👻 The Nina of 100 Demons 🎃 @ninaberry.bsky.social · Nov 11

Hey, new followers! I'm Nina Berry, a writer by night and a cog in the Hollywood TV machine by day. I travel whenever I can afford it, love books, and got an MA in film for some reason. I play ttrpg games, swear sometimes, and am a passionate armchair Egyptologist.

I couldn't leave this one alone. Like it seems silly and harmless, but this is such a slippery slope in to damaging conspiracy theories like anti-vax and climate change denial, so I'm going to keep explaining it in the hopes people start actually thinking about things.

Like I wasn't going to respond... #shorts #kardashians

One day I don't have to keep repeating these points. Also I threw this together super quick last night -- hoping these are clear enough short answers! If you enjoy these shorts, consider supporting…

Ask a Germanist what "industrialized deportation" sounds like.

dell cameron @dell.bsky.social · 1d

NEW: ICE is planning to build a shadow deportation network in Texas. A proposal outlines a 24/7 transport operation run by armed contractors—turning Texas into the logistical backbone of an industrialized deportation machine.

My latest @wired.com: www.wired.com/story/ice-is...

Early planning documents reviewed by WIRED describe a statewide transport grid designed for steady detainee transfers across Texas, with ICE estimating each trip to average 100 miles. Every county would have its own small, around-the-clock team of contractors collecting immigrants from local authorities deputized by ICE. It is a subtle transfer of the physical custody process into the hands of a private security firm—authorized to carry firearms and perform transport duties “in any and all local, county, state, and ICE locations.”

I've said this about writing and art -- the goal was not to replace writers and artists with AI, the result was either:

a) *threaten* to replace them with AI, and use that as leverage to be able to pay them less

b) replace them unsuccessfully and pay them less to fix the shit the AI barfed out

tante @tante.cc · 1d

This is sometimes read as "look 'AI' isn't working". But the opposite is true.

_This_ is what "AI" is _for_. Push down labor power, push down wages, make employment more insecure.

I feel like there's a horror movie in there. Plenty of horse monsters in history. The man-eating mares of Diomedes, the horse-headed sagari from Japan that drops down on people from trees. You'd be perfect casting.

Breeders Cup weekend marks the 6th anniversary of my passing at age 27. In my memory, I ask for donations to my legacy, Fresh Start TBLC, so like me, all thoroughbreds leaving racing find a human to love them & a pasture to call home.

This is a REALLY cool project with a bunch of worlds in different genres you can play. I wrote a superhero one with new concepts and characters, and the ONLY way to get it is if they meet their stretch goal!

Hit Point Press is one of my favorite TTRPG publishers!

You think horror films are big now. Just wait. Looming economic nastiness + oppression = horror horror, everywhere.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.

It’s really devastating to see the devaluation of so many things (reading, writing, critical thinking) that I have always thought were paramount.

A writer tried dating alt-right men as an experiment to learn about them. There is so much going on here I don't even know where to start

www.cosmopolitan.com/uk/love-sex/...

I told him that I was born in Russia and was a writer. He showed me a list he’d written of his favourite desserts in the city. It was a sober hobby he’d started during the pandemic, going to restaurants by himself, sampling sweets. He made a lot of lists, he said, most of them food-related. I asked what other kinds he made.

“Lists of lies liberal white women tell about Donald Trump,” he replied.

Suddenly, his leg was shaking. He grabbed the edges of the table and raised his voice: “White, liberal women are a plague on our society.”

He proceeded to drink 11 iced coffees.
