Being a member of the British Science Fiction Association, I get access to the deep analytical thoughts of academics on the subject. And now this absolute gem has appeared, exploring the diversity of on-line presences available to those wishing to move away from the algorithmic doom-scrolling, and the philosophical drives for these alt-systems. I love this!

It has been 4 years since my original #introduction. I've had a few new followers since then. Hello! I'm a writer of #SpecFic and lead the #BSFA #OrbitShorts crit track. I'm a professional #environmentalist but mostly post about #cycling and #motornormativity. Also #MonsterOfTheWeek, #archery, and #OutdoorAdventure. I'm #neurospicy at ~2million scovilles, #synaesthetic, and enjoy chasing #Garmin badges. Opinions are entirely my own. (We will be getting another derp wolf, I'm working on it!)

Octothorpe 106 is now available! You can listen to it while at Eastercon, while travelling to Eastercon, or in defiance of the occurrence of Eastercon. We discuss, er, Eastercon. We talk about transcripts a little, too, before discussing awards, science fiction, cricket, and games. It’s basically a pretty representative episode, is what we’re saying.
