Yes, thank you for summarizing how I feel about him! The accusations feel imminent.

I enjoyed that series. I’m sorry it stopped.

Thank you. I never understood the love for this one. I tried it a few times and found it so dry.

I think genAI is bad at what it does and bad for the people who use it, but that’s at best secondary to why I oppose it. It’s also bad for the environment, bad for the artists whose work it steals, bad for the people who lose work to it, and bad for the underpaid humans who actually keep it running.

I don’t submit if I know in advance they use AI. I can be unfortunately surprised by AI artwork as much as anyone, but I look for anti-AI stances when I submit.

Today, I signed a contract, wrote a poem, and received a kind rejection. Balance!

He dances in a way I have only seen horses dance. He possesses a power and majesty we will never know.

Yes! The reveal is a letdown.

The Gorge is delightful. The science is utter rubbish, and the banter makes great it fun.

Gatorade helps? That is nice to know. I got taken out by a migraine on Thursday night-a side effect of two snowstorms over three days.

Beware of geeks, bearing gifts. Better yet, beware of all billionaire and multimillionaire geeks!

In Reno, it isn’t spring until the winds redistribute all the sage brush bushes looking to make new friends. They are all buried under snow right now, but they will walk soon.

The backstitch is slow going, but it is going.

Those who push AI refuse to address the baked in plagiarism. They also fail to understand when and how writing happens. I have spent the last few hours revising poems. Reading them aloud, testing wording, re-breaking lines, changing punctuation, etc. AI cannot do that. AI should not do it either.
