God being off Twitter for so long made me forget how petty stormchasers are about supposed "content theft".

Inject the comment section directly into my veins.

Unfortunately past effort and serotonin are far more important than having good values for some people.

3 years since a Nazi bought Twitter and 1 year since that purchase helped elect Trump. That's enough time to realize that posting on Bluesky is better than posting on Twitter, even if it means a temporary (or even permanent) hit to total engagement numbers.

Idk if I've ever known anyone personally who started a business and didn't eventually turn into an absolute menace because of it.

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 2d

the former seems more interesting

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 2d

Ok cool. I wasn't even commenting on you specifically yet you still presumptively went after my throat.

I've never been on SM for engagement reasons, personal or business, so I'm guessing that's probably why I don't understand how Bsky is worse than the other platforms in that regard. Jesus fuck.....

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 2d

I-

what?

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 2d

I still don't fully understand how it's any worse than like............Threads, Nazi Central, or AIbook. Instagram maybe. Then again **engagement** has never been my reason for existing on SM so I probably just don't get it.

Or maybe the flashmob is what's making the song insufferable.

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 5d

Why do flashmobs always pick the most insufferable songs

And not like "I'm secretly observing your brain and patterns" small talk, I think we had a whole 20min conversation about movies in the second session.

Sean Stelten @wxstelten.bsky.social · 5d

One who admitted to having come out of retirement because she was bored at home. Both sessions I went to with her she kept steering the conversation back to basically small talk the entire time, and after the second one she basically all but said "I don't think you need therapy".

I don't remember what class it was for or what the writing assignment was about, but I forgot about some sort of writing assignment that had to be uploaded to Blackboard at 11pm until an hour before it was due and got it uploaded with less than 30sec to spare and got an A-. I am AI.

I scrapped and rewrote a 2000 word history paper with eleven sources and four properly cited images at 3AM before a 9AM that I had to drive 45 minutes to.

I got a perfect score and I am genuinely not exaggerating when I say I do not think the professor ever knew.

AI could absolutely never.

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

Kinda feels unsurprising that the practice she was a part of now also owns and rents out an event space. Because there's nothing I want more than my therapist's practice to split their focus between me and tacky-ass weddings.
