When someone has been stalked, harassed, and doxxed as often as I have been I see it as a kind of preemptive self defense. Like locking your doors or having your car keys in hand. There's no direct threat but better safe than sorry.
Is it on your news website? I will tell Google to not show me your site. A| on your YouTube channel? Don't show me this. Ads? I won't buy it. Using genned crap is a straight shot to getting your reach to me barred forever. I hope it's worth it.
Furthermore if you are an author and your cover is genned trash im going to safely assume the contents inside also are. Again if you couldn't be assed to write it I can't be assed to read it.
Yeah if my partner shaves or gets a haircut it takes my brain a couple days to get the new look ingrained. Voices are my main go to for recognizing people. All that makes drawing faces in art a real big challenge. I got decent at hands before I ever got ok at faces.
Ok but i fuckin love this.
I ran smack dab into this when I released my books. I had a LOT of people around the con/festival circuit so excited for my books, they would get pictures with me and brag about their author friend. Upon release maybe 100 were purchased but maybe 5 read them and reviews were just as scant :/
Omg tonight!!
If I remember right this was the guy who won that art contest with his slop and was bragging nonstop when people were mad at him. Oh boooo hooo.
Oooh robit!
Fun case of strep too. Snuck in at the end of bronchitis and was like hmm mildly scratchy throat, tired, and then almost closed my throat at 4 am this morning. A trip to the er and antibiotics and steroids to keep me breathing. It felt like my tonsils were going to pop my uvula like a grape.
