Avery Special, high school girl necromancer, to her surprise ends up with a boyfriend AND a girlfriend. The 'caught between two suitors' trope is so big in girls' YA that I figured the only sane thing to do would be for her to get both rather than having to choose. www.amazon.com/Please-Dont-...

NOICE.

You were chosen by sloth.

I think we're all Bozos on this bus, Victor.

You know, some people like to squeeze the wheeze.

I had a job translating English to English for Japanese television news.

BPL14 Wednesday night report: MEAT.

Mister frbodj/// is my father. Call me yjr.

...this explains Amy.

It's pretty clear you poured your aesthetic into Clover, and your persona is naturally deeply instilled with your aesthetic. That there would be big similarities make sense. Also I get the impression that while Clover is her own complete person, she feels a little fursona-y to you.

BPL14 Monday night report: Breakfast food night went well until Botany exploded. I discovered a recipe for mystery meat soup.

This is unfortunately extremely true. No matter what technique you pick to deal with this dilemma, the people who want to nitpick will go crazy.

My suggestion as a writer is 'don't explain'. Make it clear which are actual artificial intelligences, which are LLMs, and have the way they act different make it clear for you.

The Signals.

I know the whole far left thing is seeing politics as a simple good vs evil war where there is one obvious good guy stance, but the speed with which they have gone full-on Elders of Zion level antisemite is horrifying.

I am moved to awe that the typo is throughout the document. Does he not actually know it’s ‘fury’?

@tkingfisher.com This will soothe you.

…now I am imagining using the surgery table and skill books to make Super Mining Dumud. Artisan, work slave, serious, and nocturnal. Imagine it.

Also it gives you an excuse to watch a dozen Dumuds flopping around.

Those things are slow as molasses. No, you need a base on an ore deposit cluster, with an ore pit for while the deposits are refreshing.

Yeah, you need a base on one of those spots with 567 ore deposits. Enough Dumuds might keep up with that but won’t let you add ore pits if the deposits aren’t enough.

You have my sympathy on the tech levels. It’s always “That one is cool, why can’t I ride it yet!?”

I’m kind of surprised about the ore thing. Mining bases and a flock of Legally Distinct Koopas had my ore needs settled by then. That’s anout when I sweated for coal inatead.

What level are you? Surely you have Bird. You are the person who I would most expect to have seen Bird flying overhead and pointed and said, “Kevin I’m going to ride that motherfucker all over the map.” Either before or after “KEVIN LOOK I CAUGHT A GIANT SPARKLY CHICKEN.”

@tkingfisher.com I bet your followers would LOVE posts on Best and Worst Pals.

Don’t be ridiculous. Her dress would get dirty.

"We preach love and compassion, for the universe offers neither." from Miskatonic resonates with me. The stars don't define the value of people or of good. We justify ourselves and we give each other kindness.

Another reason not to be cursed for your sin and turned partly into an animal, children! #WildChildren

Damn.

That's a good stick.

Why don't I have a stick like that?

we need to talk
