A piece of advice for new writers: read the magazines you're submitting stories to. Not only will it help you understand their tastes, but you'll probably find some cool writers who will broaden your horizons.

The TOS being so strict that they control you offsite is the problem; sites like Patreon and Kofi have offsite clauses too. The social criminalization of the suggestion that somewhere you might be doing nsfw is a problem. It's branding a person as obscene and we need consumers to stand up for us

Today is the birthday of cartoonist Jackie Ormes (Aug. 1, 1911-Dec. 26, 1985), the first Black woman to create a newspaper comic strip that was read nationally in the US. She created Torchy Brown in Dixie to Harlem, Torchy in Heartbeats & Patty-Jo ‘n’ Ginger. Patty Jo became a toy doll.

This is how you make a post

Couldn’t happen to a nastier guy.

Great flick. It and STARMAN (1984) are both, at their cores, movies about the radical shift from the Carter era's starry optimism to Reagan's xenophobic dystopia

This is what life is like for many of us with ADHD. And when you get Long Covid on top of undiagnosed ADHD (as I did a few years back) the end result is nightmarish. But I dug my way out of it. Might write a short book about how I did it one day.

Buried under the party numbers📊📈📉: 61% disapprove of the government. 53% say the country is going the wrong way, against 28% who say it is going right. Cost of living 49%, housing 44%. The appetite for something else is not in doubt. (1/3)

I think it's quite alarming that this technology is not only unregulated but also being forced on all of us, irrespective of the other problems with it. It can very obviously damage people.

Spider-Man feeding the spiders in the park.

Seems like a sound guy in a market-adjacent public-service job. It would have been better to keep the cap on the salaries of bank senior managers than to facilitate – yet again – the recruitment of the sort of go-boys who have repeatedly left the taxpayer to pick up billions of Euros in debt.

I would very much like to see Ahmed on a Marvel book.

So I woke up this morning to find out that Ozzy Osbourne’s son made a video falsely accusing me of using AI to write a Rolling Stone article about the Tate brothers.

Don’t use Copilot, because a malicious worm can propagate (and alter text) in documents and emails that you share with it. Don’t use AI, basically. Ever. The End.

I sincerely believe that men cannot handle this. women may be falling in love with their chat bots, too. But I don't think they are categorically attached to its flattery to the same degree.

This is a very fascinating paper, with some hope for repurposing drugs that can rebuild dopamine terminals.

Dublin Comic Con is next weekend! Looking forward to seeing you all there, where I'll have books and prints galore! GALORE!

Using lists of three is not an "AI tell." It's a common trait in human writing because our brains biologically want to make sure there's always one thing to marry, one thing to fuck, and one thing to murder.

I will defend every DP who films something moody, shadowy or noir. Like every art form, cinematography goes in trends. But also - this is hysterical. I'm cackling. bsky.app/profile/rds-...
