"you can use ai to improve spelling and grammar"

[purgaytorysupremacy]

if you’re wondering why spellcheck and grammar check is worse now, it’s because they replaced it with AI! 🥰

now, instead of maintaining a comprehensive, nuanced, and human-maintained encyclopedia by which to check your document, they have switched to an AI that just compares what you’ve written to what other people write in, say, Google Docs, and use the most commonly used iteration.

ever have it change something like “all intents and purposes” to “all intensive purposes” or “should’ve” to “should of”? that’s why!

people make the same spelling and grammar mistakes so often, AI thinks that’s the way you say it because it is a PATTERN DETECTOR and cannot THINK let alone use language.

LIBRARY WRAPPED

You checked out... probably some stuff? Thanks for doing that :)

Used our wifi maybe? For something?

Look we actually don't know what genres you read or how many times you renewed Gender Queer.

We don't want to know.

Our gift to you is privacy.

Take it.

Be free.

you have to stay alive. you're going to be such a beautiful middle aged freak. young freaks will see you in the street and know that things can be okay.

I was 22 when I got my first bookstore job, and at the time my entire experience of "old people" was my grandparents, none of whom had been particularly healthy, and none of whom I was close with. To my young eyes, all they did was sit around and be old. That was life after 60.

The owner of the bookstore was this grand old dame of 76 who had been in the business for 40 years. She'd had three kids with a husband who was extremely gay, and as soon as those were old enough, they split up. She read on an epic scale, was an avid follower of the opera, sang in several choirs, and scheduled arts programming for a private club. She had gentleman callers (so they styled themselves) at the store continuously the entire fifteen years I worked there--yah, into her NINETIES. She never took up seriously with any of them, because they couldn't keep up. She was impeccably dressed and put together every single day of her life, drank regularly, and said they would pry her estrogen supplements out of her cold, dead hands. She had a gang of elderly single lady friends, though, and they went out every night of the week. They knew everything and everyone, collectively. She got her first smart phone in her mid-80s and became extremely Online. I bet she's on Tumblr now. She is 96.

This blew my mind. Life didn't have to be over...ever.

We worship youth in our culture. Only the young have futures, and the aged exist to enable the lives of the young. We act as if by the time you hit forty, you've had your chance. You are now expected to step aside and scede life to others.

FUCK THAT. I have a lot of life ahead of me. I have places to go and books to read and people to fuck and food to eat and music to dance to and emotions to feel and nazis to punch and stories to tell and hearts to break and ventures to capitalize and empires to conquer. I am going to be doing this for the next fifty years, minimum.

Life has so much in it. Do it all, forever.

[weaponizedvirtue]

My grandmother, in her nineties now, is just like that wildcat queen mentioned here. She plays bridge and mahjong with friends, walks her dogs and other friends' dogs every single day, has visited multiple countries over the years, lost her husband over thirty years ago and has left quite a few men wanting in her insistence to be independent. She's always encouraging me to go to political marches when I'm unhappy, to write my senators when I disagree with their decisions, and to travel wherever and whenever I can.

I'm aiming for that. For that kind of neverending resilience even in my elder years. That's success to me. Living full.

[kurokoros]

Happy Anons? Well, try this: You're an amazing writer who puts up with a lot of undeserved shit. Keep on goin'. You're fics are out of this world, and you've got some excellent friends in the fandom. It doesn't matter what some random people think. People like Mslead, Snog, Proud, Lonestorm and Words will always be there.

@soprana-snap they messaged me again to let me know that you will, in fact, be there too :)

Yeah, these are the folks that have my back even when I’m being a little shit :3

(also, I know for a fact that one of those people listed will not be there. They never have been when I needed them.)

[soprana-snap]

Back from the dead so who we fightin?

We know when you are being a butt, we can just wrap you in a snuggie and give you snacks. Talent is tiring; writing is hard. You conquer both like the boss bitch you are.

But also you are like, too frickin nice when you don't have an evil scheme going. Don't let grumps steal your shine and keep plotting more devastatingly beautiful literature. Not sure if we need more aggressive positivity or this calls for aggression progression? I'm flexible on both >:3

[purpleguitar]

why does a ml need to be redeemed to be in a romantic relationship. isn't it enough to watch him lose his mind over food, go on a revenge rampage over his dead mum in a fuckass costume, and be stupidly in love with his royal cook?

Holy shit Nepal's whole government is fucking GONE lmao

Theyve had a corrupt as hell government full of nepo babies which killed 19 people the other day (including unarmed children) during a protest and Gen Z was like "No we're gonna burn you mother fuckers down", they've burned down the presidential palace, the parliament, police offices, houses of politicians. Theres people chasing ministers down in the streets!

That last pic is of a dude who *defeated* a riot cop and STOLE HIS FUCKIN GEAR!! Theyre using the strawhats logo as a rallying symbol of rebellion just like in Indonesia
