Remember to enjoy the arts. Support them. Experience joy. It'll revitalize you and remind you what you're fighting for, instead of focusing entirely on what you're fighting against, which will deplete you.

Anyone else scared to submit their manuscript to beta readers? I found a way to bridge my fear and get moving forward again. Read about it here on Substack.

How I built my own beta readers with ChatGPT. Five distinct reader voices, one editor, all genre-specific. It gave me the feedback I couldn’t get anywhere else.
Read it on Medium.

Want honest, genre-specific feedback on your novel draft? I made a ChatGPT prompt that simulates a panel of 5 beta readers—each with strong opinions, unique reading tastes, and zero hesitation.
Get it here.

Prompting AI art isn’t magic—it’s creative direction. Great MidJourney results come from strategy, not luck. I wrote about the hidden labor behind prompts and why most people get it wrong.

Is it wrong to profit from AI art?
Only if you think using new tools has ever been wrong. Sewing machines, calculators, typewriters—every one sparked outrage before becoming normal. AI is just the latest. Read more.

Just to be clear, this is a violation of the fundamental ethical principle in clinical trial design called "equipoise."

Equipoise means that no-one is exposed to excess risk just to test the therapy. That's specifically *why* vaccine trials don't use placebo arms.

Ethical violation as POLICY.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr will require all new vaccines to undergo placebo testing, WaPo reports
U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr intends to shift the way vaccines are tested, The Washington Post reported on Wednesday, citing a spokesperson from the HHS.

Someone create an app that you input your zip code and symptoms. It maps out where in the world you could get seen by a doc without prior authorizations, etc. It includes cost of service and current price of hotels and flights. Then compares that to what you'd pay to get the same help in the US.
