Fuck AI. AI sucks. I hate AI. I am an AI hater.

As y'all head off to #awp26, I am calculating our author royalties. I cannot stress this enough - buy small press books directly from publishers. It's the way everyone makes the most money and art can continue to happen!
Hopeful !
Biggest missed opportunity the world ever had.
Thousands and thousands of people across the country today are rooting for the Green Party to win.
It's so hopeful!

It's our final tease before the Preloved Stories issue launches on Saturday π¦
@tracierenee.bsky.social sets the table for more than just those in the home, as a way of letting go
@jdhellenwrites.bsky.social MC struggles to move forward in life, especially when the cheese is so good
You don't have to be young to spot large-scale intergenerational theft.
The tactical voting sites are saying it's between Greens and Reform, Grafters vs Grifters. #GortonAndDenton π³οΈ
Ancient artefacts, monuments and landscapes should not be in private hands. Heritage should be part of the commons, shared by everybody. 30% of England's land and its archaeology is held by a tiny cabal of aristocrats and gentry, descendants of the thugs who stole it. Isn't it time we took it back?
Just really disgusted by this. They decided to cut a completely legitimate gesture of solidarity, but leave a slur in. Wtf?
Of course the freeze peach warriors are all conspicuous for their silence.
Reform have nothing to offer but divisive hate. Blaming migrants and communities struggling to get by.
Hannah Spencer understands Manchester, she knows the value of work and will actually get things done.
Thursday - it's Greens Vs Reform. Hope Vs Hate.

I'm still a bit on the fence about that one.
Also: the cursif handwritten graffiti.

My brother knows Karl Marx.
If you're a Labour voter in #DentonAndGorton , and you want to stop Reform, you need to vote Green π
When I ran for leader, I said we're going to make the Labour Government more worried about losing seats to the Green Party - than to Reform.
We're making this happen in Gorton & Denton. This is about our country.
