WHY the hell would you say "I'm a WRITER" but then use AI to do all the work?
"I'm an ARTIST" and then go post prints from a store?
"I'm a FOOTBALL PLAYER!" but then just post clips of other people actually playing?
If you're not doing the thing... then you're not doing the thing.

We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

I always say I’m never going to move. Or, in the alternative, I’m going to hire movers and let them do the heavy lifting. So then why do I find myself right in the middle of the worst part of moving?? And, spoiler, I’m doing most of the work. 😳🤨😩

I've lived in D.C. for the better part of two decades. Nearly my whole adult life. Something folks aren't talking about--a giant elephant in the room--is the amount of "brand protection" going on right now.
I don't mean fear of Trump or political persecution, although those can overlap.

In November of 2016, nearly 60 years after the paper was published internally, I had discovered the joke.
A few years later, I filed to have the paper declassified, and the NSA eventually agreed, and even put it up on their webpage:
