STOP PUTTING YOUR WORK INTO AI 'DETECTORS' YOU ACHIEVE NOTHING EXCEPT TRAINING AN LLM ON WHAT YOUR ACTUAL, HUMAN WRITING LOOKS LIKE YOU KNOW IF YOU WROTE IT, YES? SO WHY ARE YOU TESTING IT? "oh I just wanted to see how accurate it-" WHO CARES HOW ACCURATE IT IS UNLESS YOU'RE PLANNING TO USE ONE?

I am, at any moment, about 30 seconds away from getting really into making and using puppets.

Cannot sleep because my brain is very busy solving Big Walk puzzles. However! These are not real Big Walk puzzles it is solving; these are made up versions it has also created. These solutions mean nothing and will not be helpful in the future.

My favorite genre of @secretsleepoversociety.com stream is the “job sim with weird/spooky shit happening” when Julia absolutely cannot be bothered with the nonsense and just does her job.

This is all because I was gearing up to really push streaming and content creation once I finish the Achewillow season, isn’t it?

This is why I can’t afford a house, but honestly? Worth it.

The endless ads for the color 3D printer are exhausting. "Can you believe this was printed?!" Yes, I can. It looks like the FigurePrint of my WoW character I got 15+ years ago. Sure, it's cool, but it's not "unbelievable."

There is a housefly in the room. Brie would desperately like to catch and eat the housefly. However, she is not content to catch it when it lands within easy reach on the windowsill. No, no. She only wants to snatch it out of the air. Which thus far has not gone particularly well.

This is terrible news.

Catching up on some Warhammer+. Watching Kill Lupercal and am absolutely delighted by how many of the princeps are older women. A cosplay is in my future for certain.

Amaury Guichon made a chocolate Dobby. So that’s a fucking bummer.

Got my teeth cleaned. Made my implant consult appointment for October. Just gotta figure out how to pay for them.

By virtue of the Achewillow book being published, I find myself suddenly a member of the horror writer community. I have decided that instead of letting my imposter syndrome take hold, I will instead prove* that I belong. *To myself. Everyone in the community has been delightful and welcoming.

I often see people suggesting different media or fandoms for Harry Potter fans to get into instead, but I won't be doing that, because quite frankly those fandoms would probably be better off without people who are still into Harry Potter, and I for one won't be holding the door open for them.

I thought I was enjoying a little fresh evening air on the porch, but apparently I was actually stepping into a major hummingbird turf war.

Brie is angrily watching a goldfinch eat seeds out of the sunflower in the front garden, absolutely seething that she is not allowed to be a scourge on the local ecosystem.

I’m going to stream this. I watched someone else play and it is just the most @achewillow.bsky.social coded game I’ve ever seen.

Creature Kitchen, the creepy-cozy cooking simulator where you befriend local wildlife and feed them their favorite snacks, is part of the Wholesome Games Celebration on Steam now through August 13! "The witching hour has only begun."

I have given myself a deadline for a project that has been in the planning phase for literal years. I keep putting it off because it is extremely important to me and I want it to be good. It’s also a gift, so that adds all that extra pressure.

this print is making me feel a little weepy

Still mad about this, by the way.

When you hear a false equivalency so bad that your brain doesn’t process it at the time, so instead it wakes you up at 2am so you can be mad all over again.

Just finished @tkingfisher.com’s Wolf Worm. So, if anyone needs me, I’ll be picking at my skin for the foreseeable future.

I am deeply concerned that Michael’s is trying to become too many things and is doing none of them particularly well.

Hey gang, let's go for a walk. Join me and the boys over at www.twitch.tv/daniora while we take a Big Walk.

Stream tonight? Sure, why not? Stay tuned.

Brie wishes to sing you the song of her people.

Trying to decide if the quilt pattern I’m trying to follow was written by a person who doesn’t sew many quilts or if they used AI to do it. Because no reasonable human would do it the way it’s written.

Having a real "disappear into the woods" kind of day. Except it's too hot.

If my tomatoes ever ripen, I’m going to be inundated
