You know nothing about me, and yet you open your stupid mouth as if you do.

Food is one of the equalizers in life. We all need it. SHUT THE FUCK UP AND FEED PEOPLE should be the battle cry of literally everyone bent towards human rights and justice.

I used to be an activist in the splashy organizer sense, but for the last 7 years or so, I've done food justice work. By this I mean: I cook for organizations that give food to anybody who wants it. No questions asked. No need for religion. No need for political affiliation. Just feeding anyone.

I *think* (because I can't really fathom) people use gen AI because they think the real reward of the work is publication and fame. Poor fools. Publication is a minor event in the life of a book. Fame is fleeting if there at all for most writers. You're missing out on the good stuff.

Being a writer has enriched my life in so many intangible ways. It's not just the writing. It's the research, the struggling in community to finish your work, the literal dreaming about your characters, and so much more. Generative AI robs you of so much, even more than the authors it steals from.

Idk. Maybe life is just a mirrored hall of people looking down on each other from varied perspectives.

I mean, there's probably plenty of reasons people think I'm stupid, but many boil down to the fact that I am just a fucking idealist. I named myself a name that means "defender of mankind." I believe in inherent goodness.

It’s way over my head, but I guess one of the ways you can identify AI music is that it embodies no one space, even an imagined one.
