New: As gay bars across the country say that Meta is flagging and deactivating their accounts without warning, I spoke to an Austin queer bar that says Meta nearly destroyed their ability to advertise events: www.chron.com/culture/arti...

How Meta's new content moderation upended a Texas gay bar

At least one LGBTQ establishment in Texas says the social media giant has incorrectly disabled its social media account, potentially hurting business.

Started playing Superliminal and it started out kind of creepy but I hit level four and I uh--

A screenshot from the video game Superliminal of a darkened room with blood spatters on the ground. It's a first-person POV.

A sign in the video game Superliminal. It reads:

Monday: Murder
Tuesday: Murder
Wednesday: Murder
Friday: Murder
Saturday: MURDER

Regular reminder that I have a new YA rom com coming out next year and you should preorder it and add it to goodreads / storygraph <3 www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/807984...

A graphic for the title of my new book HE'S JUST SOME GUY, out March 2027. There are a list of tropes on either side of the title

Queer Love Triangle
Rock Stars
Fake Dating
Meddling Aunties
Banter
Oh No, He's Hot!
Oh No, SHE's Hot!
creating

The first page of my book HE'S JUST SOME GUY.

Chapter 1

THIS COULDN’T BE happening.

This absolutely could not be happening. Things like this did not
happen in real life.

But if that were true, then how could Kabir Mehra—

• lead singer of the band Rangeela
• traveling musician
• and, most crucially, the stranger on the internet I had pretended
was my long-distance boyfriend to get my nosy masi
and her gaggle of an auntiellery off my back

—how could that Kabir Mehra be standing directly in front of
me at Pinky and David’s wedding reception.

“Hey,” he said, throwing an arm around me and pulling me in
for a hug. His voice went low as he whispered into my ear, “I hear
you’re my girlfriend.”

Prince- and that's the most difficult part of the journey

panel 5
Princess- apart from the fire breath
Prince- The what?

Panel 6
Princess breathes fire, incinerating prince

This was wild to see. My first time writing for the screen. My thanks to Zoe Kazan for inviting me on this journey back in 2023, and my agent Jason Richman and everyone at @unitedtalentagency.bsky.social for their work on my behalf.

“Written for Television by ZOE KAZAN & ALEXANDER CHEE” in white letters against the black tv screen.

A tv still of Mike Faist, Christopher Abbott and Florence Pugh. White text in a San serif font reads “This East of Eden, adapted primarily by Zoe Kazan-Alexander Chee co-wrote a key midseason episode-with Garth Davis directing, is rich, morally complex and packed with memorable performances."

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."

True not just in publishing/writing. Look at how this new Meta Muse basically jumps into the user's shit, mixes it around, gets it everywhere. Shares their address. Lies to their contacts. Sells their stuff at a low price. Do not let the vampire in. Hang garlic. Sharpen stakes.
