Contract signed—my notoriety-hungry early-career geologist meets trippy, ancient, regular-hungry carnivore story will appear in @ratbaglit.bsky.social ‘s Issue 2 in October!
Kicking off our March issue is Andrew Kozma’s “The Sacrificials.” This piece explores the lengths the collective will go to in order to justify horrific events, and that is a theme that is…timely 😬
