Just because someone's coughing doesn't mean they're sick but if you're on an airplane coughing away and you don't COVER YOUR MOUTH you might be a monster

This is soooo offensive! JFC. I was at the Torrent game last night and it was an exciting victory in front of a packed crowd that went wild. Their first home win! And The Seattle Times can't even get their name in the headline right (they BEAT the Sirens). The basketball photo is so overly large. 😂
Boys’ high school basketball: huge article. Women’s professional hockey, local team wins: wayyy down in the corner.

I think I just really hate "all members of this species are evil" as a fantasy trope in general. The demons in my books are literally being mind controlled by a god who hates humans and they still sometimes find loopholes to be not-evil

we have an anonymous career-advice channel at work and it’s breaking my heart to see early-career engineers posting things like “i’m feeling pressured to use LLMs to increase my output and i’m not having fun solving problems/i feel like i’m not learning enough”

I briefly thought the Seattle Times' "save print newspapers only" columnist was advocating for online news, but nope: The bill he supports would fund only websites run by print publications or nonprofit news outlets, setting a standard for online news that no print outlet has to meet.

...yeah. Okay. Enough.
This happens every year, it seems. The SFWA awards a writer the Grand Master Award, and if that writer is not a white male, a portion of the fanbase begins complaining vociferously about the award winner.
These "fans" are, of course, white men, 45+ years old.

I see downthread that the names are being kept close to the vest out of respect to the victims and... I get it, but I hate that; yet another whisper network missing stair or two out there.

To the two well-respected local SF/F community leaders who each told a teenage child of a friend of mine, "I can't wait for you to turn 18, I'll be waiting for you," I know your names you fucking shitty-ass pedo bastards, and I *remember*.
I see the “technically it’s ephebophelia” crowd is out today, so just a reminder that A) this is NOT a case where technically correct is the best kind of correct and B) the minute you say this, the gods dump you in the “irredeemable creeper” basket and wash their hands thoroughly after touching you.
