Ursula and Mur talk about Worldcon, and how great Ursula was, and how terrible Mur’s experience was. (Hint, after 6 years, COVID finally caught Mur.)

Then we talk censorship and what you can do if the overwhelming despair is threatening to consume you.

Mur and Ursula are fully supportive of LGBTQ+ folks, believe that Black Lives Matter, and trans rights are human rights, despite which direction the political winds blow.

And “AI” or large language models is wretched and we hate it so very much.
