FFS. I get that people mistakes but this is making space for the rake, very carefully laying it down and counting steps backwards to make sure you step on the right spot.
Delilah S. Dawson@delilahsdawson.bsky.social · 18h agoThis is just embarrassing. HWA, what are we doing??
Take it easy, man! (Shouldn't have had that last beer, I fell in the pool.)
I have read it! Trust this one word review that rhymes with grate!
Time to buy a new book. If you don't know what to buy, try something that rhymes with THEM ANY, maybe by an author whose last name sort of looks like "novel".

Gretchen Felker-Martin PRE ORDER CHIMERA 2.16.27 🍉@scumbelievable.bsky.social · 2d ago"I'm entitled to whatever I want whenever I want it for any reason and I don't care what satisfying these urges does to me or the world" well okay dude, seems like there's something deeper going on here, but that's just my take
1. Newer writers, just don't fucking use "AI" for anything, ever 2. How odd that being an established writer with a firm "no 'AI'" stance and ample pre-"AI" IP will become a definite competitive advantage over "new, hot, and possibly copyright compromised" deadline.com/2026/07/ai-q...

That screeching sound you heard from international publishers and film rights buyers was an abrupt application of the brakes after a fevered pursuit of the unpublished debut novel.

Murshed Zaheed@murshedz.bsky.social · 7d ago“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

Manisha Krishnan@manishakrishnan.bsky.social · last wk.Authors and journalists are doing more first-person (hello 2010s blogging) and embracing "mistakes" in writing to prove they're not chatbots. There's even an “anti-Grammarly" app that leaves in typos and signs off "sent from my iPhone" to create more authenticity: www.wired.com/story/more-t...

This thing is so poorly conceived, it hurts. Basically starts with the premise "you need AI everywhere in your organization" and asks questions to see how ready you are to do that. It's a weird one to fill out.
Sonja Boon@storiedselves.bsky.social · 2w agoCanadian arts and culture folks: the federal government has launched a (methodologically flawed) survey on "the Cultural Sector's readiness for Artificial Intelligence".

I just want to point out that all the videos of Timothy the short-spined raccoon are daytime shots. I have a feeling Jimothy in a dark alley is a whole other story.
