Keep fighting, authors. Cancel your dues and membership to this and any other group that capitulates to the LLM fraud machine and refuses to fight in your name to protect your rights as HUMAN creators. There is no ethical use of generative AI. Boycott the SoA. #AuthorsNotAlgorithms

1) If you're considering submitting a story -- or are approached to create art for any publications that Must Read Magazines owns, including Asimov's -- walk away. Their current contracts are too predatory and do not suitably value you, your work or your rights. There will be other opportunities. 2/

Two-panel meme of Fred from Scooby Doo. The Mystery, Inc. team has captured the villain in disguise, and Fred is removing their mask.

Panel 1: Fred is about to grab the ghost hood to pull it off. Around the villain are several phrases: "Protecting women's safety", "Fairness in sports", and "Gender critical".

Panel 2: Fred has removed the disguise to reveal who's really behind the entire charade. The villain is labeled "Nazi ideology".

The international chess Federation banned trans women from playing women's chess. CHESS. It's not about fairness. The fairness argument is intended to radicalize people into more violent forms of transphobia.

The entire article is just vaguely sourced anecdotes from social media. "Doctors have been cast as bigots" OK by whom, how so, why does this matter? The only "expert" cited is another columnist for the same fucking newspaper.
When sickness becomes integral to a person’s self-image, we shouldn’t be surprised that they fiercely defend that identity. Doctors, instead of providing much-needed support for a patient, have been cast as old-fashioned bigots standing in the way of an individual’s “self-actualisation”.

Dr Katie Musgrave, a general practitioner, has seen this phenomenon first-hand. She describes a “hyper-awareness of physical symptoms like fatigue and a racing heart” from patients who visit her seeking an explanation for their pain, with an expectation that there will be a single, incontrovertible diagnosis. Often though, she says, it is more likely that factors such as “a lack of sleep and exercise and a poor diet” are causing the patient’s symptoms, and these can be resolved with minimal medical intervention.

Dr Katie Musgrave is a South Devon-based NHS General Practitioner and a regular contributor to The Telegraph. She also provides a column for Pulse, the leading publication for UK GPs, and writes widely on primary care, NHS reform, and the frontline realities of modern medicine.

How having a disability became cool
Young women, nicknamed ‘sickfluencers’, are turning chronic illness into a lifestyle trend and entrenching a culture of economic inactivity

Young women are also more likely to get caught up in “social contagion” – the spontaneous spread of behaviours or emotions previously observed by sociologists in “outbreaks” of bulimia, self-harm and transgender ideology. What may have otherwise been transitory feelings are seized upon and obsessed over until they form a central pillar of a person’s identity. A chronic-illness influencer won’t want to get “better” any more than a female-bodied transgender person would want to re-identify with their sex.

The Simon Wiesenthal Center *literally blessed* Donald Trump while he was ushering Nazis into the government. The organization condemned anti-fascist Jews for using a Yiddish anti-fascist slogan. To pretend they represent anything but a fascist fringe is absurd.
