Old habits die screaming;

Hello, love. My name is Beth. I'm thirty one years old & I’m married to the most incredible man. I’m a forensic psychology major. You’ll find my many special interests here, like being a huge Swiftie. I have been, ever since I met her at thirteen. Her music sounds like coming home. I love reading, particularly fantasy books, & am obsessed with SJM. I graduated from personality type INFJ to INTJ. yes yes, thank you thank you. Enneagram type 4. Shocker. I hope you have the day you deserve.

I am a terrible combination of “whatever happens, happens” and “If everything doesn’t go according to plan, I will vaporize”

Avoidance is the worst reaction to stress. Oh this thing is giving me anxiety? And it's something I could prepare for by looking at it more or learning things about the topic? No, I will take psychological damage if I look at it directly. I will still be thinking about it and be stressed though.

If you haven't heard, the em dash has been getting a lot of attention lately…

Because it was trained on pirated work—including freely accessible online writing (like fanfic, academic texts)—ChatGPT picked up patterns and quirks native to human writing.

Including (sigh) the em dash.

There are other victims here (RIP tapestry and delve 🫠), but the appropriation of the em dash—a punctuation mark beloved by writers everywhere—feels especially personal.

A kind of low-grade panic is ensuing. Writers who once memed their own em dash overuse—the greatest punctuation mark ever to grace the control-freak’s lexicon, frankly—are suddenly backing away to avoid accusations.

No. More. We have centuries of dash-abusing writers behind us. We will not sit quietly while AI repurposes our beloved stilted aside—or the just-one-more clarification the sentence demands—or the dramatic pause your comma could never—etc.

You don’t write like AI—AI writes like you.

Defend the em dash.
