Welp, the race to the bottom often leaves the participants in a cesspool, so "be shit, take the hit"?

Florida censors ‘racism’ references out of college textbook | Column
A gutting of a collegiate sociology textbook that discusses racism and gender inequality.
“In the original version, trailblazer Shirley Chisholm was mentioned nine times when examining why it took this country nearly two centuries to elect a Black woman to Congress. In the new version, Chisholm is relegated to a single footnote.”

Never give up.
If you ever wish to gain some mild esteem for writing erotic novels about moon ghosts, or for collecting weird bones from the forest, I know you can do it.
I believe in you.

Grammarly Is Facing a Class Action Lawsuit Over Its AI ‘Expert Review’ Feature
The feature, which Grammarly shut down Wednesday, presented editing suggestions as if they came from established authors and academics—without their consent.
I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent.
State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes.

Fleurs et Flammes by Antonio Alessandria features carnations and lilies in a garden of a small village cemetery. You get the spicy flowers, the crisp greenery, the wax of the candles lit to honor those who passed away, and the traces of gunpowder from the fireworks from the night before. 💐🌿🪦🕯️🎆

Nature vs nurture is a myth.
Nurture the nature within.
Encourage children to grow antlers and a coat of moss.
Teach them of the old gods of thorns & fog.
Set them free in the old forest to become the monster they were meant to be.
