That is absolutely not true, the experience of a story is an act of creation between text and the reader. The author brings the words, you bring your unique experiences and perceptions to the way they unfold in your mind. There isn’t a *wrong* way to experience a book! I’m sorry for what

I don’t know all the details but fuck whatever puritans are dogpiling you. I know knowing it intellectually doesn’t help the Feelings so let me add an external voice that you are a good and worthy person, writing is not Harm, and I’m so sorry this is happening to you, it’s not ok!

I completely sympathize with where you’re coming from, and it makes me so sad and angry—not with YOU obviously, but with the enshitification of it all, and the way everything valuable about the old internet is being wrung from it in favor of endless profitability. I hate that it’s now cost your-

🚨 BREAKING NEWS: A federal judge just HALTED the destruction of Big Bend. This is a massive victory for the landowners, local communities, and everyday Texans who stood up to protect one of our state's greatest treasures. The fight isn't over, but today, the people won.

Graphic from the Center for Biological Diversity over a scenic view of Big Bend. Large text reads, “MASSIVE WIN FOR BIG BEND.” Below, it says a federal judge has frozen all destruction throughout the Big Bend region until the project’s legality can be determined in court. The graphic adds that the Center will continue fighting to save Big Bend and asks supporters to join them.

I really wanted to enjoy a book by a creative I respect but I fundamentally disagree with the premise (enforcing Too Old For Trick or Treating on a preteen—childhood is short enough without taking away whimsy before teenaged self-consciousness robs them of it)

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:
Forget ChatGPT Flyers

Broadsheets
Unlimited fonts
Stretch them
Or cram a really long sentence into one line for no good reason
No whitespace
Mix capital and lowercase

What’s the age threshold where you finally understand that a story’s success does not depend on how much it is morally instructive, because I swear if you are on Bluesky you are too old to be holding onto that.

I did this last night at a Walgreens and for the first time ever the cashier asked me what was the name associated with the account? I froze for half a second and then, obviously, said “…Jenny?” She went “hm, is there a Renee?” and I quickly agreed and got out of there 😂
