I’ve had a reasonably productive morning — came down to eat breakfast in the hotel restaurant, spent time thinking through a bunch of the backlogged work for the SLF and for Serendib House, trying to figure out what I can redistribute to other people, now that money has started coming in a bit at the […]

Grades are in, hooray, huzzah. With an hour to spare, even. Except I might have to change two of the grades next semester if the students ever get back to me about their missing final projects. But that is a problem for another semester. I don’t have any pictures of me grading, so here’s a

It’ll take a few weeks for Connor Nevitt to process and edit the interview, but we’ll have it up on the podcast soon.

Two hours podcast recording this morning with Benjamin Rosenbaum — part II of our generative AI discussion. So much to say, we could’ve easily kept going, but four hours total so far on AI (two episodes) is probably enough for the moment. Followed that up with a new episode of Vera and a nice long

It’s weird when I’m listening to podcasts about food and gardening while I do morning chores (this morning, was Gastropod on Arctic cuisine, which was fascinating) and then it autoplays the next one and it’s my own voice coming out of the phone. Freaks me out every time. 🙂 https://speculativeliterature.org/mrah/
Recording a podcast this past weekend — Benjamin Rosenbaum and I were GOING to talk about AI, I swear, but somehow early on we went into a tangent on building utopias and social class and a LONG thing about landlords and renters and morality thereof, and oh well. It was interesting to us, clearly, since

Recorded another episode of our podcast this morning with Benjamin Rosenbaum — mostly posting this so I can show off how much more vibrant my Zoom background looks, with Kavi’s painting hanging on the office wall. Today was sort of a grab bag episode — Ben and I haven’t talked in a while, so we

Quick question re: reviewers — Benjamin Rosenbaum and I were thinking of recording an episode or two in the second season of our podcast about reviewing. I was going to do dramatic readings of my one-star reviews. But we thought it would be great to also have as guests some professional reviewers. Recommendations? Do I
I woke up at 5:30 with a cold, or rather, I’ve had the beginnings of a cold for a few days, but today it was clearly a full-on cold, so I had a super-slow morning — I went back to sleep until 7:30, then lay in bed playing video games on my phone (Polytopia), then
