Reposted by Hayden QuinnBryn Donovan @bryndonovan.bsky.social · 02/09/2026One reason AI slop flyers look so terrible is that there is no hierarchy of messaging, and the same is true with AI slop prose. ChatGPT and Claude are always making something random into a big fucking deal, because they are not human and don’t know what’s a big deal and what isn’t. 1132

For August, I’m highlighting The Meet Cute Café, which is a series of connected shorts that takes place in a café. It's a good way to see if you like my writing if you haven't read 1 of my books.

Hayden Quinn @haydenquinn.bsky.social · 29/08/2025A hill I will gladly die on - 'vibes' are not real. If you're 'sensing a vibe', you're projecting your own feelings onto other people to make it about them when it's your own thing. If it isn't stated aloud, it isn't happening for certain. If you sense something, perhaps reflect instead. 010
