Don't forget that Zohran Mamdani spent his entire campaign standing proudly beside the trans community. He went to trans rights rallies just to show support. He proudly waved trans rights flags without hesitation. He refused to back down in support of trans rights. That makes me happy.

The only truly ethical response that a self-described artist can make. Anything else is a betrayal of one's colleagues.
“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡
Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI
Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

reading a book called Boldly Writing, which is a sort of chronicle of the early Star Trek fandom's fanzines and fanfiction, and it's really interesting. It's a fairly plain chronological retelling but it still speaks to me all these years later, mainly because of how it makes me feel about fandom 🧵

Happened to find this - it's a useful little website if you A) want to know why you should drop Substack and B) want a list of alternatives.

A couple also have tools to import your old SS posts over.

As we boycott vile companies, a reminder that many US public libraries offer:

1) Ebooks & audiobooks via the Libby app. Pro tip: use the “notify me” tag to request your library add books by trans, disabled, & BIPOC authors!

2) TV & film streaming via Kanopy

3) Language learning via Mango

💙📚 And:
Want to read ethically by ditching Audible/Amazon, Spotify, &c? 💙📚

1. Your local library needs support & has free physical & audiobooks

2. Queer Liberation Library: free digital library for US LBGTQ folks

3. Libro.fm: Audible but pays indie bookshops

4. Bookshop.org: physical books from indies
