myself.

Carnage for Christmas is gorgeous. Good in a lot of ways, but oh boy did I love looking at it.

At this point, the absence of a physical release for either of Amy Seimetz's movies is just a personal attack on me, right?

I'd wager five American dollars that this shit's gonna sear my eyebrows right off.

IT'S ALIVE! I'm excited for people to get their hands on my slimy (both senses) lil book.

True to form, this is an excellent must-watch. Only thing I'd add is that the "tragedy" framing's popularity makes it much harder to talk to anyone about the *enclosure* of the commons, an actual tragedy that actually occurred, carried out by the state and not the self-interest of individuals.

Got a new one next month! For the first time ever, the back cover copy doesn't mention Florida, but don't worry. It's set in Florida.

The science fiction establishment lining up behind the tech establishment that lined up behind the administration, a few months before getting together to give awards to Tales of Cozy Resistance at a banquet sponsored by an arms manufacturer.

I guess it simplifies the torment nexus process if both steps are done in-house.

"Worldbuild...film at scale" is absolute loser shit. Lyonne joining the war on AI on the side of AI.

I have a lot of thoughts about Recent Developments, but you know what I think is the key phrase here? "Other people's money." Royalties to authors aren't a favor the press is doing for authors, or a like a bonus from a nice boss. They're the author's money.

I'm no mathematician, but by my count I'm pretty sure "an eye for an eye" leaves, at most, two people half blind.

This movie asks a lot of questions I'm really interested in, such as: what if a Movie was Good?

Oh yeah, if you're into Good Stuff, you should get yourself on the Weirdpunk mailing list. You don't even have to open any envelopes! It's all in that electronic mail. And/or cruise the store, pick a couple freaky lil books.

I can't believe tech companies are pouring billions into Gen AI (that nobody asked for) while the people still yearn for an It Follows clam phone
