please pray for my best friend. She and her husband had their miracle baby after being told that they couldn't have children because of her past health issues, but now she's in the icu because of post partum pre-eclampsia.

Let us pray. 🙏

Hi, this is @jcniper-backup from my other account. Just wanted to say thanks for the follow but also what do you like most about worldbuilding? I love world building as well and would just love to fangirl about it tbh

Oh that's such a hard question. I think...creating species, because it has such a tumble-down effect. Like, once, I made giant fluffy foxes that lived in a continent-sized desert. My roommate (rightfully) pointed out that fluff wouldn't work with a desert environment, because they'd overheat.

So I made the desert cold, all the time. And the desert is constantly cold because there's a gigantic tree in the center of it that's spread out so far its shade reaches everywhere. Then I started making things the giant foxes prey on, and species related to it, and an animal that it has a rivalry with for prey. Everything led to making more adaptations and more animals until I had an entire ecosystem.

And THEN I put people in it. And I built their culture around it.

Reverse-engineering species is awesome.

AI chatbots lose money every time you use them. That’s a problem.. By Will Oremus at The Washington Post

Businesses are laying off writers because ChatGPT can do the job. What will those businesses do when AI companies stop giving away the product?
