    Oh hey I can post this now since it’s no longer spoilers

    This look has been roughly Maddy’s ensemble for most of Heartwood - a plaid flannel cutoff vest, crop top, and daisy dukes

    Maddy Gillespie, butch nonbinary transfem biker dyke supervillain, uses her telekinetic powers to fly over downtown Peterborough, Ontario, against the backdrop of Canada Day fireworks

    So, I’m thrilled at the response to this week’s chapter, but I was surprised at one thing: nobody’s commented on that Maddy can just telekinetically fly, now, and I’d hoped to set that up for some kind of reveal here

    this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

    Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me? Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.
