So for anyone thinking of #writing #NaNoWriMo this year --
or promoting it --
or hosting a writing event --
etc etc --
It is of vital importance for you to know that NaNoWriMo has the UNMITIGATED GALL to claim that, and I quote, "We also want to be clear in our belief that the categorical condemnation of Artificial Intelligence has classist and ableist undertones, and that questions around the use of AI tie to questions around privilege."
tl;dr FUCK NANOWRIMO.
"We got booze," Kornel said as he stared at the man. "I s'pose it's robust enough. Got harder things if you want them, but I'm not responsible for anything that happens-"
"The hardest thing you have," the man interrupted with a look that Kornel knew well.
He reached under the counter and pulled out The Bottle.
"Gotta add a surcharge," Kornel said as he uncorked it.
"Surcharge?"
"You get it back if I don't gotta pull you out of the side-ditch in the morning." Kornel said as he poured.
The man slowly nodded.
Kornel always kept the fee.

A Florida school district has banned a Japanese boy's love manga despite the series having no explicit content. And you won't believe what "wholesome" titles they recommend replacing it with. A look at the insanity as well as the state of LGBTQ manga in Japan in our latest.
Aline dug through drawer after drawer, procuring and discarding spoon after spoon. Not a single one was quite what she was looking for.
The recipe was calling for a spoonful, after all, and surely a bigger spoon would make the end result more potent.
She needed the end result as strong as it could get, for reasons she would only mumble about.
Two spoonfuls would be cheating, so she just needed one big spoon...
Like the cast iron one near the hearth!
Aline grabbed for it and held it up, grinning.
She'd soon have the prettiest scales of all!

I don't usually make these posts, but thought I'd share the news.
I have an instance called autistics.life. It's a mastodon server for autistic and neurodivergent people.
We have a wholesome autistic/neurodivergent vibe, and we just upgraded to a 10,000 character limit.
My business pays for the hosting and it's a stable income. I'll never ask you for money to keep the server online, so it's free for you to use.
Domain registration was recently renewed for an additional 3 years. December will be 2 years this instance has been online. The host has also been in business since 2013 (11 years). It's a stable server and not going anywhere.
Check out the about page if you want to:

Wynn opened the back door to head out to the chicken coop but stopped short. There, sleeping huddled under the overhang was a demon clad only in the remains of a canvas sack.
He would have thought her human, but her horns gave her away, rising dark through pale hair.
Wynn knew he'd have to turn her in, but she hadn't even taken the blanket from porch rail-
He sighed and draped it over her, causing her to stir.
"I can only do so much," he said. He scratched at the stump from one of his own cut horns. "For now, I hope you like omelettes."
Bethkari looked from the faded inventory pages in her hand to the carved stone figure nestled in a little wood box.
"Unknown idol figure, blue stone with gold flecks," she said aloud before reaching to touch it.
"Unknown," she repeated with a laugh before running her hand down the figure's front and uttering a few words in a tongue far older than box or inventory.
Beneath her hand, the figure stirred and changed, becoming far more than gold-flecked stone.
Bethkari smiled. It had all been worth it.
"They just didn't know how to wake you up."

Rock Hard: 1977 - look at this game! It has plectrums! And a Marshall Amp player board with twiddly knobs that go up to 11! And little plastic characters! How awesome is this?! 😁
And even more awesome, it's designed by Jackie Fox, formerly of The Runaways (yes, the legendary pioneering 70s all-girl rock band) so you can't get more authentic than that!
I can't wait to play it! #boardgames #music #ClassicRock 😁🤘

What I like most about being an adult, apart from being able to have ice cream for breakfast if I want, is I can and will play the same tune over and over if the fancy takes me.l, which it often does.
Ok, the crushing, slow car crash realisation of my existence in a corporate machine does impede a bit, but for a few moments I'm free to do the fuck what I want.
Enjoy whatever it is you enjoy.
Enjoy the fuck out of it.

Overview of different Chinese versions of MDZS: https://www.reddit.com/r/MoDaoZuShi/comments/y30zsh/overview_of_the_different_chinese_versions/
Oh, Logan. Of course I remember Logan. How could I forget him? Good kid, didn't mean to be a troublemaker but he sure did have an itch for adventure.
He was good at breaking up fights and never turned in a late assignment. Not even after that day he got stuck in the ditch pipe under Bottsy Lane there.
Heard he got an apprenticeship and, wait-
Why do you ask?
His first granddaughter, huh? I bet she'll be a lot of fun.
Well, he didn't have a big family and I didn't have any-
Me? A guardian spirit? Oh, I think I can do that.
Where do I sign?

Regarding #Brazil banning #X :
After the disaster of the Weimar Republic, the Federal Republic of #Germany came up with the concept of the "Wehrhafte Demokratie" - a "democracy that can defend itself". Fundamental to this concept is that people, groups, and organizations who want to overthrow the basic democratic order should _not_ get a "level playing field".
So while I can understand people worried about any kind of #censorship , I think by this standard this action is justifiable. Brazil went through an attempted coup, and X - and Elon #Musk - were instrumental in aiding the coupists.
And by now Elon Musk has established a clear pattern of "wanting to overthrow the democratic order" - _any_ democratic order. Thus, it is valid if Brazil wants to restrict his speech.
I see this as part of the "Paradox of Tolerance" - tolerating the intolerant will result in less tolerance. And tolerance, like freedom of speech, are social contracts. If you break the social contract - as Elon Musk has - then there should be consequences.
