AP is now reporting gas canisters and fireworks were stuffed in truck. I still feel like waiting for evidence instead of reacting is a good lesson to take from the explosion expert. We are going to have A LOT of events like this in 2025 with a fascist actively encouraging stochastic terrorism in charge. We need to find a way to understand in a way that won't drive us insane.

A few years ago, I devoured the Ascendant series by K Arsenault Rivera. Basically a soft magic universe based on Mongolian and Chinese mysticism set in a different world, but the parallels are pretty obvious. The main focus is the sapphic romance between the two leads, but It does a good job of mixing world building, epic battles and military maneuvers, demons and magic, and relationships. I highly recommend it.
