“Sorry Dad. Gotta hang up. Missile alert here.“
“Sorry Dad. Gotta hang up. Missile alert here.“
And who am I to complain? Jerusalem got off easy, just one missile alert in middle of night. Tel Aviv had 6. Afterwards kids supposed to go to school on zoom, interrupted by alerts and explosions.
Routine of war in Netanyahu’s Israel.
All clear. 1:25 a.m.
Now I will just switch off adrenaline, fall smoothly asleep till the next missile, leap up again and so forth, and tomorrow get up shower eat and sit down clearheaded to write.

Bother!!
Some more thoughts:
Using AI in this way detracts from your ability to learn the craft of #writing. Writing is not just about the end result. It’s about the process of learning how to write and revise.
It’s like using training wheels forever (great metaphor by the great @raqueledits.bsky.social!).
Thank you!

That serious accounts with large following are engaged in the BS is depressing. Also dangerous.

Damn.
Last year when I was checking into a hotel, the desk person was wearing Meta glasses. I kindly asked them to take them off. They were annoyed. I said, “I do not consent to you looking at my credit card and ID with Meta glasses on.” My instincts were correct: www.bbc.com/news/article...
