I do some writing, so am a fan of readers in general, but I'm largely put off by the way social media has become a tool for seeking attention from strangers.
Even 20 years ago it was more of a hangout.

The last few days I've seen post after post like, "I read 102 books in 2025. I'm going to double that in 2026!"
Why? I mean, aside from the "Look at me" of it all, why are people keeping track?

Forget author for a minute and just be a writer.
Frame a story in your head, maybe outline it, even loosely, and then write it. Repeat.
Writing is the chicken and the egg.

The neat thing about AI art is that it can't be copyrighted. You can just have it, use it, replicate it, sell it, profit off it, no attribution necessary.
That could not be said for the same shot from a real camera of a real boat in a real fog.

At 16, I got a tattoo from fellow high schooler with a homemade tattoo rig. It looks like a jacked up letter P (not my intention).
I still have it, and it's clearly visible for anyone to see my mistake, but 40 years on, I'm not that same kid.
We all do stupid shit. Some learn, some don't.

BTW, this replaced a dishwasher we bought in 2012, probably a Whirlpool. I'd fixed it a couple times, but it was time for a replacement.

We got a new dishwasher this year, a Bosche 500 series from Costco ($1200) and the very first wash blew my mind. I did not know a dishwasher could get dishes that clean.
My 35+ year old coffee mug with the permanent brown stain - white. Stainless pans - sparkly like in commercial.
