Queen Karen is a tyrant, but a very fair one -- that's why she holds democratic elections! In Neofeud 2, my #cyberpunk retro-90's style adventure game. Neofeud 1: https://store.steampowered.com/app/673850/Neofeud/

For black history month -- and all science fiction fans -- I aim you towards my review of Jesse Miller’s “Pigeon City” (1972), “Catalyst Run” (1974), “Phoenix House” (1975), and “Twilight Lives” (1979) https://sciencefictionruminations.com/2021/11/06/short-story-reviews-jesse-millers-pigeon-city-1972-catalyst-run-1974-phoenix-house-1975-and-twilight-lives-1979/
...and did not continue his SF writing career after the mid-70s. His singular late 70s story was written much earlier.

#scifi nerds, I need your help identifying an #SF novel I read decades ago.
The main characters each possess some sort of device which gives them essentially infinite power. They use it to create and destroy whatever they want, to travel all over the planet, basically anything.
They don't understand how the devices work. Turns out they're connected to giant machines—maybe originally for terraforming?—that are starting to break down, and the knowledge of how to fix them has long since been lost.
THIS SUNDAY at 9PM eastern (that's 1am Monday UTC) it's #MONSTERDON the weekly monster movie watch party! Come join a bunch of nerds as we watch a goofy monster movie!
This week we're watching DEVIL DOLL (1964), in which a greasy carny -- it's always greasy carnies, isn't it? -- worms his way into an heiresses' favors with his MIND-BENDING HYPNOTISM and creepy puppet show.
It's bad.
The flick's free with ads over on Tubi: https://tubitv.com/movies/100006021/devil-doll
Or you can download from Archive.org over here: https://archive.org/details/devildoll1964
See you this Sunday!

A change of pace, and greener pastures. Strange new indigenous worlds beyond poverty & endless war. In Neofeud 2, my retro-adventure game, coming soon! NF1:https://store.steampowered.com/app/673850/Neofeud/
