This is also why, as Terence Tao pointed out, genAI mathematics sucks: it removes every bit of unexpected consilience that comes from understanding the mental model and process. "Oh shit, this could be used to think about this totally other thing" is *how all mathematics grows*

cool ghoul
A chart featuring a ghoul, with lines pointing to various parts of the ghoul.
a big caption at the top say 
"cool ghoul! Get The Look! Ghouls are in"
The ghoul is crouching covered in blood, with his tongue out, surrounded by bones, and wearing sunglasses.
The captions are as follows:
Perpetual blood crust around mouth
body caked in ichor
wispy hair like desiccated worms
wide mouth for chomping bones
worn out loincloth for maximum dexterity
bones
gotta show off those nasty feet
$3000 sunglasses

NOT A SINGLE FUCKING THING. There was already so much to read, look at, learn, explore, collage, so much weirdness and trueness and falseness and brilliance on the internet. And it got fucked up not because people wanted to earn money, but because a few people were determined to earn a LOT of money

As much as us radicals get painted as the unrealistic ones, far-right factions have been fought and defeated — using a variety of tactics — plenty throughout history. What has never worked are civil dialogues with fascists. Insisting on civility, especially now, takes a special level of delusion.

I DON'T LIKE THE NEW ONES
its a box of girl scout cookies that says "NEW FLAVOR". The flavor is "the girls sell you a box of dirt by accident but you eat one anyway & all the girls laugh, even the real sad one with the little broken arm. So now you decide to come back every week & eat dirt to lift everybody's spirits but now doctor says you're sick from doing that and you say "but my career!!" & he gets mad and says "i don't see how eating dirt to make children laugh is a career, you don't even get paid" so now YOU get mad and say "the SMILES are the payment!!" & you punch the doctor in
the mouth & he died & now you can't go
back home because of the police are there"

"What beautiful creatures we have found in the bog! What lovely songs they sing." A painting I did for the folk horror TTRPG "The Woods at Blight's Hollow" I co-created with Oli Jeffery, now available for pre-order 🧜‍♀️
Two gaunt, feminine humanoid creatures with luminescent skin and mermaid tails, each sporting 6 glowing eyes in alien looking heads. They sit in repose in a pond with glowing, shimmering water, in the woods at night. In the distance you can see a light in the window of a lone wooden cabin.
