white_hartI haven't done one of these in far too long...
Game of Thrones is based in history - outdated history.
STET, by Sarah Gailey. I really liked the clever structure of this story.
The Court Magician, by Sarah Pinsker; about power and the cost of power.
A Witch's Guide to Escape: A Practical Compendium of Portal Fantasies, by Alix E. Harrow; about the power of books and how libraries can change lives.
The Secret Lives of the Nine Negro Teeth of George Washington, by Phenderson Djèlí Clark; a haunting mix of magic and the history of slavery.
Knitting hard facts into soft yarn - on the links between knitting and science.
The 19th century lesbian made for 21st century consumption - on Anne Lister and the queer women who came before her.
Lest We Forget, by Elizabeth Bear; on war crimes and restitution.
"You Have Only Your Trust in Me": Star Trek and the Power of Mutual Belief. There is a reason that Picard, Sisko and Janeway are among my top role models as a manager.
Two Sisters in Exile, by Aliette de Bodard; a gorgeous story set in her Xuya universe.
A little less invisible - a great post about being bi and grey-ace and married to a man but queerness still being central to your identity, which I (obviously) found 100% relatable.
The Tory leadership contest as a medieval chronicle.
The knitting and crochet website Ravelry has banned support of the Trump administration; this Guardian article has more details for non-Ravelry users who can't see the statement.
xkcd on free speech.
