Evil. Really, quite evil. Incessant reader. A steady supply of novels keeps me from running amok, so: yea, libraries. Dislikes quite a large swath of humanity.

No joke: I got angry hate mail today for writing an obituary of a Black woman scientist—because the person felt she did didn’t deserve the recognition.
Which just makes me want to share it again: www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Writing this story made me happy in a dark time.
I talked to half a dozen people who started queer bookstores in their communities, and what I heard gave me hope.
These aren't just bookstores — they're a lifeline for people who have no place else to go.

Queer bookstores died in 2010. We had a funeral and everything!
Except... a ton of people decided to roll up their sleeves and start *new* queer bookshops, all over the place. In cities. In tiny towns.
My latest newsletter is about the rebirth of the LGBTQ bookshop:

Never fear, you are not alone. There is an army of UK post-box (pillar box in UK) lovers. Here a 19th-century one: bsky.app/profile/toms...
#PostboxSatruday: a lovely Victorian Penfold hexagonal pillar box (1866-79) opposite 29 Great Pulteney Street, Bath, the home of Joseph Townsend where geologist William Smith dictated his Table of Strata in June 1799. No doubt Townsend would have posted his letters here, if he hadn't died in 1816.

Also, join the League of Women Voters, which is working hard on these issues.
Every polling place needs volunteers to be poll workers (usually a nonpartisan position) and poll watchers/challengers, which is usually through a political party. Look up the rules in your area and sign up! It’s important and rewarding.
A good thing you can do about this instead of dooming is Google “how to become a poll observer in [your town]”

DO YOU LIKE ANTITHEISM? Start with Small Gods, a standalone skewering of organized religion.
From there, follow this guide to find your next book.

As today marks the opening of the 2026 Winter Olympics, we are sharing this late 18th century coin featuring an ice skater on the reverse.
It is a private 1/2 penny token struck by Gamaliel Skidmore (c.1775–1822).

A reminder, if needed, that Anne Bronte's novels are really good and with a refreshingly dim view of abusive men. Agnes Grey and The Tenant of Wildfell Hall both piss all over Wuthering Heights and Jane Eyre, if you ask me (an intellectual).
