“AI can make mistakes” might as well be the slogan of our era. Even boosters admit that you need to spin the vibe code slot machine a few times to get a jackpot. An employee with that degree of consistency would be fired. So how do we redirect some of that unlimited grace from machines to humans?

Corporations demand perfection from workers, but AI gets unlimited slack.

LLM users have bottomless patience for inconsistent tools, and no grace left for their colleagues. What if we could flip it around?

SOUTHERN REACH READERS and weirdlings in general, here's a call for lighthouse photo submissions if you want a chance to be in the forthcoming Area X: The Southern Reach Files book. Starts Nov. 1, ends Jan 21. PLEASE read thoroughly. Questions, weirdos? www.jeffvandermeer.com/lighthouseph...

An epic and mind-blowing expansion of the Area X story by way of a hidden metal box full of secret images and documents purporting to be the last report of the Central agent Karen Hargraves. Spanning the 30 years of Southern Reach expeditions, reaching into the past and the future, this full-color book will satisfy Area X completists while adding to the narrative begun with the first four novels, to Michael Sand at Abrams, in an exclusive submission, by Joseph Veltre at Gersh Agency and attorney Alex Kohner (world).

I was thinking about imaginary game Gromdonk and maybe if I were to make something like this then the most gribbly and gromdonkish way to depict the goblins would be to make them out of plasticine and photograph them rather than draw them.

A group of horrible goblins and the word GROMDONK

A common mistake many new writers make is crafting a character and then, without story justification or world building to support it, making them heterosexual. This leaves readers confused & takes them out of the story.

She Smiled
She smiled for the first time

in a secondhand skirt and dollar-store lipstick.

She smiled for the first time,

finally seeing some gleam of herself.

A tiny fire, delicately tended, slowly fed…

time and again so casually snuffed.

But the embers remain, for her,

to breathe into fiery wings:

a phoenix of liberatory joy,

MAY HER SMILE SHAKE THE PILLARS OF THE WORLD!!!

Introduction
Opening verse of Ice Ball Blues:
ILYIP: It's too damn early to be so awake.
SLIALUP: Blushin’ sun wearily kiss cold wet mornin’.
ILYIP: While ice-cattle splash in the pasture bay.
SLIALUP: No time to waste, got no time for snorin’.
ILYIP: And if we don’t move ‘em to sky-port.
BOTH: Then we just don’t get paid!...
- by Mx. Ilyip x Slialup, Two headed Ogre and Country/Western Troubadours

On a frozen planet orbiting a dim red star, untold folx have lost their lives across countless ice-cattle drives. Most of that world is buried beneath solid sheets of overlapping glaciers. Only the tropics retain liquid water. In shallow, violet-stained equatorial bays lumbering ice-cows dive and graze on submerged periwinkle-blue fields.
From gray gravel beaches and rusting speedboats, heavily bundled cowhands keep an exhausted watch. Frost forms on fleece collars. Sea-spray freezes into thick layers of rime on the derelict bones of abandoned submersibles. There’s little sound but...
