"Access for all who choose it," doesn't resolve the issue of restricted opportunities for access, especially if you're in a context where the choice is not a live one or you are not made aware of the possibility TO choose.

All this. The contract is unacceptable, and the people with the clout need to be very clear that even trying this nonsense will result in artists and authors walking away without further discussion.

Note: That is not, in fact, what socialism is. However, this may be one of the more revealing political moments of the past decade: a leading politician openly acknowledging efforts to redefine a political term based on contemporary political rhetoric, as opposed to its original/historic meaning.

Okay, at this point I have to ask where the national Democratic party is on telling its candidates, "Don't talk like JK Rowling, it's probably demoralizing." Because this is just fucked. And if your answer is, "They need to run to the concerns of their district," you're fucking wrong.

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back

One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

We made up our minds that "AI is Bad" because IT'S BUILT WITH THE STOLEN SUM TOTAL OF OUR LIFE'S WORK, for which we have received no real recompense or restitution. Our labor is being blatantly exploited to create these products, and I have increasing contempt for people who elide that fact.

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

One week out, and this is where “I’ll do it later” starts costing people. If somebody in your family keeps saying they’ll get around to it, call them. If your coworker just moved and has been meaning to update everything, remind them.

One communications thing my nerd creatives could really benefit from is more concrete language. Even your own audience needs you to describe your project simply and clearly enough that two people would picture the same thing. Every time! I promise it is not as clear as you (the poster) think it is.
