If you are a writer/author, you are probably aware of the issues with AI in the book industry, and maybe you don't know about the issues with illustration. ALL generative ai is bad (stolen copyright, etc), so don't use generated images in your blog or posts here. It's an immediate Unfollow for me.

Oh man one of my bus routes takes me past a local high school right at the time that school lets out & I have to believe this is some kind of divine punishment for being an Annoying Teenager On Public Transit, myself.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.
(And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.)
