thanks for the comments and asks saying i'm being mean for very mildly saying i don't like when people make social decisions based on horoscopes.

your behavior has made me realize i should be "meaner": horoscopes are fake.

the position of planets and balls of gas did not in any way impact your personality or destiny. it has nothing to do with what kind of people you are compatible with, despite what an app or magazine told you.

i think sincere belief in horoscopes shows a concerning propensity to trust pseudoscience and a susceptibility to confirmation bias.

i'm pretty tired of having to tiptoe around this kind of thing and include disclaimers. if you genuinely think you shouldn't be friends with someone because of the date they came out of a uterus, you're being a clown.

FYI if your favorite creators start having AI dubbing on their videos - it is now on by default and not everyone bothers to read these emails. So be kind when you let them know it's enabled.

Also FYI you don't have to have any published videos to turn off the auto-dubbing, and when you turn it off, it comes up with a little survey asking you why you don't want to use the auto-dubbing.

Personally, I told them it was because AI translation is a half-baked technology that has actually set the industry back by several years, but I'm sure you can think of your own reasons too.

So, hey? If your name is Maxxie/maxwellamus and you bought me a coffee/send a request on ko-fi, could you contact me? I really want to draw you Hermie but I need some details. Check your ko-fi inbox, please!

why bother caring about the environment when 1. It’s so obviously a lost cause and 2. There’s definitely going to be a nuclear war?

And what are you doing about it Anon? Learn about ecological restoration or get out of my way.

Almost a million protestors in Israel against the war today

A minimum of 300 thousand in Tel Aviv alone, probably closer to 500 thousand

300 thousand Israelis is a little over 3 percent of the Israeli population; if there was an American protest of that magnitude today that would be almost 11 million protestors

Almost a million protestors is 10% of the population, which would be 34.2 million Americans protestors

This is unprecedented

If y'all would just listen to what the actual Israelis want, you'd understand that WE WANT THIS WAR TO END

PSA: AO3 HAS BEEN INFECTED WITH AI BOT COMMENTS.

Have you seen one of these dipshits? If you post regularly on ao3, chances are YES, but more likely you didn't notice nor suspect it was a bot. Sometimes they start off nice, or even praise you before getting nasty out of nowhere, like so:

But much like Grok, their newest obsession is nazism.

I don't know where they come from, or what purpose this could possibly serve other than suicidebaiting random people in the internet, I guess; but apparently they've started parroting names from real users to send these comments and shifting their general length to go by undetected. Maybe those are scrappers trying to train 'reviewbots' to be sold as part of some scam service promising to give feedback for newbie writers, who the fuck knows.

Here are more examples of the tone and backhanded compliments you can find in these:

If you regularly post on AO3 or interact with writers in it, please pass this along so they don't feel insane receiving bombs in their inbox. This is ridiculous.
