When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.

Wow. Only like every librarian, teacher, professor, writer, etc worth their salt has been saying this since the damnable thing came out.
Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

i hate how people and even literature sometimes reduces the concept of an unreliable narrator to 'the book lying to you', not 'you are viewing the world through the eyes of someone who does not see an absolute truth'

Take your Kimmel protest energy and use it to freeze out that hateful JKR too!

Maybe HP was a part of your childhood. Well now it's a slap in the face and a dagger in the back of people who just wanna live.

Don't let her see a dime!
Gonna just say, if it's this easy to protest against the monolith that is Disney. Then there is no excuse for people to be clinging to Harry Potter. Like, if the needle can be moved against Disney, people can make it move against JK Rowling. Stop the flow of money into her accounts,
If you protested Jimmy Kimmel being pulled off the air by canceling Disney+ or some similarly simple action that had clear, direct, effective results, it feels good that you helped get him back, right? The neat part of you can choose another simple action, and keep that awesome feeling going.

Trans rights are not the rights of a tiny minority, trans rights are everyone’s rights to self-determination, control of our bodies, and a society where opportunity and aesthetics are not restricted by sex assigned at birth

You should support and defend trans people because trans people are people

I saw an infographic a couple years ago about how to remove source identifiers from links and why it's important, but I can't find it again and too many people I know are sending me links with them so here's an infographic straight from the oven

In case anyone’s curious, that one 99c ebook you bought is 1/3 of a coffee for you and 100% a day made for an author. It truly does mean the world to us, no matter how small the sale. Just knowing our words are out there being read is an amazing feeling. Thank you, dear readers 🫶

Yelling about nobody having media literacy anymore and the decline in critical thinking skills while also being an active user of genAI is the perfect distillation of the dissonance of the modern era. In this essay I will --

The fact that straight people/the general cishet populace struggle to understand and empathize with asexuality and how people can live like that, BY ITSELF, categorizes it as a queer identity.

hey for anyone who might want to actually own their kindle books instead of renting them, or who might be thinking of switching to kobo etc and will want to convert them to epubs, you now only have one week before amazon kills your ability to download its ebooks www.theverge.com/news/612898/...
Amazon’s killing a feature that let you download and backup Kindle books
It’s bad if you like to keep ebook backup copies.
