I love my new gym because it’s just dudes in their twenties as far as the eye can see, and to a dude in their twenties, a woman in her forties is invisible. Perfection.

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."

my opinion? everybody’s entitled to a free life, a roof over your head, work that pays that bills, little activities that make you happy, chicken fingers, and due process before the law. you’re not entitled to people liking you

the thing about being a romance reader for decades is we're always catching strays. the trick is to not give a fuck what people think about it.

This take is not really worth getting worked up about for me, but mass manufacture of clothes is more comparable (though still not really comparable) to *printing* of books. Somebody still decided what the clothes should look like.

Marketing a book when the world sucks is hard But if you need an escape and want to read about a girl with a gun getting her vengeance on against some bad men, check out THE DEVIL'S REVOLVER series and watch a young woman go outlaw against a system that sucks. www.devilsrevolver.com

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

This is the most important thing men can do, and they must be doing it immediately. People create culture. People can change it. If you can't remember the last time you created some social awkwardness by telling another man to stop with that shit, you probably aren't pulling your weight.

My Rage Against the Machine/Les Mis mashup is complete. This is my interpretation of the quilt guild’s summer challenge “quilt with your interpretation and/or feelings towards our current ‘democracy’” all hand stitched.

Quilt hanging on a card catalog. Neutral background with navy cursive appliqué “Do you hear thr people sing?” The background is embroidered in red starting light and getting bolder the lyrics to “killing in the name” the quilting effect is a focused sunburst from the center.

I love Taylor Swift’s music but selling 3 different single song cds is absolutely fucking gross from both a financial perspective and as consumerist waste. So much plastic trucked across the country when people can barely afford groceries. Knock it the fuck off, ma’am.
