I will enthusiastically champion puppets, costumes, miniatures, stop-motion animation, matte paintings, and other heightened effects that have all the visible smudges and fingerprints of a passionate craftsperson over any attempt at realism, any day of the week.

Wherever possible please buy your books directly from authors and/or publishers. Even ebooks (then Amazon can't delete them either). We make a better cut and you get the same thing or better, plus Bezos and ilk don't get richer. Win win win.

No, I don't need a bloody copilot for this document, thank you. Writing is, in no small part, a tool for thinking. If you outsource that element to a machine that cannot think, you shouldn't be surprised if, at the end of the process, neither you nor your reader are any the wiser.

I've built a machine that can be Confidently Wrong. It can also make pictures that all look a bit the same, as well as make a video of you kissing any celebrity or person you know. In payment, I'd like to boil the world's oceans dry, & steal all literature. For some reason, my head is not on a spike

Because there's an obvious point - it would be much much easier to keep the earth habitable or make it more habitable than it is than any other planet and we're also not doing that

a mistake a lot of people make when they go on a christmas adventure is learning the true meaning of christmas. if you don't learn it you get to go on another christmas adventure the next year, you basically just keep getting free christmas adventures as long as you don't learn anything.

Almost all "How to use ChatGPT in the classroom!" advice I see starts with the premise that it doesn't matter if students learn anything or demonstrate any skills in a course.

This is what's so baffling about so many suggestions for AI in the humanities classroom: they mistake the product for the point. Writing outlines and essays is important not because you need to make outlines and essays but because that's how you learn to think with/through complex ideas.

I don't believe in Big Foot, because he never believed in me. I remember looking out into the audience at my ballet recitals and always seeing that one empty seat.

Additional scripts for cis het white men who want to be better allies: “What a weird thing to say” “Do you hear yourself right now?” “You shouldn’t say shit like that to people” “I won’t let you talk to them that way” “That’s a disgusting opinion to have” “Shut the fuck up, dude”

I was watching the new crowbcat video on the Dead Rising remake, and the comments just made me sad. It just feels like, with video games, there's this general opinion that 'new games SUCK now, everything's WOKE', which I think is a shame because there are so many modern games that DON'T suck!
