Agree. I will never understand the desperate wish of tech promoters and AI users to avoid doing the things that make us human. Writing is hard; that’s the point. Art is difficult to make & worth it. Reading can be a challenge; it’s how to learn. Why delegate these to soulless AI? To do what instead?

Yeah I usually hate the old “capitalists want to charge you to breathe the air” stuff but damn this really feels like they want to take books away and charge to have a computer read for us.

![Tumblr post by user kalira , dated Oct 20, 2024:
I say this very gently and with much love, and I say it not only as a writer myself but as someone who has been privy to many 'but how can they not know that work is amazing! 1 love it! I gushed about it to every friend I have and recced in x, y, z servers and [...]'
The writer or artist doesn't know this.
They have no way of knowing that you found their work beautiful and lifechanging or even just a bright spot on a bad day or that you think about it every day or that you told all your friends about it, and those things are great but we have no way of knowing them! You may not be doing it intentionally, but you're excluding the writer or artist from the community feeling of fandom that you are carrying on (that is so great! fandom is a community! continue to talk and play!) even with their work.
Please, please just drop a line even that is "oh gosh I absolutely love this work, I screamed to every one of my
friends about it when I first read/saw it!" even if you don't
have the spoons to share more of the specifics that made you flail at your friends or what you said in private. (Though if you do, we will love you forever for it.)](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:avvpb4ypfttlslmobsjqt7qq/bafkreibc6zd4nfz77j3teab5leeumgh3dttk5j7vv33e3agrspts7n23pe@jpeg)

Excellent article from David Landy of TCD on their courageous decision to cease collaborations with Israeli universities and other institutions. Would love to see my university, TU Dublin, following suit.
Why academic institutions are cutting ties with Israel
Messages from colleagues from Gaza and the displaced Palestinian students on our campuses have been the driving force for many of us

I'll say it over and over.
I do not believe in gate keeping.
I do not believe in pulling up the ladder.
I believe in kicking the wall down like the Kool-Aid man, and making room as I go for those who come next.
Just because it was hard for me, doesn't mean it has to be hard for anyone else.

There is no justification whatsoever for the US or UK to provide any support, material or diplomatic, for Israel's attack on Iran. It is a war of aggression, clearly contrary to international law.
