That's TOTALLY fair, it's really dark in that way and it definitely gets much worse 🥹

I think I'm up to like at least 5 or 6 people who've started reading Dungeon Crawler Carl due to my persistence. I'm not sure what the downline ratio expectations are for this cult but I'm feeling pretty good about myself.

So they aren't hidden necessarily, it's just that when I look at my roll I will see one photo and then there'll be a little icon to indicate that there's a bunch more that it's stacked underneath that which it deemed similar but lesser

I have two dress options to wear to this wedding one is WAY better for dancing and looks great on me but has a halter tie which isn't very comfortable for a long time the other looks fine and has no swish at all for dancing but is comfortable like pjs.

UGH like sometimes those are actually kind of cute because I take like 298576 photos of my kid and when I get a little memory slideshow of like "every time we got donuts" I'm like yeah, that's nice kinda but I also know What The Downsides Are

I don't need to see 6 of the 45 photos I took while the rest are hidden away in some sub area because an algorithm decided I didn't need them. I NEED THEM ALL. They are ALL important photos!! That's why I took SO MANY

Here's a thing technology is doing that is *not helpful at all to me* If I take 45 photos of myself against a gray bg with subtle and slight changes in the poses I am not trying to get "a good selfie" or something. I don't need Google or anyone else to decide for me which photos are 'the best'

This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

I reviewed the paperwork from the academic testing school did for my kiddo last spring and I read through the WHOLE document not even thinking about or noticing the report used the right pronouns. I noticed on the 2nd read through when I was looking for something specific. Delightful experience.

TY I am done being mad at myself about it, but I still wish I could deal with it faster than I am able to

Division of Insurance, urgent care, and the insurance co all said to call back when I get the paper bill. idk why the paper bill is the magical thing that allows me to start trying to deal with this!! I guess I will just wait in horribly mental agony for the mail every day for the next however long

To the person noting there is not enough money in the world to license every piece of intellectual property stolen for "AI" training: you're sooooo close to the point, friend, keep going, you'll get there if you try

I reinstalled Libby to try and find some of the free audiobooks that are available right now so I can cover the gaps between credits for the new releases I'm getting on Audible.
