Boo fucking hoo. It's built on THEFT. "I don't know how I'd ask all those people or afford to pay for all their work." Then you DON'T GET TO HAVE IT. These would-be geniuses have convinced themselves that something in their miracle blah-blah machine is so inherently amazing rules don't apply.

I have just done the dishes after standing at the sink, swishing the water round in the bowl only to realise that there was no water because I'd got distracted and forgot to actually turn the tap on.

I have been to the shops. On the way I started to write a song. So far I have:

Everybody wants to be
A gorilla in the sea
Ripping arms and legs off
Every person that he meets

I think I might have a hit on my hands.

No surprise that one of the founders ran a "hybrid publishing" firm, the previous big book world scam. "We'll help you publish your novel, and it will only cost you a few thousand in fees!" He realized AI scams were about to make that scam obsolete, so he pivoted.

Bluesky has a setting where you can’t post until you’ve added alt text to your images. If you’re a forgetful person (like me!) it’s SUPER helpful to make sure you do it
hey new friends, please please use alt-text on your images and GIFs. it doesn’t have to be fancy, but the more descriptive you can be it helps. it takes practice if you’re not used to it, but it’s important and it gets easier the more you do it. 💗
