I’ve just seen Sinners and absolutely loved it! Also, I was surprised and delighted to see Choctaw vampire hunters appear in the beginning of the movie! After raving about the movie to friends. That detail got me going down so many Choctaw rabbit holes. 1/11

In Tuskahoma I visited the Choctaw Capitol Building and museum (and bookshop 😉). There’s a monument to Choctaw-Irish friendship that commemorates the money the Choctaws sent Ireland during the Great Famine. An extraordinary show of generosity right after suffering the Trail of Tears.

A dark book for dark times. You'll find my review of Lindy Ryan's anthology, The Darkest Night, at The Masters Review.

I had so much fun writing this review of the Olympics Closing Ceremony as an SF cautionary tale for @strangehorizons.bsky.social. I wish I could give Thomas Jolly a 🏅 for making me fall in love with Paris all over again.
