who do they think the dipshits who use chat gpt are?

it's been called unhinged but i find it quite reasonable: far too many writers want much more to be 'writers' than actually write and those people should simply stop.

You should read poetry often not merely because poetry is is good for you to enjoy and learn from, but because you will be able to spot hacks muscling into that space before they start cranking out dogshit in the literary fiction world. You can be like 5 years ahead of everyone on being a hater.

before the long dream,
sand pressed into stone.

a house, carved
from watermelon
left to rot
in fields of bone,
shallow graves
filled with shackled legs.

The Transfeminine Review @thetransfemininereview.com · 3d

Alright I need a short story break before I dive back into another gargantuan anthology, so let's read one of the oldest transfemme books I'm aware of!

Autobiography of an Androgyne is one of the earliest "trans memoirs," published a solid 15 years before the commonly cited 'first' trans memoir.

Autobiography of an Androgyne by Jennie June

every ai data center should be pulled down, brick by brick, replaced by indigenous plants and stone formations.
every ice detention center should be pulled down, brick by brick, and turned into parks where children of all backgrounds can play.
this will all end because it absolutely fucking must.
