"AI will survive, but the speculative bubble surrounding it is a sign of a deeper structural problem — the cost of which, when finally realized, will fall most heavily on the working class." interesting analysis theconversation.com/the-ai-bubbl...
The AI bubble isn’t new — Karl Marx explained the mechanisms behind it nearly 150 years ago
OpenAI CEO Sam Altman’s warning of an AI bubble highlights a deeper economic problem: capitalism is producing more capital than it can profitably invest.

there’s a scene in the new documentary where Elizabeth Taylor is talking about the stigma of AIDS and how she got involved in the movement and it’s fucking everything
Elizabeth Taylor in an 80s press conference speaking on the stigma of AIDS “…And it so angered me that I finally thought to myself, Bitch, do something yourself.” from the documentary “Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes.”

Here is my 2025 award eligibility list, but it's not going to be entirely complete (for now), because I have a story coming out on... Dec 31.

* Book!
* The giant spider wants to help with your intersex healthcare, what could possibly go wrong
* Distributed haunting (you can also get some)

• Everyone is queer
• Family curse
• Wildflowers bloom all over Death Valley at once
• but only after it uses a woman as a battery to do so

The cover of my novella, Death Valley Blooms, which features a floating rectangular cube with several layers of dirt and roots and bones protruding from the sides and bottom. A profusion of wildflowers burst from the top. Below the cover are several bullet points, which read: • Everyone is queer • Family curse • Wildflowers bloom all over Death Valley at once • but only after it uses a woman as a battery to do so

It’s awards eligibility season in publishing, and I’d be honoured if you would consider All the Stars in the Daylight Sky in your reading for YA novels (Andre Norton Nebula, Lodestar, Locus).

I’m immensely proud of this book: a love letter to my Gaelic culture and our intergenerational bridges.
Maya MacGregor Awards Eligibility 2025 All the Stars in the Daylight Sky Novel (YA) Astra Young Readers October 2025 “MacGregor represents Gaelic lore well while thoughtfully integrating the nuance of neurodivergence and grief throughout. A welcome, cosy queer romantasy with a uniquely informed twist on the popular fae subgenre.” Booklist, Starred review “The characters and sparkling queer romance at the heart of the story are enchanting. A magical and romantic fantasy steeped in Gaelic culture.” Kirkus Reviews “This atmospheric, otherworldly fantasy by MacGregor (The Evolving Truth of Ever-Stronger Will) deploys Scottish mythology to touch on themes of grief and trauma brought about by past experiences with mass shootings and Covid-19…[An] empathic and accessible tale of belonging.” Publishers Weekly

I have come to the idea that we have to collectively, brutally, ritualistically kill Target just to show capital that we truly aren’t fucking around.

A year after Barnes & Noble opens in Wicker Park, nearby indie bookstore forced to close
Volumes Bookcafe, which has been open for a decade, immediately saw a “significant” drop in sales after Barnes & Noble moved into the century-old Noel State Bank building in October 2024.

Foundling Fathers, by Meg Elison

Hamilton meets The Boys from Brazil
1776 meets Clone High
All the Presidents' Heads meets Jurassic Park

6.23.2026

It's the satire America deserves for her 250th. tachyonpublications.com/product/foun...
Cover of "Foundling Fathers" by Meg Elison: a blue book featuring a polaroid-style picture of a white man in a powdered wig wearing white sunglasses and AirPods. Background: the Jefferson Memorial, desaturated, with figures on the stairs.

Today is the 70th anniversary of Rosa Parks' arrest. Six myths: 1) She wasn't old or tired. 42 years old that day, she had a "life history of being rebellious" & had spent two decades helping to turn the Montgomery NAACP into a more activist branch alongside ED Nixon and Johnnie Carr.

I named my fists Lucha and Libre.

Lucha might be associated with wrestling, but it means the ferocious fight we all Latines have inside.

Libre means free. Freedom to be whoever I want to be.

When your hands evoke the freedom to be, fueled by the flame to fight, ready to burn, incandescently alive
