If you want a perfect example of the aging up of YA fiction to appeal to adult readers at the exclusion of teen readers, it's getting rid of any references to the specific ages of the teen characters in the Six of Crows duology. www.tumblr.com/vilecemetery...

Is "exhausted" just the adult standard?

Lizzie @lizziethat.bsky.social · Sep 23

But mostly paranoia? I've taken your advice and now do it all the time.

I think if anything I would like to start with a world map. Like, some geography lessons. We don't talk about countries we cannot locate on a map.

TCA condemns ABC and Disney’s capitulation to the government’s demands of censorship.

Television Critics Association

The Television Critics Association (TCA) condemns ABC's indefinite suspension of Jimmy Kimmel Live!, which is the latest in a series of actions aimed at silencing critics of the Trump administration.

The Walt Disney Company's capitulation to the demands of the FCC chair this week represents a wanton disregard of the First Amendment's guarantee to a right for people and the press to speak without government retribution.
TCA stands with the Writers Guild of America, which said in a statement it is "united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent," and SAG-AFTRA, which said this "is the type of suppression and retaliation that endangers everyone's freedoms."

The government attempting to punish creatives, writers, and/or journalists for speech that officials do not like is authoritarianism. Corporations that profit from the words of television stars, writers, and journalists must defend their employees from governmental pressure, which is different from setting their own creative and editorial standards.

Freelance illustration gigs drying up. Ad agencies using Midjourney instead of hiring human artists. Costume design turned over to AI wholesale. Good work vanishing.

These are the stories of working visual artists, who describe losing jobs, wages, and hope as their clients and bosses embrace AI.

Google Calendar reminding you of an upcoming flight 10 minutes before it takes off when you're already on your seat is... Not helpful.

Really interesting piece by @ceilidhann.bsky.social. www.avclub.com/riefenstahl-...

Bolstering Riefenstahl as a “great female director” benefits the Nazis far more than it benefits cinema. It’s not unlike the ways that The Birth Of A Nation is heralded as technically groundbreaking at the expense of noting how it revived the KKK. The more that supposedly artful displays of racism and bigotry are spun as cultural landmarks, the easier we make it for those insidious agendas to go unchallenged.

Is there any platform that's not Nazi backed or at least Nazi adjacent these days? 😭

A quick question for anybody who wants to answer, just because I'm trying to get my creative juices flowing...

What's your favorite movie or movies that was a box office flop? I'm not talking about like "Man of Steel made $700 million rather than $1 billion," I'm talking about movies that bombed.

Passwords that reset every 90 days are truly my villain origin story.

I just made one of those recipes that start with "blend cottage cheese" and I think I've unlocked adulthood.

Lizzie @lizziethat.bsky.social · Jul 28

Hey I like that too!

Lizzie @lizziethat.bsky.social · Jul 28

I have ten books on my bookshelf! Can you send me 3 more hours a day?

Lizzie @lizziethat.bsky.social · Jul 28

I've started making a point to read (actual books!) before bed and woah, why did I ever stop?
