I post extremely rarely cause I'm just not that funny or interesting. I repost a lot though because art is my passion and I'm no good at it.

Marketing a free story is hard because it’s like “read my book! It has anti AI themes and a dungeon tentacle domme and a complex world and thisty MC who is doing her best! and share it please!“ and then when people share it you smile and when they don’t you’re out of ideas but here’s a link:

Let me just say: Fuckers.
Just now, a national trans healthcare felony ban for youth has passed the US House, with 10 year prison terms.
3 Dems crossed party lines to vote to jail providers.
4 GOP crossed party lines to vote against.
It is not expected to pass the Senate, where Dems hold filibuster power.
Story to come.

It was okay for me to say it then because I'm just telling you we can't say "I wish JK Rowling was gone".
I'm not actually saying it, just letting you know we can't.

Yet another example of what happens if we allow LLMs to become a form of epistemic grounding for society.
This is fucking grim. Somebody invented a white guy, an "IT professional" named Edward Crabtree, who stopped the Bondi shooting and spread it all over the internet, which was picked up by AI agents and slop aggregation sites.
