Getting To That Time Of The Year Where The Sun Will Straight Up Project Childhood Memories Onto Your

i think love is when i put myself to bed even when im tired, and i carry myself up the stairs even though my knees ache. and i think love is when i buy myself a coffee when im broke, and i know that ill get myself back later. and i think love is letting myself love someone, even though i am so scared. love is a heavy thing that carries you as much as you carry it.

nothing to add to this you said it all..

Hey, (not so) casual reminder that generative AI has no place in fandom spaces, and I mean any generative AI use.

The “level” with which genAI is used, whether by an individual or a company, does things to this planet regardless. Scale does not matter.

Every prompt you put into genAI uses an amount of fresh water that, once evaporated, will never exist on this planet again.

Here are some resources for education yourself and others on the environment aspects of genAI usage, mostly centered toward the power consumption and data center impact.

I think it’s also important to note that genAI not only impact the environment, but also creative communities. Writers and artists have their work stolen daily to train genAI models, and those models spit out their work in a predictive manner.

Generative AI predicts the most likely results of whatever prompt you give it based off of material it has been fed—this is plagiarism, plain and simple.

If you are curious about fandom aspects of genAI specifically, I’d like to point you in the direction of this article by rolling stone: link

One of the individuals interviewed for this article, Elle, made a Reddit post about a commenter on ao3, and how they’d been feeding her work into ChatGPT in order to “get the next chapters earlier.” Here is the link to Elle’s original post: link

Please be aware that your use of generative AI, in any capacity, contributes to the things listed above, as well as the encouragement and normalization of mass plagiarism in our communities.

Do not be shocked or surprised when people in this space choose to turn their backs on you, block you, or oust you when they find out you participate in its use.

If I found out any piece of writing I’d created had been fed to genAI, through a roleplay bot or otherwise, I’d not only be devastated, but disgusted. I’d leave fandom spaces because of it. It’s not fun, and it’s not quirky.

The Bridge

It's hard to keep my arms stretched.

Nobody asks me to let go,

Nobody steps into the river.

Spring '25 💐
