I'm tempted to post the first chapter of In A Mirror, Darkly with a note telling people that the next chapters will be a little while (2 is done, 3 is being written, I want a 4 chapter buffer in total). What do you guys reckon? Yay or nay?

Seems reception for Mamoru Hosoda's newest film, Scarlet, is a bit more lukewarm than his previous films.

In the US Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? 2nd edition video game from Eidos & Jellyvision, entering your name as "Regis", "Millionaire", or one of the actual $10^6 winners on the show would result in the game changing your name to "Faker" or "Cheater". So I could not play the game as myself.

Here's the cover for my next big fic, In A Mirror, Darkly. No ETA yet, first two chapters are done, looking to give myself a buffer of 4 chapters before I begin posting (as I did with my previous fic)

The existence of trans and nonbinary people is something that benefits even cis people. There is no universal experience of being female or being male. No longer gatekeeping who gets to be what frees us all.

the only good thing about genAI is that it got me to really love seeing bad art, because I know a person put in time and effort, made themselves vulnerable by showing it to others, and is trying to improve. I value that more than anything now

I stand by what I said in it: James Mulligan used AI prompts to create this artwork. This was NOT a witch hunt; in fact, I spent most of this year believing it was real. But facts are facts, and the truth needs to be shared.

I was considering getting Affinity Designer prior to hearing about this. Worth it or no? Are we expecting a rugpull at some point?
