durandal.blog/blog/hammaja... 3,100 word book review that started as an attempt to articulate what didn't work for me about makana yamamoto's "hammajang luck" and spun out into something about twilight mirage, michael mann's film heat, and suspension of emotional disbelief
![There is a likeability crisis in much contemporary queer sff. Authors are unwilling to make their characters look bad, and it compromises the integrity of the story. I don’t think this is the result of individual authors’ incompetence. The state of the publishing industry and the social media ecosystem around genre fiction has refigured the reader as, primarily, a customer, and the customer is always right.
If Yamamoto had written a highly entertaining and optimistic crime novel with a cast of highly flawed marginalized people who the reader is expected to root for even as they hurt each other, themselves, and the people around them—if they took seriously the premise of they story they did in fact write—it may have been more difficult to market. It may have received more negative Goodreads reviews from the kind of people who don’t like Wuthering Heights because it’s just a bunch of terrible people treating each other terribly. But oh my god. Who cares. Those people can go read a book that isn’t about people who steal things for a living and send each other to jail.
Expecting authors to honour the gravity of their own concepts is not in conflict with appreciating fun, escapist genre fiction. Why are the “let people enjoy things [and don’t say anything negative about the things they enjoy]” crew the only ones who deserve to enjoy anything?](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:strlttkrhhtvmkbnj26nkhi3/bafkreigivbxigzdatiptqgbfbb7glpnt6vv7yomfajyzz4mkrhkzwyf6wm@jpeg)

this is the program that made me do a 180 on him (well, a 90, seeing him win worlds live did move that needle.) ilia is genuinely capable of really moving artistry in addition to his insane tech content. I hope he has support today

Existing disability services are deeply underfunded, aggressively audited, means-tested constantly, and can be labyrinthine to even access or maintain without assistance. As someone who spent two decades as a cog in that system, concerns about fraud are overblown compared to the real existing need.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

this was for a colorado measure guaranteeing universal free lunch for kids. funny how a short two-column table can say so much in so little space.
This is how it looked on the ballot.
