I would advise people not to talk to USA Today for any reason, about anything ever, based on this thread. It's bad enough that the whole profession is circling the drain, but for a remaining publication to feed interviews into a slopifier without telling sources? When it's about SA? I just.. 🌋

hit and miss

PANEL 1: a pigeon sits, looking sad. their eyes are wide and with bags. there's blue shading over their face with blue lines over it, and three little purple spirals next to their head. they say "maybe some fresh air will help with my depression..."
PANEL 2: the pigeon sits on the grass under a tree outside, looking at the crisp blue sky. they look cheered up, and say "wow, what a wonderful, beautiful world...this is helping!"
PANEL 3: a zoom in on the pigeon, eyes shut happily. they say "i'll remember this for next time."
PANEL 4: text at the top says "next time". the pigeon is back under the tree, but looks as distressed as they did in panel 1. they mutter "i actually feel worse now"

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

A lot of people think Mary Shelly invented sci fi as a way to warn about the risks of unmitigated technological advancement, but actually it was about how men's obsession with the creation of life without an understanding of the duty of care it brings, would destroy the world

I will never get over the time on twitter circa 2017 when I, with maybe 40 followers, tweeted about remembering a scene from Tunnels by Roderick Gordon that was WILD for me to experience as a child, and Mr Gorden himself showed up to be like "lol got you" And I didn't even say the book title???

Part of the reason a lot of super rich people are so awful is that when normal people get an absurd amount of money, they immediately start looking around for who they can help.

Hey, guys, when the librarians get pissed about the destruction of books, it’s time to put those listening ears on. Because we are very comfortable with the idea that books are tools that can be retired. What’s happening right now is not that.

Politicians During Mental Health Awareness Month

4 panel comic

Panel 1: Politician on podium saying “Wooo! Let’s talk about mental health awareness!

Panel 2: Audience member with raised hand says “And also funding for mental health services?”

Panel 3: Politician presses button that triggers two rockets to pop out the sides of the podium

Panel 4: Politician makes a swift exit through the skylight above, mercifully avoiding any tricky questions about actually providing substantial care for people with metal health issues.

How To Spot An ICE Agent At A Gun Range

Cartoon

A Red Guy in shades and ear protectors is practicing at a shooting range. Along the wall in front of him are targets. They show the silhouette of a man’s upper body. However, the target the red guy is aiming at is hanging much lower than the rest, at roughly the height of a small child, and he is shooting from a kneeling position.

Amnesty International put out a major report documenting the influence of UK based anti trans gender critical organizations and their funding. Within hours, GC groups threatened defamation lawsuits and Amnesty was forced to pull it down. Proving the point they're anti rights. Anyways, here it is.

Remember artists: If someone approaches you for your art, then tells you to lower your price or else they’ll just get AI to do it, they’re lying! They already tried AI. It failed. That’s why they’re coming to you. People always want free (ai) until it sucks, then they try the premium option (you)

I made it so the decorative divider on my new creative writing website pulses like a heartbeat when you refresh the page or hover over it and also the mouse cursor is transgender and I would like to share this online. Hello online. :3 heartsystembeats.nekoweb.org #creativewriting #writersofbluesky

The homepage of heartsystembeats.nekoweb.org. The title at the top says "Hearts Beating Out Words," and the subtitle says "Alex R. Haze." There's a divider with a gradient across the page that says "my heart beats" over and over. The welcome page announces that this website is for creative writing and is under construction, that writing can be found but filtering hasn't been put together yet. There's a filler space for a bio and a navigation sidebar that shows links to a homepage, a publication page, a tip jar, a blog layout, an ao3 layout, a "random works" button, and just visible at the bottom is the start of links to social media, the top one being tumblr.
