New Story Day: “I’ll Miss Myself” is out at @reactorsff.bsky.social!

"I'll Miss Myself" is about an app that shows you every parallel universe version of yourself--or so it says. But the app might be hiding something from all of you.

couple others by Danny from last year too. disturbing, to put it mildly, and a microcosm of familiar trends happening elsewhere:

I know Danny from the spec fic world, but I also follow his articles about the ways that far right orgs use money to slither their way into local institutions. Most of us know it's happening abstractly, but he really breaks it down through the lens of what's happening in Louisiana. Worth reading.

yeah, maybe i have to be a little more careful about the roasts i seek and where i go, i used to just be standard drip wherever i go guy, but i feel like the standard has drifted, no longer middle of the road roast, (or i have changed? gasp)

might be verging on old man yelling at cloud territory, but over the last 5-10 yrs popular coffee seems to be trending more light/sour/acidic when i go to new places. i just want earthy heavy stuff, even burnt dirt drip is preferable to sour for me, personally. maybe it's all in my head though.
