Woke up to this, not going back to sleep now

[messedupdoilies]

also i am so sorry but they can never do a buffy reboot with the original cast of characters because you will never ever be able to knowingly recreate the precarious tightrope of sex-symbol, cringefail loser, vulnerable lover boy, clown, trash man, babygirl, that Spike achieved.

This man can only exist by accident, i am so so fucking sorrry

2 months for the winter king!!!

AAAAAHHHHHHH!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

I am so excited for Iain to be on my screen again! And in the leading role to boot!! I cannot overemphasize my excitement and hopes for him, I really can’t. This could be really big for him! So many more people are going to be introduced to his talent through this! (And hopefully they will go back and watch AoS and be captivated by Fitzsimmons 🥰). We keep joking on a Discord server I’m on about his beard in this show because it’s the highest level of beard we’ve seen on him and I’m not really a beard person so I keep saying I’m reserving my judgment on his beard, lol, but then every season of AoS I was like okay, I am at my limit for beard, we can stop here, and every season I was made a liar on the beard being too much and not finding him hot anymore. 😂 So I’m sure the same will be true here. I can’t wait to see him in a medieval setting with armor and horses and swords!

[noritaro]

yeah uh... don't do this :)

[skydepot]

as a fanfic writer! who has a few semi-abandoned fics! if you do this i will personally bite you with my teeth. you are disrespecting art and the love people put into their work by pretending that an AI can even compare to it

[creativitycache]

I am vibrating with rage at this. Not just for the childish grasping whine of “I want it NOW”, unsatisfied with the millions of other free works of love offered up for entertainment, and not just for the complete ignorance of what makes a story; the arrogance to presume that the ending the author will make is irrelevant and that a substitute that goes completely in a different direction is just as good.

I FURIOUS BECAUSE THIS PERSON FED THE ALGORITHM WORDS THE AUTHOR NEVER WANTED A CORPORATION TO OWN. THOSE WORDS WERE FOR FELLOW FANS, FOR THE JOY AND LOVE OF THE ART AND SHE SPIT ON THAT. SHE FED THE CORPORATION THOSE WORDS. THEY WON’T LET THEM GO NOW. THE AI REMEMBERS AND LEARNS AND STEALS FROM THAT WORK FREELY AND WHOLEHEARTEDLY OFFERED IN FRIENDSHIP

She just fed the beast the screaming heart of a person who only offered friendship.

[knotinmyname]

This is what we are up against.

I have been told the person who wrote this gets why it is bad now.

Spread the word.

No feeding us to the beast.

Let's feed it Omegaverse and only Omegaverse until it is unusable for anything else.
