god this joke about people who profit from NOT funding cancer research fucking just punched me in the gut because it literally aired 30 YEARS AGO [Duckman: Private Dick/Family Man]

if you're using AI to make your videos why the fuck would i watch your videos? and i'm not even saying that from an anti-AI standpoint (although yes fuck AI), i'm saying it from a "there are 2350820 other channels also putting out generic-ass personalityless drivel i could watch instead" standpoint

it is baffling to me that for 15-20 years we have known that authenticity sells and now everyone including small video creators are farming out their production process to the generic-ass-robot-output production machine just absolutely self defeating nonsense behavior

I just heard someone describe Black Sabbath's "Into The Void" as white people reggae (lovingly) and my mind has been fucking blown, I will never be able to listen to that song the same way again (lovingly)

Yes, it's the zeroth rule of writing advice: if advice works for you, then it's good advice for you, but if advice doesn't work for you, then it's bad advice for you. Sounds like a tautology, but people will fight you to the death on Reddit if you reject one of their unbreakable rules.

“You’re a huge fan of Lord of the Rings, how come you don’t like Palantir?” “You’re a huge fan of 1984, how come you don’t like the surveillance state?” “You’re a huge fan of Fahrenheit 451, how come you don’t like ritual book burnings?”

Every now and then someone takes a run at me along the lines of "I don't understand why you, a scifi writer, don't appreciate 'AI'," and I'm all, motherfucker, it's *because* I'm a science fiction writer I have the positions I have, how many times do we have to fucking yell "torment nexus," my dude

Being a fan of cartoons (defined loosely here as "non-Japanese animated character-driven stories", because anime is kind of a whole different ballpark) is so frustrating because it means you're constantly fighting both sides on whether or not cartoons should be serious or not. I hate it here.

the way society has treated cartoons is so weird. it's like if everyone thought surrealist art was only for children and it also always has to be funny
