GenAI truly was the worst technology to come along at this moment.

An energy and water guzzler when we most urgently need to take climate action.

A disinformation machine as our journalism fails.

A bias machine as fascism takes root.

A job killer in a cost of living crisis.

Vash the Stampede, wings emerging all over his body. He is standing alone and topless, showing off the scars all over his body and his cybernetic arm. His face is covered by wings.

It's a little sad because they're reminded of who they lost, but it's not as dire as Homura makes things out to be.

#TimeTravelAuthors Oct 15: Excerpt with most.

The one who could most appreciate this sentiment was peering suspiciously at Homura. In this universe, Kyouko had claimed she didn't want to waste the space that Sayaka had left, and had started living her life the way Sayaka might have lived hers.

On the mobile, after navigating to a personal bsky, instead of tapping on a tag you need to long press/hold your finger on the tag until the below option pops up. I forgot how to do it in the browser.

Options after long press: See #TimeTravelAuthors posts OR See #TimeTravelAuthors posts by user OR Mute TimeTravelAuthors.
