THIS IS SO FUNNY I'M SORRY
in Finland, it is illegal to kill a bear when it’s hibernating. If you ask a hunter why that is, a number of them will tell you it’s wrong simply because it is the law, and they don’t make a distinction between what is right, and what is legal. Most people like that are perfectly normal, decent and respectable people, just like the rest of us.
But if you ask people who think about things, the answer is vague. Killing a hibernating bear would just feel… impolite? You can’t fucking shoot a man when he’s sleeping, that’s just fucking rude. It’s just not the right thing to do.
Long before hunting laws were established in Finland, you couldn’t kill a sleeping bear, and what commands you is something older than law: tradition. Even at a time when hunting was a matter of life and death, and a bear fighting for its life is mainly a matter of death, you just didn’t kill a hibernating bear, you have to wake it up first. Hunters risked their lives, the lives of their brothers and everyone in the hunting party, who were friends, family and men that they loved, to give the bear a fighting chance.
In the modern time, the hunting season of bears is in the summer, for the warmest summer months. There are many reasons for why they are allowed to tread safely in autumn and to sleep in peace through the cold months, almost all of which are rational and scientific, and do not touch the old traditions.
Old faith says a living thing has many souls - henki, luonto, itse. Plants only have one - the one that wills them to grow. Animals have two, both the spark of life and nature that enables them to act. A human being also has the third, one that makes them a person, personality, itse, literally “self”. But the soul that travels in your dreams is not the soul that defines a human - animals have that one as well. When your dog runs in her sleep, her soul is elsewhere, where a dog is needed.
One’s waking soul is elsewhere when they sleep and dream. A bear’s soul is somewhere else when they are hibernating - there are two words for “hibernation” in finnish, one of which is talviuni, “winter sleep”, and that is the one that bears have - and if you kill a sleeping bear, their soul is not in the body, it is still out there, and it can find you, and as a revenge for killing its body, Ghost Bear will kill your entire fucking family.
Ghost Bear will kill your entire fucking family

When Eurydice Saw Him
by Gregory Orr
When Eurydice saw him huddled in a thick cloak, she should have known he was alive, the way he shivered beneath its useless folds.
But what she saw was the usual: a stranger confused in a new world. And when she touched him on the shoulder, it was nothing personal, a kindness he misunderstood. To guide someone through the halls of hell is not the same as love.
i love media that confidently spoils itself right from the start!!! i love when stories hold your hand, perhaps even look you in the eye, and gently say ‘this character is going to die. this relationship is doomed.’ but assure you that this is a tale worth hearing because it’s not about the what it’s about the how. yayyyy hehehe 💙
Ann Leckie why do you have to speak to me, specifically, like this.

Things are getting SLIMY in the annexed-by-the-Radch water treatment works fandom 😎
I have a suspicion that Ann Leckie is to worldbuilding what JRR Tolkein is to languages. I think she loves building a world so goddamned much that she simply has to tell the stories within it.
Listen, if our beloved Ann Leckie is gonna do ONE THING she's gonna construct a world that is so thought-out on a political and material level. Ann Leckie is running up to your constructed world, pounding on the fourth wall, yelling "WHAT DO THEY EAT? WHERE DOES IT COME FROM? DOES IT MAKE SENSE FOR THAT FOOD TO BE PRODUCED IN SUFFICIENT QUANTITIES TO SUPPORT THE POPULATION? WHAT ARE THE WORKERS CONDITIONS LIKE? HOW DO THEY PRAY? WHAT MATERIALS ARE INVOLVED IN THEIR PRAYER? WHERE DO THE PRAYER MATERIALS COME FROM? HOW DOES THAT DIFFER FROM OTHER SOCIOECONOMIC CLASSES IN THIS PLACE?" And then she fucken skateboards away to play seven-dimensional chess with gender.
And we all agree we love Ann Leckie for this.
has anyone figured out how to turn off the thing where you love your pet so much it slides inexorably into grief-borrowing
“For me this glass is already broken. I enjoy it; I drink out of it. It holds my water admirably, sometimes even reflecting the sun in beautiful patterns. If I should tap it, it has a lovely ring to it. But when I put this glass on the shelf and the wind knocks it over or my elbow brushes it off the table and it falls to the ground and shatters, I say, ‘Of course.’ When I understand that the glass is already broken, every moment with it is precious.”
You love to fucking see it.
This is the most true

Not really spoilers but kinda; so far the cast of Radiant Star includes:
- several dozen of the absolute shittiest guys ever
- 1 goodest boy in the universe and his best friend and only companion, who may or may not have been traumatised out of personhood (needs a haircut)
- the kindest retired mass murderer yet invented (collects shiny rocks)
- whatever the fuck’s going on with our as-yet-unnamed narrator
Radiant Star: not really a spoiler
