We actually need a “Not interested, this is AI” button or a proper AI blocker. The algorithm needs to learn how badly most people don’t want AI slop.

Etsy has banned AI-generated patterns and bot listings, and will now require sellers to post a real photo of the actual handmade item, protecting its 5 million mostly women-run shops.

Happy to announce I built a Greek/English reader site with all the surviving plays of Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, & Aristophanes. Multiple translations for each play; click to parse & define for any Greek word; full Greek & English search. greekdrama.johnhboyer.com

As an autistic person with superhuman pattern recognition and who literally studied the rise of fascism for their entire life, I’m going to hold your hand as I tell you: we have passed all the thresholds - they are coming for all of us. Violently. Camps. Disappearing. All of it. If we have any hope at all, we have to shut this down NOW.

This is an anthology you'll want to get, and we're extremely proud to be one of the journals selecting a poem we've published in 2026 to be in it. Poems in our upcoming December issue are eligible, and submissions for the issue are open through October 31. Link in bio.
We're excited to share the news of a new annual "best of" poetry anthology, Firelit, founded by the intrepid @Katie_Dozier and @timothygreen. firelitprize.org/
