       Imagine being so immature, so angry about pitiful things, so childish and selfish and arrogant and completely, completely stupid that getting removed from a nonsense social media platform drives you over the edge into madness...Now imagine being such a garbage human being, you’d seriously threaten violence over it. Yeah, these people never matured passed a zygote. I’m disgusted#fuckyouTrumphttps://www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2021/01/09/trump-twitter-protests/

       @stux Thank you for this. I’m fact, I wrote this specifically with Mastodon users in mind. That it’s a safe place and they’re not alone. https://significantbullet.co/kate-spade-anthony-bourdain-and-suicide-tw

       “The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.”Another remarkable first line from the creator of the word “cyberspace” (and my favorite author). —William Gibson “Nueromancer” #Literature #OpeningLines

       @Ronnie Oh, been meaning to ask: what’s your experience with the Mammoth iOS app? I kind of liked it, but the whole developed by Yahoo thing sort of irked me. Unless I’m misunderstanding things

       @tim I’m a writer and this pisses me off. My craft is becoming obsolete. I dedicated my life to writing only to have it taken over by idiotic AI@liztai @emmah

       @tim @liztai @emmah ChatGPT produces junk. There’s no poetry or subtlety to what it spits out. It’s bland prose with no irony, symbolism, or meaning. Yet people eat it up. Say it’s the greatest thing. I’m pissed because AI’s can’t write or produce art. They just mimic it. There’s no internal meaning to anything they produce

       @liztai There are people writing books with ChatGPT and then selling them on Amazon. It’s sickening. I agree it’ll weed out the amateurs, but I have no faith in the general public. They’ll buy these books. Read them. The impassioned will be imboldened and the passionate, talented writers will be ignored. Intellectualism is a curse. People don’t want to read complex, smart writing. They want to TL:DR version. Social media, in part, is guilty for causing this. People are dumb@tim @emmah
