Some good news.

The HWA has apologized for the AI article and specifically apologized for the inclusion of Indigenous water rights struggles in the AI column, and removed the newsletter writer from their board position. I’m deeply appreciative of the apology and of all who expressed solidarity in my post about it.

Haw haw, Eli you goof.

Okay. That's enough terrible news.

“Generative A.I. was not used to create or research any part of this magazine, that shit is for pathetic losers, smooth-brained dipshits, thieves and fascists.”

Blocking every single movie quote account. None shall be suffered to live.

The drive for AI, the desire for humanoid labor & by extension the demand for sexbots lays bare the modern status obsessed capitalist desire for what they can convince themselves is an ethical form of exploitation. It’s proven by the quest to simulate intelligence. The stimulus of abuse is crucial.

Hey @horrorwritersassoc.bsky.social, membership and potential membership is waiting for some kind of response in the disaster of an op-ed in the latest newsletter. Because if this view and its tone is tolerated in the organization, you can have my resignation from it.

May as well have said that SpaceX has discovered zero point energy. It's all fiction. Also telling that this hits right after their public blunder.

Ah, yes. NFL preseason, where anything is possible. Where fans can dream any dream.

So, Brooklyn Vegan and all those other outlets are gonna go AI goo content?

Turn the HWA Discord server back on, you cowards.

Stripping the wiring.

Saw a comic preview with a line of dialogue that dismissed every doubt I ever had about anything I've ever written. Whooooof.

Well, mostly that pro-AI op-ed in the HWA newsletter was incoherent. So it's got that going for it.

Weird that I'm an HWA member and have yet to see the actual newsletter article, much less copy of the newsletter that is causing the stir. Haven't found the forums off the main page and the discord is down. I do wonder sometimes.

I do love a spoiler who can't possibly win, nor would they have ever won at any time in the campaign, staying in the campaign to obviate massive spending advantages.

Abdul El-Sayed wins the Michigan Democratic Senate primary!!! More than 1.2 million ballots cast. Over $60 million in outside spending alone. The most expensive Democratic Senate primary in American history. On to Mike Rogers in November. LFG.

Tough to find an author's association that doesn't suck shit, huh?

Wow but psychopathy is hard to write effectively, huh?

the Hugo voting deadline is soon! it would mean a great deal if you'd vote for me in the Astounding Award category. anyone can vote—just register here (there is a fee, but then you get to participate in making a lot of creators very happy) and submit your ballot by noon PDT on 8/8

The short and middle run would suck, but maybe the meteor needs to hit to make things grow again. Like Godzilla.

I wish is calling RFK Jr a liar here mattered. I really do. He cannot beads to feel shame, as he's a psychopath. I don't have much hope of elected officials doing it either. I wish I did. They made their choice.

don’t give a Fuck about tech innovations. make birria tacos bigger

Weird that I'm feeling sad about a monstrous company getting acquired so it can get run into the ground and sold for scraps when the nature of its holden egg laying goes completely missed.

President Trump is banning students majoring in degrees that don’t make enough money from taking out college loans. Degrees for social work, art, religious studies, teaching aides, and music will be hit the hardest. trib.al/aaAEu6v

Oh, right. It's the fourth. Are we continuing with the charade of McConnell's fitness to serve in the Senate or do we have to wait until the fifth for the seat to be kept in stasis until the election?
