getting banned over a glitched report that was never actually filed, only to be unbanned out if nowhere 3 months later and then immediately banned again within a matter of hours, is honestly the most pjackk thing to ever happen to someone on this site

Dio lackeys are always saying shit like “Lord Dio will be so pleased when he hears tell of my deed! He shall reward me!” I don’t know how to tell you but Dio does not give a fuck

Dio is standing in front of his mirror testing selfie angles right now and to be honest he’s kind of hoping you die

I don't think Tolkien is a good fantasy writer because he scored the highest at some objective Best Fantasy Book Test that every fantasy writer has to take, I think he's a good fantasy writer because he created a world based on things that he was interested in. I feel like a lot of fantasy writers think that they need to create a whole language for their world because Tolkien did and obviously his books are the best so they have to emulate him, but Tolkien did that because he was a linguistics nerd. I think the lesson to be learned from him is not that you have to include elves and deep history and new languages, but that you have to write endlessly about the things you are a huge nerd about and use those things to create your fantasy world

This doesn’t include the best bit of the whole thing - she found the Twitter thread!

This is like one of those romance novels where people bond over accidentally writing each other emails but better.

Like Pride and Prejudice but instead of the love interest getting dissed for his toxicity and then reforming, it’s just two people bonding over dissing a dead toxic asshole.

I think if humans layed eggs then our bosses would still make us come into work even after laying eggs... they'd say "get an incubator! you don't need to watch them!" and we would be forced into work every day instead of sitting on our eggs, so tragic! so cruel!!!!!

Bixonimania doesn’t exist except in a clutch of obviously bogus academic papers. So why did AI chatbots warn people about this fictional ill

Key points:

the paper was obviously fake to a human reader: it starts by saying it's fake and says it multiple times throughout

the paper says it was funded by the Professor Sideshow Bob University of Trickery and thanks contributors from the USS Enterprise and the Fellowship of the Ring

the paper has already been erroneously cited in a real research paper

LLMs give different information depending on the prompt, so sometimes they mention that the fake condition is "perhaps pseudoscience" and sometimes they tell people to see a doctor because they have the fake condition

absolutely no one is taking any responsibility for this shit, except maybe Nature, because they retracted the paper that cited the fake paper

LLMs don't think. They can't analyse. They can only repeat and remix thoughtlessly.

Howling in terror upon observing the Supreme Ruler of the Galaxy in all of His uncovered glory, TikTok creator Alex Morris reportedly screamed Friday after barging in on a bathing Xenu during a speedrun of a Church of Scientology building. “Jesus fucking Christ—what the hell is that thing?” Morris said mid-livestream as the ancient, incomprehensible Progenitor of All Thetans arose from His porcelain tub with a loofah in His hand.
