  6. Apparently this film didn’t even get a theatrical release in North America, but from the producer of Star Wars, the director of Tron, and starring Mark Hamill, you can imagine how excited we were to see it in 1989.

  9. If you aren't already a connoisseur of pre-Amazon era #SFF , reading and reviewing my 2021 fantasy novel *The Be(k)nighted, The Untold Origin of The Precept* is going to be tough—a bit like giving a horse review after riding a Unicorn.

  10. The Netflix Germany TV show 1899 will be right up the alley of Tim Powers fans, a truly sweeping scope that ties the far past and the far future together into one persistent, complex New Weird mythos, one where you're legitimately never sure what's going to happen next. Strongly recommended to speculative fans!

  11. ICYMI, a wonderful review of The Origins of Desire in Orchid Fens by Lynn Hutchinson Lee dropped over at Strange Horizons. Review by Kyle R. Garton.

    From SH: "This is folk fairytale refracted through contemporary litfic, unified by setting and 'a pervasive sense that reality itself is fuzzy.'"

  12. #WritingWonders 7.16 — How comfortable are you with writing kissing and/or intimacy scenes?

    Perfectly comfortable. I’ve written all sorts of explicit erotica before. That being said, even though my current manuscript features a fertility god with an enormous schlong, even though there are mentions of angels fornicating with cattle (inspired by the Apocrypha), there are no actual sex/intimacy scenes. #AmWriting #Mythology #SumerianMythology #BooksOfEnoch #Apocrypha #slipstream

  13. I just finished another chapter of my book. This is the second fight scene in my manuscript. It features angels at war, and it’s a real doozy of an acid trip. #AmWriting #Slipstream #Angels #FightScenes

  14. In the new short story anthology "Signos: A Fiction Anthology Of Filipino Supernatural," we get horror stories — as well as fantasy, dark fantasy, and slipstream — from the Filipino perspective. To learn more, check out this exclusive interview with two of the editors, Tilde Acuña and Kristine Ong Muslim.

  15. Me and some friends once had to cycle 40 km to catch the ferry home. It was the last ferry of the day. We made it with a few minutes to spare. We would not have made it unless we drafted. #cykla #cycling #physics #slipstream

  16. Zweiter Spielfilm von Rose Glass, »Love Lies Bleeding« (2024): Eine der besten Kristen Steward-Rollen, Ed Harris gut wie immer, und Katy O’Brian glänzt endlich in Hauptrolle als Naturgewalt. Wunderbare subjektive Psycho-Fantasy (#Slipstream). Ruhig erzählt; brachte mich ein paar mal nur mit geschickten Schnitten/Kontrasten zum Lachen; dolle Spät-80er-Needle-Drops und feiner Synthi-Soundtrack. >>

  17. Here deep in the bowels
    of clouded ignorance
    where we have been consigned
    light is the primary anti hate agent

    We need to guide
    our battered craft
    into the #slipstream
    knowledge provides
    and take a ride
    with this acceleration..

    Organize and weaponize
    the power of particle friction
    to slice through
    the toxic atmosphere
    of thought stagnation

    It's the super charged residue
    of positive resistance
    to this current negative existence
    that will provide moral sustenance
    along the journey
    to lasting progress

    Only when armed
    with painful kinetic agitation
    and the application
    of laser beam persistence
    can we wear down
    opposition impediments
    until the tipping point is reached
    where the concept of true social justice
    finally perfects
    our ongoing social experiment
    called Democracy

  18. Hey all, my friends Sam Asher and Chelsea Sutton (both incredible writers, you should read them) publish a little flash fiction magazine called The Cosmic Background, and it’s great, and they’re doing a Kickstarter for it and it’s extremely close to getting funded! Can you help them get over the line? #sff #scifi #flashfiction #slipstream #writerscommunity

  19. Avi Silver is the editor who pounced on my story “Wolf Mother,” forthcoming in the next issue of @augurmag. They are crowdfunding to make an audiobook of their novella Pluralities, a tale of trans euphoria. We need more positive trans stories.

  20. June 1, 2023 - Day 152 - NewPlay Review
    Total NewPlays: 168

    Game: Slipstream

    Platform: Steam
    Release Date: May 22, 2018
    Library Date: Mar 4, 2019
    Unplayed: 1550d (4y2m28d)

    Slipstream is a retro-styled arcade racer. It's not 8-bit retro, so much as a throwback to the arcade racers I sucked at in the early-mid 1990's.

    One of the things I find myself struggling with is that the more games I play, the more reference points I have, and the harder it becomes to enjoy some games.

