  Oh my god are we going to have to sit in public glass boxes or film ourselves writing to prove it was us. Solidarity with Thélyson Orélien. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/ck7v4y45893go

  Exciting news Fedi Fam! After twenty years of hard graft, China Mieville's new book The Rouse has finally been published. I had the pleasure of hearing China talk about the book in a London bookshop this week and my whole plan between now and Christmas (it is a huge book) is to soak up every mind bending sentence and paranormal concept. Not been this hyped about a book for a long time.

  Anyone fancy an OSINT quiz for the weekend? 'It’s made up of several questions to test your knowledge of reverse image search, historic archives of Google Street View, maritime records, and AI images...' 👏 https://gijn.org/stories/online-osint-visual-investigation-quiz/

  Best bits: - Circe! Woahh the pig molding!! - Sinon - Elliot Page smashed it as expected. Captivating even with a fraction of screen time - Terrifying cylops Worst bits: - Tom Holland made me want Telemachus to lose every fight - Just so Americanised: "mom" etc 🤮 (see above) - Mat Damon just did not convince - For a film based on an epic poem the dialogue was disappointing (see above) - Charybdis too small - Too much suitors, not enough Odyssey

  The cinema is wall to wall Odyssey on both screens. Starting to feel like an immersive experience - an interminable quest to escape an all encompassing foe.

  While on the subject of books....this is what I'm reading now. This book is also so good. A deep dive into the crooks, scammers and weirdos behind the crypto curtain. Zeke is also so scathing about everyone he reports on which is mostly hilarious but occasionally a bit mean. If you have any other great crypto industry book recs please let me know.

  The Bluesky algorithm drains my soul like no other site. I feel duty bound to post the new book on there but it is so depressing to experience total tumbleweed! I think I will delete my account there in 2027. It is too demotivating. My newsletter, Mastodon, LinkedIn and Instagram have been great during this first round of book promo. Facebook has been good enough.
