saw a comment that misspelled “kind gesture” as “kind jester” and am now imagining a beautiful world where we praise good samaritans by calling them kind jesters. good on you, you gentle fool. you’ve made the world a sweeter and sillier place.

a new reality tv show called So you think you can write Doctor Who

twelve episodes, twelve contestants - a mix of annoying middle aged sci fi authors, fan fic authors and random people off the street

a variety of against the clock writing tasks, big finish scripts, ability to interact with actors without shouting at them and challenges where you have no budget or doctor for an episode

judged by solely by christopher eccleston

this is how you find the new doctor who showrunner

nitronine

dr who book fans when the show is cancelled and there are thousands of tv-only fans to recommend their weird niche and often terrible books to

unamccormack

I warmly recommend my weird and often terrible books.

raineszramski

Soooo many books to recommend. Sooo many. And so many more still need to be written.

A wonderful piece about fandom history, friendships, and legacies.

Dee called AO3 a “candy store,” and said the fan art she has seen, in particular, has been overwhelming. “I cannot get over the art,” she said. “We would have jumped at this. I would’ve given my right tit for all this art when I was in my twenties. Because you couldn’t reproduce it, you couldn’t send it out, but [now] there’s this fabulous art coming out every single day.”

Yes. Yes. Yes. This is how it happened. Excellent article.

Heinous bonus down side of generative AI use I’m seeing (and we didn’t need bonus down sides, we are rich in down sides) is that people are now becoming convinced that anything that looks remotely polished must be AI.

Which. Come on. Come ON.

Just because AI bros are convinced that being good at creative things is impossible doesn’t mean we have to agree.

I absolutely loathe that in a few short months we’ve started drifting toward the idea that humans are incapable of being good at stuff. I haven’t spent 75% of my life writing just to be told humans can’t write. Go to hell.
