Sign the Petition

Let Readers Read: An Open Letter to the Publishers in Hachette v. Internet Archive:

Please sign this petition. Almost all of the 500k books that they removed are actually no longer in print and inaccessible to many.

The publishers did not care about those books in the first place but they did this anyway because they have vendetta against open access.

stumbled across some of my printer opinions that i don't recall writing but am correct about

For those not in the know, this is one of the Amanita mushrooms referred to as a Destroying Angel. Never, ever, ever, ever forage with an app. Especially for mushrooms.

One day when AI is finally regulated, those regulations will be written in blood

We're currently in the "unregulated wild west cuz no one has died yet" era

[yeomanrand]

The Amanita mushrooms, destroying angel included, are a horrible way to die. Particularly because, like rabies, when you first show symptoms you're already dead.

But that's not what makes Amanita Ocreata and it's relatives awful.

With rabies there is no reprieve: you are sick and get sicker until you die. With these mushrooms, though, you will be sick for a while, and then suddenly you will feel like it has passed, and you are on the mend.

This is a lie. You are about to return to groaning intestinal pain, slip into a coma, and die. Because during that "reprieve" period, as Kingfisher & Wombat note, the active toxin in the mushroom is destroying your liver.

Only forage with a reliable guide, never an app, and if you're not sure don't pick and eat it!

#oh thats what he meant by wine-dark sea

[gemsofgreece]

This is an aesthetic post (and gorgeous) but I saw this and I was reminded how foreign readers found it more probable that Ancient Greeks were all colour blind than that Homer meant the shade the sea takes during a vibrant dusk.

Artists who know how to draw armors or very detailed clothing are powerful

[usurperss]

oh to draw embroidery like Alexander Roslin does

See it’s stuff like this that makes me believe that selling your soul to the devil in exchange for talent was a real career track in the 1700s.

Do you know where your boops are coming from?

[calypsolemon]

Dungeon meshi really hits the nail on the head when it comes to the halfoots being infantalized. People in the manga talk as though the infantalization is simple misunderstanding; halflings are small and look young to most people, so they're assumed to be children. But this explaination doesn't make sense based on what we actually know. Halflings are regularly regarded as disposable labor, often to the point of being used as bait for monsters. This is not the way one would treat a child, but it IS the way one would treat an animal, or property. Halflings are infantalized because their labor and their lives are useful to other races, and imagining them as a helpless and naive lesser people is an easy-to-swallow justification for their dehumanization.
