Counterpoint: There is has never been a more urgent time to write a book. Technofascism is, among other things, an attempt to capture and enclose literature and literacy. Print is a rent strike.
is there anything more pointless right now that writing a book? feels that way to me
Oh, god no. It's squandering two actresses who could be having lesbian sex in a much better show.
Picture literally every generic prestige TV drama from the last five years. It's that, but also Malin Akerman and Brittany Snow have lesbian sex.
I have a vision for a Final Fantasy XVI sequel, and now it's everyone's problem. Much like Jill Warrick having a gun.

Take away my photoshop, take away my tablets, I can still draw. Take away your plagiarism machine and what are you gonna do? Shout prompts at me?

While it's nice to see more noise about how terrible JKR is, as a trans woman I would appreciate it if there was less focus on "here's what you can read instead" and more "here's how you can materially help trans people".

We're the victims here, please stop centring the purity of your bookshelves.
This might be one of the best videos you've made. Thank you for such a thoughtful, solidly researched analysis of such a big problem. Hopefully all the positive attention it's getting has an impact.
When does the Oath Of The DILF paladin drop, Carr.
"Fellas is it gay to have sex with a woman" is such a wild plank upon which to build their platform.
A fantastic read! Thanks for such a clear analysis of the mess. (And solidifying my resolve to not bother with this movie, haha)

Never shut up about tech that enables theft on both ends and uses more energy and water than a small country. Never.
can people stop telling me to let ai in the arts go??? if we shut up now, there's no controlling it, no regulating it, artists and authors will keep having all their works cannibalised and reshaped for profit they don't see.

so, no. i won't shut up.

fuck ai.
