I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat. - Will Rogers

There's things in my life other than democracy and queer activism, but I'm not coming up with anything at the moment. She/her
A. I am obviously Tragic Backstory

B. There are more than one tag here that I am a little baffled how they JUST became canonical, but Hemipenes - given the age of omegaverse - was the first that caught my eye lolcry

... I would be very interested in hearing more about marshmallow root...

(and thank you for this commentary, because it's not actually all that nuanced a topic but people get so either/or never both about shit and it's dangerous.)

I meant that too! It seems like a classic example of "if you haven't been in an environment to encounter it you'd never know" issue.

I suspect it's a "newer than your grandparents would encounter it" issue.

The rise of the internet increases how often we're engaging in written speech, visual cues become as important as tone of voice.

Hey, thank you for posting this. I've been scrolling up and down through the labyrinth that is bsky threads for a bit now because I was certain someone would have posted a link to a deeper look at the subject that I can easily share!

And you did! I appreciate it. ❤️

Look, I am very small potatoes as an author. I make too little in royalties to live off them. But I can tell you the reason I got to write my 2nd book was bc the sales of the 1st were very good. That's what else you're eating into by pirating, our ability to keep writing what you claim to love.

So they steal from me then sell those stolen goods to a company who repackages those stolen goods and resells them again. Fuck all the way off. This isn't like ye olden days of pirating off Napster. This is entitlement and greed from AI companies and readers.

They also sell everything to companies building LLMs, there's a link offering their "datasets" (books, papers, etc) for tens of thousands of dollars USD. They also auto-scrape everything scanned and uploaded to Internet Archive's Open Library. So. Yeah. 🙃

Anyway, I recognize that there is a lot of awful shit out there, but truly you have to understand that (a) Western medicine is not the be all and end all of the entire world and (b) we have some huge honking holes in our ability to treat people, and people are going to try everything they can.
