On the island we can meet a cyclops
When he sees us he will eat a guy
When he asks who stabbed him we'll say "No Man"
And he'll yell "Nobody destroyed my eye!"

oh hmm erm well this resonates boy howdy
I'm not sure which of you need to hear this, but:
If you push yourself to your limits and burn out for a company, you are trading years of your future productivity for minor gains in the present.
Burning out will _fuck you up_, it's like brain fog or depression, and it takes years to recover

So I am going to say something about romance as a genre.
A lot of people think that romance is ignorable because <insert thing they think about romance> and romance authors don't count because <insert thing they think about romance>.
This thread is not about whether you have to like romance.

Look, if you cite literature that doesn't exist, that is made up by AI, it's as bad as fraud. You're pretending to have read something, you haven't read. I cannot see why I should believe you on antyhing else.
