Also, shout out to @scalzi.com, who created lots of change decades ago (HUGO PACKET) to allow a poor woman from the rural U.S. South to participate fairly in the awards, which led to me having the idea for the spreadsheet at all. It wouldn't exist without him, and the contributions of every fan.

What do you mean my new hardcover Tor novella was $27?!? This is half my book budget for the entire quarter. 😂

“I hate this person” is a group chat thought, not a public thought. As someone who experienced this in the past just keep it to yourself and your close friends! Your hatred isn’t worth smothering the vibe!

TikTok's video editor is the WORST I have ever used. Why does it have invisible rules?!

tbh I'm disappointed that there's not an image of 30-50 feral whales lifting a tiny butterfly with ropes whenever Bluesky crashes

Through dangers untold and hardships unnumbered

I have fought my way here to the castle beyond the Goblin City to take back the child that you have stolen

For my will is as strong as yours and my kingdom is as great

You have no power over me

Counterpoint: I use em dashes with abandon and will not let "AI" steal them from me. I was overusing them first and will continue to do so long after "AI" is a crater in our financial system, or our merciless overlords, or both

I hate the term "cringe" so fucking much. Get a fucking backbone. Like what you fucking like. Other people like different shit. Fucking gatekeeping serotonin does not make you cool.

If you can substitute "hungry ghost trapped in a jar" for "AI" in a sentence it's probably a valid use case for LLMs. Take "I have a bunch of hungry ghosts in jars, they mainly write SQL queries for me". Sure. Reasonable use case.

"My girlfriend is a hungry ghost I trapped in a jar"? No. Deranged.
