The Cat, Opussyquinusque, 1932 by Duncan Grant

Composer Austin Wintory was once in talks to make music for Mass Effect 5, and now that EA has shuttered BioWare and canceled the game, he's released his drafts online. https://bit.ly/4evMujI

Big Brother is watching, but now we can watch Big Brother right back. I love that MapQuest is flipping the script. Apple Maps, where you at?!

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

I’m really looking forward to sharing the story in this issue with you all!

Fantastic news from Aotearoa New Zealand - trans healthcare professionals have won their court case against the government, overturning the country's ban on puberty blockers. Huge respect and congratulations to everyone involved in this fight.

This shit is not inevitable. You can shame people for using bad tools made with stolen data. Or if you want, you can just frame it as your preference for hand made art.

Wish I got $5k for every story of mine that Anthropic ate!

And yet AI companies Hoover up every book ever written and say “hey, what are you looking at?”

New: As gay bars across the country say that Meta is flagging and deactivating their accounts without warning, I spoke to an Austin queer bar that says Meta nearly destroyed their ability to advertise events: www.chron.com/culture/arti...

New figures in - Australians still hate Trump's USA, but like Canada live.thepoint.com.au

According to Kickstarter tracking service, Kicktraq, the LIGHTSPEED + NIGHTMARE campaign is trending toward only reaching 94% of our goal. So WE STILL NEED YOUR HELP. If you love SF, fantasy, and horror short fiction, please consider backing today and sharing this post. bit.ly/LS-NM-26

All the companies using GenAI commercials are the ones who can afford not to. Because some billionaires slashed their art and marketing departments to take more of your money directly. Unsurprising it’s mostly soft drink and junk food companies. One way to save calories? Eat. The. Rich.

Very excited to have “The Three Paths You Take Upon the Death of Your Beloved Sister” out today at SMT!! 🖤🖤🖤
