"You cannot conceive, nor can I, the appalling strangeness of the mercy of God." But who, more than you, deserves to die for the horrors you have unleashed? For would it really be mercy to spare the monster who would let mutants suffer? Or is mercy found in ending you and sparing us instead? Alas, this is what higher powers are for. But allow me to grant you this, brother… You may not be a mutant, but you are very much your parents' son.

I feel so insane about ai. I've had face-to-face conversations with people who use it for therapy, who use it to calculate the safety of pill interactions, who use it for all their emails and grant applications and legal documents and academic papers and finance sheets and for every single question they have about the world, and if you tell them about the ecological costs they just laugh and say "I guess I've used a lot of water." and I've been in multiple gatherings of 10+ people where I'm THE ONLY PERSON who doesn't use chatgpt. it's turning me into a ranting raving pariah, because how don't you people see??? why don't you understand??????? this bullshit didn't exist five years ago, you absolutely do not need it, and it is destroying everything

my friend just had an art show and they were communicating with the gallerist over email. They could clearly tell that the gallerist was using AI to respond to their emails, but just rolled their eyes and moved on.

and then on the day of the show, my friend asks, "where is the camera I requested?"

gallerist: "you didn't request a camera"

my friend: "I did, and you confirmed that you would have one here."

gallerist: "that isn't true."

and then she proceeded to pull up the email thread, and my friend could see that every single email they had sent had been summarized by AI, and that the gallerist had then had AI write a response to them based on the AI summary, and that the AI had detected that they needed a camera, and confirmed on behalf of the gallerist that they would bring a camera, but because the gallerist had offloaded the work of actually reading and responding, she simply hadn't actually made any note of it herself, therefore didn't bring it, nor did she even know one was needed.

so my friend had done all of this communication about their needs and expectations to be able to make the show possible, and the person whose job it was to read that information and get it done had simply.... not read the information and not done it. because AI.

had such a great time at comic con especially seeing the new buckaroos trotting out their debut horror novels. i wanted to highlight THREE NEW NIGHTFIRE AUTHORS with horror novels to preorder, DEENA HELM, TAYLOR GROTHE and MATHILDA ZELLER. here are their books:

OUR CUT OF SALT by DEENA HELM 'three generations of palestinian women must put the haunting of their ancestral home to rest, before the secrets of the past drown them all'

LETHAL KISS by TAYLOR GROTHE 'a blood-soaked love story of rage, revenge, and belonging, Taylor Grothe's adult debut is a sapphic horror/romance that's as grotesque as it is beautiful.'

IT LOOKS LIKE YOU IN THE DARK by MATHILDA ZELLER 'it looks like you in the dark is a propulsive indigenous horror debut, expertly blending alaskan native folklore and supernatural thrills, from the author of the acclaimed short story "kushtuka"

as i have said many times before PREORDERS MATTER BUCKAROOS. i appreciate how many times you have all supported me. if you have the means, here are some great up and comers to support as well. LOVE IS REAL

Are you asexual and do you own a waffle maker?

I am asexual and don’t own a waffle maker

I am asexual and do own a waffle maker

I am not asexual and don’t own a waffle maker

I am not asexual and do own a waffle maker

Voting ended on1h

This poll was inspired by the previously reblogged post (OP @teaboot) It is objectively silly but I want to see what, if any, correlation there is between being asexual and owning or not owning a waffle maker. And I’m not saying being asexual is why I don’t have a waffle maker, correlation isn’t causation, blah, blah, but also, this is funny.
