I know that James Workshop needs to sell plastic to the mothers of young teens, but Infernal Enraptures should have an entire orchestra that plays as the 3rd Legion explores each other's bodies

This irks me to no end. Most STEM roles don't need geniuses. Once you pass a threshold of competence, everything comes down to how well do you write proposals/documentation and how pleasant are you to work with?

I recently read a book about punishment in 16th century Nuremberg and was struck by the consensus of the day that, barring extraordinary circumstances, imprisonment of longer than 2 weeks was inhumane. Breaking on the wheel was fine though.

I remain disappointed that the scene between Ufthak and Dhaemira have no AO3 presence, especially after the dungeon scene.

If there is a backlash, my money is on it being due to the lack of safety practices. I saw an article yesterday that said ChatGPT alone deals with a million discussions of suicidal ideation EACH WEEK

These conversations are always weird for me. Everything about how these models were trained and deployed is incredibly unethical. And they enrich and empower some of the worst people in the world.
BUT from a research perspective they are fascinating. In another world they could do a lot of good.

I'm not so sure. He doesn't strike me as the fall-on-the-sword type so if let's blame fall on himself, I think that's indicative of it being his least-bad option

And I think he has reached the limit of this gambit. The house is away until the 17th and the CR they passed expires on the 19th. It seems to me that if the house isn't back by then, all of the blame shifts to him
