1) This is one of the reasons I do not trust any 'pay to be a member so you can appear legit' organisation 2) Sèphera Girón apparently enjoying her 15 minutes of infamy, I imagine she'll probably profit from this more than it will damage her, because that's how things operate in the writing world
Holly Lyn Walrath@hollylynwalrath.bsky.social · 22h agoThere is a lengthy pro-AI screed in the latest HWA newsletter and it is . . . a mood.
I don’t think I shared this here. It’s a cloisonné piece I made over the course of a 5 day workshop.
This wee fella took a solid 3 years, but I'm so happy with him :) Seaglass kiwi made from kiwi seaglass, with pounamu for the beak and paua for the eyes

As if the S1 finale of One Piece just made me cry ffs. I really was not expecting to love this show. It is not at all what I was expecting.
Wicker looks promising. From the trailer, I am highly invested in Peter Dinklage's character.

Facing the reality that this might be it and I might be sick forever now. Really disheartening specialist appointment. Looks like I'm gonna need another procedure that'll cost thousands (or suffer til next year to try and get it on the NHS). Trying not to completely spiral.
We all wish we were more successful Usually, financially But if your art has ever touched ONE person, you are a success at it Don't confuse the capitalist propaganda of this world with the real reward You were/are here, and you Created surrounded by a world that loves Destruction
If you make something— ANYTHING— you are NOT a failed artist. Conjuring something out of various, myriad ingredients is a sort of alchemy & a powerful magic whether it's a song, a drawing, a meal, etc. Not everyone can do it. Sharing it w the world is an act of defiance & bravery Always, be proud

Thread. All of this is a billion times better and more valuable and worthy than even the most convincing AI impersonation of creation.
Ryan Vance@ryanvance.bsky.social · last wk.Look if I’m 88 years old and need significant end of life support and I’m still beasting out durational art using the most accessible tools I can still utilise capturing the last year of my life and then I DIE and one of you fuckers slags off my art then I WILL be haunting you forever.
Struggling with a disability? Struggling to pay for heating or food? Don't worry, Labour will make the "difficult choices" by taking money from you and giving it to the billionaires... Especially if they're nazis. Labour, definitely not a far-right party. www.opendemocracy.net/exclusive-ho...
Exclusive: How Palantir harvested millions in UK tax breaks
In 2024, Palantir’s effective tax rate was just 8%, far less than the usual 25%, despite £25.3m of pre-tax profits

Zack Polanski@zackpolanski.bsky.social · last wk.One thing you can absolutely guarantee in life. When Labour ministers talk about difficult choices, it's never the rich and powerful that will be taking a hit.
It's weird observing people's careers, like successful creatives, how stuff happens then leads to more stuff and more opportunities for stuff that the person is perhaps not even immediately qualified for but it all just kinda spiderwebs and idek how that happens. I am not good at humaning?
I want companies that have profited from contracts with ICE to go out of business. I want companies that have gone all in on AI to go out of business. I want companies that cause nationwide diarrhea outbreaks to go out of business. I want companies that give money to fascists to go out of business.
LISTEN UP, GAYS! ARMOR OF ANNWN IS OUT ON FRIDAY! This book. This fuckin' book. IT IS COMING! AMA!
