So you think Merlin the magician wasn't real? I guess that means you also don't believe that he still exists and walks amongst us? Then how do you explain this??? ;)

If you are lgbtqia, you belong and deserve love and happiness and everyone who thinks otherwise is a raging hunk of wet trash. I love you, Red Sonja loves you, Wonder Woman loves you, Batgirl loves you, and the X-Men love you.

I liked humans, I liked watching them on the entertainment feed, where they couldn’t interact with me. Where it was safe.

Best reason to do it, I’ll take that agreement, where do I sign? The generative side needs to be killed. And people who don’t want to do their jobs need to rediscover the joy of templates.

It’d be pretty cool if aspirational masculinity was just like. Being a gentle, funny dad and a loving partner and having jumper cables and a lug wrench on hand and maybe learning how to build and paint sets for school plays instead of being a sentient crypto ham hock with a creatine addiction

Ok, you find it funny or interesting why some centuries are "long" and others are "short" and why do historians use terms like "the Middle Ages" or "the Renaissance" but get cross about it all the time? And keep forbidding things like "the Dark Ages"? Isn't it weird? Well, no. 1/

i keep seeing people say that LLMs are good at search. NO. WRONG. You have just forgotten how good search used to be. Google broke it's own flagship product, and so you are accepting a demented chatbot's half baked gishgallop because we no longer have functional web search.

I saw someone say AI is useful because it generates ideas. My dude, I'm full of ideas. I have docs and docs marked under 'ideas.' I have outlines and fragments of stuff I might work on. Trunked stories galore. Even if I continue to write a novel a year for the next 40 years I won't run out of ideas.

It’s super cool being an author just trying to puncture the membrane of getting noticed, and yet a list of AI-generated recommendations of books that don’t even exist are taking up that space
