i really really really hate this post it's so personally irritating to me bc like why is this your example why are you defending the sanctity of fucking email. why are you saying it's embarrassing to not be able to write an email. it's a fucking email. i get really anxious and im better about it now but in high school i would get so nervous sending emails i would have to have my teachers coach me tell me exactly what to say because i just had no idea how to phrase things how to ask for what i was trying to ask for and communicate it it was the same with papers i had like a paranoia about being wrong and being misinterpreted and so I just couldn't think of how to structure my sentences in the way i thought they should be that would communicate what i needed to correctly and i would get anxious thinking about how if i said something the teacher would get an idea about how i think and the opinions i have and draw conclusions about me and if what i said wasn't perfectly articulated to mean what i mean they would think something of me that was wrong and that was terrifying so i just wouldn't write papers i wouldn't write emails i would get 0s i would cause complications and i wouodnt be able to explain to people trying to help me why i didn't do it i just couldn't and i don't think i would have ever used chatgpt to write an essay for me if it was an option it wouldn't be my own words and opinion and that's exactly what i was anxious about in the first place but i might've used an email prompt to let me know what is a normal response and help me structure a sentence like what is with this fucking sentiment of "what do you mean you can't do this yourself that's embarassing" why are you people fucking agreeing with something saying that. hating ai ubiquitously no matter what without thinking about why rots your brain
#alex talks#i don't think i'm doing the thing here that ppl do online where they're like 'ermmm but have u considered that my brother actually died#from eating waffles so it's rlly insensitive to post a picture of your breakfast' bc i find this sentiment in this scenario objectionable i#disagree fundamentally with what it is directly saying#truly if i was struggling w writing an email would you tell me 'that's embarassing why can't you do that yourself' no? because that's#kind of well i don't want to throw the term ableist around and be the guy going like Erm it's actually ableist for you to tell me to stop#doing this bad thing bc as an anxious smol bean i suffer more than anyone else and am immune from criticism but it kinda does feel weird#like that and also its a fucking emaillll it's an EMAILLLLLLL
