Folks, can y'all help me out? I'm trying to find a bit of fanfic that was in my 11/18 morning feed. I know was on AO3 but didn't bookmark the skeet.

It was Bucky texting Sam during the events of The Thunderbolts.

Google is being notably less than helpful.

Anyone able to help me find this?

Reading the advice emails released today show “journalist” Michael Wolff gave Epstein about how to use Trump actions to control him and thinking about all the media men and women who’ve covered for predators. I touched on that horrific reality in below essay.
Re-upping my Epstein essay from August as new information emerges today.

Caution: disturbing descriptions of my and others’ sexual assaults.

Release all the damn files. This is the ultimate test of this nation’s useless partisanship.

So, does anyone know if Judge Ellis has brought in Bovino over ICE's tear gas party this past weekend?

@tkingfisher.com is Snake-Eater your first SF novel? Asking because there's a moon colony.

No, it's not at Quartz Creek, but I have to know.

Software archeology for real folks, not just in Fire Upon the Deep.
Absolutely WILD that the development of sofrware proceeded with so little heed to record-keeping that 52 year old source code is a major archaeological trove that requires special tools to gain access to, like it's a treasure room in a sealed royal tomb from 3500 years ago.

If you aren't seeing skeets from some of your fave people, they might have been labeled "Rude" by bsky mods. Idk what they are thinking, I don't need a mommy to tell me who to be buddies with. Anyway, go into Settings > moderation > bluesky moderation (advanced) and turn Rude off.

Every race. It’s basically been every race.

Governors. Mayors. Long-held GOP dog-catchers. School boards. Water boards. Flipped a dungeon master in a rural Iowa D&D club. State senators. State reps. A janitor in Duluth. State justices. Three GOP Uber drivers.

Just everything.

Because I'm in a foul mood and trying to change it, here are some books to give away.
Killers of a Certain Age by Deanna Raybourn.
If you have a dark sense of humor and like seeing women in the lead, this book is for you.
Available to folks in the US only. Sorry about that.

She will be missed.

that johnson is more terrified of seating a duly elected democrat who could force an epstein vote than having the entire government shut down really makes me wonder about that epstein vote tbh

@naomialderman.bsky.social could you please point me at the sources you used for Part 4, chapter 3 of The Future?
I'm having to deal with AI enthusiasm and would like something other than misguided boosterism. I may even make something of boxes and colored marbles...
Thank you.

So, not having a bad day, but figured why not brighten the world up a little bit and give out one of my favorites.

@aptshadow.bsky.social I know you have very little push on the publishers, but any chance the Bioforms/Dogs of War trilogy could get a set like Children did?

@naomialderman.bsky.social I was reminded of The Future today by our tech media totally failing to grasp your description of algorithmic/iterative learning.

Anyway, thank you for a book that taught me something. And that I enjoyed a lot.

Life is hard, I still can't fix this blasted report. But, here's 4 copies of Tripping Towards Mars, which I have, but _haven't_ read yet. The premise sounds great though.
