Church Lady voice: Could it be ... GENDERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR?!
Best mustard?
Bay Area friends! Food! Trauma! Healing! All that and more with me, @npub1fz2f...sqk4 and Lee Lai, tomorrow night, 6pm at Mrs Dalloways! Free! It's all part of Lit Quake, the Bay Area's greatest book festival.
I cannot stop thinking about this paper about how Iberian harvester ants can produce offspring of two entirely different species. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-025-02524-8 cc: @myrmepropagandist
I keep telling myself that one of these days I'm going to learn to stop giggling when I'm speaking on panels or giving talks. But um it's been like 30 years now and I'm still doing it so .... is it possible that I'm just a lifetime giggler?
I've been hearing from a lot of booksellers and readers that Automatic Noodle is sold out in stores. We have a 2nd printing in the works! In the meantime, please backorder the book from your local indie so the publisher knows you want it. That helps me and the bookstore! https://bookshop.org/p/books/automatic-noodle-annalee-newitz/625018d0518991aa
Listening to Glass Beams, drinking a cold brew from my favorite local cafe Martha & Bros, and FINALLY writing the last chapters of my novel. A good afternoon.

Do you love public transit and science fiction? Of course you do! Now you can have them at the same time! Next Tues 9/16 at 6pm, an astonishing panel of activists and creators are coming together to talk about the future of transit. Seriously do not miss this one-of-a-kind event. We are also going to try to livestream it, but that isn't certain yet. I will keep you posted! #sfba #scifi
