Perhaps today you too are feeling uncomfortable in your own myth. Pick up a thread and follow it alongside "Quantum Eurydice" by Avi Burton:
Quantum Eurydice - Small Wonders
Eurydice has never felt as if she fits in her own myth. It doesn’t belong to her, not really, because the story doesn’t end when she leaves it.

Some poems warn us what not to become.

Mark Wyatt's "Saudi Arabia" is one of our features this weekend. And it's sadly relevant this weekend in particular.

There has been a notable drop over the last year in bookstores responding to us on the topic of stocking print Radon copies. Namely in the US where it's risky for small stores to stock a sci-fi journal with explicit anarchist imagery on its cover.

But that won't stop us or slow us down.

The second story in Saros #4, edited by @hannahgreer.bsky.social: "Folded" by @helenfrench.bsky.social, which originally appeared in the anthology Strange Days from Midnight Street Press.

To read it, grab a copy of Saros #4 for free at sarossf.com/issue-4/
"Folded" by Helen French: second-hand guilt / ash scattering journey / mysterious mass destruction Ashes and memories and a heap of obligation were all I had left of my mother. I might’ve ignored her dying wishes, but Mother had put the requests in a will, which was a surprise given that she’d had Alzheimer’s for so many years. I supposed she’d made it official when her neurons were still firing properly, long ago.

I really tried to make a fresh start of it. I folded up my cheesecloth ectoplasm and left the sepia-tinted New England of my childhood, moving as far south as one could, to the saturated Keys, Ponce de León’s islands of Los Martires.

#Minneapolis This is all you need to know about Renee Goode’s murder (credit: Georgia Fort). She was murdered by 🧊 agents despite being no threat to them. She was a member of our community and of our greater queer family. She and her family deserve justice and to be remembered and supported.
Graphic memorializing Renee Goode.
