Excellent comic about AI avatars (profiles) on Facebook, designed to appeal to particular customers but which are exceedingly problematic. Cheers to @whittaylor.bsky.social. Read: www.patreon.com/CrucialComix...

out it goes: my long post about Rachel Hope Cleves's claim that Tillie Walden plagiarised her book. It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here. Cleves's claim does not hold up. buttondown.com/thene/archiv...

stick a pin in this metaphor

…because these covers are a microcosm of the entire conflict; Walden's book is mostly built on writing and other objects left by Sylvia Drake, Charity Bryant, and others. Her work includes many elements from these records that Cleves does not refer to in her book, and many of her interpretations of those records are different from Cleves's interpretations, often intentionally so. In addition to her historical basis, Walden's book includes fictional dialogue and story elements that are original to her work, some of which are inspired by Walden's own life.

I can't think of anything more monumentally sad than holding your wedding as a ticketed event at a major venue. What even are you, at that point? A commercial for yourself?

I don’t want to go back and forth on this, respectfully. I’m happy to have more nuanced conversations about things like this in person, but I don’t see any good coming out of being more reductive than I need to be online.

This seems like a lot of speculation on your part? Are you aware that the pub reached out to her beforehand and sent an advance copy? Have you read the GN yet? I see no problem with saying I wish it had been dealt with beforehand. I’m sure this is painful for all parties.

Yup This seems to be the kind of case they’ve tied their whole existence to. They’ve already been clear on what legal matters they won’t help with, which we know why now with their history but this is one of the most egregious cases in comics history and they’re on X pushing their humble bundle deal

one interesting thing so far about loudly hating AI is the way AI lovers are like "wow so you're just totally closed off to hearing another perspective??" as if their perspective hasn't been relentlessly pushed down our throats with no space to push back (particularly in professional settings)

This was a hard story to report. Newborns who don’t get a vitamin K shot are 81 times more likely to develop a condition where they bleed uncontrollably. But more and more families are declining the shot. And babies are dying. www.propublica.org/article/more...
