Thank you for reaching out.

After careful consideration, we have decided to disable Expert Review while we reimagine how to make it more useful for customers and more respectful of the experts whose work it surfaces. The feature will be disabled starting March 12, 2026.

We're sorry, and we appreciate you holding us to a higher standard.

Grammarly's response to me preemptively opting out of their experts program. "Surfacing". Jesus Christ. At least they are stopping it.

Four years ago today, in the other place, here's us getting involved in a Twitter spat that......really DIDN'T escalate, at all.

Brilliant Brett!

Nothing more to say, so FWIW?... here's a link to a visually apt dub reggae remix version of Bowie's 'Golden Years'.

Comp title pitches = getting out of hand. I read one the other day that was like "The Old Testament meets Gravity's Rainbow mixed with War & Peace" and description was like "follows Crappy Do-Dah, who lives in a Brooklyn apartment peeing with the seat up as he slowly realizes cockroaches can talk."

Serious question: is anyone else just totally sick & tired of hearing about AI? I have no interest in it; in my world it has created more problems than solutions; and it's the enemy of imagination & creativity, the things I'm most invested in. I'm also tired of being told I'm a luddite for the above
