Tired of socmed, but here's to hoping. Find me on AO3 @ shinyglorchan to slog through 22 years of my writing. (Oof, I feel old all of a sudden.)

I’m glad so many people have found my “capybara method” for how to write alt text and image descriptions helpful! However, I know conflicting access needs exist and not everyone can write their own #AltText, so here’s an ongoing thread of tools that can help. Inclusion in thread ≠ endorsement

Thank you for making the time tonight.
While the snow outside is falling,
and as the smell of cake fills the room,
and the wine glass is still warm to the touch...
Here's to the winter night, to this moment, and to every brilliant day that lies ahead.

I'd argue an AI first draft is *worse* than a blank page.
It's starting with something barfed by the machine, so it will influence you, perhaps in ways you'll never even sense, but it will be there.
When you start with an actual blank page, the mess is still *you*.

Just a thing about this: a common statement in writing is that you can fix crap, but you can't fix a blank page.
I have heard AI apologists claim that this is why it's fine to generate a first draft.
Now, to be clear, fuck this.
But also: an AI draft is a fucking blank page.

I know I don’t talk about writing much. It is because I am writing so slowly.
But I want you to know that I am taking a part of this story that absolutely sucked and took me months to produce four of the worst chapters I have ever written and in the edit I figured out how to fix it.

Hi, not everything you don’t like is AI and I need you to have better media and social literacy than that. Be a real hater and know your enemy.

Regular reminder that the majority of the people who dreamed up the stories you love are, like, BROKE broke, and that most of the money spent on their work was given to Some Guy™️ instead.

i think if you use genai for anything, even writing an email, you're both a moron and a huge baby, and i dont want to play your video game as a result. its not that hard!
As the backlash to generative AI in video games continues to pick up steam heading into 2026, it'll be fascinating to see what is considered "made with generative AI." Can a dev team say they're not using AI if they're writing design docs with Copilot or using chatGPT to make schedules and budgets?

they didn't need AI to make Silksong, it just needed some deeply insane guys to have a blank check for living expenses until their next thing was done, I think we should try doing more of that instead
