Paulina Borsook’s “Cyberselfish,” which offered dire predictions about the tech world’s love for libertarianism, is finding fans. It only took 25 years.

🧵Spotted at a Christmas Market in Aotearoa New Zealand:
A tiny human is aghast at Mum's suggestion that she needs a nap.
Shaking her head vehemently, she roars: "I'm NOT sleepy!"
Mum sighs, agreeing that she is indeed not looking tired.
Tiny Human is indignant. "But I AM Mum! I'm VERY SLEEPY!" (1)

I just gave a little webinar + Q&A for writers debunking some of the so-called rules of writing, and it was fucking depressing how many questions people had about using AI "ethically".

Books with Pictures (@bkswpicspdx.bsky.social) in Portland, Oregon is a GREAT comic shop, and its owner in @omgkatiep.bsky.social is one of the best. The shop is going through a hard time right now, and if you want to help BwP out, they opened a GoFundMe to help do just that.

I just spent several happy minutes here. Some lovely writing.
We’ll share these little gems individually over the next while. All take just a few minutes (or less) to read. How else will you spend those 1-4 minutes? Doom scrolling? Worrying? Rage-baited? Scared? Lonely? How about a little trade?

One thing I think has occurred to me since my earlier post is that the problem most of us on the left are feeling right now is *powerlessness*. The right are entrenching themselves. They’re visible AF. They have all the media. They frame every debate.

An eye-opening article for me as an asexual person, but I imagine it might be helpful to people struggling with other marginal and hard-to-define identities as well.
Aspec invisibility isn’t the only obstacle in figuring ourselves out and embracing who we are.
You can't read a life written in invisible ink.
Asexual invisibility, intelligibility and learning to read ourselves.

I just slid my ballot into a drop box at my local Multnomah County Library. It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. Nobody questioned my right to vote.
I note this in case it's the last time.
