Just so we're clear. I don't use AI in my writing, creativity or in my life. There is no way I will pivot to AI, or that I will use the stolen work of my fellow creatives to make myself richer.

Lis Sladen and Sadie Miller were lovely to me thirty two years ago. I was already annoyed with this slop but this is heartbreaking to see. AI with real people is creepy & upsetting, *don't do it*. Aninate real art with real soundtracks. Use impressionists. You can play. But this crosses the line.

"Christian nationalism" in the UK is essentially a post-religious identity. Unlike the evangelical right in the US, it has no theological content, does not require belief in God & demands no moral or religious commitment. It reduces Christianity to a cultural "heritage" to be "defended" from Islam

Watched Fellowship of the Ring a couple months back and was just mesmerized with how honestly in love with Fantasy it was. We don't see that much anymore.

I need a judge's ruling on this, friends, because it looks like we might have a potentially *new* heresy on the field!

In the beginning, the heresies were spaced apart by centuries. Then by decades. Then by years. The last one was a week. In four days, we could be seeing heresies every 8 hours, until they are coming every 4 minutes. We should witness a double even within seven days.

Dear people at #FantasyCon who are looking up our books on Amazon. The paper editions are cheaper here than online. The ebooks are the same price but Amazon doesn’t get a cut so the author gets more money.

When your employer tells you that you have to use AI, ask whether they are willing to accept liability for any resulting cognitive harm.

My favorite was the guy who was REALLY upset that the description of "what makes a fascist" in one of my books was essentially a description of HIM and wow, did I even care that I was insulting a fan this way?

glimpses of them in the trailers I thought they'd be going for a Prince and the Pauper kind of thing, but it looks to be more of a 'sheltered upbringing' vs 'outcast upbringing'. Both have deep insecurities around being alone, being isolated and different.

Joel Cornah @joelcornah.bsky.social · 09/10/2026

Mild spoilers... The tone is a nice hybrid of the cheerfulness of Season 1 Avatar and the more serious tone of Korra. Thematically, it looks like there's going to be an emphasis on belonging, family (found and otherwise), and isolation. Pavi and Nisha are incredibly cute, and when we got the first

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

Under financial capitalism, profit is the prime directive. But care is too labor-intensive to be profitable at the level of compensation needed for sustainability. And it can't be easily automated at the level of quality required for human needs.

It's telling that men would rather try to invent tech to replace humans' role in caregiving than step up as equal partners in parenting. Telling, that is, in that it shows how financial capitalism and patriarchy work together to dissuade men from doing "unprofitable" labor, like the work of care.

Me: I can just play an audiobook from my phone.
My wife: But then it won't be in your voice.

Avatar the Last Airbender does a good job of having it both ways with a sympathetic villain in Zuko and a pure evil monster in Fire Lord Ozai and I think the contrast makes both of them more interesting.

Just dawning on me how Keir Starmer managed to hit multiple levels of petty with his resignation. Doing it on Burnham’s first day in the Commons as PM, making him fight an unnecessary by-election, dangling a tempting seat in front of Polanski and then having the by election on the week of the Greens
