Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality
![[“Fantasy is escapist, and that is its glory. If a soldier is imprisoned by the enemy, don’t we consider it his duty to escape? The moneylenders, the know-nothings, the authoritarians have us all in prison; if we value the freedom of the mind and soul, if we’re partisans of liberty, then it’s our plain duty to escape, and to take as many people with us as we can.”]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hppum4l25hcczzffastsicpq/bafkreihuubdwcftfkvvlnepoaf6pfxqulryfp7ydrydi5fe2pflwz63wgm@jpeg)

OpenAI says it has proof that Deepseek used its work without permission to create something meant to undermine and destroy its product.
On behalf of all the authors whose novels and stories were taken as training data, oh no that must be so hard for you.

The fight for trans rights does not start today, and it doesn’t end today. Much of our history has been the fight, decades and centuries of it. But this is about our survival, no matter how the political or cultural winds shift. They cannot take the space we make for ourselves.

when people ask me "why didn't you start writing earlier?" the answer is always because i didn't know how i would pay next month's rent. that's it. that's the only thing that changed. i didn't miraculously get more creative.
As cost of living increases, as wages stagnate, as housing becomes more precarious, it becomes harder and harder to be able to spend all your time doing weird shit.
Whole ecosystems reliant on people doing weird shit, dry up as their habitat is burned for a billionaire's profit.

Breaking: Amazon tried to dampen the resolve of its striking workers. But the Queens picket line is denser than it was yesterday. Workers remain unbossed and fearless. Hearing reports of an alleged record number of Amazon drivers calling out!
