I am cordially inviting all of you to post this in the comments/reblogs of any and every Al post you come across, on any platform. Especially useful for accounts who “teach” people how to use Al.

This comment was left on a post about making the most of the Libby app. "Excessive use of generous lending policies" is the most absurd phrase I've ever seen anyone use to discuss libraries.

looked up Heidi because I'm a journalist

for reasons I can't imagine this publisher of sexless Alaska love stories is averaging under 20 likes each on posts about her books, so if I can be so honest I kind of have my doubts that her books are getting read even with the excessive use of generous lending policies

[ariaste]

Also her claim that authors are not getting paid per borrow is.... wrong. With ebooks (which is what she's talking about here with Libby) there are two forms of licensing for libraries to lend out ebooks.

The first kind is that they buy a license for a pre-determined amount of check-outs. I'll just make some numbers up for the sake of illustrating what that looks like: Let's say $20 for 20 borrows. When the ebook has been checked out 20 times, the library has to renew the license and pay more money in order to continue lending out the ebook. The author gets a cut of that $20 as their royalties.

The second kind is literally paying per borrow. (Again just making up numbers here) Let's say the library pays 50 cents every time the book is checked out. The author still gets a cut as their royalties. Is it just 10 or 20 cents per borrow? Yes, but that adds up! AND it means that people who otherwise wouldn't have been able to read my book at all are able to read it, which is great! AND it means that the library is thriving and being used, which is also great!

So yes, authors DO get paid from library activity!!!!!!

Do not feel guilty for using the library. I don't know one single author (except this Little Miss Ma'am in the screenshots, apparently) who would resent their readers for using libraries.

Is that man mansplaining

or are you misusing that phrase?

warning: i made this while annoyed and tired so feel free to correct it how you see fit

I have noticed a couple of people trying to use the word mansplaining to get trans men or trans masculine people to shut up about whatever topic it is they're discussing

and it made me realize that the word "mansplaining" has been bastardised into "a man that I dislike or disagree with talking about something"

that purple in the middle is not the right saturation, it doesn't fit with the other two colors and it drives me crazy.

It's almost over !! There are still a few hotspots being monitored, but the worst is behind us, and most people can go home.

I went to the movies to take my mind off things and celebrate. Spider-Man: Brand New Day, I'll keep spoilers to a minimum, but I need to get this off my chest.

It was… Disney-fied. A new Spider-Man movie with scenes that look like the video game, but overall, nothing new. I was happy to see Frank and smiled at times, but he isn't as dark as usual, which was to be expected. Michael Mando ? What Michael Mando ? Don't bother looking for him, he was teased for next to nothing, just like a lot of other things. The Hand… I'm not saying a word. I groaned and sighed in my seat. I thought we'd see or at least hear about certain characters, nope. We see ones I wasn't expecting, and I couldn't care less. It wasn't a bad movie. It wasn't the best Spider-Man movie, either. I'm worried about December. Don't stay for the post-credits scene, it's completely pointless.
