I’m currently reading Klara and the Sun. I feel a bit mixed about it. It has some interesting elements but also some problematic (racist) descriptions that have been hard to get through.

Personally I feel that it's so restrictive to put children into binary boxes. They should grow and learn about who they are for themselves. Not have a doctor or a parent or anyone tell them "you are this gender".

I’m so excited for the new series but I don’t like the current owners of Paramount.

I’m currently reading This Is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El- Mohtar & Max Gladstone.

I really love it and it feels like I’m reading poetry.

I really loved The Last Jedi and how Rian tried to take it in a new direction. But the sequel series was honestly all over the place.

The Force Awakens was good but essentially a copy & paste of A New Hope. While Rise of Skywalker just did a 360 to change what The Last Jedi built upon and threw in Palpatine out of nowhere.

The original trilogy is the only one where all of them were good.

I'm not a fan of the AI image that's being used but I hope Starfleet Academy gets more seasons.

The comic is not “AI generated”. One of my friends reached out to the VFX supervisor for the show on Mastodon and they said the art department drew and colored it.

I think it’s also important for us to fact check things before assuming. I know “AI generated content” is being used a lot but there are designers and artists that are very much against its use.

Tap for spoilerI loved this episode a lot. Paul Giamatti & Holly Hunter really played off of each other very well. Seeing the Vulcan B’avi (I think that’s the name it said in the show) die and also mention Spock’s famous quote was heartbreaking but well done.

It’s awful seeing a game based on a bigots work being bestselling.

It just feels like a reminder that so many people don’t care about trans people at all because of “nostalgia” and not caring that Rowling benefits and hurts us.

sighs I’m sorry for that rant just sad/disappointed/angry to see this.

Lynn Conway! She's a trans woman who helped built one of the processors that modern computers use today.

Also Angelica Ross who has done great advocacy work and created Trans Tech which helps trans and gender nonconforming people with getting jobs in tech.

Not happy about the cat in terf outfit 😔
