Such news frustrate and discuss me so much, I literally can not.

This shit is dystopian, AI was never meant to create art, it will never be able to.

a writing competition i was going to participate in again this year has announced that they now allow AI generated content to be submitted

their reasoning being that "we couldn't ban it even if we wanted to, every writer already uses it anyway"

"Every writer"?

come on

NOTICE: As more and more fanfic writers are using generative AI for their works (you uncreative dweebs), I hereby swear on everything I hold dear that I have not and will NEVER use generative AI in ANY of my written work. Everything I post will be organically and creatively my own.

The thing people miss about medieval smells and lighting a lot of time is the fact that everything is fire powered. All their heat and all their light. Now I don't know if you have ever been to a place where all you have had is fire but it smells. It smells strong. The smell of fire will pretty much drown out most other scents. So it is likely you wouldn't always smell the person next to you, especially if the wood was wet and made a lot of smoke. You are going to stink like it for days even under modern circumstances where we bathe more regularly and also don't have to continually do this. Don't get me wrong, a city stink will still out stink it with the sheet amount of poop, but it is perfectly okay to imagine a medieval bar where everything just smells smoky.

This fire effect is also why you can always find shady corners in taverns. They didn't have high ceilings. They had some torches/candles/fireplace in a low ceilinged room. It is crazily easy for a pickpocket or anyone to just linger in there, especially once people have been drinking, and just not be noticed. Sure your eyes adjust, but everyone has different night vision and it all depends on how rich of a place you are at as to how much fire is available. Maybe if you are lucky it is a full moon.

Me reading another person's writing: Oh they missed a period there, no worries mistakes happen :) Three adjectives in a sentence? Adverbs for days? No worries I love descriptions and this story is fire.

Me seeing the same thing in my work: Wow am I illiterate? Am I actually ok? Who the actual fuck told me I can write so I can go and curse their entire family for the time it took for me to carefully craft this GARBAGE.

im sooo ready for summer🫩

everything eats and is eaten

me, as a child: all the asians look the same

me, as a 15 y.o. liberal: NO YOU CAN'T SAY ALL THE ASIANS LOOK THE SAME THIS IS RACIST YOU HAVE NO RESPECT AND DON'T DESERVE TO SPEAK

me, as a 20 y.o. junior Asia-Pacific researcher: all the asians look the same and their websites are cursed with the same spell
