Ukraine blows up Russian data centres and immediately and mysteriously online talk about Germany’s Far Right AfD virtually disappears. Stop Putin you stop the Far Right.

Finally reading Piranesi. I loved her The Ladies Grace Adieu, and Jonathan Strange. In my opinion Clarke is one of the best modern fantasists writing today. #fantasy #SusannaClarke

Book cover Piranesi by Susanna Clarke. Satyr on doric column playing pan pipes.

"Hey! How 'bout we spend a ton of money to remake a classic that never needed to be remade and...stay with me...we make it completely different?" I hate his f'n world.

We're here, and in it for the long haul to see Ukraine finally free of Putin, Russia, AND Trump!

You can pre-order the audiobook for THE COMPANIONS WE LOSE by @micahcastle.com narrated by me!

Get it sooner and cheaper than Audible, and much sooner than wide!

Anyone ever notice that Rahm Emanuel and Nigel Farage kinda look alike?

@marcruvolo.bsky.socialOct 8, 2026, 10:37 PM

I don't understand it. Why do 1600 people follow me but only like forty ever interact? And I'll post about something important to me...*crickets*, but post "I took a poop," or something, and it gets two hundred likes. Plus, there are people "saving" dumb, non sequitur posts? Why? Is it all bots?

Also, I've been on this app since it was invite-only, but I'm spending less time here because the engagement is laughable. Even the cesspool of FB has more cool people willing to talk books and art now. Doesn't seem like the Bluesky algo, or its creators, are interested in growing this place...

Walking my dog today in sunny Portland. A DHS truck comes slowly rolling by with two masked, goons hanging off the back wearing full military kit, carrying AR-15s. They stare me down, watch me closely as they drive up the block. This is where we are now. The USA has a mad dictator and secret police.

Having trouble deciding which books to buy from Amazon during Prime Days? Try this: None, then go support an independent bookstore instead. 😌

Just like you shouldn't rely on LLMs for accurate information, never rely on polls to tell you what's going to happen in an election. I thought this was common knowledge. Political polls are complete BS.

@marcruvolo.bsky.socialOct 7, 2026, 2:09 AM

And all the polls are quite often wrong! Nobody should put any stock in any media org polls.

@marcruvolo.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 9:51 PM

They should give them one verbal warning, then fire warning shots, then... well.

On October 20, @frictionpress.bsky.social and Haruspex Audio bring you INSIDES OUTSIDES, four achillean erotic stories of bodies that bleed and swallow and writhe, that wear their pride and their shame like armor, like a costume, like a stethoscope pressed to a racing heart. Ebook, Audiobook, both.

Yeah, I reported and blocked them all. It's probably some bored teen, or incel.

@marcruvolo.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 8:54 PM

Reported them for impersonation.

@marcruvolo.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 8:50 PM

Highly doubt Gabe Newell, the multi-billionaire owner of Valve, a gaming company, is dropping random comments on Bluesky. Just some unfunny, trolling fool to be blocked.

@marcruvolo.bsky.socialOct 6, 2026, 5:51 AM

Jesus, fuck ROK so much. Quickly becoming complete enemies of Ukraine.

Damn, I love this so much. A peek into the creation of "Heroes," with producer/engineer Tony Visconti. True genius. #musicsky
