- Y’all maybe we need to have a short queer horror story collection where the theme is ‘fuck AI.’

- Going off this, it worries me how many writers will flat out lie about how successful they are, like by saying they have a team or a personal assistant when they truly don't, but they want to appear more successful. It's bizarre to me to clout chase as a writer. This isn't glamorous work 😂

- So. AI audiobooks. Thing is, sharing stories is one the oldest human activities, a truly beautiful thing, and I don’t understand people who think AI can bring anything to the table… 🧵 1/7
- Don’t be a cunt.
- But... But I'm so good at it...

- LGBT+ politicians angry at the pride ban should look at how happy the rest of the community is that you’re not allowed to flog stickers this year and do some deep self reflection on whether your party still represents you, not whether pride does.

- .....No? Look, I write all of my books for literally three people and if anyone else likes or even reads them, that's pretty neat, but I want people "debating" my stories about as much as I want to eat a lightbulb.

- In the news: In which we learn that our leaders find it easier to believe "AI is the future" than to believe that actual, living human beings who make art for a living have rights and deserve respect. Our consent doesn't matter to them. Only appeasing the tech bros matters.
- If this all feels too much to fight, start small. Take "aspiring writer" out of your bio and replace it with "writer." Stop saying things like "I don't have a proper job." Support creators; translators; illustrators. Boycott AI generated junk. We are many. They are few. And we have the words.
- Writers: before you sign a contract with a publisher, make sure AI isn't replacing your illustrator, your translator, your editor, your jacket designer. Readers: if you're thinking of buying a book, do the same. Refuse. Resist. If AI garbage doesn't sell, people will stop making it.

- I am in favour of assisted dying but you simply cannot allow it in a country that hates the vulnerable and disabled as much as the UK.

- Three weeks until we close, folks. If you haven't submitted yet, get polishing! 🥰
- Your regular reminder that Hadley Freeman is a Woody Allen defender and misrepresented the views of both Margaret Atwood and Judy Blume so badly, they both released statements after her interviews were published. This is not a serious person.
- Misgendering is now standard in the press. Is this the 'dignity' they're always talking about?
