@ThomasRBritt Always great to have you on board, Tommy! The owls are never what they seem!

Seat Struck has always been cool. Thank you for inviting me to discuss the enduring mysteries of Twin Peaks.

Lots of fun on the podcast this week covering TWIN PEAK (Seasons 1 & 2) with @johnnycakes91, @ThomasRBritt, Magill Foote, and PD Simon Spiegel! #theseatstruckmoviepodcast #mädchenamick #theowlsarenotwhattheyseem open.spotify.com/episode/2Z4Bt7…

@JoyceCarolOates I agree with you. Have you written any short stories that examine the mentality of such trophy hunters?

this is hardly "hunting." in North America there has long been a tradition of rural residents actually hunting for purposes of food--deer, ducks & geese primarily--& the effort of serious hunting in the wild in cold weather can be considerable. this sort of hunting is some wealthy probably obese white man from the US paying "natives" to place a helpless creature a few feet from him, serving his rifle for him, telling him when to pull the trigger & making a video of the sickening spectacle. his grandchildren will likely be disgusted with him.

@naghamabouzeid Congrats, Dr Nagham! You rock star! :D

@blacklionking73 @TPV_John @InvisibelleMS Come to Canada, brother! You are always welcome here!!

@TPV_John @InvisibelleMS I can't believe this level of stupidity exists

I do not identify as a “Christian” any longer… I am a follower of Jesus Christ.

I'm delighted to announce that my co-authored publication “Confronting Techno-Orientalism and Anti-Asian American Racism in Alexander Weinstein’s ’Saying Goodbye to Yang’” with @shbaglama has been accepted for publication with Texas Studies in Language and Literature. Onward! 🤖

Why would anyone be against this at all? Are you against this??

78 years ago, 800,000 Palestinians were expelled from their homes. Britain made it possible. Today, Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Britain made it possible. 78 years of the Nakba - and 78 years of British complicity in crimes against the Palestinian people.

I'm delighted to announce that I've signed a contract with Routledge for my second book (Habilitation) Negotiating Dis/Trust in AI Fiction! Coming soon! :) #routledge #AInarratives #habilitation #humancyborgrelations

A very happy 100th birthday to David Attenborough. The whole world owes an enormous debt to David Attenborough for passionately defending the natural world and how we relate to it. Let us heed his lesson of living with nature, not on top of nature.

My article has been published in @Sociology_Lens. It offers a biopolitical reading of Helen Benedict’s The Good Deed (2024), focusing on refugee camps, governance, and humanitarian power. Read it 👇🏼 #refugeeliterature onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/jo…

@juliet_turner6 Ohh which one is it? Dave Goulson's books are some of my favourites! x

Dear The Royal Entomological Society, I am afraid I can no longer read the wonderful new book on honeybees that I agreed to review because my cat has fallen asleep on it and he is very comfortable and so cannot possibly be moved. Best wishes, Juliet.

@Helen_Fields To Kill a Mockingbird, Salem's Lot, Animal Farm, A Clockwork Orange, Redwall, The Hobbit

Need your help, BookTwitter. I'm running a National Year of Reading event for to 14-18 yr olds. Name one book that at around that age lit up your imagination. Audiobooks, graphic novels, short stories - all welcome. Stories that will set them on fire and make them want to read. I'm looking for books to rave about for the simple joy of reading, so not really the classics that they might be asked to read as past of the syllabus. Go...

@cjtudor Great shirt too! Who did you kill? :D

Yay!! Proofs of SERENITY FALLS are finally here! I started writing this in July 2024, two weeks after I lost my mum. She was a wonderful lady, who really loved ice cream. This one's for you, Mum! 🤣 🍦
