Like I don’t dig a trend toward witch hunts, toward picking out every em dash and “not X but Y”, that shit sucks. But also, people should be ashamed to admit to using this technology in writing. It should be something done in cringing secret, in terror of being found out

Suzan the chalant goth@sillysyntax.bsky.social · 10h ago

I am logged on for 2 hours to say I am appalled by what I read in the HWA newsletter. There are AI witch hunts ongoing where writers are being accused of using that garbage tech with no evidence. Telling ppl who use AI proudly to get out is not gatekeeping. Call out the writers and companies.

Aside from OMNISCIENT READER'S VIEWPOINT, which I continue to love, I think my read of the week was the BL manga MONSTER AND GHOST by Himemiko.

A couple of weeks ago I rode to Newburyport MA and saw this COVID memorial and realized this is the only one I have ever seen anywhere. And the fact that I nearly broke down seeing it is something I still think about.

I kind of love it when a villain isn't redeemed at the end of a story

Hi, this. It's a grift. The AI-detection software is not accurate or reliable. We know this. And yet. AND YET.

Bree (half of Kit Rocha)@mostlybree.kitrocha.com · yesterday

I'm just gonna say: it somewhat baffles me that people who are understandably skeptical of opaque LLMs as legitimate sources of information will suddenly go full on "the computer KNOWS" when they are using opaque tools to "detect" AI. The computer does not know.

Opening commissions for these types of chibis! (comes with basic background) For: $6 for singles / $12 for couples DM me here for inquires :D

Countries keep telling us to start our own businesses. It makes their unemployment figures look so much better. Then they wade in and fuck over all small businesses, time and time again, to punish us for working for ourselves instead of selling our labour to make someone else richer. Every time.

Oni@onidraws.bsky.social · yesterday

I'm seeing small businesses shutting down shipping to the EU due to the PPWR so now I don't know if I can even sell to the EU because of this and the US because of the new tariffs laws. Basically I'm screwed and I might just perish at that point.

Wait, people don't know this? Yeah. It doesn't auto-save unless you save to cloud. I hate this timeline. Share to save someone many tears from lost work.

Heather Burns@heatherburnstech.bsky.social · yesterday

The most terrifying enshittification I've discovered has been learning that Microsoft Word documents no longer auto-save if you are not saving them to one of their own proprietary cloud services. I'm slapping control-S like it's 1999.

My house has never been on fire. I subsidize the fire department for all the people whose houses have been on fire. I do not regret this in the slightest. I don't want to sit and do nothing while other people's homes burn. And if my house DOES catch fire, I'll be damn glad the fire dept exists.

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
