The reason people react aggressively to AI use isn’t bcuz we aren’t capable of having nuanced convos. It’s because you using AI is an act of aggression. There is no both sides here. You are stealing, funding billionaires who lobby against the greater good, and enable labor theft. Hope this helps.

As a fan of {my favourite property} I can easily say it’s a better version of {your favourite property}, in fact {your favourite property} is a rip off of {my favourite property}, which is made for ACTUAL ADULTS!!

As such, I am morally better for liking {my favourite property} and await my points.

You could spend tons of finite time & energy explaining to your child the perils of our impending dystopia or you can simply play Delton 3030 over and over again for them while taking frequent naps & get the same results.

Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

I simply don't have it in me anymore, to pretend to give a shit about the beatles.

Their music and lore™️ were such a big deal in my childhood home when a 'new' version of their records came out. But they're just fine. they're alright. they had some fun songs. can we move on?
that said i do really love it when some gen z girly says 'who's that' about the beatles and you immediately hear the faint rustling of an entire generation of old guys getting upset. we haven't had one of those crash outs in a while.

Hard not to consider the possibilty of grand conspiracy level bs being real when "release the customer list for the child SA slave island that we all already know exists" is getting this kind of reaction from everyone including government officals
"The Files probably aren't as bad as people think" is the more faith-based position at this point, given the behavior from relevant/implicated actors.

The reason people read “I like pancakes” as “he hates waffles” is a literacy problem! We stopped teach people how to sound out words and what those words mean and how those words work in conjunction with each other to communicate a whole thought. We taught people how to read based on vibes!

This is aging maddeningly well. How to sweep an election and then immidiatly make everyone hate you, a masterclass by the 'democratic' party. For the record, no one saying "I told you so" to the true believers is happy about it. We'd all much rather have a functioning democracy.
I think at this point, the democratic party is well and truly past the event horizon of the public ever counting on them again. they've had 8 months/~decade to find some principles and I think anyone who's no an insider or gone full cultist is an if-not-when of loosing faith completely

I've seen a people claim that d&d is GOOD for TTRPGs cause its how people find out about the hobby. As if a creativly stagnant oxygen sucker is actually enriching the hobby rather than making anyone not brand-brained completely disinterested in an entire medium cause everyone says it doesn't exist
Listening to people say D&D has no negative bearing on the indie creative space at large has me tweaking.

This is a creative monopoly unlike anything seen before or ever. I have a list of marketing outreach channels where 95 out of a 100 contacts exclusively cover D&D/OSR (D&D adjacent)...

Wanna hear a scary story?

The first American vampire was Black.

Seriously.

78 years before Dracula appeared in American literature, there was "The Black Vampyre" by Uriah D'Arcy.

It was written in 1819 as an antislavery critique and the effect the Haitian Revolution had on the States

When I was a kid/teen I wanted to get into comics. I utilized the library a lot for stuff like this. But unlike normal books, you are not safe as long as there is not a number higher than '1' on the spine. This lead to possibly the funniest comic reading experience a person can have:

I'm sitting here thinking about having a 15 daughter being chased down and abducted by masked men while the local police watch and let them carry her away to god-knows where w/zero accountability

we have to understand that girls are in severe danger of sexual violence from anonymous ICE goons

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

This is the most accurate depiction of the Midwest to date. Wichita has always felt like the last Midwest city while also being the first plains city.
