Given everything that's happening, it feels weird to do this, but let me try to celebrate "Blanquitos" being in great company on the @bsfa.bsky.social longlist, and many thanks to @wolfbridge.bsky.social for publishing it in @typebarmagazine.bsky.social

My newest TropiWeird short, "Blanquitos" was recently published in Typebar Magazine!
I'd be honored if you read this story about old friends, abandoned neighborhoods, and how nostalgia can be a boomerang

"Blanquitos" by Karlo Yeager Rodriguez @kjy1066.bsky.social, in Typebar Magazine @typebarmagazine.bsky.social
Another short story writer who rarely fails to knock it out of the park, Karlo delivered a fantastic piece this year....

"Cave art" of a hyena and her cub
It bums me out that there isn't more Paleolithic rock art of cave hyenas, especially considering they were all over the place. So I made some myself.
The United States of Banana ft. Karlo Yeaher Rodriguez, January 26, 2026
9/11, Hamlet, the Statue of Liberty, Segismundo, Zoroastrianism, Puerto Rican Independence, Bananas. What do these have in common? This book.
Today we are joined by @kjy1066.bsky.social of @podside-picnic.bsky.social to discuss βThe United States of Banana.β By Giannina Braschi.
Listen now!
The cover of Epic Comics' "Elektra: Assassin" by Frank Miller and Bill Sienkiewicz, depicting Elektra Natchios in her signature red leotard and head scarf, posing on a pedestal like a Greek statue
Revisited this one for an upcoming @podside-picnic.bsky.social episode.
From a post-9/11 POV, it's easy to dismiss just how good Frank Miller was at his peak. Combine this with the protean style of Bill Sienkiewicz and Elektra: Assassin reads like Fear and Loathing in the MCU

Thanks again, everyone! Despite how terrible things have been this year, I'm very grateful for the small things going right
May you all enjoy my birthday as much as I will!
I'll also point out that if you liked "Blanquitos" I have a small collection over on Itch dot io of other TropiWeird stories
It's currently available for free/pay what you want and in epub and PDF formats

Lastly, if you liked "Blanquitos" I want to alter the rules above slightly:
Alternate second point: since I'm not fishing for compliments here, simply share the story with friends you think would like it as well
That's it!
. . . And as expected, here's something of mine I'd love more eyes on. I'm very proud of my most recent story, "Blanquitos." (FYI it might take 5-10 minutes to read, at most)

Amazing how much is in this flash piece - the liminality of urban decay, what creeps in along those edges, sibling rivalry, and regret
The beautiful language helps the horror go down - much like you might swallow something along with tepid pool water as you gulp for air
I also want you to check out @spicycloaca.bsky.social's "Poolhorse" (CW: gross, abandoned pool water, among other things lol), which will be included in Samir's forthcoming collection, Gore Poetics (2026).
