We need to resist the encroachment of technology into every corner of our lives. Learn to write well. Teach your kids instead of letting a chatbot teach them. It's so important that you employ your thinking and communicating muscles instead of letting them atrophy.

A friend told me she switches on the lights only 5 minutes after entering her home, because she doesn't want people to know which apartment she stays in.
I couldn't empathise then. And as I read the pages of Kim Jiyoung, Born 1982, I realise what she truly meant.

I don’t fucking know. I’m at a loss to express the level of rage, fury, fear, dread, despair, etfuckingc I feel right now.
So I’m gonna go dark for a bit because I don’t want to contribute to anyone else’s levels of helplessness at the moment. But I think I WILL say this …

Dear Publishing Industry,
This is where you double down. This is when you publish POC, LGBTQ, trans, and disabled authors more than ever.
Don’t be complicit.

I’m thinking about my dad a lot tonight. His broken idealist heart. How he saw the whole universe in each individual he met. I think about this often. He meant every word about how we, as a species had wasted our potential. 1/2
