Hey @kenjennings.bsky.social and @johnroderick.bsky.social if I told you this short story was partially inspired by a very early Omnibus episode ("The Pig War") would you read it? Because guess what.

On top of the tentacular weirdness, this story is also one of the best depictions of the twisted complexity of abusive dependent relationships I've ever read.

I'm going to be honest if you can get to the end of this it's a pretty impressive implementation of The Weave. But you gotta hang on to get there.

Did I list 29 separate examples of what I believe it means to be human in a discussion board post for the unit in my Master's of Science of Organizational Leadership program that included lengthy (but in my opinion incomplete) ethical AI use analysis? Yes. Was that the question? No, but...well, no.

As Flannery O'Connor said (or maybe the ghost said it for her?) "A story is a way to say something that can't be said in any other way, although really if you break it down to the raw data of the story what's the difference?"

As a longtime avid NYTC fan and an increasing avid Emily fan, this feels like it was created specifically for me to enjoy. Good news: I did! She never misses.

My dad and I watched basically every Giants game during the Kent era. Perhaps presciently, Dad never liked Jeff. After the motorcycle accident, every time Kent got out, Dad would yell "go wash your truck" at the TV. He also derisively called him "Tent" though not connected to anything I'm aware of.

Charlie Brown: I don't know, Patty, Lucy says what the ERA is really trying to do is force women to do something they don't want to do. I don't think that's right. Peppermint Patty: Chuck if you don't stop talking to those fascist van pelts I'm afraid we can't be friends anymore.

Channing Tatum in a shockingly compelling turn as Haemon. Flo Pugh overqualified for the title role but she'll eat with Samara Weaving as Ismene. A controversial casting of Paul Giamatti as Tiresius turns out to be brilliant. Viola Davis plays Eurydice and wins Best supporting actress.

you know the old movies/tv shows where there was a shapeshifter and you'd have the protag having to decide which version of a loved one to trust? AI has taught us that there's a large chunk of people who would just pick whichever one complimented them the blandest
