If I had a nickel for every 2025 book with a centipede on the cover I'm planning to read, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

I don’t know how you could live through the 2010s and think that vampires are *inherently* queer

At the end of the day the sour is the best drink to make because it makes your hands smell like citrus.

Bimonthly short story report! I had a great time with these anthologies as well as the online magazines Lightspeed, Beneath Ceaseless Skies and Three-Lobed Burning Eye. I especially had a great time reading some older stories, while continuing to celebrate some of my favorite contemporary writers!

If your workplace has so much to do that you need to use an LLM, they need to hire more. Simple as that. Quit cutting corners on hiring, use the brain that we climbed down from the trees to grow, Be Alive. It's really not that hard, man.

NEW VIDEO ALERT! Today on Bar Cart Bookshelf we're talking about METAL FROM HEAVEN by @sapphomancer.bsky.social: a powerful work of fantasy, committed to deep ethical principles, to queerness, to solidarity, to desire & the will to reshape the world. Our drink is Ichorite, sharp with a citrus bite.

Backlist Bar Cart Bookshelf! FLAMES OF MIRA by @clayharmon2.bsky.social. A grimdark adventure fantasy in a subterranean world of magma & metal, anchored by a compellingly conflicted antihero & strange chemical magic. Our drink is Fhelfire, a mocktail that marries fire & ice. youtu.be/friRNTWrV5s

Backlist Bar Cart Bookshelf! DEAD COUNTRY by Max Gladstone. The first volume in the Craft Wars series, this is a novel of homecoming, mentorship, & world-shattering catastrophe. A weird western of cursed accounting. Our drink, the Edgemont Cooler, is a refreshing highball! youtu.be/GzT1mYKDelY

Kinda insane and shows how afraid the networks are of upsetting this administration that a guy who killed 7 people and wounded 48 with “47” literally tattooed on his face has all but been forgotten like there’s still not a very serious threat emanating from every pore of this pathetic cult
