If they do the five-actresses-honoring-five-nominees thing again this year, as they have kind of promised to do, folks, we are going to need a volunteer!
The five-camera shot just before and after they announce the best actress winner is going to be an all-timer.

As the president delivered remarks blaming the D.C. plane crash on his political opponents and diversity programs, across the Potomac in Arlington, young figure skaters were choking back tears as they laid flowered at a makeshift memorial to three of the dead.

Donold is blaming a plane crash that killed 67 people on “DEI” with zero evidence.

He is attempting to use racism to deflect from the fact it is HIS fault. He had just removed 100 FAA senior officials.

It’s been 11 days and there are 67 bodies in the Potomac in Washington DC because of him.

Years ago, I tried reading Use of Weapons by Iain M. Banks and dnf'd after 3 pages.
Last year, I gave it another chance and really enjoyed it.

What's a book you ended up enjoying after giving it a second chance?

A lot of people here who consider themselves progressive should take some time to decide whether they're going to spend the next four years picking niggling side fights and out-lefting the person one inch to their right, or making common cause against bigotry, cruelty, and authoritarianism.

So many wonderful reads to check out from this list! 🪐📚💙

I read The Lies of the Ajungo by Moses Ose Utomi last year and loved it! Looking forward to reading the sequels. Highly recommend checking out the Forever Desert novella series.
2024 was an incredible year for African SFF short fiction. Author @wtalabi.bsky.social (Convergence Problems, Shigidi and the Brass Head of Obalufon) highlights ten (plus a few more) outstanding examples:

Water Moon was such a pleasant surprise. It's dreamy and very fantastical. The whimsical nature of the world sucked me in. I enjoyed each layer of this journey, even the dark and danger.