    If I open an MMORPG, I played WoW for over a decade, but that burned me out on MMORPGs. So an MMORPG has a lot to overcome.

    If I open a survival game, it needs to grab me as well as Subnautica... used to. Until I played Breathedge. Friendship ended with Subnautica, Breathedge is my survival friend now.

    For arcade racing games, it's Forza Horizon 4*. Slipstream is a very well designed arcade racer, and leans heavily on nostalgia for that era of games. It's just that I don't have any nostalgia for that style of game.

    So while it's well done, it doesn't offer me something that I don't get from another game, in a more enjoyable way.

    Sorry, Slipsteam. You're just a bit:

    2: Meh

    *Almost 18 months ago, I found a literal showstopper bug that causes FH4 to crash, regularly. It took months for the Forza team to accept that it was a bug.

    It's STILL not fixed. Much disappoint.

  21. #sffh #sff peeps. I've been chatting with someone, talking about how much we missed the #sffmagazines Electric Velocipede and Farrago's Wainscot. Both were #zines that were pretty #slipstream and open to all sorts of experiments w/ form. Are there any current #fixtionmagazines that have the same focus? We couldn't come up with any #speculativefiction #writingcommunity

  22. Currently reading #LiberationDay by #GeorgeSaunders.

    #Saunders is my favorite living writer, the winner of not only the 2017 #ManBookerPrize, but also a #MacArthur #GeniusGrant. If you haven't read anything by him yet, I recommend starting with the hilarious but acerbic short story #SeaOak, or the much gentler #Fox8.

  24. I just got my first review on Amazon for my first solo fiction book!

    "Surreal Sci-Fi For Serious Thinkers

    This novel from Cliff Jones, Jr. is my kind of science fiction novel: It's unpredictable, profound, philosophical and filled with insightful social commentary and brilliant satire on ever page.

    Honestly, there are enough great ideas in this book to fill 3 other sci-fi novels, but somehow Jones manages to cram one ingenious concept after the other into every single chapter.

    Once I started, I couldn't stop thinking about it until I reached the ending.

    Looking forward to more great writing from this author. He's definitely a talent to watch!"

  25. I finished another chapter of my novel today. I wasn’t sure I liked it until I read it out loud. Yes, I do like it. I’m at the point in my book where the plot is speeding along like that big rock chasing Indiana Jones. The Great Flood is imminent. #Writing #WritingCommunity #CliFi #GreatFlood #Slipstream #Mythology #SFFWriters

  26. #writingwonders D4: MC POV, What do you envy about your best friend?

    If anything, it’s his ignorance as to what’s to come. Ignorance is bliss. Enki can’t live his carefree life knowing that the Great Flood is coming. #WritingCommunity #Slipstream #Mythology #SumerianMythology #Enki #SFF #GreatFlood

  27. #WritingWonders Day 15: Describe your MC’s current mood like the weather forecast.

    A low pressure system is called a depression. Depressions bring unsettled weather and rain. Fitting, because the great flood is imminent. #GreatFlood #AmWriting #slipstream #mythology #CliFi

  28. #WritingWonders 2/7: Does weather or climate play a particular role in your book?

    It sure does. I’m writing Cli-Fi about the Great Flood. It is syncretic and pulls in elements from a variety of mythologies, folklores, fairytales, Bible stories, science, and pop culture. #CliFi #slipstream #GreatFlood #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #mythology

  29. I worked on my novel daily for a very long time, and faltered upon returning from vacation in April. Today I got so more more work done on it. I think I needed that break to think about where I’m going next with the finale. Now I have a better idea how to get there while tying in key elements from the Books of Enoch. #AmWriting #Slipstream #Apocrypha #BooksOfEnoch #Enki #Mythology

  30. The mighty #MarkRefoy of #Slipstream has announced they've done a full cover of #JoyDivision's #UnknownPleasures album and further cuts, with this Soundcloud take on "I Remember Nothing" kicking it off, presumably more to follow there. (His story about seeing them in 1979 on FB was a treat.) #music soundcloud.com/slipstreamuk/i-

  31. #WritingWonders 10. How are mental health issues handled in your world?

    This is a story about the beginning of things. This is also a story of apocalypse. Characters are only now discovering different states of mental being for the first time in history. #AmWriting #WritingCommunity #slipstream #CreationStory #MentalHealth #ClimateCatastrophy

  32. #Writingwonders D8: Sounds heard on a typical day

    Gurgling water. The conversation of fish. Paeans sung by the priests. The sounds of sex. Oh, the joys of being the god of water and semen. #Enki #mythology #SumerianMythology #SFFWriters #Slipstream
