I think it’s notable that some of the first real limits on the use of generative AI were brought to us by labor. Not Congress. Not “ethical” AI shops nestled inside big tech companies. A union.
One of the best parts of the WGA deal: AI has now hit a brick wall in Hollywood, *and that includes adaptations.*
Based on the deal, AI can't be source material. So if you're a publisher, AI novels or graphic novels or whatever just became that much less appealing because *they can't be optioned.*

I had a bit of a revelation the other day. Evangelicals think queer signaling is trying to “indoctrinate” people to be queer because that’s what xtians do.
They wear a cross, display Bible verses, etc. primarily to evangelize.
I put up a flag primarily to make other queer people feel safe.

I think the ultimate look is wearing a cape and a skirt and having the cape go further down than the skirt

So so so much now was used then. Bathrooms. Conversion therapy/detransitioners. Groomer accusations.
It is easier to be gay, queer, bi, pan, lesbian in the US now than it was 30 years ago.
I would know—that’s how long I’ve been out.
But it got better because we fought for it. And we fight now.

It's good to have a reminder that it was only a couple decades ago that media outlets would publish "ex-gay" movement nonsense as front page stories. It puts the current obsession with "detransitioners" in perspective. It's the same panic, same tactic.

I'm delighted that a) Chuck Tingle has a horror novel, and b) Mara Wilson narrated it?! I love this for us!
Thank you so much! What a joy to record that book! I love working with Chuck Tingle. He and I share an earnestness.
I listened to Camp Damascus last week. Story and narration were both outstanding! I'd hire you, if my novel were even remotely ready to narrate.
