Serious thing for folks to consider is, particularly for marginalized people, Grudges Are Self-Defense. What you may be interpreting as pettiness is probably closer aligned to "You have demonstrated you're not to be trusted." And knowing who REALLY has your back is more important that ever.
I feel in my bones that the wave has started to crash back in and Certain People/Companies who thought they were safe to abandon everyone they’d been pretending to care about will suddenly realize that those people have money/power and I, for one, will be holding a grudge until the end of time 💜

Okay, I will preface this with the GIGANTIC disclaimer that I promise I know how this looks, and I *swear* this is not personally motivated: If you have an old #LiveJournal account, and it has things you still care about in it, download it or import it to Dreamwidth SOON. Details:

Way too many posts in the TL today about how we just need to be friendly to fascists and give them everything they want and I don't even need to ask "have you ever read history" because have you ever even paid attention to the last year?

This is not hard. Artists are not responsible for ensuring the Kennedy Center remains relevant and successful. The center’s board is responsible for that, in a fiduciary way. All of this energy being directed at artists should be re-directed at the board.

We now go live to That AI Evangelizer In Your Office, once again trying to convince everyone to just read the AI summary of the AI generated progress update on his project.
Underwood: you can use AI to interpret contracts
King: oh, really? maybe that would be useful
Barker: i have a follow-up question
Underwood: no questions
Barker: will the AI interpret the contracts correctly?
Underwood: SYNTAX ERROR
Underwood: ABORT RETRY FAIL?

This portrayal of AI use is accurate but incomplete. For the whole picture, take a bottle of water, add heavy metals and random solvents, and then dump it over your favourite houseplant.
Underwood: in the future, today's modern now-a-go-go writer will use AI for three different things, including idea generation, editing, traslaton, idea generation, cloot, advetismmming, vvooooyyu, gliii73m, anddd yuuu

Btw yesterday was Mr Novel’s and my anniversary—7 years of marriage—and tomorrow is our dating anniversary, 10 years together. He’s a delight. When you find the people you don’t get tired of, hang on to them. Contractually, if possible. :)

My MIL sent an e-card to me, probably for our wedding anniversary, and where they usually say “First Last sent you an ecard” in the automated notification email, this one said “Mom sent you an ecard.”
Which you might think is sweet, but unfortunately is just another attempt at manipulation.

A little surprised that I haven't seen that idiot "theferrett" giving his two cents about the male hiker who got mad about the woman who didn't smile at him on the trail.
Seems like the kind of thing he has big opinions about.

Trump was born on third base and managed to steal second.
Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her.
What a racist piece of shit.
What a racist piece of shit.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

We've been watching Forged in Fire, which we enjoy quite a bit, but I'm starting to wonder when we'll hit the "Oops! All Nazis" episode that I *know* has to have happened at some point.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.
