Selling ARCs hurts everyone involved in making the book happen--AND it's a dick move. Please don't be an asshole about us trying to give you fun, free, cool shit.

Don't buy or sell advance reader copies.

WHERE UNIVERSITY IS FREE AND ANYONE CAN GO

Op's quotes are full of "we didn't decide slavery was unethical, we decided enslaving HUMANS was unethical, so..."

I cannot express the vehemence of my "go to hell" strongly enough in the microblogging medium.

It's a sign of the times that AI companies are deciding whether or not to allow the military to engage in mass surveillance of US citizens and this is treated as a legitimate debate of two reasonable positions.

This entire thread is worth your while.

Honestly I'm sure it is to get out in front of would-be and longtime participants like myself who have spoken up against AI slop in the past on their server, because some of us have a pretty good eye for slop and they don't want the heat i would have brought if they lied

This is proper and correct.

Shitting on artists in another field is utter trash garbage behavior and people engaging in it deserve every scrap of opprobrium they receive.

Don't buy any books from the 2026 formerly-inkfort-press Derby, then! They announced they're rolling out slop covers this year.

yes this is a subtweet

You bet I am disrespectful of anyone who would claim using AI Slop as cover art is even kind of acceptable, but especially of the claim that it's in some way essential or even a net good for authors!

I am so much more than merely disrespectful of that sanctimonious and self serving horseshit!

A lot of great collections. A.C. Wise. Premee Mohamed. Cassandra Khaw. Seán Padraic Birnie. Simon Strantzas. Michael Kelly. Priya Sharma. Steve Toase. Tobi Ogundiran. If you read all of them something unlocks in your brain, I promise.

Damn me, but all things are queer

Our panel Prose, Poetry, and Play: Game Design as a Literary Practice at #AWP26 was amazing yesterday, with brilliant insights from @natmesnard.bsky.social @sharangbiswas.bsky.social @brigittewinter.bsky.social @nirele.bsky.social @davering.bsky.social! If you attended, let us know your takeaways ✨

at this point i feel like 80% of americans are aware of this and the nonsense unfolding is partly because we reached a point where there's no plausible "debate" anymore, and fossil fuel companies etc. don't want to die out

So this post broke containment and lost a little of the context when it did but Bikini Kill are the ones donating to TCP, not Bandcamp. We generally choose a different org or mutual aid fund to support on Bandcamp Fridays and this is what we chose this month.

If anyone is up for boosting, Bandcamp is holding a fundraiser for the Trans Continental Pipeline to help trans people escape from Kansas!

I made this to express my feelings

I am old enough to remember how under Bush, “elite” was “anyone who lived in a coastal state and had ever ordered anything at Starbucks” and “the working class” was hereditary landowners in Montana whose vote counts for 4x a California voter’s.

“Enshitification” did not emerge because customer satisfaction is soaring. It’s fucking Ferngully out here and we’re little jungle critters chased into smaller and smaller pens of detached territory by malevolent bulldozers of consumption.

I’m glad someone said this to his face and more of these CEOs need to hear it: If the conversation around tech seems negative now it’s because you, your products, and what they’re doing to our society fucking sucks. You stopped making optimistic technology and unleashed MechaHitler the job killer.

The ideological incoherence here is really quite staggering.

People Are Calling Meta Ray-Bans "Pervert Glasses" On Bluesky, users quickly embraced the term "pervert glasses" to refer to Meta's Ray Ban smart glasses, following a shocking investigation.

Make it stick.

Ah didn't see the other thread. Good hunting!

The single most important thing a man can do to be an ally is give his woman friends permission to give dudes at the bar his number so when they call he can angrily say that's not funny because she died 15 years ago that very night

Happy Friday! 👻

US Postal Service expects to run out of cash in a year without help from Congress, postmaster says The U.S. Postal Service will run out of cash within a year unless Congress lifts a decades-old cap and allows the agency to borrow more money.

I can't help but to feel they sabotaged the USPS on purpose
