As Ray contemplates whether the future she’s been working toward is truly the right one for her, Laurie is learning how to overcome rejection after rejection in his musical career. The pair grow closer after Laurie invites Ray to an open mic night with his friends. As a weekly reprieve, she visits Marigold’s Bakery, where the pastries possess spells to help manifest desired emotions or outcomes Ray always chooses “romance.” It is there she meets barista Laurie, the owner’s nephew and an aspiring musician. Despite the frustrating limitations of her gift, Ray studies at the Council Academy, hoping to join the Grand Council of Sorcerers. Unlike traditional seers, Ray can only see a person’s present, not their future.

Characters appear to be white.Ī seer (with limitations) experiences first love as she tries to navigate her future. The resolution offers hope that both characters will continue to heal. In the midst of this intense atmosphere, Lou and Bea develop a moving bond and deep trust that allow Bea to open up to Lou. Background characters whose eyes are hidden add to the rising sense of anxiety throughout the story. Complex panel layouts in dark tones and moody reds often bleed together, and stretches of silent art fit the heaviness of the tone. The unpredictable, shifting landscape in which lakes appear and roads change course encapsulates the treacherous and nonlinear path of healing. Walden ( On a Sunbeam, 2018, etc.) crafts a story rich in metaphor about two gay women on a journey through trauma and grief. However, the dark and foreboding Office of Road Inquiry pursues them in search of the cat in their possession. Together, they embark on a road trip to Lou’s great-aunt’s house in San Angelo and then to return a lost cat to a mysterious town called West. They share the same need to get away from all the people they know.

Alessandro Acquisti, Idris Adjerid, Rebecca Balebako, Laura Brandimarte, Lorrie Faith Cranor, Saranga Komanduri, Pedro Giovanni Leon, Norman Sadeh, Florian Schaub, Manya Sleeper, Yang Wang, and Shomir Wilson.Our findings can inform future smart speaker designs in particular we recommend better integrating privacy controls into smart speaker interaction. Finally, current smart speaker privacy controls are rarely used, as they are not well-aligned with users' needs. Privacy tensions arise between primary, secondary, and incidental users of smart speakers. Users trade privacy for convenience with different levels of deliberation and privacy resignation. In contrast, users express few privacy concerns, but their rationalizations indicate an incomplete understanding of privacy risks, a complicated trust relationship with speaker companies, and a reliance on the socio-technical context in which smart speakers reside. We found that many non-users did not see the utility of smart speakers or did not trust speaker companies. We conducted a diary study and interviews with seventeen smart speaker users and interviews with seventeen non-users. We studied people's reasons for and against adopting smart speakers, their privacy perceptions and concerns, and their privacy-seeking behaviors around smart speakers. Smart speakers with voice assistants, like Amazon Echo and Google Home, provide benefits and convenience but also raise privacy concerns due to their continuously listening microphones.
