Sharing this from 2 months ago, because apparently I need to 🙄 I include grammar etc in this too.
V 🏴☠🩵💜 excited for Wee Con '26 🎉@notstraycollie.bsky.social · 3mo agoHey, fic writers! I don't care if you have typos or put the wrong word sometimes! I love that you share your stories with us and put your hearts into what you do. Thank you, thank you, thank you 💖 Please keep writing, imperfections and all 🥰
Hey. Hi. Listen up. AI is a plague on creative spaces. Having "a feeling" someone might be using AI is reason enough to not engage with their work, but it is NOT a good enough reason for you to publicly drag their reputation. "But it looks like—" "But it reads like—" No. GC speculation is not PROOF.
Fantastic episode. The nuance window especially might resonate with a few folks. He's very Stede Bonnet (ofmd version) coded. The musical 'How to win against history' is excellent too 💖
Greg Jenner (Historian)@gregjenner.bsky.social · last wk.🚨 NEW EPISODE! 🚨 This week on You’re Dead To Me, I’m joined by comedian Morgan Rees and historian Prof Viv Gardner to explore the life of queer icon Henry Cyril Paget (the ‘Dancing Marquess’ of Anglesey) who spent his entire fortune on clothes, parties, theatre, and fun Listen/watch on BBC

Time is the most valuable thing ANY of us have - time spent creating is time borrowed from chores, work, rest. Time your reader spends reading your work? Same. When you present AI work as creative work you are STEALING people’s valuable fucking time. Don’t do it, but if u must? LABEL it FFS. time:
if anyone needs 300 photos of a spanish galeon for fic writing purposes I got u
Started putting together Wee Con presentation, and I think everyone needs to know that there are slides provisionally titled 'queer gulls' AND 'queer albatrosses'.

OK, I know I'm not original in saying this, but go and read this. It is an absolute masterpiece. Seriously. I have just finished and am still reeling (massively positive) (though I may have a slight tension headache coming!!). We are so stupidly lucky in this fandom.
Fran(kie) | Wee Con ‘26!@frankieofmd.bsky.social · 3w agoAn idea gripped me and wouldn’t stop until i wrote it. Title: Still With Me Summary: A hijacking leaves Stede alone in the cockpit of a 737, with both pilots dead and his family trapped outside. Air traffic controller Ed has to talk him through landing it. archiveofourown.org/works/900070...
Question for the not Brits - does the album cover meme mean anything to you? Did you have your own versions? Were the 'Now' albums a thing for you? Or are you just running with it? (Which is brilliant 😂)
A man (20s?) has just ordered a take-away coffee. There's a print on his hoodie that says: "You are more loved than you will ever know." Ambling along in the sun. Eating a pie with all signs of enjoyment, tomato sauce on his fingers. (2)
