i know everyone loves baby seals, but sometimes i really am blown away by their whimsy. they took a teddy bear and made it a mermaid. i feel very wonderful knowing we live on the same planet as puppy mermaid teddies

I like how looking for this post on your blog makes it look like you spent 3 hours checking whether or not apples are a type of fruit

This spiny-backed orb weaver crop top came to me in a dream and I had to make her real. Approximately 6474847 errors were made in the cropping and painting of this shirt. I am okay with it.

Reblog if you will never. Ever. Use AI in your writing.

To the people who say: "But I need to ask Chat GPT / Claude / [whatever, idk] to help me brainstorm, and get past the blank page!"

Here's some suggestions:

One: Ask one of your friends, instead. If they're also working on a story, you can return the favor.

That's how J.R.R. Tolkien made friends with C.S. Lewis. That's how Mary Shelly wrote Frankenstein (yes, she wrote it based on a dream, but she and her friends were all stuck in a rainy summer writing stories together).

Two: Call your grandma, and ask her for an idea. I'm sure she'd love to hear from you when it's not a holiday or her birthday.

Even if she gives you an idea that you know is all wrong, the reasons why it's wrong that spring to mind immediately, will help you figure out what's right.

Three: (if you don't have a grandma to give you wrong answers) Personify that Inner Critic in your head, and write down all the things it says about how your story is stupid. Then, write down your answers arguing back about why your story is a good idea.

At least the page won't be blank, anymore. And you can recycle your Inner Critic and make it into your story's villain.

There is zero reason on this, Our Earth, to ever use a plagiarism machine.

Period.

Partially quoted tag:

#this post makes me ashamed to admit that I *did* use ChatGPT to help me [... ... ... ...] once

Okay.

Take the energy of that feeling, and channel it into writing your next draft.

I also want to amend my "Call your Grandma!" suggestion. Maybe she'll give you the perfect idea. For all you know, she could be a member of the first generation to write Kirk/Spock fanfic, back when it was distributed by the postal service.
