"bearing witness to events" literally just means recording what is happening so it cannot be elided or erased in the future, it does not mean you are required to watch execution videos as some duty, stop letting people who don't understand words tell you what to do

There's plenty of critiques to make of ahimsa, but "how'd it work out for Gandhi/King/Mandela" gotta be what you get when you grow the worst possible one in a lab

The idea that the British Raj respected the rule of law is legitimately one of the funniest things I've ever read in my entire life
Non violence works when the aggressor respects the rule of law. America's laws seem to disappear when one party is power

You aren't going to fail if you don't make a NYT bestselling novel before you're 30. No, listen to me, look in my eyes: not publishing/not having a smash hit in your 20s is normal. You aren't dead if you don't. Fucking relax

Transphobia is a cancer of the heart and mind.

It is a useless fear, based on ignorance and cruelty.

Trans people are not responsible for a single one of the problems we face.

Do the world a favor and grow the fuck up.

The Nobel Peace Prize becoming so prestigious that wars are fought over a head of state coveting it is some real monkey paw stuff for Alfred Nobel.

Sometimes you send something you found online to a friend because you want to brighten their day, and sometimes you send something you found online to a friend with the precise attitude and bearing of a cat very carefully lining up their paw with the back of another cat's head.

If you're a writer, wondering why you should bother writing with the world on fire. It feels like it's not important, I need you to understand that it is.

Even if it is just because it keeps you moving forward? Even if it only brings YOU joy, that gives you energy to fight & survive.

My mom still regrets letting me read Jacqueline Wilson so young but you could argue it played a huge role in preventing me from imbibing a lot of prejudices against single and teen moms later on
Plus, reading about other girls who were “different” (aka undiagnosed neurodivergent) didn’t hurt
I think so many of people’s lack of media literacy and unwillingness to consider moral complexities that aren’t strict black/white dichotomies comes from parents not teaching kids how to read as God intended: with books kids are far too young to read kept within in easy reach of an 8 year old.

Biggest writing challenge I've had to overcome last few years is regaining confidence in myself: confidence that I can fix shitty series of first attempts. I started last book over like 50 times. This one,I'm keeping scene bones I know are good and going over it again, and again, til it gets clearer

Not. Even. Once. NOT EVER. What… I should *pay them for using what they already stole from me*? And *thousands* of my friends and colleagues? HARD PASS. *Some* things are worth starving for. 😡

The increasingly common habit of screenshotting the AI summary of a Google search and presenting it as evidence must be nipped in the bud immediately. That is nothing. That is not anything, it is not a thing.

If you're a writer your job is to do cartwheels wearing a silly hat with bells on for pennies while secretly believing you are harnessing the cosmic force that holds reality together. You can't actually do one or the other. It has to be both.

If you accuse people of AI use for using em dashes, then you really need to go read some books because AI only uses em dashes BECAUSE AUTHORS USE THEM
Genuine question for those who know...

Does anyone else get weirded out when they see people accuse others of using generative AI for writing because the author uses Em dashes? As in (—).
