The Misheard World feels, at every moment, intensely carefully crafted, and it is a delight to be left unsettled by it, all the way to the last says @chloroformtea.bsky.social at the NOAF blog:

βWhat takes The Salt Oracle from well executed story with beautiful prose into the realms of the special is that Wilson also wants to ask us what healing looks like, what community looks like and how we build those things in the face of existential pressure and continuous challenge. β Nerds of a Feather

The Bride! is a movie about the power of movies, and about the trope of the instrumentalized woman, and about the injustice of being robbed of your voice and the exhilaration of seizing it back. @carturo222.bsky.social has our review at the NOAF blog:

Decided to write about one of my favourite novels - and a 90s SF classic - for @nerdsofafeather.bsky.social this month.
China Mountain Zhang is a prescient, brilliantly drawn collage of a China-dominated future from the perspective of people living that future at ground level.
Book Review: China Mountain Zhang
A stone cold classic of future lives which holds up more than 30 years after it was written.

See the NoaF crowd's rec list for visual media.
The games are mostly (but not entirely) me. & one of my unexpected faves of last year - on that list - is Eternal Strands, which deserves way more attention.
Currently on sale on Steam for under 20 bucks NZ (70% off) for another 11 hours. Worth it.
