Night. The House of Chimes - a tower which you might immediately think of as Big Ben - is adrift in the River Thames. It still seems to be keeping time. In the background, a large, alien building looms over the city of London.

Horror and romance are my favorite genres and they both suffer from this problem. "This is good, for..." or "This transcends/elevates the genre" isn't a compliment.

One of the reasons I love genre storytelling like horror and romance is because to me there is more freedom to explore emotion, so yeah, snobbery around genre fiction is just that.

What the fuck, Joyce. I don’t even read romance novels but this kind of thinking pisses me the fuck off. It further pushes that mentality that some books as “lesser” which is bullshit! All books count!

Joyce Carol Oates
This is why Al-generated romance novels make perfect sense. Formulaic fiction doesn't need to be written by hand, so to speak; what difference does it make if a machine "writes" it? There are machine-made clothes & there are custom-made clothes. They appeal to different consumers.

Seeing people post about how unfair the “mob justice” against the Cornell rapists is doesn’t really move me when there is no justice for survivors. The system doesn’t work; it enacts further punishment on the victims. Society is even crueler. So spare me the “mob justice” rhetoric about the accused

A truly heinous man has doxxed the Cornell victim on X and the comments are predictably vile. Based on countless interviews I’ve done with survivors, the trauma they are subjected to for coming forward is oftentimes even worse than the initial trauma they experienced. There is no real justice system

I do hope that Hollywood realizes that the popularity of Heated Rivalry was not because of the hockey but because of the romance and they can make wildly successful romance stories that aren’t specifically tied to hockey cause right now it feels like they’re missing the point LOL

A point I haven't seen mentioned much in the Cornell case is how the attack was also most likely filmed and distributed. But y'know I'm sure law enforcement got warrants for those sickos' phones and checked for that, right?

- Social media brain rot where we've failed to see that we are human beings connected to other unique human beings and therefore, just because something doesn't reflect my experience, it doesn't mean it's wrong or "bad" or something you can't still read/watch/play, etc.

Greatest trick AI leaders have pulled is convincing many people—especially influential people in govt, media, and business—that their software is intelligent, independent, yet never culpable. Humans build it, humans deploy it, but no one bears responsibility for the things that happen when they do.
