Since I'm going to start using this account again I guess I should do a proper introduction. I'm an artist and writer from Alberta, Canada. I'm married/poly with two cats and a vague cluster of boyfriends. I'm mentally ill but very skilled at it. I am really tall. So, yeah. Howdy and welcome.
Hot take: Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails is mediocre and a pale imitation of the original.

I love how "terminal insomnia" makes it sound like you're going to die from lack of sleep but actually it just means you have trouble staying asleep.
Good title for a horror story.

The far right has sufficiently destablized the idea of democracy to the point where if Alberta does have a referndum, the results won't actually matter and the province will eventually become disputed land sitting on a LOT of oil. This isn't going to be a safe place to be much longer.

I feel like this has been a year of becoming acutely aware that my brain is not a standard model and is running the wrong software. I miss social cues. I say inappropriate things without intending. I make people around me uncomfortable.

Good news in a sea of grief. I'm gonna grab on to this one like a life preserver today.

I dreamt there was a very popular video game called "Fascism and Beauty" where you wander through this huge complex that was like a casino, but none of the games were for money. They were just shitty little casual games, like word games or card games. (1/2)

Removed Facebook from my phone because I realized I was just doom scrolling through a sea of ads and AI and it was not great for my mental health.
Haven't left entirely yet, we'll see.

My partner and I (2/4th of SNW) are both trans and attempting to leave the US (I’m also an Arab immigrant). It’s extremely expensive, so please consider buying our game/leaving it a review so that we have some sort of income when we inevitably have to make the jump and start over. Thank you.

Quick question: can you point to a single instance in history where an oil-rich region declared independence from its mother country without things ending in armed conflict? #alberta

I'm pretty sure folks know I'm pretty strongly #antiAI but I like to keep an eye on it. Last year I tried putting the first 1/3 of one of my stories into GPT-4 to see what it would generate for the rest of the story. It failed pretty miserably. Big tonal and style shift. Plot went haywire.... 🧵
