This was a fun one, for all there were a lot of serious topics discussed. But Lyra and Kiara had a strong connection, and they were both clearly competent enough to find a way through. I really enjoyed the puma familiar.

Having offended my dear, close friend Mr Scalzi with my last post, I wish to inform all that we are indeed lifelong friends with a deep, intimate, brotherly bond. I pray this is enough for him to lift his threats of violence.

I wrote about the worst people in the world, charting the depths of their depravity and vastness of their incompetence, and offered some thoughts about the opportunity presented by their failure to acknowledge reality and their refusal to access any form of human virtue.

I really really need you guys to make a conscious rejection of generative AI tools part of your ongoing political resistance.
Don't use ChatGPT. Turn off Gemini. Don't read the AI results forced upon you at the top of Google search. Don't use AI art generators or support anyone who does. Please.

Oh please please i am begging, don't use generative AI for any reason if you can avoid it.
It's being marketed as a quick time-saver, but it's messy, inaccurate, it is putting entire industries of people out of work, and the environmental impacts (energy and water usage) are huge and debilitating.
