Kim Davis going from "my religious beliefs demand that I don't facilitate a same-sex marriages" to "my religious beliefs demand that there are NO same-sex marriages anywhere" *should* make Democrats realize there is no "sincere" compromise with bigots on trans issues.

Could we maybe just acknowledge that people do things differently and there doesn't have to be a Most Correct Way to do everything?

There are a lot of people on there who just want free ARCs, and in order to keep getting them from publishers, they have to have a certain percentage of books reviewed. It's awful, to put it mildly.

Update: I've been so confused about the part where it said Addie's mom didn't recognize her upon their return to Villon, so I googled it, and it's a random detail from VE Schwab's The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. This is all a bunch of gross plot sausage ground up and spit out by the machine.

aaaand now it's lying about another one of my books, which is NOT SET IN MAINE. At this point I decided to stop wasting water but I can only imagine how much weirder this could have gotten.

"Where is Vilmon in this book?"
Chatgpt says the book "does not mention a place called Villon" but it's possible it's a setting for one of my other books like The Wide Starlight, which "is set in a coastal town in Maine."
I was curious about this Villon place, which is brand new information to me

A long paragraph with vague themes and the words "upon their return to Villon"

A chatgpt prompt where I ask about the significance of square dancing in my book The Depths, and it hallucinates an answer about Addie square dancing with her late mother.

Oof, I'm so sorry, it is the absolute worst. I highly recommend borrowing a knee scooter if you can find one (the council on aging in my town lends them out). Being able to move while using your hands is hugely helpful.

J.K. Rowling uses 'Harry Potter' wealth to fund anti-transgender organization
This is where "Harry Potter" profits are going.
Do not give this woman a dime of your money.
1. Do not watch the new show.
2. Do not stream any of the movies (yes, that includes Fantastic Beasts)
3. Do not buy any of her books. She has a pen name Robert Galbraith.
