I can finally reveal the publisher of my upcoming book on Sam Bankman-Fried! "Stealing the Future: SBF and the Techno-Utopians" will be released in the fall of 2025 by Repeater Books. This is a huuuuuge deal - read on to learn about Repeater. But as I put it in the newsletter: HOLY FUCK. 🧵 https://tinyurl.com/4rhen3ty

Sean Connery is half-naked here because I'll now share a publisher with luminaries including *John Boorman*, director of Zardoz and Deliverance. But most Repeater authors follow late cofounder Mark Fisher: philosophers and essayists who make complex ideas engaging.

I've been reading books from Repeater + Zer0 for nearly two decades. Here are some faves that have influenced me deeply: Mark Fisher, "The Weird and the Eerie" A mind-blowing exegesis on Weird Fiction. Horror is core to Repeater's DNA, and mine.

Eugene Thacker, "In the Dust of This Planet" An articulation of joyous nihilism, and key influence on Nick Pizzolatto's True Detective. The deep failure of Effective Altruism (and Longtermism etc) is their refusal to face death.
