.@kathrynfiona: “It’s hard to square my two beliefs: that the internet is the future (or honestly, the present) of creativity and culture, but also that it’s causing active damage to my mental health and I’d be happier without it.” Subscribe:

kelsey weekman @kelsaywhat

everything @getembedded publishes is good. i genuinely look forward to seeing what they send out every day, and often times it legitimately HAUNTS me (like this one in particular)

If you had one tweet, one opportunity to seize the take you really wanted, would you embed it, or just let it slip? https://t.co/oZ4TrrDGYU

Tyler McCall @eiffeltyler

Every time I see an entire story written around a viral Tweet or TikTok or whatever, one single tear slides down my face, and @kathrynfiona does a great job explaining the problem here:

Raechel Anne Jolie @reblgrrlraechel

"I tweet out of the same impulse that saw me start a LiveJournal in middle school, the same reason I write, ...read novels&watch movies: a burning impulse & desire to share my inner world with other people and understand their inner worlds as well." love this/ditto @aliciakennedy

melissadowell @MelissaDoesWell

I've been thinking a lot lately about crowd-sourced rating systems that companies rely on more and more for their platforms these days, and what it means for those being rated & those doing the reviews. This is a good article explaining some of the issues.

You've just published your first novel and a Goodreads reviewer writes that it has "vertically no redeeming features." WYD? The authors @chelseagsummers, @lindsaydevon, and @RVoronaCote weigh in. https://t.co/aK1UZZbJd8

This @kathrynfiona critique of Deux Moi was so needed

For five years, a Facebook group claimed to be a safe space for women writers to find job opportunities. What started with a Fox News listing earlier this month ended with a scorned administrator cutting all 30,000 members off. https://t.co/JRPsEiOwbz
