"Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed. That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore. They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?"

Capitalists always capitulate to fascism. Maybe the problem is capitalism? I am not surprised that they did this, and I don't know if it is possible for them to grow a spine.

I haven't felt like this since the 90s when we all knew we had to be careful what we said or the "Moral Majority" would come after you. Even then, we found our own ways around the system to get the message out. We did the same in the 50s. Looks like we need to do it yet again. Connect, speak out.

I feel like this a lot. I feel like such a dinosaur. Next year I will celebrate my 20th year as a podcaster, and podcasting has changed so much, I am not sure I still fit into the medium. Between the trolls and the political purity culture, I have slowed down.

It is scary seeing the foul head of censorship rise in the US, but if American history has taught me anything, its telling us not to do or say something only makes us do or say it more. We are rebels at heart.

Every time I hear someone say AI will take writers' jobs, I'm like, no. AI will never need its stories to be the glue that holds its life together. It will never have a need to make sense of the chaos of our existence and either escape it or work through it. Our best stories do exactly that.

My #wip is going to have a fiction podcast to accompany its release. The chapters are short, so the episodes will be short too. I am a little concerned about them being about 15 minutes each, but hopefully it will be in the sweet spot for people.

Find the voices that resonate with you and help them continue their work. I can tell you the struggle to keep going as indie creator. Between the witch hunts, the trolls, and the lack of funds, we need all the encouragement and support we can get.

I have so many thoughts about @taylorlorenz.bsky.social latest video. As a political animist, I believe it is important to grant personhood to many objects and things to use existing frameworks to navigate our relationship with them, and the laws we make about them.

I stopped publishing years ago because I didn't feel like I could compete with fast-drafted, write to market books. I am starting to publish again because I realized I don't care. I love my books and think others will too. That is all that matters.

The market for fiction was flooded with a bunch of written to market slop before AI. It just makes it easier for people to write to market. Write for the story and focus on building communities of readers who will spread the word about our work and who love it deeply.

If your cause is AI, I don't really know what to do with you. Datacenters need to be more environmentally friendly, no matter what they are for. People have always made slop, regardless of the tools. Capitalism is the real enemy.

It is time for all of us to stop all of these stupid satanic panics. There is real harm going on in the world. Focus on that, and leave other people alone. I am so sick of all the bs finger pointing so people can perform goodness. Leave artists and writers alone.
