@marinda.bsky.social have you ever copy edited comic books or kids books with comic pannels or pages? I was curious how diffrent the process is.
I'm sitting here trying not to passively aggressively send this to people. 😅 preserving someone voice when editing someone else's work is not just important it's also basic politeness. Thead the whole #Thread.
I've struggled with editors in the past because they would make an arbitrary change in a way that changed my voice, and I'd have to say "I MEANT to write it that way!". I appreciate Marinda's approach here.
hey, cis folks—especially pennsylvanians—lemme ask you a question: would you use the window bathroom? what if your choice was “window bathroom” vs “bathroom where i get assaulted by boys for being a trans girl”? how would having that be your only choice affect your experience of school?
A school district in Pennsylvania approved nearly $9,000 ‘to cut windows into the ‘gender-identity’ student bathrooms so passerby can look inside’
These adults want to make it easier for other people to watch your children while they’re in the bathroom. It’s absolutely mind-boggling.
it's my daughter's birthday and I ordered her a monster cake from Carvel and this is the picture on the website and this is the picture of it in real life. please note: this is not a complaint. if this had been the picture on the website i would have paid more
You know what A.I will never give you? The feeling of buying beautiful art directly from actual artists! Do it! It's the best feeling. :)
