glowingfish asked:

The Golden Age of published science-fiction was more or less from 1955 to 1975 (lets say). Why did it end when it did? Do you think that science-fiction (or fantasy) published after 1975 was different, or do you just think it had less ability to become part of the "canon"?

This is really non-standard periodization! Wikipedia has the Golden Age of science fiction starting in the late 1930s, in connection with sci-fi magazine publishing history; the end of your period is solidly New Wave.

The counter-argument is the aphorism that the Golden Age of science fiction is twelve; by that rule, it's interesting to think about who was twelve in 1955-1975, or whatever guidelines you want to pick, and what influence they might have had on defining a canon, once they reached their twenties or thirties. The people who were twelve between 1955 and 1975 were mostly baby boomers, in the standard US generational framework; that was my parents' generation (and

glowingfish's parents', I'm guessing), and it makes sense that the stories they considered formative would seem quasi-canonized to our generation.

Vermis: Sounds of the World
https://radagasttenderofbeasts.bandcamp.com/album/sounds-of-the-world-vermis-vol-1-melodies-of-the-unknown

The top comment on this album says it best:

Every track fits that book like skin on bone. Same fever-dream vibe. You get that ache again—nostalgia for a game you never played.

Also: I got the cassette, but no cassette player. Therefore, the cassette tape lays untouched until a future adventurer pulls it from my clasped, mummified hand; it is an object of puissance.

i spent part of this weekend very cranky about not getting enough stuff done fast enough and then i realized i'm on track to finish four (4) giant projects in january alone (2 comics, tellius bg resource, gunter animatic) that have been on my plate since middle of last year.

... suddenly less cranky XD

anyway Very Cool Stuff is happening art-wise, i'm finally getting the clothes shipments/some sick doujin packages from last year and i feel like i can start for real celebrating the new year \o/

Road Trip to the End of the World (2025, PC) -- Joined by a talking fish in overalls, a young woman drives across the United States to crash the wedding of her ex-best friend.

This Ren'py visual novel, a thesis project from Alex M. Lee as part of her MFA at SVA, is short and polished and free to play. It took me about an hour to experience from start to finish, and that brevity is both a strength and a weakness. On one hand: a perfectly self-contained one-hour game, we love to see it! On the other hand, perhaps due to the thesis-project demands of MUST DEMONSTRATE ALL PORTFOLIO STRENGTHS HEREIN, the game appears anxious about cramming in a full character arc for its protagonist. This means that she is maybe overly self-actualized and speaks in the idiom of self-help therapy TikToks -- but just when I was starting to frown at all the epiphanies being awkwardly vocalized, there was a Guy Fieri jump-scare joke that had me howling with laughter. So, on the whole: a good game!

The Hiveworks Guild Statement on Hiveworks Comics
https://cartoonist.coop/hiveworks-guild-statement/

Hiveworks has failed to provide its advertised services, has bled talent and downsized dramatically, and has revealed a massive $340,000 worth of debt that the Guild became aware of in early 2025. We now feel it is imperative to put on record our history with Hiveworks – both to stand as proof of what we have tried to accomplish, and also serve as a warning to those who may consider associating professionally with the company founders.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Discord mod drama never ends well. I know the complaint of these artists goes far beyond "mod drama," but still. I feel like I've seen all of this before.

Fandom: 17776: What Football Will Look Like in the Future - Jon Bois
Characters: N/A, some OCs for worldbuilding purposes
Word count: ~1k
Warnings: None
Notes: Some utopian nerd fiction for Wasuremono for Yuletide. The AO3 version of this fic uses a custom work skin to mimic the styling of the original 17776, but for readability purposes here is a version that's just in a normal script format.

( Bauxite's pretty hot lately. )
