Thanks for being my friends, this year has been really hard, but having a community filled with friends here that distracts from the bad times means the world to me. Merry Christmas everyone, you’re all on my nice list 🩷🎄

One of the things I loathe most about AI is the idea that real people would change their writing to avoid common AI tics. That this...thing might actually shape our modes of self-expression and foreclose certain tools and sentence structures is viscerally disgusting to me
