Plus ça change at the Hugos this year about what gets mispronounced—the Lipan title of Darcie Little Badger's award-winning book SHEINE LENDE; the Cambodian first name of the author of THE MINISTRY OF TIME, Kaliane Bradley—or casually skipped, like the khōréō masthead with all those foreign names.

This game can use your support, if you're a publisher, too! I get that this game might be too risky a subject to publish, but I believe many of you do understand & appreciate the value of a Palestinian-made game. There's an anonymous donation option, if needed for your job.

I’m just going to say that AOC is the acting leader of the Democratic Party until someone proves otherwise. At least insofar as she is responding to the moment with leadership.

One thing before tomorrow:

Use your local libraries.

Get your card.

Borrow books, manga, films, audios, ebooks.

Recommend titles for purchase (usually online).

Attend promoted activities.

Fill out those "How are we doing?" questionnaires.

Tell your kids that libraries are good.

They are.
