One of my favorite science fiction novels is free to download (in exchange for a mere email address) through this Friday: The Quantum Thief, by Hannu Rajaniemi. You should read it so I can talk about it with more people! https://t.co/IrgceQsJJx

@mwichary I'm so delighted that you came back to find this old tweet. The typing demo is beautiful, and supports almost enough brackets to be my new text editor!

@TheOctoNation Ha! At my 1st author event I fielded this very Q from @startled and turned it into a blog post, in which I also made controversial statements about the best and worst cephalopods: https://t.co/lrSqRBcEcM

Movie idea: realistic BatMan. Vindictive tech bro billionaire, too out of touch to realize that “dress up in costume and punch clowns” isn’t an effective crime fighting tactic. His staff, terrified of his unstable power and rage, manufacture cosplay villains for him.

@mlroach Oh wow I love it. It's like how Kafka wrote Amerika before ever having traveled there. Landlocked Los Angeles! Huntington Beach is enormous! Amazing.

@ladyfriend This Anna Wintour ambassadorship may be important information for @evilmallelis! I wonder who Joan Didion might ambass for in turn?

@wooglooskr I get a little sad whenever I see photos from when the US Navy prioritized impractical-but-awesome airships. Those were the days...

@ladyfriend Should they... should they be providing professional pedicurists I guess?

You made it through all twelve rounds of Boxing Day! Congratulations on achieving The Distance, and happy Boxingtide to you and yours.

The idea that it was "unthinkable" for the main opposition party to contest every Congressional race shows how far we have to go. https://t.co/bKLksI2fiJ

@robey The old trick was to add a contact named "y'all" (and anything else it won't autocorrect for you).

@grimalkina We were just in Maui and I almost froze to death! On top of Haleakalā, to be fair, but it wasn't exactly balmy at sea level.
