#CRPnessie #CampRevPit Leah is an outdoors person. She breaks into restricted sections, and sneaking into the counselor's cabin to see what they brought to camp. She is a hyper-specialized telepath who relives their subjects memories by touching their skin and she psychically speaks to machines.

#CRPnessie #CampRevPit Gwen is beauty. She is grace. She'll punch you in the face. (And psychically break your will, turn you into her meat puppet, use you to spy on her enemies, feed you to her dragon, etc.) Would Gwen eat a s'more offered by Leah? Absolutely not. It's probably poisoned.

My favorite day of #RevPit and #RevPitWaiting arrives! This year we adopted two new #RevPets, a black and white girlie named Adora and a gray tuxedo boy named Fred. They join our senior cats, a grumpy tabby named Socks and the little white ghost who took twelve years to become a lap cat, Karli.
A medium hair black and white cutie cat with a white face stares between the bannisters as she lounges on her comfy rug. She is a year and four months old.A gray and white fluffy long haired tuxedo boy sits at the top of the stairs, looking doen at you expectantly between boxes and an orange leather chair. Did you bring him dinner?A short haired brown and gray tabby with a white stomach and white socks stares at you suspiciously as she explores her new cat tree. She is not sure if she likes it.A little short haired white cat sleeps peacefully on a large blue pillow nestled on a computer chair.

#RevPit, #RevPitWaiting As I am behind on everything, we're doing the prompts of the past few days backwards! A quote, a moodboard, and eventually a character intro for my RevPit science fantasy entry: Behind Every Honest Truth.
A man stands at the top of the mountain, looking out at the sunrise and the vast expanse of mountains before him.

Two brachiosaurus and a stegosaurus watch the sunrise.

In the center of the frame, a woman meets a dragon on a windy mountaintop in sepia.

Below, two fencers duel.

And on the chessboard, the golden king has defeated silver.

The text reads: what is an emperor to a dragon?

“Never forget the lives of your loved ones are in the palm of my hand. Trust that if you betray me, I’ll make their lives a living hell. One far worse than all the losses you’ve experienced thus far. Their happiness relies on your compliance.”

 There it was.

Leah warred with the Grand Matre long enough to know when her threats were empty, but she’d always let this threat cow her. She did care about her family. She was hurt by the glassy eyes that failed to recognize her. Hurt by the loss of shared memories. She hated being a stranger to those who’d once known her best. As her father said, even the most honest of truths hid a dishonest hand. This truth cloaked hers.once known her best. As her father said, even the most honest of truths hid a dishonest hand.

Usually character first, sometimes world first, and sometimes raw feral vibes like what if we combined Robin Hood with Star Wars and dragons on a dinosaur planet and threw in a dash of Dune? What if, #RevPit? What if we combined fated mates with portal fantasy fairytale vibes and body horror?

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs.

The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.

The irony here is that the guy (21) is left-leaning and the girl (19) is conservative. This is the one time it makes sense, and may be her first relationship with someone who sees her as a human being. Which is an example opposite the point this article is trying to make.

This is just going to always be my go-to response to this kind of thing anthonymoser.github.io/writing/ai/h...
I do understand: you want permission. There's a machine in the corner wrapped in human skin that makes things out of shit and blood to look like whatever you want (as long as you don't look too closely). You gave one to your teacher and they didn't notice. Your boss told you to use it after they laid off half the team and it was fine. You fed one to your kids and they liked it. You want to know you can use it sometimes without me thinking less of you. You don't need me to believe it's useful, you just want me to be polite about it.

But I am a hater, and I will not be polite. The machine is disgusting and we should break it. The people who build it are vapid shit-eating cannibals glorifying ignorance. I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself.

Tumblr user nocryptographer:
I talked with someone who works in book publishing, and they mentioned they get a lot of AI slop these days. I asked how they know what's human-written, and they said that there's one thing that will reveal AI slop without error, and that's the author not knowing their own creation.
A real author can talk about their story for hours. They love to elaborate every character, every twist, every detail. Because those existed in their head long before they ever made it to the paper. They were loved before they were written.
AI slop wasn't. It was just vomited into existence.
Someone who generates their story with AI will never bond with their story the way real writers do. That's why they may not know what to say when they're asked why did the character do this, or even remember the scene in the first place. It's something they read, not something they wrote. And to a writer, those are not the same.
There's a unique bond between the creator and the creation. If your writing doesn't come of you, you'll always lack that.
I keep hearing soon we won't be able to tell. And perhaps, in a superficial sense, that's true. But there is a difference. It's not em dashes or repeated words. It's whether the story was made by someone who loves it and cares about it. 
If the writer's eyes light up when asked why did the character do that? and they start their very own Ted Talk about that specific scene... 
then it's real.
