it's Ambrose Bierce's birthday, so why not go read the only story of his to show up in WEIRD TALES magazine, "The Damned Thing," from Sept 1923, v.2, n.2? archive.org/details/Weir...

$524 repair bill, that's 21 copies of TOADSTONES, let's get buying folks

HUGE: Senate Parliamentarian says that Mike Lee's public land sell-off violates the Byrd rule, requires 60 votes in the Senate. A bunch of other terrible anti-environment provisions do too. This isn't over, but this is a huge win. www.budget.senate.gov/ranking-memb...

I tend to write as if you have read very closely and can remember very clearly everything else I have ever written, which I understand is not the case

These are short stories I conceived as a cycle under the informal title Assholes in Space Rogues thedreadfulpoint.com/stories/rogues/ The Histories thedreadfulpoint.com/stories/the-histories/ Beasts thedreadfulpoint.com/stories/beasts/ The Companion thedreadfulpoint.com/stories/the-companion/

"Hitler did snub a black American athlete, but it was Cornelius Johnson, not Jesse Owens. It happened the first day of the meet. Just before Johnson was to be decorated, Hitler left the stadium. A Nazi spokesman explained Hitler's exit had been pre-scheduled, but no one believes that."

Why did Hitler storm out of the Olympics when Jesse Owens won gold? Same reason Trump is targeting Black arts and culture today. Saida Grundy with a mind-blowing analysis in the @theguardian.com: www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

This comes just as Detective Novel is getting ready to go out. Use the code SELLOUT and get the book one reviewer called a 10 out of 5. That's not even how math works, we're over here defying universal fundamentals with the quality of our books.

*smiling placidly* death to america, of course

This is the weakest imaginable shit. Roll20 and DriveThru should be ashamed of themselves. And so should the greater RPG hobby if this is left to stand. www.rascal.news/drivethrurpg... @roll20.net @drivethrurpg.com

Trump's State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce says America is "the greatest country on earth next to Israel"

last full week of hellarkey submissions, get your weird, horrifying, terrifying, creepy-as-hell spook-em-ups in order and send 'em our way!!!

“This is just the beginning of the end—the beginning of the end of the US complicity and the genocide in Gaza, the US unconditional support to the genocidal state of Israel." Mahmoud Khalil, finally free, speaks out.

All over the world, people just want to live their lives.

as we ramp up once again to an illegal war, i want to say: fuck the troops

In an article on Mahmoud Khalil's release, the NYTimes notes he was detained on the grounds of "a rarely cited law from the mid-20th century." They don't tell you that this law was originally used primarily to deport Eastern European Jews, including Holocaust survivors, as suspected Communists.

ah, good, car trouble again, i was worried i might not lose huge amounts of money so this is great

Horror folks, a preorder of The Barre Incidents gets you: signed copy; bookmark; copy of Hellarkey 4—and we still have a chance, if enough preorders come in, to do a Bookmobile print run

Hi. Mary Verhoeven aka @sobcomix.bsky.social is cool as heck to work with, and on that subject, you will get a neat bookmark with her art if you preorder The Barre Incidents. This is how the art turned out (aka amazingly). Meet Kara Lenker (MC) and Alec Hutchison (love interest). 💜💜💜

A fun thing to do, if you like books and book mail and supporting independent literature, is to join our book club malarkeybooks.com/store/2025

Yet Luigi launched a thousand hand-wringing op-eds from the chattering class. Makes you think
