My understanding was that a hard-boiled egg wouldn’t explode in the microwave if it was cut in half.

This understanding was not correct.

2 ongoing convos are dovetailing rn:
1. a holiday shopping $ blackout aimed at big business;
2. worry over small presses closing or paring down.

Let's talk direct action: YOU CAN DO BOTH😀

IT'S VITAL TO SUPPORT indie pubs that encourage risk & diversity. Here's a 🧵 of em you can support directly:

Netgalley email promoting The Relentless War on Masculinity by some dummy. First para of description: „The Relentless War on Masculinity is a cultural, rhetorical, chemical, legal and institutional attack on all males. During the last seven decades it has resulted in the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia and New Zealand moving from being societies characterised by equality (during the 1980s) to now being highly gynocentric.”

Became American in May. I got to vote for the first time in the 18 years I’ve lived in this country during the primary. I got to vote for the second time today.

I’m so excited I could vote for Mamdani both times. 💚

"There are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue."

Damn, what a coincidence. All these news orgs keep laying off the same types of people while a bilious, rapey, leather-faced buffoon provides them cover and shakes them down for money to build a library named for a man who does not read.

@aleksandrahill.bsky.social really brought it with Secondhand Music. I'm not sure which title is cleverer, this or Solitaire for Three. Another hit for Best Canadian Fantasy & Science Fiction: Vol 2 and @ourmankoto.bsky.social. Thoughtful, plausible, a hint of the fear of AI, satisfying. #booksky
