It's literally the Fascist playbook. While Liberals twist themselves into knots over the latest "outrage", the jack boots are mobilizing and hitting the streets. There was a quote from a "famous" Nazi jurist that explains this.

I would be EXTREMELY annoyed to discover my PR is "AI"-generated, and as someone bombarded with dozens of "AI"-generated emails daily, I assure you the stink of "AI" is immediately noticable and immediately dismissible. Publishers are not doing their new books any favors in using it.

Bluesky pals! I have a sci-fi graphic novel called DRIVE, & it's my favorite thing I've ever done! If you need a long, escapist read at the moment the entire thing is free to read, here: drivecomic.com (THIS PAGE: Emiliana)
PANEL 1: The TRES PRIMOS (Tall, Squat, and Large) surround NANDO, after CAYETANO has walked away.
NANDO: Lord.
LARGE PRIMO: Yeah, Cayetano’s always been…a lot.

PANEL 2: A woman with short, half-shaved hair bursts from the crowd. She wears a dark uniform buttoned low. She wears distinctive glasses and large hoop earrings, and her lips are a dark lipstick.
EMILIANA: GENTLEMEN! What a thing to see you after 34 years.
TALL PRIMO: Emiliana.

PANEL 3: Close up on EMILIANA.
EMILIANA: And based on the buffalo grunting I could hear across the hall, I see Caye’s his usual calm, erudite self.

PANEL 4: SQUAT PRIMO holds his arm out begrudgingly introducing NANDO to EMILIANA.
SQUAT PRIMO: Emiliana, may I present your cousin, Fernando Cruz.
EMILIANA: Indeed! FERNANDO. I must admit, your files do you a disservice. You look much older than fifteen years.
NANDO: SIXTEEN.

PANEL 5: In silhouette, EMILIANA and NANDO face off.
EMILIANA: Sixteen! Well my goodness! Someone bring our new Emperor TWO pudding cups!
NANDO: “ha ha”. Yeah. Pudding cups.

PANEL 6: EMILIANA and NANDO shake hands, but NANDO glares at her.
NANDO: Good luck on stage, COUSIN. I’m gonna walk away now before I figure out why everyone avoids you.

PANEL 7: In the background EMILIANA looks shocked. SQUAT PRIMO and NANDO walk away, SQUAT PRIMO looks thrilled, NANDO looks nervous.
SQUAT PRIMO: WOW! Where’d that come from?!?
NANDO: Don’t tell her I actually do like pudding.

Following along @mzakharuk.bsky.social's reread of @juliaserano.bsky.social's "Whipping Girl". Barely any cis people understand the rampant rape culture inherent to the medical gatekeeping of trans healthcare. These "professionals" know the power they hold over trans people and often abuse it.
> In the 1970s, Suzanne J. Kessler and Wendy McKenna came across several instances in which gatekeepers were rather blatant about this practice: “A clinician during a panel session on transsexualism at the 1974 meeting of the American Psychological Association said that he was more convinced of the femaleness of a male-to-female transsexual if she was particularly beautiful and was capable of evoking in him those feelings that beautiful women generally do. Another clinician told us that he uses his own sexual interest as a criterion for deciding whether a transsexual is really the gender she/he claims.”

One of the great things about writer retreats is getting perspective from other authors on what big 5 publishers are doing, on the spectrum of “literal angels on earth” to “I have been waiting for edits on a complete manuscript for over a year”

Reminder that trad pub authors aren’t eligible to unionize in the United States. They can certainly throw their weight around at a certain level and demand their contracts include protections…for them. New authors don’t have that power. From exploitative to worse!

In Imp of the Perverse, you deal with your perversities by hunting down those who have given into theirs. Rooted in the truly strange 1830s/1840s America, the horror comes from seeing the toll monsters take from those around them, and your choices to accept or reject power. www.ndpdesign.com/imp

A drawing of some items arranged neatly: A tortoiseshell comb, a blue ribbon, a notebook with paper scraps, two keys, a sealed letter, a knife or letter opener (ornate), a majolica bottle with a blue bird design, a pencil with a pencil extender, some sweets, and a string with coins threaded onto it.
