Once you start thinking of AI as a war on humanity, on human thought, on human inquiry, on human labor, on nuance and critical thinking, it slots in pretty seamlessly with the right wing ideological project, oligarchical political projects, big tech's political projects, etc

Also many of us are just as scared of you as you are of us Like what if I hit the failure mode of clever and sound like a complete asshole? Authors 🤝 Readers meeting authors 🧠 Be Cool Be Cool Be Cool 🧠

Am now stuffed full of buttered challah. Should perhaps find a warm rock to drape myself over.

There is so much Wisconsin.

Is anyone else having posts show up in their feed, but when they click on the post, it fails to load? Especially those that are critical of Bluesky moderation overreach? Or is it just me?

“In 2029 we will use antitrust law to break up all companies that went through mergers after donating more than one million $ to President Trump while merger was being reviewed.”

For my afternoon readers: Behind the Curve, Alas, Alack...

You ever notice how many indie-darling and it-girl actresses suddenly had late stage career revivals after he got hit with that lawsuit and his power started waning? Sean Young, Winona Ryder, Robin Wright, Jennifer Connelly, bunch of people suddenly reappeared

To make this clear, the media need to walk people through what happens when tariffs goods arrive in a US port. Who has to fork over the tariff money? The US importer. Where does the money go? The US Treasury. It's a tax.

Also I am informed there will soon be challah.

"If you’re not doing it, then I’m not doing it, so it depends on you right now. Eat your eggs and tell me at the end of it if we’re doing the movie.’”

I have been such a good little worker bee all morning. Now I'm going to go bake cookies, as a wee reward.

Very excited for this all to end with me getting paid $300 per book they stole from me to feed to the Plagiarism Machine That Lies

If anything, those of us who pushed for such a reckoning have been punished more than the actual perpetrators. I spent over a year muzzled in SLAPP litigation for the high crime of... saying I believed a state senator's accuser. The senator sued us activists for defamation.

To be clear the Republicans are killing an FCC rule requiring your ISP be clear about all the bullshit fees they add to your monthly cable and broadband bill to rip you off, usually via false advertising. " So "confusing" isn't really the word I'd use.

Yeah, this was set to "Hide" in my settings. Fuck right off with that.

I went a third of a century accepting, on the testimony of a cartoon, that coyotes chase roadrunners before I ever saw the real thing.

"The wonder and thrill of the library hasn’t gone away for me, not at all, but it has certainly evolved in adulthood."

I expected more actual writing today, but I'll have to settle for noodling. 300 words more than I had before, and a great chunk of administrivia done. Future Lili will be glad of the latter, at least.

Unpopular opinion : that I’m not even sure is safe to say Until we are able to have real discussions about how using Ai is always an attempt at control and domination And that using it without consent is just a violation ? We won’t get anywhere

"Ever one to toy with expectations, Beardsley appeared to be leaning in just as he was definitively backing away."

Uninstall Grammarly NOW. They've partnered with an AI company and actively scrape your writing to train its models.

I'm living in a timeline where a priest is cross examined for being shot in the head with pepper balls and a lawyer is being tried for hucking a sandwich. This feels entirely surreal.

Apparently it's just a Gorillaz day over here.

Zohran Mamdani polled +40% on men under 30. So we wasted all that time on all those think pieces about how we need a Joe Rogan for the left, when what we actually needed were *policies* for the left.

strange subterranean commotions

This one of my favorite fun action books, y'all, and this would be a great time to pick up a copy. Murders! Chases! Severed heads! Cybernetics gone horribly wrong!

time to step away from the starbucks drinks, y’all. do not cross the picket line. unions are how we fight back. corporate monopolies are heavily consolidated right now. it’s a large part of why prices are high and wages are low.

Woke up with the Gorillaz's "Feel Good Inc." playing inside my head, which bodes well for a Wednesday.

I've asked the univese a lot recently for some real, widespread, systemic change for the better, and for all of us to catch a damn break, and i just want to say hey thank you so much.

"Now, for the second time in as many years, the church’s physical copy of the publication has been stolen, leaders of the Luzern church wrote in a press release earlier this month, vowing that “we will not be intimidated.”"

Good news is, I have 1.4k in wordcount today that I didn't have yesterday. Not-so-good news? It's another damn portal fantasy. Looks like the third Underdark book wants to be born NOW, NO WAITING, GET TO WORK LILI.
