Apple...Are you really going to have me turn off "Siri Learn from this App" for every single one of 350 apps, individually, to fully turn off AI scraping and processor/battery draining processes on my own damn device?

And when I next update the OS you'll make me do it all over again?

Fuck you.

This is wonderful.

Thinking it wouldn’t be necessary if artists could still profit commercially from the success of our work.

But multi billion dollar corporations decided they’d like it all for free, thanks, to offer to the public for almost nothing.

Irish taxpayers will now subsidise that.

Correctly gendering people and calling them by the names they claim as their own is not a reward for good behaviour.

I’ve always said I don’t read romance. But the Skip storyline in Heated Rivalry has me curious. I’m looking for recommendations. But I’m going to be VERY specific about what I do/don’t want.

Please don’t recommend anything without reading below. Self-recs are fine if they meet the below.

I’m halfway through writing a new book in a new series.

So obviously now is the time for me to have a brand new idea for a brand new book in a whole new genre. One that will require a co-writer who can do trans masc spicy scenes. Because that’s how AuDHD works.

On that note:

Trans authors (I mean authors who are trans, NOT cis people who write about trans people), drop your book links here and I'll try to repost as many as I can throughout the day.

Cis people: Repost trans authors' book links.

Cis people who want to complain about being excluded: gtfo
Being a trans author is fucking weird right now. Hell is actively unfolding all around us but I still need to be like, "hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book? It won't make anything better, but it's kinda fun?"

So....hey, everyone, wanna buy my silly little queer book?

Every time somebody tells me they tone down their OCs and sanitize their creative work for fear of backlash I immediately grow horns. No. Get in the car. We're going straight to Derangement HQ with a side of Fuck That fries.

For the record, there are many many people I follow and follow me that I'm learning from and inspired by and you're all so important in this period of uncertainty and darkness. Keep being the rabble-rousers and bleeding hearts you are because the world needs every ounce of it and more.

Hannah Spencer is the #Green candidate for the #GortonAndDenton by-election. The far right is obsessed with her. They’re utterly convinced she’s married to a multimillionaire.

After someone told me her partner was not only a millionaire but actually the head of AstraZeneca, I did some digging.

I live in the UK. My parents live in Canada. So, once a year, my partner and I fly from London to Edmonton. This usually involves a stop in Toronto. Since I have family and friends there, we take couple of days.

I’m looking at flights for thisthis year’s trip. The cheapest option is full-on insane.

This is a great time to get off Substack. Beehive and Ghost are good alternatives.

As an added benefit, your blog won't be driving traffic to Nazis and their sycophants.
The popular blogging platform Substack – used by numerous British comic creators to promote their work – has suffered a data breach. The company is warning users to take extra caution with any emails or text messages you receive…

Fascism wants you to believe that you are alone. That you are isolated. That the feelings you have are yours and nobody else has them because everybody is too afraid to speak.

But love is stronger than fascism. Community is stronger than fascism.

New month, new book thread! My first book was The First by Kipjo K. Ewers (Bastard by Tyla Collier).

After being convicted of murdering her husband, Sophia is executed. When she wakes up, they do it again. And again. Then she escapes.
