So this suggests that the best scams are the ones that make you think you're in control, especially in a system where you have none. Huh. That feels like a very important insight about a lot of things.

To put this in perspective chestnut trees used to be dominant species in the United States. Billions of trees were killed by fungal blight and now fully grown America chestnuts are functionally extinct. There is no getting them back. Ever. All for a data center. www.gadgetreview.com/one-of-ameri...

One of America’s Last Chestnut Groves Is About to Be Destroyed for a Data Center

A rare 200-tree American chestnut grove in West Virginia may be cleared for data-center development, but the project denies the site is on its land.

I’m guest editing the next issue of Agita; send me your weirdest <1000 word stories about weird art. Authors from marginalized backgrounds encouraged and prioritized. No AI bullshit. The weirder the better. agitamag.com/submissions/

Issue 3: Ekphrasis
Between October 17 and November 17, guest editor Zachary Gillan will accept submissions of weird flash fiction that features ekphrasis.
Ekphrasis is the verbal representation of a work of visual art.
Weird fiction is a verbal representation of the world, in order to unsettle it.
We want stories that live at the intersection of the two. Pieces that emphasize the eerie power of weird art, whether fully ekphrastic or embedded within a traditional narrative. How does the weird seep in as reality is doubly estranged from these two layers of representation? Cursed paintings, uncanny statues, haunted mezzotints-send us your stories of weird art.

There's a wildfire in Sooke, and the smoke rolled in through Saanich inlet yesterday. This morning it's cool and rainy and smells like fire, but the water looks uncannily like Moonlight Sacrifice by Holo Taco. Huh. I think it's the orange microshimmer that does it. www.holotaco.com/products/moo...

I started reading Watership Down to my kid this week. Tonight we read the story about Frith blessing El-Ahrairah, and the line "but first they must catch you" and I shivered in the best possible way, all over goosebumps. I wonder I shivered when Mom read it to me the first time?

I like this analysis, and the way it points out our contemporary biases about the kind of story it is. Also, completely totally agree about the 1951 version. We used to watch it every Christmas when I was a kid.
