This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

I love these comics so much. Setup, twist, punchline, packing entire stories into three panels. And now the book is in transit!

I would believe people's violent testimonies about how much they care about the human written word a lot more if I saw them regularly sharing and engaging with interesting writing, I keep thinking

As a longtime tech that made a decent living working with users, systems and integration across varieties of use cases, this is the best outline to date of why/why not ai It’s the techbro behavior and pull of water and power resources that give me pause. I have no issue with the tools themselves.

Burned many rolls trying to recreate her flash-fill-at-sunset portrait style. Simply one of the most amazing contemporary portrait artists, her works break and transcend any mortal frames.

shirley jackson you tell em www.newyorker.com/books/page-t...
ar and away the greatest menace to the writer—any writer, beginning or otherwise
—is the reader. The reader is, after all, a kind of silent partner in this whole business of writing, and a work of fiction is surely incomplete if it is never read. The reader is, in fact, the writer's only unrelenting, genuine enemy. He has everything on his side; all he has to do, after all, is shut his eyes, and any work of fiction becomes meaningless. Moreover, a reader has an advantage over a beginning writer in not being a beginning reader; before he takes up a story to read it, he can be presumed to have read everything from Shakespeare to Jack Kerouac. No matter whether he reads a story in manuscript as a great personal favor, or opens a magazine, or—kindest of all—goes into a bookstore and pays good money for a book, he is still an enemy to be defeated with any kind of dirty fighting that comes to the writer's mind.

I was fuxking around in the empty house and just hit and held the same note for 40 seconds. It wavered all over the place because I’m completely untrained but wow what an amazing power with which I can annoy others from a distance. “Hey, listen to THIS”

My partner did the usual magic prepping for guests, and after everyone was properly greeted, seated, and happily eating and socializing, leaned over to me and said, “this is good, now I can take a gummie.” Indeed 😎❤️ May the rest of your Sunday run on autopilot so the magicians can have fun, too.

“Thank you for dubbing me “mom of the year.” Please believe me when I tell you I can only be so with the dad sitting next to me.” There are so very many good people in this world. This a good reminder of why that is sometimes so hard to see.

I have an avoidance issue with last seasons and final chapters. The final season of Peaky Blinders sits in queue some years later. The book Mona Lisa Overdrive sat for weeks after I bought it. And completely ignored the last episodes of Star Trek:Enterprise after the slog of S3. So here goes. S4.

I’m a big fan of hot weather, and the shorter days and cooler nights are harbinger of what’s yet to come, much to my chagrin. In the inner room, I will ride until I cannot.

33yrs ago the New York Times published an article criticising Federico Fellini and other foreign language films — calling them "hard work". MARTIN SCORSESE sent this in response.

Boss’s boss asked for a quick assist and as I swung into the office they were carving up a grapefruit for a snack that looked and smelled absolutely fabulous and now all I can think about is grapefruit because it’s been ages since I had one, they are regrettably banned from the homesteads. Alas.

N.K. Jemisin is the first author to win the Hugo Award for Best Novel in 3 consecutive yrs for her Broken Earth series & first to win for all 3 novels in a trilogy. Recipient MacArthur Genius Grant, 2020. She was born #OTD in 1972. Happy Birthday @nkjemisin.bsky.social 🎈 #SciFi #Fantasy #BookSky
A montage portrait of science fiction author N.K. Jemisin. On the left, she appears in a close-up photo with long, dark braided hair, wearing earrings, a delicate necklace with a pendant, a deep maroon sweater, and a shimmering green scarf draped around her neck. She has a calm, confident expression and gazes directly at the camera against a softly blurred dark background. To the right are three stacked book covers of her works. Top: The Fifth Season (The Broken Earth trilogy), with a dark, textured design and metallic title. Middle: The Obelisk Gate, featuring an intricate, glowing red-and-purple circular mandala-like emblem. Bottom: The Stone Sky, showing a dramatic stormy sky with a massive floating obelisk.

The overall composition highlights the author alongside prominent covers from her award-winning Broken Earth series.
