Our movement is growing and we're proud to receive the endorsements of Gov. @mikiesherrill.bsky.social and Senators @corybooker.com @andykimnj.bsky.social. Unifying as Democrats is more critical than ever before to fight for our nation's futures and narrow the GOP margin in Congress. Let's win this!

I am not even kidding but I've been searching for the original MS of a story with "gaslight" in the title and file explorer says there never was one.

Face verification? How the hell will that even work if a woman looks way younger than her age? Like some women who are in their 30s look 13

I got a question yalls in the #bookcommunity

is there a gender neutral term for "master?" I'm thinking of just keeping it as master since one of my mcs calls their mentor (a woman) master. Even though it's technically a male term. Should I keep it as "master?"

Yeahhh

Inwas really strugglimg with my book (fantady at the time) because I was writing for white people. Then I came across an interview by Apunva and she was talking about how she gave herself permission to write brown and a light bulb came on.

I realized I wasnt writimg for myself.

Life = same different day
Faith = the world was populated by one guy on a raft
Religion = hippie died on a cross for our sins

More or less?

Buddhism is just a way of life you can be a Christian Buddhist Jewish Bhuddist Hindu Bhuddist. I think Usurla K Le Guin was Bhuddist. My nanima was until she changed to Sikhism. I forget the exact Sikh she was but she followed a Guru (not one the 12).

One thing I domt see much in sci/fan is a main pov from a non white ex. brown character. Most brown characters are either hot exptic woman that the white main character won or they're scientist comic reliefs or somethimg.

I wanna explore second gen brown characters in my writing

I'm Punjabi too :) but I was never taught. I can understand Punjabi and Hindi at times but not well.enough to completely follow. I watch Bollywood movies ever so often but I have always identified as Indian. I had the typical second gen Indian white washed but once I hit my late 20s

Oh big point I forgot to mention in my experience with using AI:

AI will shower you with praise. It say such-and-such idea is basically groundbreaking. It will side with you and tell you basically everything you wanna hear.

I fear for my sister. AI brain rot is real.

Is writing without AI slower? Yeah. But it's about the journey not the destination. I do all my research now myself. I write everything myself. I have bought a lot of nonfiction for my sci-fi research and I go off that. But I'm in the process of trying to make my friend stop using AI ๐Ÿ˜‚

I didn't realize it can be addictive though. I watched a video about this guy who had something called AI-pscyhosis. I don't think I ever had that though. Cause AI is pretty fucking garbage for writing your book is what I've noticed. It's okay-ish for brainstorming but even that is sus
