🧵Spotted at an Indie Bookshop talk in Aotearoa New Zealand: An entire book club (20s-30s?) files into the front row in an independent small city book shop. Books piled on tables and shelves everywhere. They're here on a mission. The author is a friend and they WILL fiercely support her. (1)

I work at a public library. People who want to use AI seem to have no trouble doing so. People who don't want to use AI have a harder time. I crowdsourced and then finalized this document "How to disable or avoid intrusive AI" and then gave it a short URL: notoai.org Please pass along if it's useful

A newbie interpreter asked me for advice, and I figured they probably aren't the only ones new to the job. So here's some advice for all of you from someone who's been doing this for more years than I care to say. The first and most important thing—prepare and prepare and prepare some more.

This is big news. Okamoto spent the last 40 years in exile in Lebanon - the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine would occasionally throw events honoring him, posting pictures of him on Facebook. I wonder if we'll ever learn the fates of the other JRA members on the lam - Bando, Daidoji...
