Please read this entire excellent piece by Caroline, which points out that a judge ordered the Feds (again) to stop doing **this exact kind of thing** and they are still continuing to do it all over Chicago

Headline from The Conversation: More people are considering Al lovers, and we shouldn't judge
I actually can and will judge people who are using environmentally devastating technology built on mass theft to create a fictional partner who does nothing but tell how great they are.
My face when I heard that Liberty University offered full ride scholarships to underage teen moms for *decades* contingent on them being shipped off to a maternity home and giving their newborns up to University-approved couples who happened to be big alumni donors:

Just a reminder that generative AI is theft of labor and intellectual property, uses vast amounts of energy/ water, provides at best mediocre results (if not outright lies or misinformation), actually affects your ability to think over time (mind duh), and is in general a really fucking bad idea.

Hey folks so we're not doing "if you personally have not made a loud public statement about Bad Thing You're Not Accountable For then it's obvious you don't think it's bad," right? Right. Glad we had this talk.
Welcome to our Winter 2024 issue! This marks the 9-year anniversary of Whale Road Review, and publishing the fantastic work in this issue on a Friday the 13th feels like a scarily good way to celebrate!

“Scrape out the shadows and rush
before cold creek water comes up to level
your work, your hunt for jewels unprecious. . . .”
Evergreen has poetry for you!: “Digging Quartz” and two more poems by @hayleym29.bsky.social. Art by Gelah Penn. evergreenreview.com/read/digging...
Very excited to share the first of three poems of mine up in @evergreenreview.bsky.social today! Check the rest out here: evergreenreview.com/read/digging...
“How can you make jokes at a time like this” why do you think jokes were invented?
This is a book cover. The background is an abstract watercolor painting, divided into upper and lower halves by a horizon line. Above the line is a kind of sky, composed of blue and green washes; to the right, sitting on the line, a chartreuse figure overlaps a brown, humped figure. Below the line is the text: Turned Earth, poems, Brad Richard.
Turned Earth, my fifth collection of poems, is available for pre-order from LSU Press. The official release date is 2/7/25, and I hope you will consider giving the book a pre-release boost by ordering a copy. I would also be thrilled to visit classes and give readings!
