After reaching out to some people, it appears to be a phishing scam from over the weekend and they've already shut down the account. DO NOT OPEN IT if the email is from the last 48 hours!
I got an Docusign email with attachment from the managing editor of Oni Press that got caught in my spam. The email address looks legitimate, so either I got someone else's email by mistake, someone is doing a good job impersonating an official Oni Press email, or his account got hacked.

Indianapolis residents have shut down a proposed Google data center.
The tech giant wanted to build a massive 500 acre facility, but people got organized and stopped them.
The $1 billion data center would've used one million gallons of water a day.

We’d be in a much stronger position right now if mainstream Democrats had taken a common sense stand for First Amendment principles instead of piling on undergraduate standing up for Palestine.

a lot to point out in this article--how surrogacy is a $5B industry, how only NY requires agencies to be licensed, how surrogacy is >3x riskier, how buyers do not have to disclose their medical history--but my main q is how someone like cindy bi was allowed to enter into this process at all.
Surrogate pregnancies are increasingly popular in tech circles, and the practice is expected to explode globally in the coming decade. It’s also shockingly unregulated. This is a story about what happens when it goes horribly wrong.
