I think it's a great idea, but like Laura, I don't know many writers in real life. For any Litopians who have active websites with decent traffic, an affiliate link might generate income, though.

I think that’s a real drawback, actually. How many other potential members do folk actually know? The deal would be, the person you introduced would get a discount too, so both parties would get something out of it.

It's a great idea and would take part...if only I actually had the right set of acquaintances.

Good you're back, Lex :)

Affiliate schemes can be used to sell almost anything – Amazon is probably one of the biggest examples in the world. Litopia now needs to get the word out and grow in order to be fully self-funding. We don’t charge untold thousands of...

That’s appalling, I’m so sorry. I believe that today’s young people have far more stress to contend with than we ever did at their age. Both self-harm and suicide cases among the young are rising in the UK, most probably elsewhere, too. It’s not...

So wonderful. Mahalo. Let's roll!

WOW. What a mammoth undertaking! 2nd what Jake said. You do so much for the colony, it's mad. Consistently coming up with new ways to help, new offerings. This one's huge. Thanks for all you do, @AgentPete !

A surprising number of people are pro-AI. Take a look on Reddit. Entire subs are devoted to training and using AI - be it writing, art, or code. Even subs not devoted to AI have been infiltrated. On the WordPress sub, every other post is about...

THIS! It's mind boggling. I just don't understand how it's gotten this far or how anyone is still in support of it, or supporting it by using it. I feel like this is the new street drug (peddled by big corp), and people are still refusing to...

Yes! Or writing a book, or painting or anything creative that requires thinking to create something meaningful. And... this is potentially the ground work for super AI, and who knows what fresh horrors that could bring. I mean if the machine...

Wow. Just wow. Horrifying. Maybe parents can get a class action suit against these self-serving, destructive companies. It's scary and sad that they've amassed so much power. It's certainly tapping into some unfortunate and desperate pitfalls...
