Links and Notes for the Week of October 21, 2018 2018-10-28 John Winkelman Metafilter has a new post and thread on the ongoing hellscape of the administration of emasculated man-baby Donald Trump, and his bootlicks and water-carriers. Over at Book Riot, 10 Short Story Collections About Race and Culture. And from Friday Black, the first collection in the above list, “Zimmer Land“, by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah. I would have loved (LOVED) to attend this conference: Sublime Cognition: Science Fiction and Metaphysics (schedule with descriptions) A Russian publisher Yelena Shubina on why it’s difficult to find great contemporary fiction by current Russian authors.
