If you read the article this was straight up a torture program that also featured a bunch of sexual assault, abuses on a level that one will day be in textbooks with the question how did it go on so long

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed

I really hope authors who lean into cheeky marketing, stressing how unhinged and smutty their books are, have been calling payment processors and their representatives over the censorship of adult media 😀

This is an interesting thread and also interesting as it mirrors a lot of discussions in the literary fiction, which is also dying out as a category in many ways.

(Obviously, anyone who has read my novel Metallic Realms knows both of these are conversations on my mind...)

Matthew Claxton @matthewclaxton.bsky.social · Aug 29

Science fiction – printed, published science fiction, and sci-fi as a distinct publishing category – is dying. I think it's obvious at this point. It's not dead yet, and who knows, maybe a miraculous intervention could save the patient. But…

A current day and far-future science fantasy story that explores an underlying thread of Islamophobia, casteism, classism, racism, queerphobia and colonization within society. Even beyond--family, romance, friendship and love. #booksky #epicfantasy #lgbtq #kickstarter bsky.app/profile/nail...

It's week 3 of The Protector and the Annihilation Kickstarter! If you've ever wanted a novel with many different twin protagonists, one that explores societal and power structures and focuses on many MLM and WLW romances, try The Protector and the Annihilation! www.kickstarter.com/projects/blu...

THE PROTECTOR AND THE ANNIHILATION KICKSTARTER HAS BEGUN...!

Specifics: "THE PROTECTOR AND THE ANNIHILATION" EPIC SCIENCE ROMANTASY SPECIAL EDITIONS, 3 COUPLE ACRYLIC CHARMS, 3 COUPLE ENAMEL PINS, 7 TAROT CARDS, "THE PROTECTOR'S MEMORY OF THEM UNDER THE SUNLIGHT" SIDE NOVELLA SPECIAL EDITIONS, UP TO 29 KICKSTARTER-EXCLUSIVE SHORT STORIES, AND UP TO 6 COMICS.

Art description: The BG is a pretty sunlit checkered background with aqua and gold. There's the orange cover of "The Protector and the Annihilation" with a splash of aqua-green-blue on the right, featuring the fathers Ranvir Chandrani and Armando Rivera looking concerned at the viewer and a falling Antonio Chandrani-Rivera, their son. Armando wears an interesting emo violet mesh shirt with flowery netting and Ranvir wears a panjabi, while Antonio wears a bluish hoodie uniform. On the left, there are two young men hanging out in a pool with green grasses. The young men are Ranvir Chandrani and Armando Herrera-Rivera. Ranvir is drawn with dark brown skin and vibrant dark brown eyes with red specks, with his bust without any clothes and with his neck turning toward the viewer. He has a soft smile and wears a white round earring. His hair is a short dark black-ish blue with his bang hair falling in a swoosh by his face. Armando is drawn with a charming smile, looking right toward the viewer with a tilt of his head. His bust is also without clothes. He has light bronze skin and curious amber eyes with a speck of red in them. His brown-black hair is long and falling behind him, and he has side bangs that frame his face prettily.

Revised thread for "Alejandro Altaha Hates Soul Bonds."...! This comic mini-series explores the world of Blue Horizon, particularly themes that will appear in the The Protector and the Annihilation novel.

[ #comic #comicsky #ocsky #ocs #sketch #doodle #dailyTPATA #epicfantasy #lgbtq #lgbt ]

alejandro is blushing heavily with a surprised smile as antonio seems to sweet-talk him, or something similar. alejandro has a shy stance and antonio is leaning in with his arms held loosely behind his back, with a foot popping up. alejandro has long dark hair while antonio has falling rougish hair that is implied blue but, due to the purple and pink color tones of the comic, is more periwinkle purple.

it says "alejandro altaha hates (drawn over text) S/O? (instead of "soul."

by alejandro it says "nyaa."

Apologies for not updating sooner, it's been...a struggle.

To summarize; I was recently hospitalized twice over a GI bleed causing anemia alongside catching covid. I'm currently to meet with a GI doctor. I also need further imaging & to resume physical therapy but can't afford transportation costs

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

Ars Technica @arstechnica.com · Aug 27

AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.

Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action

Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.
