Dune for me - it's bad sociology ~and~ bad ecology! even the sexy parts are bad! - and o god Starship Troopers. Everything Heinlein's ever written tbph 👀
But I really like the book American Psycho, as a long-form "get a load of this fuggin guy, he's THE WORST"
I'd be very interested in your fisk!
Made candy tonight, and kinda fucked it up a little bit because I was rushing. But next time it will be perfect
Tho now I have a tummyache. Because the process of making candy involves tasting throughout... and then afterwards, helping get rid of the ones that are falling apart... 👀👅
i haven't bought anything at target since 2024 and you know what it was easy as hell for me, chilis is gonna be even easier

"But the plans were on display…”
“On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.”
“That’s the display department.”
“With a flashlight.”
“Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.”
“So had the stairs.”
“But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?”
“Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.
The ships hung in the air in much the same way that bricks don't
This must be how the kid from The Jaunt felt. "Longer than you think, Dad! Longer than you think!" Death isn't the worst thing that can happen to you.
If you're ready to go to bed and you'd prefer to lay awake all night with a feeling of unease lodged in your gut, read this, if you haven't. It takes fifteen minutes but stays with you forever, appropriately enough. archive.org/stream/the-j...
Okay, fanfic writers, your ride is here: A SHIP-SHIPPING SHIP SHIPPING SHIPS.
Alt for the image in the quoted post: photo of George Lucas standing, arms folded and wearing a tired expression.
"I should work on my fanfiction" is bullshit; there is no "should" in the fanarts; I am doing this for fun, for free, and can do whatever I want forever in the make-believe playtime realm
that said, the Scenario is all I can think about, and that will to continue to be true until I get it out of me
I'm so disappointed when I see really cool artwork in a post and go to share it l, only to realise it doesn't have alt-text. Because then I don't share it. And I want to share cool art with people. Please add alt-text to any images you post. You can even enable in-app reminders to help you remember.
I do not care if the LLM generates "good writing"
Because it was trained on stolen work
Writers deserve credit for their work; thieving asshole content scrapers and the computer programs they create to displace writers deserve none. Less than none. They deserve scorn. Opprobrium. PUNISHMENT. HATE
Okayy but The Amazing Digital Circus is so fucking good??
I've been dawdling on catching up, because when I've caught up there'll be no more episodes to watch until they make more... but I'm staring at the "1 more episode to go" "play next" button and. I think we doin it
Addendum:
In many respects, I am not physically okay with it
i need a tv series of amateur-sleuths where every protagonist decides to solve the crimes theyve uncovered and is murdered at the end of that episode: 10 episodes, 10 dead detective wannabes who relied on blind luck to see them through. dumb asses.

I’m not a big curling guy, but I get the significance of this, and WOW it’s mind-blowing. Some are calling it the best shot in curling history! #TeamCanada at the #ParalympicGames.

not my favorite thing to wake up and see what new horrors people i did not elect are using my tax dollars to do
wearing my women in stem t-shirt on international women’s day to celebrate the fact that i was given that and a reusable water bottle instead of equal pay
The Kombucha Lady meme Top, doesn't like: Trans troops being forced out of the military ... Bottom, reconsidering: ... before WW3 starts
I stand by this gag, tho

I am a better storyteller than the vast majority of white dudes who currently make millions telling stories. The sad thing is, so are the majority of minority storytellers you are not and will never hear from in the mainstream.
UBI, down with capitalism and racism and colonialism.
I am not psychologically ready to be a nonsmoker, even though I am more or less physically okay with it at this point
Smoked my last cigarette (again) (until next time🥺🤞) last night. And now I would like another cigarette.
Alas, inhaling burning tobacco into the lungs is bad for my health. And I value that now, it turns out! Being old kinda fucking sucks!
Withdrawals this time around ain't so bad

7 March 1942 | A French Jewish girl, Claudine Ruben, was born in Paris.
She arrived at #Auschwitz on 20 July 1943 in a transport of 1,000 Jews deported from Drancy. She was among the 440 people murdered after selection in a gas chamber.
This reminds me of something Toni Morrison wrote.
LLMs generate text based on a corpus; they do not actually experience the world, or possess any of the underlying architecture needed to ~have experiences~ by which they might define "the self" of which they might be conscious
They're just trained on human language, therefore mimic human expression
