niiiiice she replied right away on Discord. lol <3
hi!!!!
btw, to @everyone , @sansemusic.com is a hell of a cool musician & you should check her out!
Hey @sansemusic.com , do you check Discord much? I messaged you about a thing & I'm impatient & annoying. lmao
I made a new Suno song. I'm really happy with how it turned out! Please check it out! The lyrics were really fun to write, & I'm a little proud of this one. I think I'm gonna put this one up on streaming services & my YouTube soon. What do y'all think of it? Let me know! <3
some new lyrics:
God complex on a budget
I saw the line and I nudged it (Oops)
I saw the rules and I fudged it
I saw the slime and I trudged it
Painted my nails with the blood of a saint
Look at the canvas, look at the paint
You think I am but I know that I ain't
Pass out, wake up, pass out, faint
(btw! i really appreciate the tone you took here in your chain of replies! very thoughtful & sharing ideas without making assumptions & seeking clarifications. you get a gold star. lol β)
so yeah it was a screenshot of my post, which is worse, because you don't know where the source is. it was some dude with like 15k followers & they were calling forth the army. they did more than block, & they chased everyone who followed me, & it was a whole thing. it was brief, but intense.
ok so yea, i just said they blocked me, & i didn't tell the story, so i can see how it seems like i am anti-blocking. sorry. i think all your thoughts about blocking people are exactly right! it is healthy & it is how you make your own spaces.
....uh.. okay?
blocking is fine. blocking people & being blocked is part of how everyone finds their tribes. this was not people blocking to curate & make choices. this was blocking being weaponized to diminish people you disagree with. which is something i see regularly.
I mean, yeah, that is literally how I feel about it. Which is why I am still here. But I did have a stressful day of death threat DMs & shit like that. It is still a thing that people are doing that is a shitty behavior.
I see it all the time on here, but I am in a camp that is being targeted by that behavior. People who are not vulnerable are often not aware of their privilege.
But I must note, I never said X was an acceptable place. Your characterization of their behavior isn't even 1% of why I do not use X ever.
25k people blocked me in 24 hours because I made a chatbot. π
"I haven't experienced it, so it does not exist."
It does indeed seem like some of the plagiarism matches are matching articles about the post itself! I did not notice that! But not all of them are; just The Verge writing about ....well the OP here, actually! This got *very* meta!
You are my favorite poet, junie-bear. ahhahahah
People on Bluesky don't just scream "you suck!", they take up a crusade to inform the platform that you suck, & want to have you labeled as sucking, & want rules in place that sucking in the way you suck should be a capital offense, & tell you about all the sucking you do in reply to all your posts.

FedEx do be like that.
Photograph of a row of four townhouses with yellow lower levels and maroon upper levels, trimmed in white. Each unit has a small covered porch with white railings and steps leading up from the sidewalk. A black metal fence runs along the front, with green shrubs planted behind a stone retaining wall. A red car is parked on the street in the bottom right.
FedEx is the devil. They love to leave $1000+ electronics outside our garage door which immediately exits into a shared parking lot. The front of the house is not inaccessible in any way. I don't understand why on earth someone would do this. I think they're intentionally fucking with me now.
HARD disagree, my friend. ATProto can and should be the obvious infrastructure for building your own extremist echo chamber, if thatβs what you want to do. The beauty of the protocol is that they get to control their own space, while the rest of us retain the power to completely disconnect from it.

i think the founder is basically in love with me. he likes all my ideas A LOT, which feels really good! so i've been having fun making his product way more appealing & fun to play. I also convinced him that he needs to be on Bluesky! we had fun hunting for domain names a bit ago too! got a 5-letter!
I've been playing with TON a lot this past week, & exploring their dev communities. I kinda fell ass-backwards into being a consultant on a play-to-earn game that is in beta. rofl. i'm actually doing some game assets for them now, & i actually convinced them to rename the whole fucking game. xDD
fire. absolute fire. xDDD
wtf how did i even get here? i just woke up & i had a tab open for googleballs.com & i was following the @googleballs.com. idk, it's just like the network... needs everyone to see this, maybe? like as if we cannot stop it. it just is happening to us. and.... i... i kinda want it... π«¦πππ΄π’π΅π‘
Update thread on some project stuff - tl;dr the AI Opt-Out list is gone, alttext.symm.app is live again, & I'm okay...-ish. I hope you all are having a great day! I know I am! π
omg. you're posting my lyrics. lol. nobody is even gonna notice the meta here but me. π₯Ίππ»π
Current fascination, RE: AI Detectors vs. AI Humanizers:
I have an experimental stack running right now where Gemini is learning to be a humanizer. It is running some writing through Pangram, examining what triggers, editing, & iterating. I wonder how well this will work...
I'm having a really weird & dissociative type of day, how 'bout you?
