I don’t think “Lola” is transphobic but I do think Weird Al’s “Yoda” is racist towards Yoda’s species

I'm a fiction writer. Here's how editing works.
If you are under contract with a publishing house, their editor will mark up your manuscript for you to review. For each individual edit you can accept it, question it, or reject it with "stet".
If you self-publish and use an editor, it should work the same way. The editor suggests things, you accept them or ask for clarity or stet them.
If you self-publish and use AI to edit, AI will rewrite you depending on your prompt. If you cut and paste AI's corrections into your story, that is AI writing.
If you use AI to generate words--any words--you are not writing. You are prompting. I don't recommend doing this. Writers write.
Being edited doesn't absolve you of any responsibility for your work.

This is hilarious bc editors can already reject pieces for any reason they want. They can reject it bc the title annoys them. They can reject it bc you misspelled a word. Rejecting it bc it sounds inhuman is one of the more legitimate reasons to reject something
Brecht De Poortere@brecht_dp
I think we're entering very dangerous territory here, with editors trying to second guess the use of AI and rejecting pieces on that basis, without authors ever knowing...

We should occupy DC instead of doing another fruitless No Kings 3 parade
Adam Johnson@adamjohnsonCHI
No Kings is planning 3000-events on 3/28 and its 1700-word press release makes zero mention of Iran, only opaque mentions of “illegal wars” (which ones?) I like many of the orgs involved but what’s the utility of these generic “anti-authoritarian” word salads at this moment

i never really get why people accuse anyone that engages with a film critically of hating movies because like, i love movies! that's why i think it's worth thinking seriously about them and why i want them to be good and get more from them than "i guess i had fun" lol

This is why many disabled people are rightly concerned about Assisted Dying. If AD is funded and available but a wheelchair ramp isn’t, what does that say about the attitudes towards disabled people?
Spin Decoders@leith1076
"Gauthier, who has been trying to get a wheelchair ramp installed at her home for the past five years, testified on Thursday that a caseworker told her that they could give her assisted dying, even offering to supply the MAID equipment for her." ctvnews.ca/politics/artic…

Once again and this is going to be a daily reminder now is not the time to fly to America, lay over in America, fly through American airspace, or fly on American owned airlines.
