being anti ai is making me feel like in going insane. "you asked for thoughts about your characters backstory and i put it into chat gpt for ideas". studies have proven its making people dumber. "i asked ai to generate this meal plan". its causing water shortages where its data centers are built. "ill generate some pictures for the dnd campaign". its spreading misinformation. "meta, generate an image of this guy doing something stupid". its trained off stolen images, writing, video, audio. "i was talking with my snapchat ai-" theres no way to verify what its doing with the information it collects. "youtube is impletmenting ai based age verification". my work has an entire graphics media department and has still put ai generated motivational posters up everywhere. ai playlists. ai facial verification. google ai microsoft ai meta ai snapchat ai. everyone treats it as a novelty. every treats it as a mandatory part of life. am i the only one who sees it? am i paranoid? am i going insane? jesus fucking christ. if i have to hear one more "well at least-" "but it does-" "but you can-" im about to lose it. i shouldnt have to jump through hoops to avoid the evil machine. have you no principles? no goddamn spine? am i the weird one here?

so when straight people ask me why I say Iâm âqueerâ or âgayâ instead of sharing my actual identity as a panromantic demisexual non-binary sapphic queer I just tell them âok look, when youâre talking to someone who isnât local and they ask you where youâre from and you either say the name of the largest city nearby or âtown name, suburb of large nearby cityâ so they can get some geographical context of where youâre located right, bc theyâre probably not going to know the name of the little town you actually live in.â
but if youâre talking to a local you can say the name of your actual town bc they have a greater chance of knowing where/what that is.
ok well when Iâm talking to a straight person I start with queer bc chances are they arenât as familiar with the context of all the little towns in that big queer city and need gps (gay positioning system) to find me.
if Iâm talking to another queer person and I say I live in a suburb of gay city in a town called panromantic on the demisexual side of the tracks which is in the county of queer and I live off the intersection of non-binary and sapphic, theyâd probably be able to find me with little to no problems, make sense?

what if your doppelganger loved being you more than you ever loved being yourself. they're better at being you and everyone loves them and it feels almost selfish to want your life back. i want clone horror but the horror is that the thing trying to replace you is also the person you always wanted to be.

I went to a taylor swift concert once and it was mostly ok but there was one standout moment where they brought a red pulsating jewel on stage. Taylor said it was called the heart of Ozymandias. She kept inviting people on stage to touch it and every time they did they would turn into sand and blow away. And people just kept going up and touching the thing.
