The incredible James SA Corey is (are?) at it again with their excellent novella Livesuit. There's one moment that's just so perfect I needed to tell someone about it. Turns out that someone is you!

Great story, great game 😍

“Hey, I’m Coray. I work at Meta. This looks really cool.”

McCallum and his devs thought it was B.S. But Seifert gave a legit Meta email...and 11 months later, after a rigorous greenlighting process, they had a deal."

“Organic” writing not created using AI will always be the most popular type of storytelling, even as AI becomes more advanced. Humans are drawn to *intention* in their art, and knowing that something was created by an averaging tool removes much of the appeal, even if on a barely conscious level.

THE DOG STARS x THE END OF MEN
After the women’s plague, a lonely farmer contemplates the end, when a woman who shouldn’t exist kills a thief on his farm. They flee reprisals across a frozen prairie & battle into the wilds where survivors plan to save humanity. At all costs.

3x3 mood board grid of images: a micrograph of a virus, a field of corn, a woman with a crossbow, a mason jar of whiskey, the northern lights silhouetting a pine forest, a pair of riders on horseback traversing a snow-covered plain, a closeup of a shortwave radio, children dancing under the sun, a high-tension power line tower, all against a backdrop of the Milkyway in the night sky.

17 is hard, but when you're set to take over presidency from your father, survive a ☠️ attempt, are betrayed by the two you love & learn your role is to maintain peace by keeping 200yo lies & manipulating the public or start the biggest war in centuries, 17 is REALLY hard.

A photo that reads: The Pitch! It’s the end of a hot Iowan summer, and twenty-four-year-old Matilda West is gearing up for her sophomore year of college at Oak Ridge University. A scholarship student, she is swayed by the suggestion of her favorite professor to join a study group he’s created for his Classical Mythology course. The students in the group adopt her quickly, but Matilda’s past has made her wary and anxious of new people and their intentions. When she finds herself drawn toward two of the people in the group, including an unexplainable feeling like she’s met one of them before, Matilda is thrown in the middle of a situation she couldn’t have seen coming. Weird dreams and the fact that her life might not be what she thought it was force Matilda to question whether her fate was already decided, or if someone else is pulling the strings… How does one juggle school work, healing trauma, finding love, and supporting a diverse community, while also fighting for their fate and the rest of the world?

Center left: A man stands in darkness; his head is on fire. Bottom left: A wireframe of a dragon against a bright orange background Top/mid center: Alphonse Mucha's Emerald, featuring a woman staring intensely at the viewer as she leans against the head of a snarling serpent.
