People are only pretending not to understand impact vs intent. You ever smack someone unintentionally because you were yanking an object? Step on someone's toe while walking? Bump into someone because you were distracted? I bet you always apologize even if it was unintentional, don't you? Exactly.

Not everyone is worth replying to. Not everyone deserves your time. let ignorance die on its own vine rather than spreading its seeds or worse, inhaling its pollen.

May every single person in power be held accountable. Let the system that upheld their abuse burn and justice prevail.

Daily reminder to non-Minnesotans that we still need help here. Very much appreciate everyone who is donating funds or airline miles, everyone who is taking the time to call their members of congress. Everyone sending kind words of support. (See below links for guidance & links.)

Brett Ratner, the sex pest who came out of retirement to direct the Melania movie that Jeff Bezos spent $75 million on as thousands of people at Amazon and the Washington Post lost their jobs, helped produce an ad in which rapist Mike Tyson spewed fatphobic dreck for Secretary Bear Carcass

Every instance of "AI democratizes the arts, you're classist and ableist and a gatekeeper for trying to stop it" is a slap in the face to the literally centuries of poor, disabled people making art on the margins and a crass lie in service of a machine that strips down and regurgitates dreams

"AI is a tool of fascism" really needs to start being one of the primary talking points

My friend Shamir is making a movie!!! Check out gofund.me/afb11c3e9

In light of everything going on this may seem trivial but If you're a writer who says generative AI is making u a better author you sound like a karaoke singer saying karaoke singing makes you a better songwriter. Its a nonsensical response that reveals the truth U know u dont have it

By telling more intimate stories like #WonderMan, Marvel taps back into that core strength — reminding us that heroes matter most when they feel human first, and super second. Full Review at /Film: www.slashfilm.com/2082427/wond...

Did you know that @venessakelley.bsky.social gorgeous historical fantasy novel, WHEN THE TIDES HELD THE MOON has an equally LUMINOUS audiobook? Did you also know that it's available for less than a cup of coffee via Chirp Books right now? Well... now you know. www.chirpbooks.com/authors/vene...

I recently listened to @thisendsatprom.bsky.social episode on this movie and I just know BJ feels very vindicated right now 😄

The TV in my hotel room is using AI to upscale cartoons, and it looks like absolute shit. AI is such a plague, and it is infecting everything.

I do this with great embarrassment but with my unemployment plus short term writing gigs I’m flailing. I’m looking for absolutely any work right now. This would let me continue looking in my field. Times are tough so if you can’t donate please share gofund.me/bce622f22

It's always "listen to Black women" until it becomes time to actually listen to Black women.

At this point I’m blocking anyone who admits “I asked ChatGPT.” I don’t care if I’ve known you 20 years or if you’re a stranger who ended up on my timeline. Get gone.

Morning thoughts about "AI". Where do we go from here?

It’s transgender day of remembrance, I’ve lost too many sisters this year. It’s days like today where this old tweet from weedcatholic comes to mind. You *have* to live, you can scream you can cry, but you gotta live.

Just a reminder that if you are able to, you can donate to Mutual Aim and help @atuteinsp.bsky.social bring help to people in Sudan, Congo, Palestine and may more! Link to resources and info in my bio 🫶🏾 @givebutter givebutter.com/V34qiR #blacksky

Sums it up nicely. Every time I see some "proship dni" in someone's bio I sigh heavily because most the time it doesn't mean anything at all.

Zelda has been sounding the alarm on the dangers of AI for YEARS, long before the technology got to where it is now, because she's: 1) brilliant (go watch Lisa Frankenstein). 2) ridiculously smart. 3) experienced first-hand how fucking WEIRD people are about her Dad.

Happy black history month to my UK friends! 🫶🏾

I was interviewed for this great article about audiobook narration! There’s so much that goes into it that people don’t even realize, and there’s so much work that we, as narrators, have to do on our own. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

Better late than straight is such a brilliant title for an episode.

I have a big request. My baby cousin, 15, is in hospital, non-responsive. I'd like to see her one last time & am trying to fly across the ocean *tomorrow* to make this happen. It would cost about £2500 or £3300 dollars. If you're able to contribute, this is my paypal: paypal.me/riversandfam

Hey, heads up for everyone on TikTok, this is NOT me. The thing that annoys me the most is that they have a subscription account, so they are getting paid to repost my videos. 😒 Please report them.
