“When Liu, 20, decided to return to skating, she did so with conditions. She’d wear what she wants. Dance to the music she wants. Eat what she wants. Take breaks when she wants…. [Skating] would be the vehicle through which she displayed the real Alysa.” she did it! her! way!!

Alysa Liu’s Olympic run came with terms. Her choreographer helps her express them

Liu is the best U.S. hope for an Olympic medal in women's figure skating, which would be the country's first in the competition since 2006.

There is nothing that’s going to be more annoying to me, then people trying to explain (incorrectly) to me about the history of back flips in figure skating

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books. She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it. It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

Okay troublemakers, punks, antifa supervillains, and anyone who just enjoys being a petty little shitbird while they fuck up the algorithm of a massive media corp. Here's your assignment for the weekend. Get on it and spread the word.

Get in. We're messing up Melania's Amazon search results.
This weekend, Amazon is premiering it's $40 million Melania Trump documentary. It already seems to be a flop.
But we're going to take it one step further by messing up Melania's Amazon search results. Specifically, we're going to amplify the paranormal erotic thriller, Melania: Devourer of Men so it ranks higher than her movie.
The book is perfect: it's absurd, the cover is ridiculous, and it's free, so we're not giving Amazon any money.
We need people to:
1. "buy" the book (it's free)
2. Share this post and get other people to buy the book.
That's it. Then we can celebrate as an erotic novel about a bat monster Melania Trump becomes a higher and higher search result on Amazon.

Exactly. No one told me I was going to lose my job and be left behind if I didn't get a smartphone. I got a smartphone because it looked like it did a lot of useful things (and it does). If the tech is good, you don't need to threaten people to get them to use it.

The most annoying trend in Photography is clients asking for RAW files. When you tell them that there is a difference between RAWs and unedited photo files they tell you 'they know, but they want the RAWs". So you give them the RAWs and then they complain that they can't open them

A+, teachers!

some right wing asshole on X: MINNEAPOLIS SIGNAL INFILTRATED

The protestors use a "mutual aid" system. I tried to join the mutual aid that for Bloomington.
An admin told me that it was a vetted chat for teachers and that l'd need to describe my relationship to a school. And give my real name.
I couldn't do that so l never made it in.
Why are there teachers aiding in this effort?!?!

TTRPG friends, Matt, our friend and community member @nurdrocks.bsky.social has been taken by ICE while his back was turned, peacefully protesting. Matt is the founder of Justice Frontline Aid that provides aid & education in the MN community. I've linked the video footage below. Do not stay silent.

Am I the only one who thinks that if you’re hiring staff to run a booth for you at a convention, a perk shouldn’t be ‘you’ll get a hotel room but you’ll have to sleep two to a bed with people you don’t know’

TTRPG AP concept that I ranodmly thought of: A pre recorded TTRPG AP that has a live action film adaptation counterpart (each session gets a live action short film that basiclly condenses the session into a film)

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

As PAXU panel pitches are due soon, I wanted to share that I'd love to be considered for your panels about GMing, worldbuilding, game design, and/or mentoring/teaching. I have a decade+ experience as a novelist, worked in publishing, and do game design (latest: Additional Designer for Daggerheart).

Any chance there's a bunch of people who work in the physical TTRPG AP space who would be interested on being on a panel about TTRPG AP creation (would love to pitch a PAX U panel ft producers, set and sound designers etc from both large and small games)

One thing that doing creative work teaches you is that ideas are worth nothing. Anybody can have an idea. In a writers room you have to come up with a hundred ideas a day, and most of those don’t make the page. It’s the work of making something that gives it value. The patina of humanity.
