Love love love seeing @anthonyengebretson.bsky.social’s eco-alt-history nail-shredder revisited and still finding new readers. This sucker packs more delusional unhinged human behavior into its page count than is advised for a healthy diet🖤☠️

My last read: Lumberjack by @anthonyengebretson.bsky.social A tight, tense historical novella with a protagonist so dangerously delusional, I had to take a breather after one particular chapter. 5 🪓🪓🪓🪓🪓/5

Want to read the first and only novella I've ever written? On Phantom Wings is featured in The Writhing, Verdant End alongside a novelette by Corey Farrenkopf and four stories by Tiffany Morris. The three of us have wildly different approaches to ecohorror, and this book is all the better for it!

The fact that 30% of our stock market is wrapped up in “help-kids-kill-themselves” technology seems to be an important datapoint in the evolution of late stage capitalism.
ChatGPT advised a suicidal young woman on how to take her own life, telling her "If you choose death, I'm with you - till the end, without judging."
I wanted ChatGPT to help me. So why did it advise me how to kill myself?
ChatGPT wrote a woman a suicide note and another AI chatbot role-played sexual acts with children, BBC finds.
