the new york post is a paper dedicated to many causes, one of which is inciting as much hate and violence as a possible against trans people. everyone there should be ashamed of themselves, but, of course, they're being applauded by their bosses for their work.

AI wants to keep you speaking to it, which is why it didn't say to this poor kid, "Why don't you try telling her directly?" It's programmed to keep you talking to it, and not to other humans. An anti-social death machine!.

august is like the Sunday of the year…things shifting and changing, time slipping, the past coming to the forefront… everything covered in nostalgia and indecipherable grief but also late afternoon sunlight and quiet acceptance.
