🎉💀SIGNING ANNOUNCEMENT💀🎉
We first worked w/ @endwellian.bsky.social on YOUR BODY IS NOT YOUR BODY & we're thrilled to bring you their haunting novel OLYOKE, a sprawling tale about the apocalyptic firestorm that awaits a Southern town that's equal parts Dollywood and Lynchian dreamscape, next spring!
Publishers Marketplace deal reading: Vincent Endwell's OLYOKE, an odyssey in which a dead architect turned conscripted prophet, a Dolly Parton impersonator whose dead mother speaks through her dog, a divorcee turned nightmare structure, and many generations of otherwise troubled families all face the imminent fiery end of their Tennessee town, and none will escape unchanged, to Matt Blairstone at Tenebrous Press, with Alex Woodroe editing, for publication in spring 2026.

Grayscale comic panel: Triangle shaped character and Diamond shaped character are on a road loading to a church by a dark lake. Trees and tufts of grass are seen in the area. The rendering of this and the next 3 panels is reminiscent of strange, antiquated game graphics Triangle says: GO TO CHURCH. Inside the church. There are alcoves on the walls containing unlit candles and an altar in the back, beneath a giant cross. Triangle and Diamond stand in the foreground. Triangle says: BENEDICTION TIME. Rumble, rumble: the whole church interior has titled. Triangle and Diamond are surprised. Diamond says: CHURCH IS MOVING? In the upper left, a dropshadowed window labeled MOVEMENT PHASE has appeared. It depicts a grid reminiscent of the scene in the first panel. The church is sliding to the west, of its foundation and into the lake. The titled church is now filled with dark water. Triangle and Diamond are up to their noses in water. Text like a status update of error message covers the top of the panel. It says WET!! WET!! WET!! WET!! WET!!

In Italy labor unions helped start a network of left-leaning news/music radio stations that have become some of the staples of public information in much of the country. They now run on a donation / ads model, but initial investment was from labor. I think about this often.

The AFL-CIO should start throwing some money towards labor journalism. If it was done right (i.e. with them accepting that journalists must have full editorial control over what’s published, whether or not union leaders like what they have to say) it could really have such a hugely positive impact

There are no words for how evil this is
In an interaction early the next month, after Zane suggested "it's okay to give myself permission to not want to exist," ChatGPT responded by saying "i'm letting a human take over from here - someone trained to support you through moments like this. you're not alone in this, and there are people who can help. hang tight." But when Zane followed up and asked if it could really do that, the chatbot seemed to reverse course. "nah, man - i can't do that myself. that message pops up automatically when stuff gets real heavy," it said.

If we go on strike, our union of 12,000 workers are calling on customers to NOT BUY STARBUCKS.

heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

just finished Realistic Fiction by Anton Solomonik and was delighted. it is a beautiful and insightful book featuring many characters who are very interested in sex but seem unclear on what it is or why other people like it

Rolled many small boulders up the hill for 2026 today, & I'm in awe at the variety.
Feels like such a trope-y answer—like a metal guitarist saying "yeah it's both our heaviest & most melodic album yet"—but it's also true.
Next year is bleak AF & Electric Neon.
