My day job as a newspaper cartoonist is where 80-90% of my money is from. The other 10-20% is from teaching, cons, & editorial. Every 5-7 years Ill get a lump sum from a graphic novel. I stopped getting royalties from my one earned-out GN two years ago. I split living expenses with my spouse 60/40.
I know we know this, but authors need to get better at talking about how they actually make their money. Stop pretending it's from the books.

Hey.
Kindly reminder.
Content creators are not your friends just because you like their work. You do not know who we are.
This goes double for anyone under 18; be very careful about interacting with adults.
If any adult makes you feel uncomfortable, DO NOT ENGAGE THEM. RUN.

It stops sorting your inbox into folders, btw, when you turn this off. As the inbox folders predate Gemini, this is a passive-aggressive attempt to make gmail a miserable experience unless you turn AI on, not a necessity.
Really, *really* inconvenient but makes me more determined to keep it off.

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.

If you're trying to convince your friends to spend time on Bluesky rather than X, maybe show them this. X is not "the public town square" or about "free speech." It's "just what Elon Musk wants you to see." If you see stuff he doesn't like he'll step in to make sure you don't see it for long.
If you scroll on X, you are only being shown what Elon wants you to see. If you create content on X, no one will see it unless Elon wants them to.
