nah, who am i kidding? i'd just be less annoyed ;)
i get they don't care. i get that the wide net serves them & that reputational capital is not the business they're in. Gen AI has uses. but. if promoters could stop asking me to ignore the evidence of my own eyes that it does many things very poorly, i'd be less critical
i miss that world & time & openness. made me smile to see your screenshot of 'guess when i tweeted?' i loved all that sensemaking :) i have *just* dipped my toe back in blogging and it is WORK but still weirdly - hearteningly - rewarding...i have been surprised & joyful about it
my own work a decade ago focused more on academic Twitter participation but included a bit on blogging. i remember @melissaterras.bsky.social@patthomson.bsky.social@thesiswhisperer.bsky.socialwww.erudit.org/en/journals/...
we all need to just lie down, i swear. xox. you are awesome.

as a 26yr old at the time, old enough to have language around sexualized violence & also just NOT part of that music market...it was creepy then too. but nobody wanted to hear it.

"AIQ" just made me throw up in my mouth a bit while also making me wonder why it's taken this long for some huckster to coin & shill it
i kinda hope so?
