When you’re in your 20s, you’ll walk by an indie bookshop that you’ve never visited. (Amazon is convenient.) You’ll see their bookseller recs, a cat in the window, & curation & feel the need to go in.
It’s really important that you do, because that indie will be your safe space for years to come.

🧵 I've been a writer for my entire life, and worked very hard to get where I got by 2022. I was making a 100k a year, though I live in an expensive city. Suddenly it was just gone. I had three careers, really, and they all vanished because of AI, and suddenly I was struggling each month to pay rent.
When the AI boom began, copywriters were singled out as one of the jobs most vulnerable to AI. Now, three years later, I wanted to hear from workers on the frontlines of the industry, to hear what had actually taken place on the ground.
For many, it was even worse than they'd feared.

"I was forced to use AI until the day I was laid off." Copywriters reveal how AI has decimated their industry
Copywriters were one of the first to have their jobs targeted by AI firms. These are their stories, three years into the AI era.

This is a really important read for many people out there, as this has been erroneously reported.
The spending bill DOES ban HRT from Medicaid, which is horrific.
It does NOT ban ACA/Private plans from covering it, as Gillian Branstetter of the ACLU lays out in her thread here.

Seeing a lot of confusion about the budget's provisions on trans care--it would strip Medicaid funds for trans care (which is awful enough) but it would NOT prohibit private insurers from providing coverage for trans care. It actually does something far more narrow and wonkier
Under the ACA, plans sold on the individual or small-group Marketplaces have to provide coverage for certain treatments called Essential Health Benefits (EHB). Only a few treatments (like abortion) are prohibited from coverage as an EHB by HHS--but insurers are not banned from covering it altogether

This is what the opposition did in the Hungary Parliament when they passed the Pride ban.
May we have congresspeople with an ounce of the courage.

No but honestly like why is art only important to everyone in times of suffering?
Like why do artists/ppl have to suffer greatly to produce great art?
Even if we do get some great art about it I get a little tired of this sentiment, like I do also wanna be able to get out of bed daily, Dandelion

anyway do you guys remember that tweet that’s like
“artists: we need art more than ever! [does a play slightly worse than it’s ever been done]”
because we’re gonna be having a lot of that pretty soon
