Hello Mr. Gaiman,
For context, my brother and I live in a place where the LGBTQIA+ community is seen as weird and not generally embraced by those who fall under the umbrella. My brother is not homophobic himself, but his colleagues are certainly... passionate... individuals about their thoughts, and to be honest I was worried he may one day be influenced to say the same homophobic things.
I remember watching the finale of Gomens S2 and being violently shocked, positively. Said brother came into the room to see if I was alright, saw me and slowly sat down next to me. I rewatched S1 and S2 with him and he absolutely loves the show.
My brother realised after watching the show that being gay and/or being part of the community is not something that should be oppressed or made fun of. Now, every time one of his colleagues says something disgusting, he makes sure to educate them.
The show means a lot to me, and it now means a lot to him as well. Thank you from the whole of my being.
That means the world to me.

i think the reason why the assassination of Julius Caesar is one of the funniest political assassinations is for this very simple reason:
1 guy stabs 1 guy: not funny. that's murder.
2 guys stab 1 guy: even less funny. that's two against one.
60 guys stab 1 guy: uproariously funny. why do you need so many guys.

So a free tool called GLAZE has been developed that allows artists to cloak their artwork so it can't be mimicked by AI art tools.
AI art bros are big mad about it.

Gee, I thought these people were the ones who were like “If you don’t like it, you can just move to a blue state.”
And now they’re mad the guy is doing just that?
You can’t oppress and discriminate against someone then be mad when they take their highly useful skill elsewhere.

Pro-writing tip: if your story doesn't need a number, don't put a fucking number in it.
Nothing, I mean nothing, activates reader pedantry like a number.
I have seen it a thousand times in writing workshops. People just can't resist nitpicking a number. For example, "This scifi story takes place 200 years in the future and they have faster than light travel because it's plot convenient," will immediately drag every armchair scientist out of the woodwork to say why there's no way that technology would exist in only 200 years.
Dates, ages, math, spans of time, I don't know what it is but the second a specific number shows up, your reader is thinking, and they're thinking critically but it's about whether that information is correct. They are now doing the math and have gone off drawing conclusions and getting distracted from your story or worse, putting it down entirely because umm, that sword could not have existed in that Medieval year, or this character couldn't be this old because it means they were an infant when this other story event happened that they're supposed to know about, or these two events now overlap in the timeline, or... etc etc etc.
Unless you are 1000% certain that a specific number is adding to your narrative, and you know rock-solid, backwards and forwards that the information attached to that number is correct and consistent throughout the entire story, do yourself a favor, and don't bring that evil down upon your head.
