It's that season again!
What season? you may ask.
Why, I'll say, the season of once more sharing one of the most surreal and vaguely ominous Christmas greetings I've ever seen. . . Take it away, Mayor Santini and Family!!

Just gonna say this again for games sphere cus we get the same question:
Networking doesn't mean schmoozing up to famous people, it means making friends with your peers. Then in 10 years, 20, one of you might be famous? And sure you're still helping each other cus well yeah friends.
Make. Friends.

Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

this is exactly what the legal industry is dealing with
No one says to legit business owners, "hey I see there's an underground market selling toxic knock-offs of your product: how will you incorporate the toxic product AND protect your customers against its harms?" But apparently it's fine to make this suggestion to educators with respect to AI.

Listen, 99% of us are nobodies. How many writers are you "competing" with to reach "somebody" status (lol)? A LOT. I know people, some of them NOT white men!, who bust their asses producing some of the most exquisite and outstanding fiction you've ever read and they are STILL treated like nobodies.

This is a really dense and thoughtful piece that does a great job of contextualizing what Cameron is doing as a filmmaker rather than outright roasting him.
wrote about how James Cameron used the tropes & imagery Western in the Avatar films and how his adaptation of the genre reduces it of its complexity www.avclub.com/james-camero...
James Cameron tried to bring the Western into the future, but only went backwards
Avatar: Fire And Ash shows how clearly James Cameron has regressed towards the worst tropes of the Western.

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.

"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.
