Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

Domestic violence increases by 10% primarily affecting women during NFL games.

But women are told we are the "emotional" ones.

There is a crazy passivity to the common conception of the dream of “becoming a writer”, where you find the right entry point and you are accelerated, bobsled run-like, to fame and fortune.

No one wants to hear it’s just writing all the time and not taking a lot of negative things to heart.
Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

JUST LIKE THEY DID WHEN MASSACHUSETTS INSTITUTED A WEALTH TAX

OH WAIT THEY DIDN'T MASSACHUSETTS ACTUALLY HAS MORE RICH PEOPLE NOW BECAUSE THE STATE CAN AFFORD TO BE A NICER PLACE FOR EVERYONE TO LIVE
Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.
A Wealth Tax Floated in California Has Billionaires Thinking of Leaving
It’s uncertain whether the proposal will reach the statewide ballot in November, but some billionaires like Peter Thiel and Larry Page may be unwilling to take the risk.

An easy way to explain this:

Which is easier to do, bake a cake from scratch, or fix a cake that someone baked after they accidentally used salt instead of sugar?
Just a thing about this: a common statement in writing is that you can fix crap, but you can't fix a blank page.

I have heard AI apologists claim that this is why it's fine to generate a first draft.

Now, to be clear, fuck this.

But also: an AI draft is a fucking blank page.
I know I don’t talk about writing much. It is because I am writing so slowly.

But I want you to know that I am taking a part of this story that absolutely sucked and took me months to produce four of the worst chapters I have ever written and in the edit I figured out how to fix it.

For ... for fuck's sake.

Would it have been so hard to find a licensed or free license bit of winter artwork, some clipart doo-dads for the border and just TYPE OUT the message?

You can do it in fucking GIMP or Paint dot net, they're both free.

IT TAKES 10 MINUTES.
Merry Chrisstmas (sp) from this trying hard church sign that was *definitely* made by humans and not by AI because you can’t spell #merryChristmas without … Chrisst

🤣🤣🤣

(The rest of the service was lovely but this STOOD OUT… kind of awkward to misspell the birthday boy’s name at the party) 🎄

We don’t spend enough time discussing how the entire MAGA movement is kept afloat by the constant threats of stochastic terrorism orchestrated by the president of the United States.

Congress, the courts, much of the media … all kept in line by the mob boss and his army of anonymous goons.

I’ve been worried about this. People who signed up for a US ‘self-deportation’ scheme say their payoffs were delayed, misdirected or never arrived – leaving them empty-handed in their home countries.
‘They tricked me’: Migrants were promised $1,000 to voluntarily leave the US. Some never received it
