"The fact that writing—that any form of art—requires so much of us is a part of what makes it so valuable. The fact that it is by a person, with their own experiences of the world, makes it even more so." @marianneeloise.bsky.social's argument against AI.

In Defense of Difficulty
As someone who, overnight, lost some of their capacity to think and write, I cannot comprehend why a person would choose to give those faculties over to a machine.

Want to be a better tourist? Start by embracing Icelandic elf lore, like @marianneeloise.bsky.social did. "By having patience and respect for the places you visit, even when it requires a suspension of disbelief, you might open yourself up to a little magic."

I Didn’t Believe in Elves Until I Did

“I’m not perfect, because nobody is—especially when our food and agricultural systems make it near impossible to make faultless ethical choices. But my imperfection is also what allows my beliefs to evolve and adapt: Without room to falter, we can’t have space to grow.”
conversationalist.org
Practice Not Perfection
With my veganism and other important belief systems in my life, I’ve decided that being imperfect is better than abandoning my morals altogether.

Everything about Phoebe's new album rollout speaks to the way things used to be, finds @marianneeloise.bsky.social thefortyfive.com/opinion/phoe...

Phoebe Bridgers is making music slow down again
Her 'Lost Weekend' rollout rejects the relentless pace of modern music – and it's making the whole experience feel special again.

At a time when governments are willfully failing to preserve all their records, librarians and activists are using archival work to do more than document history. Guerrilla archives—whether digital or analog—are generally nonpartisan acts of preservation to serve the public good.
