As an adult not much is stopping you from eating a cartoonishly large wheel of cheese in the manner of a candy bar. You could be carrying around a 50lb wheel of cheese to nibble on all day long, but you have made the choice not to.

To be the lesser evil you have to not enable the greater evil.

Huge thanks to everyone who has donated wood to our woodchuck enclosure. We have reached an undetermined percentage of our goal.

Oh this looks fun 👀
Are you interested in the idea of being apart of a lit mag run by a queer author with a background of several anthologies who would very much like to have fun with other creatives putting out a cool transgressive collection of works?

I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

Rosalind Franklin died at 37 of ovarian cancer attributed to radiation exposure from the methods she & her assistant used to photograph a cross-section of the DNA double helix.

Meanwhile, Watson won a Nobel off that work & survived to the ripe old age of 97 by simply: stealing those notes!

"I have considered the possibility that I might have some culpability for the hijinks which have sparked this investigation. After all...I have deliberately assembled a supergroup of perhaps the most terrible monkeys."
Oh, so you love the monkeys when they're making bold artistic choices, but at the first explosion that's our fault? Read the first free story of Issue 5, where @romiesays.bsky.social explains why that is unjust and improper.

ChatGPT is pedagogically harmful.
Increasingly evident, its cognitively not useful at the least.
It also clearly seems to have profoundly dangerous mental health consequences for vulnerable people.
And I feel like Im in the Twilight Zone trying to get people to hear me on this.
this story is horrifying and universities NEED to accept that ChatGPT is actively harmful
1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad
2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices.

I talk to the press professionally, I'm really, really, really good at it.

So please, please believe me when say you cannot turn this interview request into anything good, it will do only harm. Harm to you, harm to your child, harm to other children.
heads up to anyone who holds trans kids near: amy harmon from the nyt is searching for and having a hard time finding people to interview to find out exactly what trans kids are doing when their care is limited or cut off, and for purposes of community safety, please shut the fuck up around her.

"What radicalized you"

Nothing really, its just that society had redefined radicalized to mean "Basic Fucking Human Empathy"

My abusive ex drove a wedge between me and the best friend I'd had since college. She and I weren't speaking for around a year, and didn't reconnect until the day after I left my ex when I texted her to see if my ex was right about why she had been silent. They were wrong. (1/3)

Pilot had a massive ad spread in a jp newspaper with "make AI jealous" and "write what AI can't touch" written on it

CABIN IN THE WOODS × JOHN DIES AT THE END

When their detective friend is murdered during their annual gaming retreat, 5 dads must rely on years of #TTRPG experience—and puns—to solve the crime before they're all killed off like NPCs in a badly written supernatural campaign.
