while reticent to ask for help regarding my own medical expenses, an emergency vet visit has strained us immeasurably. we still don’t know the outcome, only the price. if you enjoy my work, rem is the soul who keeps me sane enough to make it. anything helps. thank you. ko-fi.com/sabattons

This bill is legitimately the thing we've been waiting for. Forcing AI to reveal it's sources would cripple it, because it literally can't comply with the law, because all of it is stolen- they didn't record it Please sign to hasten the bubble popping

No longer content with pillaging intellectual work and dismembering our environment (already critically weakened), AI companies are now hellbent on destroying books galore including rare editions. Shut down these nefarious enterprises already.
news.com.au
AI labs buy, scan, shred millions of rare books
If you have retreated to physical books because the internet is too full of AI slop, bad news — now they’re shredding the books to feed their AI slop machines.

last I’ll say is they have a copy of Dalí’s novel Hidden Faces for $500, which has been sitting in their glass case for no less than a year now, relegated since I last saw it to a back of case lineup presumably to hide the swastika on the cover

feeling particularly bitter this week about the class of people who “dreamed of owning a bookstore” as children or whatever, so please excuse me until I inevitably delete this thread

🌹 @currantgleam.bsky.social · 29/07/2026
this is not even excusable by “well we can only sell what is sold/donated to us” like you can just not take the four other copies of Wicked

🌹 @currantgleam.bsky.social · 29/07/2026
tell me why (I have at least two guesses why) there are no fewer than five copies of Wicked, movie tie-in edition, in the “literary fiction” section but zero copies of James Baldwin or Toni Morrison

a nice stack. no reason though
stack of books on a concrete stair. The books are (from top down): War and the Iliad, essays by Simone Weil and Rachel Bespaloff; War Music by Christopher Logue; Omeros by Derek Walcott; and An Arrow’s Flight by Mark Merlis
