Since a lot of folks aren't going to Facebook, a little something I wrote in 2014 that seems especially apropos at this moment. The Rules of the New Aristocracy.

If you subscribe to Microsoft 365 Personal, the 40% price increase is a con to upsell you AI. Your old plan and price is still there called "Classic" - but only if you try to cancel.

Microsoft should be ashamed if not prosecuted.

Mister Rogers never misses
You know, your own imagination is far more wonderful Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood Than any computer could ever be. You know why? Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood You’re a living human being. And a computer is just a machine. Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood Human beings are far more wonderful than machines. Mister Rogers’ Neighborhood

Every day I log in to see new posts in self-pub support groups about how someone wants to or chose to use an AI cover for their book because they "don't have the money" for anything else, and inevitably this book is torn apart by readers (so says the post) or by fellow authors in the comments

You may have seen this post circling talking about how important it is to tell creators when you appreciate what they do.

The irony is it's MY post from Tumblr stolen by someone else. Please reskeet THIS post & NOT the stolen one bc we support creators making their own work on bluesky.
My post from Tumblr which reads: I genuinely wonder if people realize how many projects get abandoned because the readership "wasn't there", when in reality, the readership just stayed silent. It's a big thing in trad pub that book series get discontinued because readers pirate the books or wait until the series is finished to buy a copy, leading the publisher to think that nobody actually wants the book enough to continue the series, but it happens with indie creators too. I've discontinued a lot of free, online series because it's not worth putting 3-5 hours a week into posting a project for no readers. Sometimes I finish the series for me but just never post it again, other times I don't finish it at all because it feels more worthwhile to put my time into other things. Sometimes I hear from readers who are sad or upset that I didn't finish something they were liking, but the *reason* it never got finished is because I didn't know anyone liked it. If you like something, tell the creator, tell your friends, make some noise about it. If you would be sad if a story never finished, make that interest known because one of my biggest considerations before discontinuing a series is "will people miss this? Will I be letting people down" and 9/10 times, I come to the conclusion of "no, it doesn't even seem like anyone's reading this" only to learn after I've moved on that apparently someone was.

do you also sometimes dream of being semi-rich just so that you can donate to, commission or shop from every artist you see online

United we stand, divided we fall.
Political cartoon showing a line of dominos. The first one is labeled Trans Rights and has a blue-pink-white trans flag painted on it and is tilting. Three people (representing a trans man, trans woman, and person wearing rainbow colors) are pushing back to keep it from falling. Behind it the second domino is labeled "Gay Rights" and "Freedom of Expression" and has a couple, one member of who is pulling the other from behind the domino and walking towards the first domino. The 3rd one "Women's Rights" and "Free Love", a woman is pointing and shouting to rally others behind the domino to come forwards, the 4th one " Free Speech" and "Democracy" and has people peering out from behind it as well as two people running forwards with a piece of lumber, the 5th one "Freedom of Religion" and "Modernity", and has a few people nervously peeking out from behind it, the 6th one is "Literacy". Dominos 7-10 are unlabeled and faded out in the background. Text on bottom: "United we stand, Divided we fall"
