We need to talk about the amount of fic writers being accused of using AI and why y'all need to fucking cut it out.

AI is trained off of actual writers. "You write like AI." No. AI writes like them.

Not all fic writers have English as their first language. They are writing fanfiction in their second, third, fourth, etc. language. Do you know how hard that is? Do you know how ridiculous the English language is?

I see people say that certain stylistic choices automatically mean AI. Wrong. WRONG. People were using these styles before AI.

If I see people claim that em dashes are an automatic tell for AI one more time I'm going to fucking scream. People have been using them for a LONG time. And you know why AI uses it? BECAUSE IT WAS TRAINED OFF THE WORKS OF ACTUAL PEOPLE

I am so adamantly anti-generative AI but people need to stop immediately jumping to the conclusion that fic writers are using AI because of tiny little things. (And don't tell me you ran it through an AI checker because those things are bullshit. I've seen friends run their old high school papers through those and it came up 100% AI when that's literally fucking impossible.)

God forbid people enjoy writing as a hobby and they don't write like they're going to be published tomorrow. Knock it off.

Droodles by Roger Price (from his 1953 book). Droodles (a blend of “doodle”, “drawing”, “riddle”) are simple drawings with a witty, often absurd, caption. The first one, as some of you may know, was used by Frank Zappa for his 1982 album, Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch. (Zappa, a fan of Price's work, lived just a few miles from the artist and personally sought permission to use the image.)

These come from the 1972 edition of the book.

I think that the Hamilton musical is objectively the funniest thing that could happen to that man's memory. Imagine dying of a gunshot wound infection in 1804 and learning from the afterlife that tweenage girls in 2017 are drawing thousands upon thousands of images of you making out with your fellow congressmen because someone wrote a 2-hour rap opera about you. I like to imagine that Hamilton found a monkey's paw and wished to leave a legacy, and this is what it did to him.
