For the first time in a long time, I have written the first page-and-a-half of a story that I feel good about. So hopefully that bodes well.

You've heard of space aliens, but what my ten-novel epic saga imagines is the only thing slightly spookier: Space Anglicans.

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

The way I was a medical courier for like 5 years, including through the height of COVID, but it was before Resident Evil came out so I couldn't capitalize on the hype. Anyway, yeah that's basically what it's like.

Jardiance ad on the Emmys livestream got me wondering. Why is one of the side effects "increased risk of swelling and infection in the perineum"? Like, why specifically there?

why are all of you replying to this about your relationship issues. that doesn't even make sense. a relationship is supposed to be two thing--(remembers im on bluesky)--at least two things. if its one thing then that's called being single

Fun fact: each Mayor of London has served for a longer time than their predecessors. Not so fun fact: extrapolating from this pattern, sometime around 2050 the position will transition from an elected mayoralty to some sort of god-emperor situation.
