I may start something here, and I don’t have much of a platform. I also don’t have bridges to burn. This seems… bad.

Theft is one of many problems with AI. Others include: not paying an artist, destroying the environment, AI art being total ass (see the new Feast for Crows illustrated edition), etc

Amazing things are happening on Kickstarter’s fiction section, y’all.

Uh… “why choose”? Do I want to know?

Had to age verify because my state forced BlueSky to do it.

This is how I feel whenever I get rejections on my internet horror inspired stories.

My fellow Christians will worship a guy murdered by the state because of a moral panic and then say our religion supports oppressing minorities because they’re afraid of them. He didn’t rise for this crap.

Had a conversation with a friend about Star Wars pre-Disney, and he said, “There’s probably a book series about the guy who forgot Chewie’s medal.” So I spent literally five whole minutes making this in Canva on my phone and told him, “They did!”

Hear me out: Let them rush the planes out too quickly. Put Musk in charge. Cut corners, remove redundant safety features, save money on every aspect possible, and don’t test anything before the first maiden voyage, preferably over an ocean.
You know, to make America great again.

OMG, this guy did the thing, this thumbnail is unironically the “there’s two genders: male and political” and it’s a Star Wars is ruined by women video. It’s like watching someone trying to win Nazi bingo.

A fascinating West German novel about how a terrible press can ruin a private citizen’s life. It’s about the length of Of Mice and Men but is dense with themes and social commentary. Heinrich Boll is a good writer for this moment in time.

If I understand the biology right, I think Trump just made everyone a lady. Or we’re all to use she/her pronouns like in the Imperial Radch in Leckie’s Ancillary Justice.
