the rise of anti-AI sentiments

It's insulting to have a person you now send you a letter, text, or email generated with AI. It shows that they don't care about you, or what they have to say to you. But they expect you to read through the slop they serve you and have that respect for them... It's insane. They cant be bothered to write something to you but you're supposed to care enough to read through it all.

Apparently peacocks are insane and a menace. Also they can FLY, so essentially anyone with a peacock does not have a peacock. The peacock has them.

Processing and productivity apps

I'm trying to find another alternative to Evernote, since they've doubled the price of their services. I used to use it since 2012 or 2011 and I'm disappointed that all my content there is going to be scraped, gone, and possible inaccessible to me unless I manually move over each and every note one by one.

I'm not paying an arm and a leg for this subscription. I need to find something that allows for similar services...

People reccomend Notion, but that is just as pricy. I wonder if Apple Notes can at least hold on its own, since it's free. I'm hoping Apple Intelligence can run the same type of searches where it searches handwriting, pictures, and tags like Evernote did.

If someone has a better idea, please let me know. For now, I would want to use Tumblr as that sort of tool, but it's honestly better as a blogging platform, not at all as a productivity platform. It's a journal. I'm glad to have this space. But what about other needs? I need additional tools to keep myself organized. I may have to exclusively use the Apple ecosystem in order to get what I need.

Someone said “The slow burn of becoming yourself” and I think that might be one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard. It’s such a good reminder of how much it takes, how much character development, how much change, and beauty and courage it takes to reach your soul and I hope no one ever gives up on becoming themselves because it’s a never ending journey that only gets better.

Language is mobile and liable to change … a very large number of words have two or more pronunciations current … giving life and variety to language … it is a free country, and a man may call a vase a vawse, a vahse, a vaze, or a vase, as he pleases. And why should he not? We do not all think alike, walk alike, dress alike, write alike, or dine alike; why should we not use our liberty in speech also, so long as the purpose of speech, to be intelligible, and its grace, are not interfered with?
