There is a scene quite early in The Traitor Baru Cormorant by Seth Dickinson that I vividly remember reading. It was 2015 and I was finishing my graduate degree at North Carolina State University. In the scene, the titular Baru has just been accepted to the new colonial school on her island: They know so […]
I think the moment I realised something was amiss was when a fellow named “El Spiko” filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC)1. This is not a sentence one would expect a video game critic to say, of course, unless one is familiar with the overwhelming tantrums that rock the gaming world like […]
One of life’s great joys is watching your children play. Through a kitchen window overlooking your backyard, at the beach, exploring a park. There’s great pleasure in observing the unobserved. You see their joy, watch them solve problems, navigate complex social situations, work together, fight, hug, laugh, run. Be free. You become lost in their […]

It is heteroblastic, which means that the juvenile form of the tree is very different to the adult form—so different, in fact, that the two forms were historically believed to be different species. It’s easy to see why. In the botanic gardens, the leaves […]
I don’t have to tell you that this is strange. Living in the time of COVID-19, the many small and large changes leave us feeling shifted askew. Sometimes weeks feel like months, and sometimes months feel like days. People wear life-saving masks around their necks. Since Mary Shelley’s The Last Man, science fiction has tried […]
We live in interesting times. Some of us have always lived in interesting times. What’s different now is we can all agree that these times? They sure are interesting. There’s trauma and pain everywhere you look. Even a casual greeting at the grocery store includes an implicit shared understanding that this shit sucks. Yet, we […]
Paul: “What’s in the box?” Rev. Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam: “Pain.” The summer after my tatay died, I went into his study and pulled every single science fiction novel from the shelves to send to Reading, Pennsylvania, where I was moving to start high school and live with my mother’s oldest brother and his […]
