weird

Hello everyone! 👋👋👋

I've just joined the Fediverse, and I chose @zirk.us bc I'm most interested in #literature and the arts more broadly. I also created a #reading account via #Bookwyrm @d-integration, and a Fediverse-supported #blog (launching today) for my writings at @weaver.

I'm most interested in #SpeculativeFiction, especially #SciFi and the #Weird, #ArabLit, #SocialCritique, #CriticalTheory, #Philosophy, and all things #Surreal and/or #reality breaking.

#Introduction

My Zine "Perhaps You Might Try The Soup" is a #ScienceFiction adjacent zine with experimental text, comic pages and interesting images and jokes.

Best of all it's Free,

I would be thrilled if anyone gets the time to check it out. I think you will enjoy it.

Boosts also greatly appreciated.

This one’s just plain #weird

The day after #SeanDuffy was confirmed as #Trump’s transportation secretary, he signed a memo dictating how federal #transportation funds should be allocated.

The list of new criteria included one directive that stood out: All of the department’s grant & loan programs should prioritize projects in “communities with marriage & birthrates higher than the national average,” to the extent allowed by #law.
