When we write or draw porn or erotica, we get banned from having a bank account and our livelihoods get seized even if we give it away for free.

When billionaires steal what we've written or drawn to churn out a slop-approximate of porn, they're allowed to charge for it.

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Transness is not bourgeois. This is a wedge idea dreamed up by some gleefully amoral think tank lobotomite to split trans people and make us fight each other. That we relay on modern medicine doesn't make us any more bourgeois than someone who needs antidepressants or cleft palate repair.

I have something important to give you. A power beyond measure: I never found its limits. It opens countless doors, to limitless worlds. Thousands have died to it, I am one of them.

Cover of "Game of Life" by Rob MacWolf & Alex Vance.
Cover art by Alector.
A Handsome Cheetahman is looking all shirtless at the viewer, on the right. On the left, sideways, are four smaller scenes, radiating from him like petals: in the bottom, he is standing in a keyhole shaped portal, under a starry sky and an unknown planet, around which is light forming the shape of an eye. Next up, he's facing a glowing mushroom cloud, his spots are glowing. Above that is a tree, on which he's sitting, etched into the bark are the words "This is the story of how I die." At the top is a semi-abstract sculpture of a tree, in metal, behind which are visible words such as 'Unchastity" "Selfishness" "Banditry" "Vagrancy" among others.

In 2004, Parisian police were conducting a training exercise in the french catacombs and found, after moving past a desk and a tape playing audio of snarling dogs, a fully functional movie theater and bar. When they returned 3 days later, the equipment was gone, with a note: “Do not try to find us.”

Members of the force's sports squad, responsible
- among other tasks - for policing the 170 miles of tunnels, caves, galleries and catacombs that underlie large parts of Paris, stumbled on the complex while on a training exercise beneath the Palais de Chaillot, across the Seine from the Eiffel Tower.
After entering the network through a drain next to the Trocadero, the officers came across a tarpaulin marked: Building site, No access.
Behind that, a tunnel held a desk and a closed-circuit TV camera set to automatically record images of anyone passing. The mechanism also triggered a tape of dogs barking, "clearly designed to frighten people off," the spokesman said.
Further along, the tunnel opened into a vast 400 sq metre cave some 18m underground, "like an underground amphitheatre, with terraces cut into the rock and chairs".

There the police found a full-sized cinema screen, projection equipment, and tapes of a wide variety of films, including 1950s film noir classics and more recent thrillers. None of the films were banned or even offensive, the spokesman said.
A smaller cave next door had been turned into an informal restaurant and bar. "There were bottles of whisky and other spirits behind a bar, tables and chairs, a pressure-cooker for making couscous," the spokesman said.
"The whole thing ran off a professionally installed electricity system and there were at least three phone lines down there."
Three days later, when the police returned accompanied by experts from the French electricity board to see where the power was coming from, the phone and electricity lines had been cut and a note was lying in the middle of the floor: "Do not," it said, "try to find us."

If I were Asterion I would simply find a seam between two rocks in the valley and clip through them. The resulting CoC warp would drop me directly into Aphrodite’s harem, which for some reason is the center of the Olympus zone.

I entirely agree. At this rate they won't reach the low bar of Troy (2004). Hector or Odysseus' armor looked pretty good back then (we don't talk about Achilles).

If you haven’t read The Transitive Properties of Cheese yet, it is adorable.

The new Gretchen Felker-Martin, Black Flame, was horrifying and delightful, a great spooky read. Maybe technically not fantasy, but definitely magical.

A tiny rock hyrax scooted across the sand of ancient South Africa, and that moment was preserved in stone.

His smile drips with blood. Most werewolves drop out of school when the change hits, but Joon promised his halmoni he’d make it as a doctor. And not just any doctor. A surgeon.

Did you know werewolf saliva is a natural antiseptic?

This one’s good to close.
