I know this isn’t the point, and the egg thing is a metaphor for something something The Horrors, but I want to know what the fuck kind of Target Atreus is going to that you can you buy three individual eggs?

A demo of a song for one of the new projects we're working on, Thy Sinful House! It's an adaptation of Seneca's Thyestes using suburban horror to explore ecological destruction as a kind of ancestral sin. As two estranged sisters fight over a grand McMansion, suburbs burn, the world darkens, and children are served up for Sunday roast.
Lyrics under the cut!
ATREUS: THYESTES SLEEPS IN THE YOUNG ONE'S AWAKE THE OLD ONE IS GRUMPY THE YOUNG ONE WANTS CAKE! THE OLD ONE BURNS TOAST WHILE SHE PLAYS ON HER PHONE. I HAVE TO LEAVE MY OWN HOUSE SO THEY'LL LEAVE ME ALONE!
EACH MORNING I DRIVE TO TARGET AND BUY THREE INDIVIDUAL EGGS TO MAKE THEM SOMETHING WARM TO EAT. THE YOUNG ONE IS ALLERGIC SO SHE NEVER EATS HERS. I CUT IT UP SMALL FOR THE PARAKEET.
ALONE IN THE CAR TO TARGET I SING ALONG WITH THE RADIO BUT THE ONLY STATION OUT HERE IS CLASSICAL OPERA. I DRIVE AROUND IN CIRCLES I TOUR THE CUL DE SACS I IDLE IN THE DRIVEWAY, WAITING TO DROP THE
MOTHER AT WORK THE KIDS OFF AT SCHOOL SO FOR EIGHT GREAT HOURS I CAN DRINK BY THE POOL TILL THEY GET BACK AGAIN. THEY'LL GET BACK AGAIN. I DON'T KNOW HOW OR WHEN, BUT THEY'LL GO BACK AGAIN, THEY HAVE TO! BACK TO THEIR LIVES BACK TO THEIR LEASE BACK TO MY POOL BACK TO MY PEACE THE QUIET I EARNED THE SUCCOR I GIVE MUST I HAVE A SISTER AS LONG AS I LIVE?
EACH MORNING I DRIVE TO TARGET AND BUY ONE LITTLE PINCH OF CAYENNE TO LACE THE OLDER ONE'S EGG WITH SPICE. THEY SELL EVERYTHING AT TARGET LIKE PEACE… AND QUIET… AND ARSENIC. ISN'T THAT NICE? ISN'T THAT NICE?

Me: Oh, you use ChatGPT? I don’t think that’s a good idea.
My internal monologue: homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong homicide is wrong—
#ai#fuck ai#fuck chatgpt#ChatGPT#fuck generative ai#fuck ai art#fuck ai writing#I vote anyone who uses generative AI— especially in an academic setting— gets forced to sit in a corner and watch twenty hours of 90s PSAs#about why plagiarism is wrong and how you shouldn’t claim others’ work as your own#and then hit them with a Subaru#just to make sure the point is clear

Me, the moment someone mentions ChatGPT:

(so mad i can’t see straight) Yeah i just don’t think chat gpt is a good classroom tool
#I’ve managed to avoid anyone using ChatGPT in group projects by making it very clear that I will drag anyone who tries it out of the class#myself and beat them with their own overpriced textbooks#you’ve heard of pistol whipping#now get reading for textbook whipping#just stick a couple books in a pillow case and start swinging#it is super effective

people will do/say the kindest thing you’ve ever witnessed then be like Sorry if that’s weird :(
#social conditioning dictates that acts of kindness are seen as weakness or some type of overbearing and that people should be deeply#individualist but the thing is that to be human is to love other things#to be alive is to love other things#the belief that empathy and love is weakness is a byproduct of those who have no love in their life#their lives are so bitter and empty that they chose to push it onto everyone else#there is nothing smaller than a man who says that empathy and love is weakness#for that one sentiment only serves to show just how hollow that suit of gold plated armor they prance around in is#people will apologize for kindness and love but those apologies should be met with equally fervent levels of affection#the strongest are those who shake in their boots insures but still choose to be loving towards others#friends of mine may apologize— I will too sometimes— but I promise that those apologies will be met with something mending#for as much as we are told that full hearts turn our wings to wax and the warmth of it will melt it away#it is others that will help stitch those feathers back together and help you fly#bonds of friendship and love are the bonds that help us lift up towards the heavens and soar to greater heights#anyways that has been my tedtalk

#I think this tumblr post took a solid five years off my lifespan#that’s a Doberman which adds to the layering because Doberman were bred to be working guard dogs#but it came at the expense of their physical health due to being bred to not have any body fat#so they’re perpetually cold and angry looking because of the job that they are supposed to fulfill#anyways thing crust New York dogs are superior to deep dish Chicago dogs#in this essay I will—#I have seen half an episode of The Bear and it was done while getting into a yelling match over +4s in uno
