Verisimilitude is it for me but those are old wounds from the edition wars.

I love Pierre.

Also like let's take it at face value. He's stupid enough to get the Nazi skull tattoo and then never notices for decades that it's a Nazi thing. Is that really a ringing endorsement?

Look Grant typos make sense we're all card sickos now

You're also apparently checking posts on bluesky, something you can't rebut as you just read this.

“He’s an impressive person, kind of a [former Sen. Joe] Manchin, [Sen. John] Fetterman type, in that kind of category,” Monahan said, referring to Democrats from West Virginia and Pennsylvania who tacked to the center and frequently butted heads with the party’s base. “The numbers I keep seeing out of it, I mean, this isn’t just his polls. The guy’s kicking ass.”

It includes this incredible endorsement.

I'm still convinced that Madam Web was an unrelated script that somebody turned into a Spider-Man minus Spider-Man movie.

Tucker Carlson has a script where he talks about the protocols with his stupid fake laugh and fake "you're not even allowed to ask questions" schtick that's been in drafts since he was at Fox news or I'll eat my shoes.

I think it's a noble goal but also you and me both will be seeing what Leon S Kennedy is up to heading back to Raccoon City which I think is also a noble goal.

Are wookies reverse hobbits?

I've been doing this, though much more slowly than you and I feel like it says a lot about A Murder of Quality is that it's about a Smiley who's left intelligence behind him.

And then he's immediately back in the game after that.

Ok that's probably good, I have a number of books out from the library I'd want to get wrapped up because there's a timer on how long I have them.

Oh shit that's out? I gotta make some time for it.

The phrasing feels very AI but when I worked tech support for telecom companies and people had a weird problem that didn't neatly fit into something we had a flow to troubleshoot and nobody else at the office had any idea what was causing it or how to fix it, that's basically what I had to do.

This implies I look twice and don't learn when my buddy points it out :V

I'd sign on with The Hawk of Light

My knee jerk is Ashurbanipal because you'll find cute ways to abbreviate it.

Oh I think this is the one where everyone has to fight a guy to save the earth in the ring and Ben wins because he won't give up.

Right, ok I knew it was one of the two

I forget is that one Bad Girl?

We have so much time to pick a guy who isn't going to have that problem! Why would we all need to be locked in on Gavin now!

I know it's covered in the episode but I truly did not see that new rules twist coming

Hey, don't mean to be annoying but the file for this episode in the free feed appears to be the one for episode 28. If this is something you already knew and are working on that fine I just figured it'd be better to be safe than sorry.

I was considering bumping it down in priority because there's a lot of good stuff this month.

Changed my mind.

I have no way to express the thoughts I'm having at the moment beyond "I wish I believed in hell"

Age verification? Buddy I used to watch anime by recording the Night Anime on a VHS tape with the TV off while I slept so my parents couldn't catch me staying up late.

Excellent alt text my friend.

That mapo tofu rice bowl sounds good as hell.

A.I. remains contentious in the romance community. A vocal contingent of readers oppose its use and are quick to call out suspected transgressions. Furor erupted on social media last year when two romance authors published works with A.I. prompts accidentally left in. “You’re an opportunist hack using a theft machine,” the fantasy writer Rebecca Crunden wrote in an expletive-laced message on Bluesky. Many readers seem to share her distaste, she said in an interview: “The comment I keep seeing is, ‘Why should we pay for something that you couldn’t be bothered to make?’” But without such obvious slip-ups, it can be hard to spot A.I.-generated romance. Amazon asks authors who use its Kindle self-publishing platform to disclose if they relied on A.I., but does not require writers to include any public disclaimers on their books.

Ms. Hart has become an A.I. evangelist. Through her author-coaching business, Plot Prose, she’s taught more than 1,600 people how to produce a novel with artificial intelligence, she said. She’s rolling out her proprietary A.I. writing program, which can generate a book based on an outline in less than an hour, and costs between $80 and $250 a month.

Would you believe that comes up in the article? And they DO NOT answer the question. Though the actual answer is that she runs a coaching service and is launching a bespoke romance writing AI program which is her actual business.
