Unpopular Opinion Time

The doodle you make or the picrew you use, the poorly executed poetry or basic bare bones prayer will ALWAYS be better than AI generated offerings.

I am sick of having my feed flooded with practitioners, pagans and other polytheists using AI. Specifically deities like Brigid should never be offered AI in my opinion, it’s essentially a slap in the face.

AI generated spells aren’t shit, it’s what a computer assumes will work based off of what it can gather from internet trends and research. MAKE IT YOURSELF, ask a human for help anything but AI.

There is no place for Artificial Intelligence in these spaces.

Ever

by Meghan O'Rourke

Even now I can’t grasp “nothing” or “never.” They’re unholdable, unglobable, no map to nothing. Never? Never ever again to see you? An error, I aver. You’re never nothing, because nothing’s not a thing. I know death is absolute, forever, the guillotine — gutting — never to which we never say goodbye. But even as I think “forever” it goes “ever” and “ever” and “ever.” Ever after. I’m a thing that keeps on thinking. So I never see you is not a thing or think my mouth can ever. Aver: You’re not “nothing.” But neither are you something. Will I ever really get never? You’re gone. Nothing, never — ever.

i think it would be so silly goofy babygirl if the self-sacrificing hero tries to go out in a blaze of glory but it doesn't work and he has to live with himself and everything he's done <3

writing first drafts like

(describe the city here)

(and then the antagonist says something cool)

(the death trap looks scary)

(insert very romantic line. NOT CLICHE.)

you could not pay me to return to my childhood. or my teens. or my 20s. i'm all about the now. the now is great. the now has a long list of things that would have been beyond my ken when i was younger. nostalgia doesn't have a grip on me. i learn and grow every day. why would i want to return to ungrowth. a tree doesn't reminisce about being a seed~

maybe things were "simpler" when you were younger, or maybe things were just beyond your understanding. personally, i was aware that there was a lot i didn't know and couldn't do when i was younger, and it was just... frustrating. i look at childhood photos and i can see it in my eyes. "let's fast forward through the next 30 years. i'm over it."

and now i'm here. i look in the mirror and i see my younger self looking back at me, and she smiles, satisfied at last.

making an oc purely to put canon characters in Situations is an underappreciated art
