Remember when Spider-Man 2 for PS5 came out and people realized the NPCs on the street all had dialogue with each other that you could eavesdrop on and then players in. A. SPIDER-MAN. Game. Took time out of swinging above the city just to follow people around on the street and listen to them? 🤔
The worst part as a writer is, like, NPC dialogue and barks and incidental text is the most fun stuff to write but takes the most time in terms of billable hours and has the least amount of screen-time, so for a corpo it just 'makes sense' to have an LLM pump it out

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

Signed up for an acting class. First class was last night. Was a fun time! According to the instructor, out of the class, I'd get a callback and left the biggest impression. So I'm feeling good right now! 😄

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but if you’re doomscrolling right now for no reason and you’re ignoring a good book you’ve been reading, you can just stop doomscrolling and read the book instead.
