I'm enjoying this Substack. Helps me feel like I'm doing something. May be kidding myself.

Remember to update Better Off Read in your podcast app (since it's no longer on Substack). The latest one with Rachael O'Neill is really good. They're all good.

There's this wild Lovecraftian horror to a grown adult talking about how great it'll be when AI can make full-length movies and books based on a few prompts, because you suddenly realize they've only ever seen shadows dancing on the cave wall for their whole life. Nothing has meant anything to them.

Re-upping this coz it got a few ppl thinking last time round. Plus it's a reminder how our 'one nation' myth is based on wilful amnesia, lies and plain delusion.

There’s a very real effort to rewrite NZs early COVID experience. Let’s make sure the enquiry don’t just hear from those who’ve fallen for disinformation!

This is great analysis by Josh. I just want to add that Seymour is using “conspiracy theory” & “conspiracy theorist” deliberately when countering Forbes: he’s trading on the association that such theories/theorists are clearly implausible in order to make reasonable questions seem irrational

Wonderful celebration today of Renée and her gusto and her open hearted encouragement and her honesty. I’ll always have her voice in my head when I start dithering around: ‘stop fucking about and write’ ❤️‍🔥🎉

My latest newsletter is about how to put a stop to all the review-bombing on Goodreads. Those fake one-star reviews hurt marginalized authors disproportionately and they shouldn't hold so much power. Plus I explain why I like Goodreads and why I find it so useful.
