"Even if you've never done BDS before: 

Boycotting between now and January 1st will hit corporations the hardest. They make most of their money for the year in these last 5 weeks.

So, how little can you spend on the death machine?

TV Writers Found 139,000 of Their Scripts Trained AI. Hell Broke Loose It's 'organized crime,' says one, as scribes from Shonda Rhimes to Robert King face a system where studio policy and law remain murky

Big Tech is training AI on thousands of TV/film scripts. I spoke to showrunners, IP and business affairs lawyers — as well as the programmer at The Atlantic who examined this data set — to find out what happens next

Optimist: The cup is half full

Pessimist: The cup is half empty

Daughters : I don’t know how many evenings had my mother scrubbed her heart at the bottom of the cup. I see scratches casting back my face. I think, they are screaming, asking me to run away.

Akram is supporting his mother and five younger siblings, and they're almost three-quarters of the way to their goal. I know we're all spread thin, but many small donations will work wonders where big donations are rarely even possible—please join me in donating to this one now! gofund.me/42bf8c6f

Donate to Help Muhammad and Lubna evacuate to safety, organized by Caroline Corbett Hi beautiful people! My name is Caroline and i’m a U.S. citizen from Utah… Caroline Corbett needs your support for Help Muhammad and Lubna evacuate to safety

If you want Bluesky to be a viable platform as the internet's new town square, it must be capable of building support for Palestinians during the genocide or it will only ever be a walled garden of denial. Please help Muhammad and Lubna with donations and/or boosts. www.gofundme.com/f/help-muham...

these days, i keep thinking of turning it into a short fiction but i fear i would ruin its rawness. it is supposed to be read as a conversation. a very heart-to-heart talk before parting.

i’ve a prose (almost a short fiction, if i be frank — saying almost, because it has a story-like unfolding narration but not the preciseness of the genre) i found no real home for. kind of want it off my hands. she's too beautiful to be reserved just for my eyes.

Two stunningly beautiful humans cosplaying Blue and Red from This Is How You Lose the Time War, a book I co-wrote with Max Gladstone. One is dressed very femininely in blue and holding up a red envelope, while the other is wearing a red and black armour situation printed on a leotard and holding up a blue envelope.

“Israel cannot do any of this … without the US and western European countries. The US gives Israel the green light. It is a party to the war on Palestine. … I am not just at this because I am a Palestinian. It is because I am an American. Because we are responsible.” — Rashid Khalidi

Also on this, I love my messy processes. I love rearranging the bones of my story weaving muscle, pruning tendons. I love doing it again and again until it clicks, I love revisions where the story comes alive!
