I picked this book up because I watch Willow's Youtube channel sometimes. All but the last story fit the theme in my opinion.
Managing and Other Lies: A Queer Horror Collection by Willow Heath www.goodreads.com/book/show/21...
Reddit comment from comic writer Grant Morrison explaining why they use AI
Morrison invoking AI alike to "God" indicates a severe misunderstanding of how AI appropriates the work of thousands, including their own, and someone needs to rectify their understanding ASAP.
But also it's a severe disservice to their colleagues anyway to use it and justify it like this.
βSeparating art from the artist is a lazy and ignorant stance taken by people who believe thinking is just too much hard workβ

Me: "You can just say Sharpay. You don't have to add the HSM part. It's not exactly a common name, is it?"
Partner: "I had to make sure you wouldn't think she's one of those dogs that has too much skin."
