I know I RTd this last night, but I had a closer read of it now, and yes, this is helpful, if you haven't already done these things. I had done them, but it was good to double-check, as I've heard of updates that turn these features back on.

Public Domain Super Heroes!

Oh heck, did I mention, we have a reading tonight!? @tkrex.bsky.social booked it, @syr.bsky.social and @charliejane.bsky.social and Lehua Taitano and Charlie Getter are at the mic, and Cafe Suspiro is hosting and _hot dang_ this is gonna pop! 6pm-8pm, 1246 Folsom St. in SAN FRANNIE!!!!

Read the whole thread, but think about what this means about stories in periodicals and anthologies. SHE WALKS IN SHADOWS, eds. Silvia Moreno-Garcia and Paula R. Stiles, my 1st pro sale, was stolen by LibGen. The book won a World Fantasy Award. But as an anthology published in Canada, it's excluded.

So proud of how this turned out, and so very honored to have been trusted with the beautiful works of these #neurodivergent creators.

I always encourage defrauded writers to report the fraud as widely as possible (there are resources for doing so in the Legal Recourse section of the WB website)--but scammers always try to stay a step ahead (as if there weren't already enough to worry about) www.zdnet.com/article/scam...

Wait — there’s a Gormenghast opera by CAN keyboardist Irmin Schmidt??!

Top VA officials testified that they don’t know how many doctors and nurses have left.

We do.

The VA is down 600+ doctors and 1,900+ nurses this year.

After years of growth, the number of docs has declined each month since Trump took office.

Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away.
