I’ve grown to love various paths and trees in my neighborhood, as I’ve gone on many convalescent walks in the past year.
Here’s the same path on July 4 (2025), Nov 22 (2025) and Feb 1 (2026).

Any one of these daily atrocities should result in a full congressional investigation and a disbanding of the agency. The fact that it’s all just shrugged off by those with the power to stop it is a national disgrace.
ICE ended up returning the man, Saly, after realizing he’s a fucking US citizen with no criminal record, per his sister-in-law. These fucking animals.

The Marriage Portrait by Maggie O’Farrell.
The reader swiftly identifies with Lucrezia, partly, because both are trying to understand what is occurring around them.
And knowing what happened to the historical Lucrezia, both officially & rumored, generates real suspense.
Wow! What a book!

I highly recommend More Everything Forever by @adambecker.bsky.social.
It’s about AI and the promise/threat/blunder/bluff/ waste of AGI efforts.
And about how the misreading of #ScienceFiction has influenced the technocrat industry.

@npr.org , in your annual Books We Love, you include "What We Can Know" (Ian McEwan) and "Vera, or Faith" (Gary Schteyngart).
Great choices!
Buy why don't you include these in your SF/Fantasy filter? They are obviously #ScienceFiction.

You’ve done a 10 best of almost every other facet of publishing.
You did SF in 2024.
Why not 2025?
