Using lists of three is not an "AI tell." It's a common trait in human writing because our brains biologically want to make sure there's always one thing to marry, one thing to fuck, and one thing to murder.

Medusa but her hair is an anaconda
Medusa with a single anaconda for hair. She wears a grey chiton and stubbornly strides to the left, dragging the heavy snake, which trails sullenly along behindMedusa with a single anaconda for hair. It is completely coiled around her, leaving only her angry yellow eyes visible, and a single hand lifted to flip off the worldMedusa with a single anaconda for hair. She wears a grey towel and is scrubbing the snake. A bar of soap sits in a small puddle off to the leftMedusa with a single anaconda for hair. She sits, drumming her fingers impatiently, while in the background the anaconda digests some large prey

 fipindustries on tumblr:

I cannot stand the parodies of modern major general,
they're overdone and simply not as good as the original.
They've done them about everything, whatever topic, big or small.
And when i notice one of them my eyes will always start to roll.

The diction’s always slurry when they rush the
complicated words, and adding many fricatives will turn
it so cacophonous. The slanted rhymes are silly and they
keep just making more and more, please someone stop
the parodies of modern major general.

The scanning of the lyrics in the meter is unbearable,
they emphazise the syllables in ways that are untenable,
in short in matters musical, prosodic and ephemeral, i
cannot stand the parodies of modern major general!

This is fucking terrifying
Separate research supports the concern. Anat Perry, a Helen Putnam Fellow at Harvard’s Radcliffe Institute and associate professor of psychology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, co-authored a paper in Science examining how sycophantic AI responses erode users’ ability to calibrate their own judgment. The paper found that when AI systems consistently affirm a user’s position, the user’s capacity for independent evaluation degrades over time.

Joanna Stern, NBC’s chief technology analyst and author of “I Am Not a Robot: My Year Using AI to Do (Almost) Everything,” has documented the creep of AI dependency in daily life. Her reporting has shown how users begin with low-stakes queries, such as what to cook for dinner or what to wear, and gradually escalate to consequential decisions about careers, finances, and relationships. The trajectory from convenience to reliance is difficult to reverse once established.

HOW TO PICK UP SEXY AND INTERESTING PEOPLE AT THE GYM qwantz.com/index.php?co...
Narrator: HOW TO PICK UP SEXY AND INTERESTING PEOPLE AT THE GYM
T-Rex: Oh, it's so easy!

T-Rex: First, you've got to work on your approach!
T-Rex: I recommend approaching with confidence, chest proud, legs locked. Then, bend your knees and, making sure to lift with your legs and not your back, lift them like you would any other deadlift.
Dromiceiomimus: Excellent advice!!Narrator: NO, LIKE, HOW YOU'D PICK PEOPLE UP AT THE BAR
Utahraptor: Oh, this is even EASIER!

Utahraptor: If they've been drinking, you've ALREADY got your in. Approach them friendly-like, ask them about themselves, and while they're drunk and distracted trying to answer your question, you can pick them up and deposit them into a taxi or the car of their trusted friends.
T-Rex: And how!Narrator: NO. NO, HOW DO I PICK PEOPLE UP ROMANTICALLY
T-Rex: Do the other two techniques we already said but with Barry White playing, or, if you're more literal: Fréd Chopin or Joey Brahms, famous composers of the early and mid-Romantic period, respectively. It ALWAYS works!!

absolutely flabbergasting to see people who have so enthusiastically succumbed to despair. like okay denethor, but some of us are gonna actually face the armies of mordor in battle nonetheless.

The thing about Denethor is that he not only succumbed to despair, he wanted to ensure that Faramir succumbed with him. Similarly, a lot of people now are not only succumbing to despair, they're actively proselytizing despair, trying to convince others to join them in their hopelessness. Despair is apparently lonely and they want company in their self-immolation.

btw denethor succumbed to despair bc he was doomscrolling on the palantir. Sauron tweaked his algorithm so he only saw bad news, and he fell into the trap of thinking the world couldn't be saved.

T-Rex: NO THANKS!T-Rex: What *I* want is a computer that takes up a room - or at least one wall of it! I want my computer to have KNOBS and DIALS and METAL SWITCHES and BLINKY LIGHTS. There should be giant reels that spin and DEFINITELY whir. And bits that clack and clatter!
T-Rex: And you know what? I wouldn't say no to a lever either!
Utahraptor: Should the blinky lights be in multiple colours?
T-Rex: YES! Please, yes!

T-Rex: We've been SO FOCUSED on chasing portability and convenience that we've completely forgotten VIBES and AESTHETIC. I don't want the fastest or most capable computer! I want a computer that's HARD TO USE and GORGEOUS TO LOOK AT.
Utahraptor: Like me!

Foxes In Love @foxes-in-love.bsky.social · 19/06/2026
A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Green approaches Blue with a festive wreath of wild flowers on his head.
Green: You know that summer solstice magic thing, of putting seven flowers under your pillow?
Blue: Yeah?
Green: What if you already have the love of your life? What will your dreams reveal then?

Blue looks pensive as he contemplates the potential, while Green frowns briefly in dismay.
Blue: Maybe I could try that to keep an eye on you tonight.
Green: Why?

Blue turns to look over his shoulder as Green cheerily passes him, already on his way to whatever celebrations he is heading to.
Blue: To see that you and your friends don't get arrested.
Green: Well, you can observe, but not intervene.

A photo of a Dell laptop screen taken between two train seats. The screen has a training video with the text "You never know who's sitting next to you" showing on it. The picture taker is sitting behind the person taking the training, so it's OK.

THE POPE IS QUOTING GANDALF!!!
213. The twentieth-century Catholic author J.R.R. Tolkien, in the words of a protagonist in one of his novels, described our responsibility in this way: “It is not our part to master all the tides of the world, but to do what is in us for the succour of those years wherein we are set, uprooting the evil in the fields that we know, so that those who live after may have clean earth to till.”

There are also some taillows and cutieflies around the areaIllustration of peaceful scenery based on Palette town, with a wide field of grass and a couple buildings and windmills. There are wooloo on the grass with a sleeping nidoran among them. On the rooftop in the foreground, some starlies are perched and a ratatta is nibbling on bread. Skiplooms are floating about. There are white clouds and a rainbow in the sky in the back. The faint silhouette of a ho-oh can be seen flying under the rainbow.

I'll just leave this important reminder here, useful for whenever you share anything as a link. (The image in the quoted post doesn't have alt text but there's a link to the reddit post it's screenshotted from in the replies of the post.)
HEY YOU! YES YOU!
TAKE THIS SHIT OUT OF LINKS!

example(.)com/articl?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=emai
/youtu(.)be/dQw4w9WgXcQ?si=Aa1Uc_fRHXC0ay85

These are source identifiers

Source identifiers are used to track your activity on a site. Where you came from, what device you use, and even who you talk to. Whether it's written clearly in the url or tied to a random string of characters, it's assigned to your activity.

When you send a link containing a source identifier to somebody and they click it, it signals to the website that you two are connected. And that data goes right back to the website operators, and thus their advertisers.

Whenever you select "share" or "copy link" on a social app or website, it creates a link like this. If you give even the smallest shit about online privacy, it's important to remove them. Everything after the "?" symbol can be removed without issue, especially sections starting with "si=" or "utm_source="
