Parmesan has been the best cheese for centuries. There are no contenders.

I am SO excited to release this album. I'm pretty compartmentalized into writing here, so I can ignore any kind dumb promotional schedule, right?

i've been collecting rare raccoon videos lately

For when you really need your hat to make a statement

turns out I'm the only person who kinda liked the David Lynch Dune

If you order this now, it will arrive before Christmas! Please help spread the good word if you know someone who likes cocktails and reading. Or even just someone who likes the CONCEPT of reading (it is pretty).

Y'all this will seriously be the best gift you give all year. It's beautiful, not spendy, and the only one of it's kind. Elegant short story collection and accompanying cocktails with hand-inked illustrations- Lasenne's Bar Book: Cocktails & Short Stories a.co/d/cJrgwyI 💙📚 🪐📚 #booksky

While I don't really use machine learning for anything but regex, I think it would be better to direct vitriol at dumb tech bros, executives, and hucksters rather than at AI itself. It's a useful tool.

About to ruin a perfectly good Gâteau Breton with some leftover pomegranate glaze

honestly no idea how threaded replies work

Three more days to submit to Baffling 🪶

The last word at home. It gets a little diluted at the end, but honestly, I kinda like it (Especially with cloosterbitter instead of chartreuse)

Every literary submission call is like "send us your best, most urgent work. We love poems that challenge, that startle, and even those that disturb. We want work that stirs our deepest, darkest feelings. No sex or violence though - those make us feel icky."

Also when did tor become reactor?

if history is repeating itself, I hope we get something closer to the end of the Gilded Age than the end of the Weimar Republic

Re-readers of books, please chime in: how often do you re-read books? What books do you re-read? Is it cover to cover? Excerpts for reference? -guy who is confused by re-reading

Oh almost forgot, also into Xmas cookies

AI is fucked for artists, but so long as humans crave aggressively defined tropes in their art (genre scaffolding) it will just keep getting closer to the tropes. I hope the result is that weird art gets amped. Write crooked songs, forget pacing. Dragons have tentacles and are masters of machinery.

what did humans ever do to deserve castelvetrano olives

Social media is simultaneously a reminder that like-minded humans exist, and also how many more not-at-all-like-minded humans exist: a glimmer of hope and a crushing anvil of realization.

Also here is my cat snoozing on China Miéville 🪐💙📚

I am once again asking you to consider the only sci-fi/fantasy short story collection and cocktail recipe book in the world. There's really nothing like it - beautiful illustrations, elegant typography, and each story/cocktail pair plays out perfectly in front of a cozy fire. a.co/d/9RBx7y1 🪐💙📚
