Every country should structure its legal and regulatory systems as a series of traps that guarantee someone like Elon Musk would end up in prison before he ever got rich

READ. BLACK. WEIRD. FICTION.
Feeling very grumpy about the void here so l've channeled that into a list of weird or weird-ish or weird-adjacent or theoretically-weird collections by Black authors (some of which I’ve read and too many of which I have not)

Hey man sorry to hear about all your political turmoil. Would it help if I scrolled around on the computer all day and drove myself insane?

Analysis of Trump supporters tends to miss the basic story: one (1) Black person got to be president, and white Americans decided it was better to destroy the entire American system than risk it ever happening again

Destabilization of reality in the US is about to reach surreal heights. Protect your mind. Monitor stress levels. Do not doomscroll--it does not help. Be selective about when and how long you expose your brain to this. Do what you can when you can.

Hey with all of this “buy Canadian” as a response to the tariffs, can we also remember to READ CANADIAN.
Canadian publishers will struggle to distribute books to the US, and Canadian authors struggle to get published there. American authors have a much easier time to be published here. Soooo….

Movie music goes "this bit is sad. This bit is tense", while game music goes "this bit is a swamp. This bit is a volcano."
That's way better actually! Movie soundtracks should try being indifferent to their characters' inner worlds and their stupid little problems and tell you they are in a field

The best way to know if an author or artist you love is secretly a terrible person is... you can't. There are no magic tricks here. Awful people who successfully manage to be awful for years are good at hiding the fact they are awful. All the average person can do is deal on a case by case basis
