It should be against the law to make us work when it's dark and cold and rainy. This is inside comforting activity weather, it's ingrained in our bones to know that. I should be in my pajamas reading books and drinking hot choccy.

Gonna read The Starving Saints and Between Two Fires back to back and bask in the medieval fucked up aesthetics 😌👌🏼✨

Like polycules, tragedies, and beautiful illustrations? Looking for more plot with your romance? Check out our proof-of-concept for the light novel I'm working on with my beloved husband.

Thinking a lot about THE BISHOP OF BLACK today, because we really went so hard on the first draft. I'm looking forward to completing the revisions because they're going to knock folx socks all the way off. Also Femi and Irastenys are so pretty togetherrrrr~

Shame about all the drama...

One of my favorite things to do is go hug my sister and swing her while I sing an improv song about how wonderful she is lol. She acts like it’s annoying but I know she feels happy after 💖

It's obvious now that gen AI reproduces structural biases, racist framing, & harmfully structured symbolic relationships buried in the historically-rooted patterns of training text & images.

Here we describe such representational harms in AI image captioning empirically:

HOLY SHIT. They found the genes for fibromyalgia - and it's *not* autoimmune, it's the central nervous system. It's very cool to see some progress made on the thing that's ruined my life since late teenage years!

'Additionally, certain risk loci overlapped with long covid (BPTF) and ME/CFS (OLFM4, RABGAP1L/GPR52), two poorly characterised disorders, albeit with different lead variants.'

Amid the Horrors and caring for little Fitzcarraldo, I am still writing and such. I really do need a new pinned post. But in the meantime, if you like all-queer casts of characters, dangerous magic, fraught romance, and court intrigue--take a look at The Bishop of Black.
