amplifying this whole thread and adding my perpetual plea: create/buy/use/share actual ink-on-paper texts. use the public library and build your own to share. keep media out of the cloud. do things by hand, make things with your hands: cooking, sewing, gardening, art. these are soul-healing skills.

Tore through Ruthie Knox + Annie Mare's "Homemaker". I've loved Knox's romances in the past, and the same care and keen observation are present in this mystery. I'm very much looking forward to more in the series - I have the second already on hold at the library. #ThursdayBookChat
Cover for Ruthie Knox + Annie Mare's "Homemaker". Red background, edged in black. A bold graphic of a woman wearing a teal short-sleeved t-shirt, holding a black mug that says "mom boss" in one hand, and in the other holding up a magnifying glass to her eye, which is then indeed magnified. The subtext is written in cursive: A Prairie Nightingale Mystery.

I was looking at the website of a dedicated romance bookstore in Devon and saw they had a section called "Books written with AI that are actually worth reading", and when I tell you I was inhaling deeply as I clicked. Should have known better. Props to Moonlit Chapters in Barnstaple, good work.
post reading: Look, if your using Gen AI to generate content in any form, then you need to rethink whether this community is for you.

I've seen an influx of authors, readers and bookish businesses using Gen AI in some form on their socials (and websites)  and somehow i am flabbergasted every time.

We should all know by now that Gen AI steals from creatives. So using it while claiming to love authors is a choice. Using it as a bookish business when you are making money off of your love of books, is a choice.

And its the wrong bloody choice. And you should see yourself out.

Tried to take a photo at Riot Fest of Iggy Pop and my phone was just, nope, not gonna even try to focus, but I think this got the joy of the night just fine! We focused on Tricky, Santigold, Foxy Shazam, and Iggy, and it was a magical night all around.
Ostensibly a photo of a stage at Riot Fest. But everything was in motion in the dark, so we have blurs of red against a dark foreground and a lighter background, with areas of brighter light here and there.

I can't remember who recommended this but I want to thank them... currently reading "One Hundred Thousand Lives After Death" by Megan Lee Bees. It is sweet and horrific (and do not consider if you don't do well with spiders). #ThursdayBookChat
Cover of "One Hundred Thousand Lives After Death" by Megan Lee Bees. Painting of a female figure sitting in an empty tree, wearing a sweater and a skirt and a green turtleneck. There is a gap between her head and the top of the turtleneck. Behind her are trees with moss on them and what looks like giant spider legs and some smaller webs.
