Yin Yu started to smile, and cupped Quan Yizhen’s face in his hands, while looking deep into his shidi’s eyes.

“Aiya, you're all grown up now, when did you become this handsome?”

From chapter 24 of "This Jade Refuses To Be a Throwaway Brick"

While defending the luddite argument in Discord, I stumbled into this IMO succinct explanation for opposing generative AI:

At every step in the process, it impoverishes us.

AI impoverishes us at every step of the process:
- data centers pollute our environment
- energy use drives up costs
- content theft robs creators of income
- the actual output is used to displace workers and depress wages
- using it harms our mental health and impairs our competence
- the flood of AI slop is damaging our sociopolitical landscape

All in service of making a worse product - and world - to enrich a handful of already spectacularly wealthy people

Old Soviet joke for today:

A man walks into a newsstand every day, looks around, and leaves.

After a long time of this, the owner says “Can I help you find something?”

“I’m looking for the obituaries.”

“The obituaries are in the back of the newspaper, comrade.”

“Not the one I’m looking for.”

Two au ras with the same face are facing each other, one is a paladin and the other is a dark knight, his Esteem. The paladin is hurt and slumped against the side of a lit fireplace, holding his side, which is bleeding. The dark knight is kneeling between the paladin's legs, cupping his face gently with a pitiful expression. Resting on the other side of the fireplace are the paladin's sword and shield.

If Shixiong promises not to run, Quan Yizhen will most definitely put him down!

Unfriendly reminder that the free fan material (art, writing etc) you find on the internet doesn't necessarily need to cater TO YOU. Scroll past and shut the fuck up. If you want to see something, pay for it or make it yourself. My patience is running out

Yes!! I think Quan Yizhen must've felt very alone in the mountain too so he is very happy for the company!!
Please do spam me it makes me so happy that you want to know more 💕💕
Hmmm I think in this one there are many mythological figures, like dragons, tigers and bird spirits! Who become deities!

Thank you so much!!! Your comment means a lot 💕

Afonya @afonya9.bsky.social · Jul 29

I'd imagine he'd be a bit sad about being so forgotten - in line with the canon. However, he can't be lonely and forgotten anymore when a certain tiger visits him so often for tea!!
Thank you for the good question!!💕 Please feel free to ask more if you'd like! I have a comic & a drawing coming up 💛💜

Afonya @afonya9.bsky.social · Jul 29

Oooh thank you for the good question!!! 💕 I was thinking he might live in a forgotten temple up on the mountain! I imagine him to be a deity for the people living around the mountain but as time passes, he is slowly being forgotten by the people, but he still does his duty of protecting them!
