Fuck this. As an industry, we are in an existential crisis of book banning because of homophobia and transphobia weaponized by racist authoritarians. “Dirty books” are not the problem. Censorship is.

Make whatever books you like, but don’t you dare call other books dirty in your shitty marketing.

This marketing is really insulting to the rest of us out here who’ve been writing for teens for a while. We’ve got censors on one side, colonization by adult Romantacy on the other and now these condescending “saviors” right in the middle telling us we’re dirty. This sucks.

OpenAI ”acknowledged in its own research that LLMs will always produce hallucinations due to fundamental mathematical constraints that cannot be solved through better engineering, marking a significant admission from one of the AI industry’s leading companies.”

You can’t trust chatbots.

“Sycophancy was present across all the chatbots they tested, & the bots frequently told users that their actions or beliefs were justified in cases where the user was acting deceptively, doing something illegal, or engaging in otherwise harmful or abusive behavior.”🧪

Combined cycle gas turbine power (often used for mid-merit and peaking plants), and offshore wind are both at ~$100/MWh for generation. Coal and grid scale batteries are at ~$80/MWh for generation or discharge. PVs and onshore wind are at ~$40/MWh generation.

We don't need to fight over fossil fuels. BloombergNEF reports grid-scale batteries are as cheap as coal per MWh. Offshore wind is comparable in price to combined cycle gas turbine power, & onshore wind & PVs (fixed & tracking) are both significantly cheaper than fossil fuels. 🧪🔌💡☀️💨💧🔋

Posted this and a friend texted to say they were on the fence about going and this tipped them into going. Let your friends know you're going! Invite them along! They're mad too and doing something always feels better than doing nothing. We're in this together. ❤️👊

America As No-Longer-Democracy and Not-Yet-Dictatorship Where does the country stand after the largest day of protest in U.S. history? Putting “No Kings” in perspective

Forget all the “Protests don’t matter” and “No Kings is just silly” nonsense.

Protests matter. Societal resistance has been hardening. It’s a massive problem for the MAGA regime.

And “No Kings” is crucial as part of an effort to dispel the idea that “real America” stands behind Trump.
